Week 3!

It has been 3weekds since i arrived. Getting quite busy already with all the assignments and courseworks to do but no worries i'll still update the blog!

1st of all i joined the Malaysian society here and got to know all the other Malaysians here...i was the only undergraduate. That means i'm the youngest malaysian here as well.

HARI RAYA CELEBRATION! the 1st time i actually celebrate hari raya....

Thaaaats me right behind! The others are malaysians...no leng lui...i'm dissapointed.



Saya memakai baju "England". Saya duduk disebelah abang hansem yang memakai cermin mata & baju biru dan juga abang yang memakai cermin mata & baju merah. Saya perlu cakap bahasa melayu disana...lebih senang difahami.


Saya sedang makan biri-biri/kambing. ARGH!..back to english...easier...u can actually see my veins next to my forehead...cool eh. By the way here's a question... What did you think that i thought about the lamb? choose 1 answer only.

a) Freakin tasty..finger licking good!!!
b) I think my cooking's much better....
c) Tastes like lamb
d) Couldn't taste it at all
e) Its not actually lamb..some other meat






wah lau you should try the meat out urself and see....seriously...








e) "Its actually not LAMB!!! its some other meat" is NOT the answer....





the real answer is...








The Lamb freakin tough i tried using a knife n fork but it broke...the 3 fork thing got stuck in the lamb. So tried the old fashion way...hands...still cannot...in the end i give up...didn't eat the lamb at all..so..the answer is
d) Couldn't taste it at all!!!

freaking hungry so i had other malaysian dishes instead...nasi lemak..beef rendang...ketupat...satay..etc etc. For some reason malaysian food here tastes much better than the ones at home...


LAST WEEKEND...SUNDAY!!!

HOHOHO! my mega 3pieces of steak + wedges. SOoooooooooooooooo nice!

Anyway it was a Sunday and what do we do on Sundays in England??? watch football and more football of course! there's really nothing else to do btw...so might as well watch a match...went down to the bar about 30min before the MU-Liv match started and the place was already jam packed! I'm not a fan of either team neither MU nor Liv..so i dont really care who wins...i support Arsenal btw

The bar filled with people.

The lineup for the MU team bfore the match starts. I took this pic when i was standing...so its really tiring to stand and watch throughout the entire 2hours of a match so i went near the pool table..to be precise..behind the pool table and got a seat there. SUDDENLY!!! this fella came out of nowhere and sat on the pool table......sitting on the pool table is not a problem...the problem is that he's....BLOCKING MY VIEW!!!

.

.

.

See see told u...how to see from this angle you tell me...he's blocking 50% of the screen....i could ask him to move but i was feeling nice that day...give him chance...so i tried something else instead....as the famous saying goes....

IF YOU CANT BEAT THEM..........

This is the ITBOX. Stands for Intellectual Box. What does it do? How does it work? simple...just slide 0.50p down and you can play a game. The ITBOX asks you all kinds of questions depending on which Main Topic you choose for example...Movies,Sports,Places,Science..etc etc. Why do we waste 0.50p just to answer questions? to win money of course! i won 2pounds from it..that means i made 1.50pounds..yay! thx 2 my friends actually. All the questions all relate to uk i cant answer anything at all...definitely not gonna play bymyself.

Sunday is for Sleeping

Its a lovely Sunday morning, the birds are chirping in the trees, bright sunshine, cool nice breeze, and a calm and peaceful atmosphere....BUT EVERYONE ELSE IS SLEEPING!!! all nursing their hangovers they got from saturday night fever...except for 1 fella....me.. i didn't drink much at all..so i'm the only ok 1 here. Decided to take a walk to town since i couldn't do anything with anyone here anyway. Got dressed and headed towards town!....






I took the mini road to Lancaster City...its a cycling track by the way...so yeah..didn't have a bike so i walked.












FINALLY ARRIVED!!! took me 40min to reach the CITY!!! freakin tired. LANCASTER CITY.













Decided to stop for awhile to catch my breath at the same time thinking where to head to next...Where do u think i headed to??? I went left...to the Castle/Priory. If i was a girl i would've probably headed right instead but i'm not a girl so i went left.










so u couldnt see where i was goin from d previous pic...














