MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

havent blogged in a while.. so since i have time today and i am in the kitchen of Lionel's hostel.. might as well do a little update abt the past week... 

today is Christmas.. going to have our own little Christmas dinner.. haha... with Lionel, Collen, Cheryl and 9 other of Cheryl's friends... only going to start preparing to cook etc in abt 10mins time.. 

13th Dec - had a fantastic christmas dinner with the peeps at Hampstead.. they are really amazing people & i am so going to miss their company!! FUN DAY!! unfortunately i had an exam the next day.. SIGHZ...
17th Dec - went to Westfield Shopping Centre with liming.. this place is HUGE.... but reminds me a lot like Ion in Singapore.. well cuz in SG, it is all shopping centers.. and you dont get a lot of these type of malls here in London where all the shops are in one facility.. later that evening, i headed over to Heathrow Airport to pick up epicflailer  who came up to London to see me! :D went for nando's for dinner.. 
18th Dec - began our shopping adventure in London with nat.. then watched Avatar in 3D in the afternoon with some of the peeps from my floor... after the movie, returned back to Hampstead to find our kitchen invaded by Malaysians... managed to chase them out of the kitchen.. a lot of hateful stares & glares.... but well, they were out.. they used our pots & pans without asking.. one guy even asked us 'where was our christmas spirit?'... well, were they going to offer us food? NO... they could have at least used one side of the kitchen and left the other side for us to use.. but NO.. they had to use the WHOLE kitchen.. one guy even slammed the door on us when he left.. 
pity i didnt get to say goodbye to Alex & Max.. sighz... 
19th Dec - nat went out with her friend.. so i stayed in the whole day.. saying good bye to those who were leaving tt day.. sighz.. sad sad day... loess left for home as well.. SAD SAD.. going to miss her... thibaud left in the morning but came back in the afternoon, poor fella.. cuz of the disruption in eurostar service, he couldnt go home.. and he was so excited.. but he did manage to go back home on Monday.. 
20th Dec - headed to Harrods with nat... then Zara, H&M..... shopping basically.. haha.. 
21st Dec - had fish & chips at London bridge.. then headed over to Borough Market.. i really do love Borough Market.. i love food places... haha... then went to watch the afternoon show of Mamma Mia... i didnt think it was as great as the film.. but it was enjoyable... watched Inglourious Basterds at  night.. :) 
22nd Dec - headed out to Covent Garden to do a little shopping... met up later with Liming & Lionel with the intention to ice skate at 4pm.. but well there went anymore tickets for 4pm.. so we got tickets for skating for a 10.30pm slot... I AM SORRY WHAT I MADE epicflailer GO THROUGH.. :( ... i did have fun.. it was my first time skating.. and i must say i did pretty well.. SORRY NAT!!! I REALLY HOPE YOU HAD FUN OVERALL! :s
23rd Dec - today was nat's last day in London... *sad* stayed in pretty much in the morning.. packing... sent her off to the airport.. SAD SAD SAD.... NAT I MISSING YOU ALREADY!!! DO TAKE CARE!!! I LOVE YOU!!!
headed over to London Bridge to stay with Liming for the night.. went for dinner with Lionel & Liming then took a little walk along River Thames... slept at around 3ish.. we got into bed at 1.45am.. but only slept at 3ish.. hah. cuz we were just talking.. :)
24th Dec - sent liming to the airport... went for Avenue Q with lionel.. i didnt really enjoy it that much. but ok... then rushed back to London Bridge to get food stuffs for the xmas dinner on Christmas day.. THIS WAS NO EASY FEAT... supermarkets were either closing or there was not enough food stuffs available.. but we managed.. Collen & Cheryl arrived at around 10ish.. Lionel & I were just finishing dinner.. haha.. watched Sweeney Todd before going to bed.. :))

parents are coming up tmr... gosh and i am going to Heathrow Airport again.. i am traveled so often to Heathrow but i never left London.. haha... 
okok.. done with my update.. time to start preparing food for dinner.. ta~

yayness!!!! exams are over.. i have just one essay to submit and i am done..... with sch here at least... going back home in less than 3 weeks... it is scary... and kinda sad.... lol....

