ah well. the view at blackfriars bridge is always the most gorgeous.
this is on the way out:

and on the way home.

mmhmmmm :D
indian takeout.
YUM.

update at 2309h:
we are -so- going to get really fat here.
1. indian takeout


2. really huge bowl of orange juice.

one after another. (while a really hot drunk party is going on in the room next to us!)

i finally bought narnia. there was a discount on account of it being national children's reading week or sthg. and therefore it cost me 6 pounds. yay :)

Здравствуйте!
damn russian is difficult! especially since it's so misleading where H is 'n' and P is 'r' sound. haha confused. but quite fun. considering i totally missed like 75% of the lesson and still am not too far behind. wow
До свидания!
(the only reason i know this one: 'Da sveedaneeya' is from watching Anastasia :)

i should probably change the title of my blog soon. there are no 'bright sunshiny days' in london! There are at most moments of bright sunshine. and then the rest is just gloom.

les misérables was quite enjoyable. i must probably read the book now that I've seen the musical (even if it's just to find out the name of the pretty girl who died.) Thing is. I don't understand the whole 'applaud after a great song even if someone's just died'. It just means that the audience isn't totally into the story and is instead appreciating the technical merits of the musical. It was just so strange. i mean there was hilarious bits where it's normal to applaud, but the sad bits don't exactly lend themselves to applause.

ok i've obsessed about that enough. ciao.

oh yeah.i'm actually facebookable now! :D amazing. LSE actually has like facebook. haha. anyway. night scene.

Hyde park is gorgeous. actually. it's the canards i love haha :) quack honk.


and this is the Albert Memorial from like across the road.


and mika hakkinen's reconstructed car at the science museum!


plus london has such fluffy clouds!

ah well. photo blogging is so much fun :D i've been whipping out my trusty camera at every turn. but it was too cold and windy today and it got our spirits down :/ cos we were just shivering a lot of the time. (notenoughclothes cold not toofingcold cold)

I'm happy that London has so many great museums and art galleries :) I live next to the Tate Modern, and I just went in today and it's gorgeous :) I love it. especially this

I'm actually starting to like this place a bit :)

London is a killer for walking! I've been here like 3 days and i haven't touched public transport --> just walking and walking and walking! and it's really cold windy. (ok. from a singaporean pov. i mean. we don't even get v strong wind unless it's a tropical storm!) Anyway. Thanks to the walking, i've got gorgeous photos :D


erm i think this is like around picadilly circus (i'm still quite crappy at remembering places :)


the strange occurrence of finding an obelisk in london


i love this photo :) i forget what you call a rainbow that encircles the sun.. v pretty :)


Bruce Almighty!!

ok. i've been v touristy. quite fun to just whip out the cam and have fun :D

i have nobody's skype! and noone's ever online! this sucks. add me la!!

Well. Today feels much better i guess :) still a bit anti social (to anyone from LSE reading this: I'm perfectly approachable! despite the blank/hostile looking face). well we went shopping a bit.. not much cos it's too bloody ex. and i realise that i like singapore after all! (oh no.) i have a new mobile number. so if you want to call it's 0044 77 22118884 I think :) i've got free incoming! but i think you all have to pay international calls heh.

In london. and i suddenly feel very alone. is that very bad? i'm v sad here. and i've beenhere all of one day.

i leave in nearly exactly 7 hours. there's an inexplicable sense of worry. maybe not inexplicable. i'm just nervous i guess! it'd help if there weresomeone else i really know in lse... ugh. help me! deep breaths aren't really helping tho. and i think i'm winding myself up even tho i'm sure it's going to be exciting and fun. it's like how i'm ok with heights if i'm distracted but n ot when i'm faced with silence and lots of time to contemplate falling and smashing on the ground :(

I can drive now :) But no car.

I have a stack of passport photos! but erm. they're all freaking ugly.

Haha. i love the 'cluck the chicken' widget :) I asked if i should be worried about going overseas and it said
'Think not Rooster Boy!" :)
ok. i'm very childish and naive. but heck. it's quite funny :)

All sunburnt!
Sentosa was v fun. but VERY expensive. ugh. and lots ofhot babes :) including kahli :p as many boys at siloso beach could attest to :p hahaha. but quite freaky. you'd know why if you watch the news i guess.. we were there. but we might as well not have been for all that we realised.
anyway. prob the most sun i'll see for a while then :)

ugh. i hate photos :( i always look so bad in them!!! and heh. i guess i better pile on the deodorant thingy cos there're sweat circles under my arms in the photos (which i must say are v disgusting but hardly my fault cos it was REALLY warm.) i don't have photoshop or i'll photoshop it off haha. too bad. anyway. here're the nicer ones... ask me for the others if you really want :)

It's only at social events like this where you realise that even tho you know quite a few very nice people, it's pretty difficult to move the conversation beyond the initial hug, hi and so where're you studying now. sigh. i used to think i was extroverted but i recently found out that the so-called extrovert is one who enjoys small talk. so i guess that rules me out... anyway. i'm leaving on 25th. i'm such a worry wart but ugh.i haven't packed. my mom's been bugging me. i haven't seen everyone i want to before i leave even tho i guess i'm coming back in december so most people (with a few excceptions :)) won't even have the time to miss me. sighhhhhhh. what if i hate london :(:(:(

UGH. Driving test tomorrow. i think i'm going to fail.

Awww this rocks :) i have a new 15" powerbook!!! :)




I'm very happy today :) maybe it's the (very little) alcohol :)
can you tell? :)