LANCASTER CASTLE!!! freakin huge...look at the ppl down there..so small..even from my distance i couldn't take the whole view of the castle...to tall n big...this is just the side door i think. Its a giant castle wall to protect invaders from getting in...just like Castle Defence.











Took a step back and took a picture! friendly ppl helped me with this shot...I couldn;'t get into the castle as it was closed.



















This is Lancaster Museum! didn't go in as i would've needed to pay 2 get in...didn;t even bother to check how much as i know i wouldn't even wanna go in.










Had a free burger for lunch coz i had a free voucher..and no..its not McD's...its some pub burger.. On the way back i took a shortcut back..this time i have to go through a farm. I touched a sheep! the right 1. Feels soft like a pillow. I think its soft coz it doesnt get proper exercise so its quite fat.







Then i stumbled upon 3 cows who were looking at me really closely. Guess which cow i touched!...from left is Moo, middle is Baa, and right is Oink. Well who could it be?
Clue: the cleanest lookin 1.














So u couldn't see the answer again.....















I touched MOO!.... really!................ for those who got it right u get extra entertainment just by scrolling further down for the JOKE OF THE DAY!!! for those who guessed wrong...just try guessing the answer again till u get the right 1.













JOKE OF THE DAY!!!









Took a pic of the prices of petrol here in uk. Diesel is more expensive compared to the usual unleaded that we use for our cars. IT costs 87.9pence for 1 litre of petrol...thats equivalent to 87.9 x 7 = RM6+++ just for 1 litre..in malaysia its about RM2-3 for 1 litre.












And as i was looking around there.....i saw this













LOWEST PETROL PRICES!!! GUARANTEED!!! how ironic.
JOKE OF THE DAY!!! AHAHAHA! no leh not funny also.










Took 1hour to reach back coz i lepak around touch cow touch sheep see petrol price....

CheerS!

sick....

Geez...caught the freshers flu. It's called the freshers flu because fresher students tend to neglect their diet and eat all kinds of unhealthy food as they are away from home and also because they;'re not used to the weather here. Woke up this morning to find i had Flu + Fever. I had a sandwhich for breakfast and went to attend lectures. Came back shattered and came online to seek some help from those who were online. Fortunately i found this lovely friend starting with M who gave me quite a few handy tips such as...not to eat oily food,fried stuff and spicy stuff, to tackle my sickness....peiness and suggested that i cook porridge!. I didn't know how to cook porridge so the tips given was....add 1/4 rice...3/4 water and leave to boil until it becomes porridge! so simple. I didn;t want to eat plain porridge so i added some carrots and lettuce in as well.

Went to the supermarket to get some ingredients as nearly everything is out of stock in my cupboard. This is what i got.....




ID cards there to prove that this is a valid picture and to prevent ppl from stealing my pic.
















Just for your info!












After 15min the porridge looks alright and i poured away some water as it was overflowing the pot. Covered the top and went to talk to my friend.

Came back after 15min..totally forgot that i was cooking porridge...opened the lid and all i saw was.......RICE......rice!....as the malay saying goes.."Bubur sudah menjadi nasi". I knew i shouldn't have thrown some water away. SO anyway here it is...my SUPER MEGA ULTRA PLAIN RICE WITH CARROTS N LETTUCE.

Top view. Doesn't look very appetizing

Did i mention that i overcooked?

After taking a few spoons i couldn't take it anymore...i added tomato ketchup and forced myself to finish it. The morale of this story is to follow instructions to the point 100%.

Woke up this morning to find everything sooooo quiet. Shops are closed. People are still in bed nursing their hangovers. Its already 11am. Decided to kill some time by cooking something different. After 30min i came out with this.....








FISH AND CHIPS! fish and potato wedges but still the same as chips anyway.








freakin full now....

All the way down there are cows and sheeps.














The moon at night. Shines brighter than the sun in UK.

CROSS DRESS NIGHT!!!