and oh i have missed the feeling of not having exams... not having to make sure i set my alarm to wake up at a particular time.. haha.. only just got up abt 15mins ago... then turned on my lappie to update lj.... i havent done this in so long.. havent taken a shower yet.. havent brushed my teeth yet.. (a bit gross i know)... but well i wanna see if i can try to get back to bed...

what should i do today???
bbc tells me there would be snow later today.. and on fri & sat.. i really hope it does snow.. so maybe i'll go out later for a walk on my own in central london.. haha... do some photo taking as well.. dun really wanna stay in and waste my time doing nothing.. though i would love to, but i paid too much money to be doing nothing.. haha..



i'll do a slightly longer update later on.. now i just wanna laze in bed somemore..
haha.. till later!!!!

my roommate told me this.. she was having a conversation with one of the guys on our floor last night.. he seemed very interested in the guy i was dancing with the other night at the club.. he made a comment saying that 'nicole + clubbing' is a weird combination...
hmmz.. i kinda agree.. haha.. but well, at least i know how to have fun ok! lol..
i am going to sound him out later when i see him.. hahhha...

ok.. today i have self declared a free day... not going for class.. so i will stay in.. and get notes done up...

nat is coming up on the 18th.. YAY!!!!
my parents are coming up on the 26th... YAY YAY!!!!
there are still things to look forward to! :)

 just attended a bdae party for two friends on my floor.. it's their 18th birthday.. it was fun.. played pass the parcel.. first round was the normal one.. second round was the drinking & naughty tricks one.. 
it was fun. haha..
when i got the parcel the first time in round one, i got sweets... 
in round two, first time i got the parcel.. i had to arm wrestle a guy.. so i picked Daniel.. and obviously he won.. BUT THEN, i had a handicap.. so got to do it another time.. i got to use two hands. and i won.. haha.. so he had to drink up.. 
the next time i got the parcel, i am telling you it was a set up.. just before the music started played, penny  (one of the bdae girls) was asking me if i had a drink.. and i didnt have anymore since i finished my cup of champagne.. so she gave me a cup.. AND I GOT THE PARCEL.. set up!!! hahah.. well so i got the last layer, meaning i had to unwrap the final layer wrapping the parcel and do what i was supposed to do.. and i was supposed to down that cup of champagne using the drinking glasses (which was the parcel).. haha.. this was fun.. and i did manage it.. wait for a bit.. i will upload something when pictures do appear on facebook.. haha.. 
it was a fun evening.. went to the bar to get some cake. then took a shower and now i am laying on my bed... 

i had initially thought one of the guys who came was cute.. he was a friend of one of the bdae girls... i thought he was really charming larz.. ok charming, not cute.. but thinking abt it, and more looking at him, he isnt all that good looking after all.. hahah.. dunno what got into me.. i think it was the really nice mask he was holding.. lol.. 

went for STOMP earlier today.. AND IT WAS SO SO SO SO GOOD... it was really a fun thing to watch.. hahaha.. i really enjoyed it. worth my 20 pounds.. lol.. 

paid a visit to Bath & Stone Henge yesterday.. (literally paid a visit).. haha.. it was a good day.. but i didnt think it was worth the money i paid.. but it was a nice day.. could have been better.. but then again, could have been way worst. lol.. yes the positive thinking coming in.. never give up on that! 

okok.. now waiting for Devika to knock and watch criminal minds together.. 

till next time.. 

 well i just felt like posting this.. 

my lunch from this afternoon..bought this from Borough Market.. it wasnt cheap.. but it is pretty good.. not too spicy.. i like it! West Indian Chicken Curry with rice.. 

