bro at aberdeen


2 years ago, bro and me............

Bro pays me a visit on the 2nd June. I was so excited about it because he came here not just for my graduation, but most importantly he brought a bank draft and peanut pastry for me :) hehehe.. to my surprise, he hasnt change much, except for him tummy, i guess he had plenty of good foods back home. he is still that funny and daring. We (han ping's parent, jane, bro, and me) tour around St Andrews, Edinburgh, Manchester, and London during his 2 weeks travel.


St Andrews Gold Club. I thought you said 'golf is for old ppl'???


Edinburgh- on the way back from castle

if you ever wonder what other places look like compared to where i studied.. most people will say 'more happening than aberdeen'. i wondered how could i survived for this 2 freaking long years in aberdeen. anyhow, it's almost time to pack and now i m reluctant to leave.

next, we went to london for 2 nights. arrived at good time because it's summer sale. bro went for shopping most of the time. he could shop like a girl, walking for non-stop. luckily it wasnt boxing day or else i had to get a scooter just to accompany him. overall, i found out that it was quite an enjoyable trip at london. more shopping complexes, more night life, good foods..... 3 thumbs up (if i ever had three)!!!


jane at convent garden

if you happen to bump into this fake guitarist, please would someone kindly bash him up for me :) he refused to let her go until i gave him money. this is kidnapping...


she almost fooled the tourists to donate while faking some performance


the real street performer... he should cut her throat out for molesting.

this guy made alot of money coz ppl will just throw some coins just to see him move every 10 seconds. guess he earned at least 100-200 pounds a day. last but not least is manchester (how could we ever forget about manchester united). got to stay for 4 nights at jane's apartment. very convenient location, close to a chinese restaurant that sells good supper and cheap dimsum. i gained 3 kgs after the trip.


ronaldo and rooney kick some ass next season. my money is on your side....

and liverpool, also known as merseyside. visited the stadium and beetles museum
(yeap they are from liverpool)


han ping with his over exaggerated expression. he is happier than the players. i guess he won the betting last time

bro flight was delayed due to technical prob (steering) and had to stay in a hotel for 2 more nights. finally got the chance to bring him along to view aberdeen night life
( coz it rained most of the time). after that sent him to the airport and time to say goodbye. got his call half way, the flight delayed again and asked for 6 volunteers. reimburse 400 euro for 1 night but bro chose to fly bk with business class?? hello.. 400 euro for 1 night do you get the correct calculation.


after 2 years. didnt change that much....

graduation dinner

On the 1st of July, we had our very own graduation dinner at Marcliffe Hotel, Aberdeen. Very nice food and I am very much pleased with the decoration. After dinner we headed to the balcony to take some pictures and back home when the taxi arrived. Subsequently, to Coopers court to gamble and games and of course lots of alcohol, making sure ah wei MUST vomit since it was his birthday. Is a sweet revenge for what he did on my birthday. hehe cheers........



yummy food


happy birthday ah wei. don play so hard ok!! :p

farewell

Have not been updating for awhile. Here I am, writing this entry on the train to Glasgow and head for London in less than 5 hours, meet up with my brother and friends whom arrived earlier this morning. Yesterday was my graduation day. It was such a wonderful journey to be given this opportunity to study here in Aberdeen. Throughout my journey, I met many new faces, some leave and some still here; my new buddy and good friends now. I am thankful enough to have met you guys although it is a very short time.

Ah Lam and On Yong, even though we are from the same college, I never had the courage to talk to you until we study abroad…. and now you are departing to Malaysia in 7 hours. I will definitely miss the time we spend together, teasing each other, and of course your cooking rocks!! I would like to apologize if I ever upset both of you during your stay here. From today onwards, going back to Bedford road will never be the same again without your presence. We debated. Debate which location would be a better place to make a fortune and you chose to go back to Malaysia to start your career. It is sad to hear that we have completely different perspective (hate you for leaving us :p) but I wish you all the best in your career. Good luck guys!
