I'm ill

Non-stop coughing and sneezing have made me so depressed these few days. Well, (luckily) I'm not the only one who is sick. *quite happy* Thousands of people (I suppose) in the university are ill. Seriously.. No kidding!! During lectures, sounds of coughing and sneezing from every corner are quite annoying.. So, I tried my best not to cough nor sneeze.  Literally everywhere in the university you can hear people coughing or sneezing. Haha.

Anyway, I will still be going to Lake District this morning.Yea, I mean 'this morning'. I should be sleeping now as I have to wake up at 5.30am later or else I will miss the coach. But, my clothes are still in the tumble dryer, and I am still looking for a new look for my blog. Also, I think I am feeling somehow over-excited thinking about going to Lake District. So I can't sleep... Hehe.

That's student life.. isn't it? (well, I know many will not agree with me!)

Bi Bi Bo Bo Bi Bo Bo~

I'm back from Liverpool!

Sadly, I caught a cold,

something that has never happened to me in Malaysia (obviously),

I have only 'caught the heat'. 

In Malaysia,

'What kind of stupid weather is this?'

'Why isn't there any wind?!!'

'How I wish I am in UK.'

In UK,

'Shit, stupid strong wind when it's raining?!!'

'AAAA CHEEWWW!!!'

Please.. I want to recover as soon as possible! Please!

I am really desperate to go to Lake District this coming Saturday. Another busy weekend~

Whilst I should be doing tutorial

I miss my family!! Dad, Mum, sisters and especially my nephew!!

I have not been sleeping earlier than 12am everyday since I arrived in Manchester. I feel so tired everyday but just fail to get over it everytime. I told myself many many times that I should really get a good rest and do my tutorials, but... I guess it's just because I am Flora...

Life has been great in Manchester. I have already been to two places since I got back to Manchester. Cheshire Oak for shopping trip and Pleasure Beach Blackpool. Blackpool is supposed to be a theme park outing but it just wasn't one for the non-thrill-seeker like me. So I ended up carrying bags and taking photos. I am proud to admit that I hate roller coaster rides and anything to do with speed and 'swinging your head up and down and left and right'. I really would not mind waiting and carrying bags and taking photos. It feels much better.

But, at least, I did one thing, the only thing I always do in theme parks, - going on the merry-go-round. I guess that is the only thing that fascinates me. The carousel was huge!! And the horses were moving faster than any other I have ever seen. I nearly retreated. Thanks to my dear for encouraging me and I really enjoyed it. What's wrong with me with rides??? (photos will be uploaded soon)

Straight after Blackpool trip, May June came to visit us. We missed each other too much and talked until midnight everyday and of course, I didn't get enough rest again. Anyway, it's great meeting up with her again. I really miss those days when she was still in Manchester, in Dalton Ellis Hall, with Jessica.

Dear and I are going to Liverpool tomorrow!! Going to stay over at May June's place and spend our weekend there. Life's great with good friends, forever.

Loving It

First of all,

I would really like to thank my parents.

Secondly, 

I want to thank Gucci.

But most of all, 

thank you so much my beloved dear, 

for surprising me with it.

I got the perfumed lotion as a free gift. And I really love the bag. And of course, the perfume! 

A New Year, A New Semester

I'm back in Manchester! I'm loving the weather here, loving the university's internet speed, loving some of my lovely coursemates, loving the life going back to uni learning new things... Most importantly, I love the fact that I can see my dearest everyday, talk to him and go shopping together, especially after the three months of being apart.

The first day of uni was all right, apart from waiting for the bloody stagecoach bus that came so late which made me had to run all the way from the bus stop where I got off at to Renold Building. What made it much worse is that it was drizzling!

And so, I did not take the bus on the second day and third day. Instead I walked to the campus which took me about half an hour. While walking, I felt like those little kids anticipating to go to school. The chilly weather made it so much better to walk. The feeling is quite good actually and I enjoyed it. Imagine walking in Malaysia for half an hour! Also, I get to tone my legs!! I have to get rid of the fat I gained when I was back in Miri after eating so much Mum's cooking.

No lectures for the first two days, instead we attended the Career and Professional Development Programme where managers and staffs from several big companies such as BP, Solvay, Cargill and Sabic International came in to give us talks and trainings on how to write good CV's, covering letter, how to perform well during interviews, assessment centres and make good presentations. No doubt our university's career service has won the best uni career service award in the whole UK for five consecutive years! I have heard about how good they were before coming here, and they really are!

I got a few freebies from the programme:-

Rainbow spring from Sabic

H2O powered clock from BP, no electricity, no battery

just add water into the two transparent containers

got this prize from BP for getting first class! I have to keep it up!

Bought something which I think is special:

From now on, I can cook perfect half boiled egg!

I went to the city centre and saw policewomen on horses. Even though it's not the first time I see police riding horses, I still felt excited! So the 'sakai' me took a few pictures of them. The horses were big!

policewomen this time

But there are always horse poops around! So be careful when walking.

That's all. Bye. Off to uni now!