 

heading out to Bath & Stone Henge tmr.. more photos coming along.. 
and i am really tired for some reason.. and i need to wake up early tmr to catch the Bus at Baker's Street.. hope i catch the right bus and at the right time & place... *CROSS FINGERS*

so this week is reading week.. i almost have the whole week free.. except for one 3hr lecture on tues... 
i refuse to do work today.. so i will update.. then watch criminal minds with devika! :)
winter is around the corner.. now the days are shorter.. by 5pm in the late afternoon, the sun has already set.. tt totally screws up my body clock and my perception of time.. haha.. i get hungry earlier at like 5.30 or 6pm ish.. then i check my watch, and see it is too early for dinner.. I WILL MANAGE THIS.. hahah...

i wanna update on this past month... or at least the stuff that has happened and i wanna rmb.. lol..

OH ALEX IS BEING MEAN!!! i wonder if he will read this.. BUT ANYWAYS HE IS BEING REALLY REALLY MEAN... 
HE MANAGED TO FIND OUT TT I HAVE AN LJ.. cuz i mentioned it before on my twitter.. i was so confident tt he wouldnt be able to find out my lj nick... BUT I WAS WRONG.. HE MANAGED TO DO TT using ljseek.. I DIDNT KNOW TT EVEN EXISTED... 
okok.. then i casually mentioned tt all the incriminating posts (if there even are any.. haha) are locked for either myself to read or for pple on my flist to read.. HE ATTEMPTED TO TRY TO CRACK TT.. THANK GOODNESS HE WASNT SUCCESSFUL! hahha.. 
so his reward for finding out my lj nick.. is some ben & jerry's ice cream.. 

ahha.. B&J was on promo.. buy one get one free.. so i got 2 pints for 3.99 pounds.. quite cheap right?! 

he made breakfast for me this morning.. Big English Breakfast.. 2 fried eggs, fried tomatoes, fried mushrooms.. BACON (YUM!!!).. and toast.. it is the most i have had for breakfast in a long while.. haha.. might explain why i am not hungry yet (the time now is 2.40pm in the afternoon).. haha.. 
skyped my parents earlier on.. got a couple more recipes to cook chicken.. haha..
going to make rice omelete (or rice wrapped in omelete) for dinner.. 

yes i have picked up cooking.. bought oyster sauce a couple of weeks back.. so i am comign round to cook my own meals.. haha. instead of just putting stuff in the oven or microwave or even getting take outs.. ahaha.. 
made chicken with onions in oyster sauce the other day.. kinda screwed it up by adding too much water. but it tasted alright still.. 
had broccoli with mushrooms in oyster sauce last night for dinner. haha.. yes most of the things i cook will have oyster sauce.. :p

day 2 in London:

 ok this isnt the entry i wanted to update for the past month... I PROCRASTINATE... 
updating my life here takes a lot of effort... 

lemme share what happened at the bar earlier on.. 
tonight was Oktoberfest.. it was really lousy.. hahaha... 
so we went down to the bar.. i didnt get anything to drink... and i have totally lost my voice from coughing.. speaking is so hard.. so i resort to typing stuff i want to say and showing it to my friends for them to read.. 

me: i think i wont talk cuz of my voice. (no voice at all) -- i showed this to the pple around me.. 
alex (playful as he is, he also decided to type on his iphone): i wont talk to you either since you arent talking to me.. 
me: fine be that way. 
alex: bitch <<i think he picked this up cuz devika was calling me a bitch the other night and i called her a slut.. haha>>
me: well lionel wont talk to you either! (alex has this obsession with lionel.. and he doesnt know lionel.. i will explain this later below)
alex: haha.. i have his number.. 
me: i dont believe you.. but i have his singapore number! 
alex: i'll get his number from you phone and call him in singapore... 
me: YOU STALKER!!!
alex: Yes i am... 

