Sightseeing

Finally, my supply of Maggie came on Saturday.
Yeah my sis's friend came to visit us and bought lots of food for us. So happy.

On the 1st day(Sat), we brought them to Oxford Streets. Its a long street with shops on both sides. Selling almost everything. Common shops are Dorothy Perkins, Bodyshop, Marks & Spencer, Clarks etc. I bought a pair of boots cos i think i will need a presentable pair of shoes for interviews and other occasions. Cos me a bloody of S$120. *Shake head*

On Sunday, we head off to Buckingham Palace where the Queen is staying. And of cos, the Queens is not there. During Summer, the Queen is away for holiday and that's y we can visit the palace. A very grand place with lots of paintings, chandelier antiques. A pity they don't allow us to take pic and we were limited to certain room. And i forgot where we went to after which. ^_^

And on Monday, we went to the famous Oxford. An hour from London by train. Nice place with lots of old historical buildings. University of Oxford is actually made up of 20 over colleages each having their own code of arms. So there isn't any campus arn. Hence we can only see lots of colleages scattered all over the place. The famous Harry Potter dining hall was film in Oxford at Christ Church. Nth special abt it and it doesn't look as grand as what we saw in the movie. Its actually a very small dining hall and the tables wasn't that long either. Guess it was the effect that makes the hall looks grand and big. *Abit gena cheated cos the entrance cost £2.50 and nth much to see*

Tuesday wasn't that interesting. Went to check the ticket price for Phantom of the Opera. And each person gotta pay £38 for a seat on the Royal Circle. So in the end, only my sis's friend went to catch it. My sis and i will watch it some other days when the crowd is lesser and cost much more cheaper.

And on Wednesday, we went Cambrige. A place that is much more nicer than Oxford in my opinion. A more serene place for further studies. We also went punting. Something like sampan. Jus that the person rowing the boat uses a long thick stick to row it. I wanted to punt myself de.. But hor.. I scare later i lose my balance and fall into the river and that will be haleluya le... And on the way, we saw a man fall into the river and he was shivering with cold. Luckily i never try ah.. Hahaha..
Nice place to visit if you guys got the chance.

Today, sis friend headed off to Rome early in the morning. And we'll meet them in Paris on Monday. Yeap.. I'm going to Disneyland Paris. Great isn't it. Though it means spending more $$. But i think its more fun to go with many pple and anyway we intended to tour round Europe during our stay in London. So the more the merrier. Getting all excited on my trip to Paris. And of cos, gotta cut my diet for the next few days le. Getting all the fats from the sumptous meals these few days. Cannot keep eatting those gd stuff else my ma won't be able to recognise me when i return. Hahahaha.

Got time then upload the photos. Abit the lazy. And think the next post will be up when i come back from Paris. Which is next thur. So take care folks.