As the title suggests....guys dress up as girls...girls the other way round as simple as that. Pics pics pics. It was almost time to go to the bar for the party. I was on the way to the kitchen to do something when.....




1st person i met on the way to the kitchen is this guy with the pink feather thing is Michael. What kinda girl is this man...i wouldn't dig him/her if he was a girl....


2nd guy i met was standing outside the kitchen door... it was my neighbour. This is Ben. He's a super joker. Wouldn't dig him either if he was a girl....

Went into the kitchen and guess who i saw! its Stan...i might dig him/her if he was a girl.



After a minute or so there were more ppl inside the kitchen. We gotta eat our dinner 1st before heading off later.

At the bar just about 5min walk away. 3 lovely girls sitting opposite me.

2 lovely guys/girl sitting next to me.

I got this from the waiter. It says..."Put It On Before You Get It On"

Thats Claire my sifu who tought me most of the things around here and she was also the one who provided me with my lovely outfit.

And the moment you've all been waiting 4....


considering the fact i didn't do my hair and didn't have makeup on its actually not bad,..

Washed out

1st of all the template of this blog has been changed due to numerous complaints from everyone...EVERYONE. So i'll just make do with this simple yet super chun template for my blog.
It was Bar Crawl night yesterday. Organised by the university we had to visit all the bars in town which totals up to 5 bars. There are alot of difference compared to the bars in malaysia and uk. 1st of all the bars in Malaysia contains.....
Con's of bars in Malaysia.
1. SMOKE...THE AIR YOU BREATH IN IS SMOKE
2. Toilets stink like someone's foot...yeah you know who you are. Starts with an N...
3. Rubbish everywhere. Filthy.
4. Drunkards which makes the place quite dangerous.
5. Music's crap most of the time.

Pro's of bars in Malaysia.
1. CHEAPer than uk of COURSE.
2. There'r Malaysian ppl!
3. They sell other things besides booze.
4. ...err cant think right now...sry if i missed out something yeah.

Con's of bars in UK
1. The only thing they sell is booze.
2. Everything costs 7 times more then in malaysia...$$$$$$$
3. The queue is super long.
4. No other asians around...ASIANS...not only chinese but indians,malays of course coz they're not allowed 2 drink,jap,korean..etc etc...

Pro's of bars in UK
1. SUPER DUPER FRIENDLY PPL. Just go in and you'll make friend no matter who you are.
2. SUPER CLEAN. Everything is squeeky clean.
3. THE AIR is so fresh like my breath. There's the few pricks who smoke around and contaminate it..but its ok...i guess coz the ciggs here are so expensive as well...RM50 for a pack.
4. Liquor is cheap even after convertion. I got a bottle of vodka for about 2pounds...RM14 only.

So thats it for the bars..i'm not really into bars.
Today! Football try-outs for my college team..dont get confused..college team and Uni team is different. College is the place where i stay and Uni is....uni..all the colleges combined. There are 9 colleges around lancaster.

It was 2pm we gathered at the foyer and departed for the football pitches which is about 200 metres away. There are 6 pitches alltogether. Huge wide area to kick some balls. About 120 ppl turned out for the try-outs which was a fantastic turnout.

We were divided into 8 teams and we swapped teams after a team scores a goal..yeah my team won all our games thx to 1 super keng Turkish fella. Its SUPER HARD to play football here...10C + HEAVY RAIN + the ball is a FOOTBALL..not used to it...usually futsal ball and the worst mistake i made is that i forgot to bring my futsal shoe.

Super freezing..that place should be called the freezing field instead of football pitches. Rushed back to have a nice warm shower with all the other guys. No girls this time..haihz..and after that i'm here posting this post. Some pics i forgot to upload a few days back. Didn't take any new pics today..luckily i ddint coz it was raining.
Free bus to Lancaster town. Something like the Kelana Jaya Lrt Station bus > IKEA

Interior of the bus...the top floor. the red guy on the left is Pablo the Real Madrid Team B player. Not a clear pic..i'll get 1 soon. A pic of him i mean.



See how clean and clear the bar is...you can even smell the fresh air from here.