haha.. so yes alex has this total obsession with lionel.. and he doesnt even know know lionel.. 
he has spoken to lionel before using my msn.. alex was acting as me and trying to convince lionel to go clubbing.. which is not like me.. so yes, alex was so amused tt he thinks he managed to fool lionel.. lol.. 
everytime i am texting, he would ask 'is that lionel?'... he thinks there is something going on between me & lionel but there obviously isnt anything.. he used my phone to text lionel before as well.. thank goodness it was nothing bad.. hahaha... 

life's good so far.. was up at brighton & windsor last weekend.. OK I WILL UPLOAD SOME PHOTOS OF SOMETHING TONIGHT... HAHHAH...

it's been two weeks since i moved in here.
had classes this past week.. or at least 3 days worth of classes.. haha..

week 1
monday: had my first lecture with KCL.. the module coordinator was a nice person.. however the lecturer who came in to give the lecture next wasnt all tt great.. he talked so quickly.. this is a year 2 module (for KCL side mapped to a year 3 module NUS side).. STRESS ARHZ!!!! hahah... the amount of content in the lectures.. :(
had dinner at lionel's hostel..

tuesday: i had my second lecture.. essentials of embryology.. it was an interesting lecture.. i mean i enjoyed the content of it. but some of the terminologies used are so foreign.. need to find time to pick up the textbook and give it a good read..
later in the evening, wanted to go to the kitchen to get some ham to eat.. then devika told alex tt i was just picking ham to eat. then alex made sure i sat down and ate one strip of bearded chicken.. i thought he wanted me to each one third.. since he cut them up.. but no, he made sure i ate the whole strip.. and he was staring to the extent it made me feel uncomfortable. haha.. but he was nice larz.. free food! :p

wed: I HAD NO SCHOOL TODAY... haha.. so i went to Buckingham Palace to see the changing of guards & also to visit the State Rooms.. DAMN NICE!!!!!! quite unfortunately, photos werent allowed in the Palace.. you guys have to just take my word for it.. i will get around to uploading photos of outside the palace.. ahahha... after that, lionel, his three other friends & myself walked over to leicester square to visit chinatown.. after that had really lousy & expensive fish & chips for dinner.. then made it back to hostel.. i cannot rmb what we did tt night.. hahaha..

thursday: went over to lionel & liming's hostel for lunch.. microwave-able lunch.. then headed over to lectures together.. oh devika came over to my room to talk before i left for lionel's place..
had an awesome lecture in the afternoon.. the lecturer was GREAT!! i mean he really was.. he was so enthusiastic about his work.. he wasnt afraid to show it.. i enjoyed tt lecture a lot.. so after the lecture, he went up to speak to him.. cuz we were exchange students & needed an alternative assessment since we were leaving in dec.. guess what? WE DUN HAVE A FINAL WRITTEN EXAM!!! haha.. just two reports due.. :D
he was sharing with us about some of the concepts in Alice in Wonderland which he had enjoyed a lot.. haha.. you could see the excitement on his face!!! he was so excited to talk about it.. lol..
so after that, went to lionel's room to crash for a bit till after peak hour.. didnt want to pay the extra charge for peak hour..

friday: didnt have school again today.. so i went to Ikea with lionel & liming.. had swedish meatballs & haddock for lunch.. then came back to hostel.. joined the peeps in going to sainsbury to buy stuff for the mexican dinner we were going to have tt night.. haha.. it was a fun evening.. after dinner, headed out to Finchley Road for a walk.. had wanted to go to a bar nearby but tibo didnt have his ID.. so we couldnt do tt. then we headed over to hampstead instead.. two girls in our group had too much to drink.. i had this drink called Key West Cooler which looked really pretty.. three layers: Green (modori), Orange (Pineapple juice & Archers), Red (Cranberry juice & malibu)... also did an apple sourz shot.. came back to residence after that, talked a bit.. then i went back to my room & watched one epi of Leverage.. then went to bed..

saturday: today i think i am moving into Loess' room.. cuz they dun allow me to keep my room as it is for the same price i am paying.. then i dun want someone new new to come into my room now.. i am at this state of mind where i cannot accept new things.. haha..
