26th went to have breakfast at some pastry shop... 2 pounds plus... went to the uni to get my education certs checked but my registration form hasn't been printed out yet... so i had to go back on monday to do so... wtf... so after that my dad and i went to hsbc to get my uk debit card... got the card but not the pin... sianz... then i went to deposit 500 pounds into my account... should last me 1 to 2 months ba... i hope... haha then we tried to get a sim card but it requires my account pin code... fark... haha oh wells... explored the place abit then had lunch at an aussie bar... food was kinda cheap... 4 pounds or so...
