Windermere trip..

1st time taking a long journey train from glasgow to windermere,lake district situated at the northwest england..

yay!!meeting siewsing and sing yee after a year..

the next to arrive were ahguan and glen, alice and boonhui..:)

went to buy groceries in ASDA..

had to rush as the edinburgh gang were reaching soon followed by the dundee gang; so we split into the "barbeque group" and "breakfast group" and started hunting for all the things we need as fast as possible..

a picture does say a thousand words...

look closely at the above pic..besides the two of us happily carrying the BEER; alice was carrying 30 eggs; ahkat and siew sing paying; b.hui and ahguan still taking things at the back;1 angmoh looking at us..lol!!!

that was the 1st time that i bought things in such speed and end up with SOO MANY THINGS..

this was onli half of wat we bought..oops..haha!!the cashier was shocked and kept on laughing and asked us hw many ppl we have etc..

soooooo..finally after picking up the rest, our trip/reunion was complete with the 15 of us..it FELT GREAT TO SEE EVERYONE AGAIN!!!!!!basically we spent the nite laughing and toking non-stop while eating..:)

the next day..
car ride around the lake district..

this was at St. Oswald's Churchyard, Grasmere..where william wordsworth, the famous poet was buried here (no idea who he was, but he should be quite famous larr cos his home and the graveyard were among the tourist attractions..)

went to castlerigg stone circle, keswick after that..

The circle was probably constructed around 3200 BC (Late Neolitic), making it one of the earliest stone circles in Britain and possibly Europe, too.

Take 1: glen purposely blocked siew sing and sing yee (a weird ahpek with hood stood behind..:P)

Take 2: kena marah by our big sister sing yee..

Take 3: finally ends up with pangsai pose..:P

more ppl with the pose..haha..

ooiii.....rili shitting??!!!

all guys proudly present their HOODS...except ps..

the wind was so strong that our hair was blowing in different directions..it was sooo cold that we decided to hug each other..

whereas these 2 prefer to hug THE ROCK??!!

after that..had our lunch at the white horse inn..

while waiting for our meals..

we played the super stressful game..take turns filling alphabets to form a word..

TEAM A..discussing strategy in a very serious manner..

whereas team B were hao-lianly happily posing with the victory sign.. obviously u know who won..

quote from siew sing: take it easy lah guys...its only a game..relax.....wahaha!!

the next destination was the waterfall..

on the way to the waterfall..

nice scenery..

at the waterfall...KUCHINGITES!!:)

the semenanjung ppl(eh..mana kok hooi??)...tak sempat to take the swkian ppl cos too many ppl were waiting to snap pics at that spot..kesian alice and sing yee..:p

AT NITE...

the long-awaited BARBEQUE!!!
1st and probably the onli time we had barbeque in WINTER...wow..the weather was super cold..

some of us din wear our winter jacket..so we were practically trembling and busy barbeque-ing at the same time...haha..bt it was rili fun..

the food was finger-licking good...very very delicious!!!!!

satisfied faces..

game session at nite..with beer and unfinished food as punishment..wahahaha..was laughing so much with the crazy ppl around..sparks were everywhere (especially betw tg and ss)..hahaha...

it snowed heavily at nite..and we enjoyed ourselves having a snowfight attacking each other..

the next day..

SNOW!!this was taken outside the caravans we stayed..

went for the Windermere lake cruises

titanic...look hw happy they were!!

all the camera-sensitive ppl...everyone will automatically squeeze together within seconds whenever we saw a camera aiming at us..

reached bowness, a very nice small town..had lunch there and a quick walk around the town..

not long after that..we sent yee leng and kokhooi to the train station..

another funny game session at nite..played mafia with many professional killers around..gt confused cos everyone could tipu very well...wahlaooo..

time flies...

and it was our time to leave windermere..whereas the rest left 2 hrs later..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

about a month ago..

we experienced yet another snow in glasgow..

sad to say..it might be the last time we see snow in glasgow..

the scene taken from my window..

not long after that..we went down to take pics..

and soon....it'll be SPRING!!!

look how beautiful the sky is~~~~~~

its ironic that ever since i've been here..i've noticed so many things that i'd probably ignored in the past..

the sight of the blue sky..green grass...flowers starting to bloom again..and SUNLIGHT..

i'd learned to slow down my pace to look hw beautiful all this is..

as cliche as it may sound..im treasuring every moment here.. :)

HAPPY belated BIRTHDAY sue choo!!oops..:p

^-^
oops..i looked through my posts..and there were a few tat were delayed for quite some time..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

18th feb nite..

we went to tiger-tiger for the pre-celebration of sue choo's birthday..

Housemates..

as usual..we took a lot of pictures..

the place was awesome..we were the only customers there and we could happily take pics at every corner we want..

i had duck spring rolls, salmon, and toffee with ice-cream..hiakz..coincidentally everything i ordered that nite was absolutely delicious!!*drool* when i think bout it..:)))
(dun congratulate me for my great memory..actually i kinda forgot bout wat i've eaten..luckily i wrote bout it a mth ago)

with the "syok sendiri" residents of J5..

with the birthday gal..phew witt..berseri-seri ar miss chong!!

the mirror reflection using liping's camera..im loving this!!

after that we met up with our special guest..

pun and the birthday girl..*ahem* bagai pinang dibelah dua..:P

lol..some of them came to our house to continue chatting..

The next day..

we wanted to give a surprise to sc..
bt half way preparing the food, received sms from pun saying that they were on the way bek..

*shocked +panicking*..

calling everybody to speed up..

sc came bek n saw us preparing the "eclairs" dessert..so we said we saja felt like eating it and thus preparing it..

dahlah the lame excuse..the eclairs din turn out to be wat it was supposed to be..i go pandai-pandai said sth like..nvm..only we noe hw the real thing looks like...

then kiampak choo started saying "wat?only we noe..means gt other ppl cming isit?isit??isit??!!"

ish....feels like hitting myself..everyone else tried covering up..haha..pun tried to pull her out..

"ooooo..so ur job is to distract me?wahahahah.." omg.....rili feel like punching her...

anyway..after that..everyone came in when she went bathing..

despite the slight failure of surprising her...

the party turned out to be a success..

while preparing..
