UK INTERVIEW/VISIT

Haha so I'm blogging this post on the plane home... Enjoy!

9th Jan - 18 Jan
Flew back to UK for a med sch interview with imperial college... Crashed at Anais's place back in Portsmouth. Was like coming back to an old haunt. Familiar with almost everything back there. Was snowing alot too! Everywhere was covered in snow! Haha



Sales everywhere though... Ended up shopping alot... Haha






Went up to London on the 12th for the interview... Dunno how I'll do but I have a feeling I screwed it up... Just the ethics question I think I answered it pretty well. After that was shopping! First up was at harrolds for Ivy's LV bag... -_-||| then more shopping at zara! Sales back in sg can't even compare to the sales here man... £6.99 for each tshirt... Woot!








Friday I took a train down to Brighton with my bike! Smart move to do so cos it made going from point to point much much faster, especially when time is of the essence in a day trip. Haha









The little pic of 2 police officers kissing is something that made Brighton into a well known gay/lesbian/bisexual/transexual town. I only cycled through that part of town when there was still daylight... Dun dare to go when the sun set... Lol





Sat went up to Bristol with my bike again. Wise decision again cos the iconic Clifton suspension bridge was seriously way too far away and I had to hike a frigging steep hill along te way...









Halfway up the steep slope... :S












Sun went to Anais's bf place for a couple of hours... Parked my bike downstairs within sight from the window. Checked it was there abt 2-3hrs before I came down to cycle home. Stunned that the chain had been broken and my bike stolen... T.T sad and angry at myself for not bringing it up to the house. Sigh. This is a tribute to u dear bike. U served me well though my ass still aches cos I haven't been cycling for awhile now...



Had dinner at a spanish place... Lucky us they were having an all u can eat buffet for £10!!! Haven't had tapas before so it was nice trying something new. Food was NICE!!!!!!!



Round 1!





Fried potatoes in spicy tomato sauce


Calamari


Fish





Spanish omlette! Yum!



Must try chicken wings!!! NICE!!!



Mushrooms fried in garlic oil



Round 2!






Apple pie!



Dark chocolate and hazelnut cake

Oh wells... Gonna miss UK man...

IPHONE

WOW! it's been almost 2 months since I last blogged... Started working at A-STAR for about 1.5 months... Work is a blast and my colleagues are whacky and zany, always cracking jokes and doing lame shit...

Still trying to study at the same time for my MCAT exam due in March... Hope I get more interviews for med school though... So far it's only Manchester and Imperial Collage... Which I have to fly over to UK to do the imperial interview... Luckily there's a regional office here in sg for the Manchester one... Warwick and Southampton left to reply... Nerve wrecking everytime you read your email... Never know what they may send you... Rejection or offer for interview... I hope the latter...

Watched a couple of movies... 2012 which was not bad. Anyone wanna start a weekend project with me to build an ark! Wahahaha yeah and ninja assassin which had lots of action and red paint/blood haha. And rain probably can't speak muck English so he said very few lines... Also watched storm warriors which SUXXXXXXXX like fuck man! Story can be summed up in 5 mins... Aaron spoke less than 10 lines even though he's the main character... Waste of time and money... Avatar thou was GOOOOOD!!! Graphic-wise and storyline... Just awesome... Although some scenes just had too much neon lights... Haha

Haha yeah so anyways, got myself an iPhone 3GS 32GB! kick ass man! Wooooo timed it so nicely when all the 3 telcos were slashing their prices haha. This baby is some powerful shit man... Especially the apps! Right now I'm blogging this post via iPhone! Haha


Oh wells merry Xmas and a happy new year to all!

after the tram ride... we went to walk the fright trail... ended up more in laughter than frights i must say... cos i was walking around with my mask on and we caught up to the group ahead of us... then they bumped into me cos they were taking photos with some stuff... so they said sorry and turned around and saw me and screamed! hahaha omg... so damn funny... i was holding my laughter in man...

CRACK MY NECK!

*CRACK CRACK CRACK* haha yea so today i went to visit a chiropractor at central for my neck ache which i've been having since i got back from UK... amazing what he can do with just a few weird twisting and turning of the body to get the spine back to alignment... NELSON! crack my neck for me!!! hahaha but only after u have like 3 yrs experience... LOL somehow my spine at C7 position was out of place... dunno how that happened though... but i feel much better now though not completely cured... but still much much better... i just dun understand how it works... its like just twisting the spine here and there then the spine will just fall right back into place... MAGIC! haha oh wells... finally sent my paper draft to my supervisor to have a read through... hope i can publish my first paper soon!

BACK! HOME SWEAT HOME!

went to take the UKCAT in london on 23rd... got barred from entering cos i didnt bring my passport and they rejected my driving licence though they stated that they accepted driving licences as a form of ID... just that there was invisible print stating only UK or EU driving licences are allowed... my like HOW THE FUCK CAN I SEE INVISIBLE PRINT? FUCKING POLICY... every ID on me clearly states that i am who i am... morons... to make things worse, my phone was pms-ing... every few minutes it goes and reset itself... calling was a pain in the ass... so all my plans for that day was ruined... so i decided to take the earlier coach back and not to stay in that depressing place... i couldn't even get a refund and can't reschedule the test... ASSHOLES! 60 pounds GONE not including the transport and lunch money... -___-ZZZ

went to heathrow on 24th and spent the night at the hotel... 25th morning went to check in my bags... omg im lucky not to get charged for having overweight bags of 30kg... :S haha oh wells... too much books n notes... lol

26th reached back Singapore... home sweat home... suddenly i miss UK all of a sudden... especially the weather... i swear i was gonna melt the moment i stepped out of the airport... haha didn't sleep a wink on the flight home... movie marathon! haha and still managed to drive back home!

28th went to meet up with nel n heman... no more hunting gang... sad... walked around the NEW orchard road... only 2 new buildings thou... ion and orchard central... yea and we saw Xia Xue at ion... WOW she is SHORT! with 5+inch heels too! hahaha anyways we ended up watching this R21 korean show... "THANK YOU VERY MUCH" HEMAN -_-ZZZ ok in one sentence... it is the korean version of brokeback mountain... i'll never forgive you for burning those images into my cornea heman!!! AND THE ACTRESS WASN'T HOT AT ALL!!! the fuck scenes were so damn fake too... the actor's cock was either deformed and out of place at his thighs or the actress's pussy was somewhere near her hip bone... -_- hahaha

29th went to take the UKCAT at international plaza... could have done it better if the fag next to me wasn't hammering on the keyboard like a mad monkey... haha anyways i had the score immediately... average of 675/900... 75% i hope its enough to get me into medicine... :S had supper with nel, heman, jay, jz and hr... drove to lao pa sat... haha chatted as always about army and navy stuff... hahaha nel's leaving for perth tmr... so damn fast... once again our gang isnt at full strength... haha

wonder what the future holds in store for me... what this next year will be like... where my 2010 will be spent and what will i be doing... phd or medicine... sg?uk?hk?aussie? sigh so many questions but no real answers...

my whole life has been nothing but pleasure and leisure with the occassional mugging season... minimal work experience, plenty of studying... now looking back... i envy the schooling kids alot now... for them its just finishing primary school, finish secondary school, go into jc or poly and then go into uni... life for me now is like going into the deep end of the swimming pool... can i swim back to the wading pool please? i wanna be a student again~
