Walk the Dog

I keep telling everyone that I'm very busy lately. That is partly true because there are lots of things going on around me, things that are there for me to experience. I never had this kind of fun before. Back in my old uni years, I was always just chilling in my room playing guitar loudly and trying my best to annoy the hell out of my neighbors. My friends would come by my room and we would sing and stuff. I still remember the songs we made and I really miss those days. Funny thing is I'm now still in uni, albeit a different one, and still playing guitar, but I get to do a bit more than that which is awesome.

My friend and I went to the Christmas Light Switch-on in Leeds last Friday. Unfortunately, we did not stay long enough to catch Shayne Ward and McFly perform. I've never been to a place more crowded than this though!

Here's me standing in the middle of the German market. Mad human traffic here too.

Santa on the big screen!

Friday was Harry Potter 7 for a bunch of us as we headed to The Light to catch the movie. I love how the movie is a carbon copy of the book. Let's just keep it that way and don't get creative like what they did in the past HP films.

Saturday we hopped on the train to Huddersfield for some laser tag fun. I didn't know how tiring it can get and that I wasn't prepared for!

Let me shoot somebody already!

Since my coursework involves pets, I can't help staring at dogs when the owners are walking them. I feel like I must do something. But what? Observe the owner-dog relationship? Approach the dog's owner and ask a few questions? Pat the dog? Help walk the dog?

Don't mind me. I'm just thinking out loud because after writing this post, I'm going to attempt to do my coursework.

Bath the dog?

Jimmy Eat World's Gig

Best gig ever. By the end of the show, the crew threw Jim's pick to the crowd and I got it!

My friend's luckier cos she got Rick's pick handed over to her personally by him at the end!

It was a great show and I miss it already :'(

Manchester Trip

Last weekend we headed to Manchester for a trip to the Old Trafford stadium as well as Trafford Centre. I have to admit it was the first time I went on a train, ever! And I'm 23. That's something, right? And it was also the first bus travel I had since the trip from Heathrow to Paddington last month. I don't need to go on a bus in Leeds. Everywhere is within a walking distance!

So back to my story, we bought the day bus ride ticket for £3.50. They were about to have a match at the stadium that day so we weren't allowed inside. We hung around outside instead and snapped some photos. The place was crowded by supporters of the teams which 'til now I still don't know which teams played that day. Haha I don't deserve to be in that place, do I?

This is the sign from the side entrance.

And I assume this is the front? I'm confuse but I think it is :D

My friends, the next "United Trinity"

Vending machines outside the toilets... and the girls :)

Amal chillin' outside ;)

This is one of the buses we took in the city

I don't exactly know when winter is but I know that the weather now is starting to be unbearable. It's like walking inside a freezer, except this freezer stretches for miles and miles and there is no exit door around. The best way to deal with this is to think "Summer". Or in my case, think "Brunei". Haha.

Bonfire

Truth be told, I've never seen a bonfire before because there was no need for one where I came from, unless you count burning dried grass after lawn mowing as a bonfire, which I doubt. The first real one I saw is this and it was indeed a huge one. I don't know the significance of this bonfire though. I've read it somewhere but I couldn't recall at this moment but there is definitely a history behind it.

My friends from uni. Mini is missing in this photo!

The bonfire was followed by a fireworks display and there was a carnival as well. We didn't stay long though and were back by 9. Nevertheless, I had a great time hanging out with my newfound peers. I am also glad that this is where I chose to study because I couldn't have found a better place than this.

Lush and Garlic Bread

This title is not random at all even though it sounds so. This is actually about the Lush soaps that I bought and the garlic bread I ate this morning! Here's the pics.

I decided to try these two Lush products because they smell promising. Honestly, a lot of the others smell horrible! I haven't actually used them yet so I hope they are like what they smell!

My uninteresting breakfast this morning consists of fillet and garlic bread. I still despise cooking. This was prepared by popping the whole plate into the microwave oven. Save lives.

Wraps

I just want to share with you the food I enjoy eating here. This chicken wrap is damn good! I come to realize that I love wraps a lot! Shit, I'm craving for it already.

This is my typical food here. I don't bother with cooking much because I am that lazy. Don't judge me!

A Walk in the Park

Rini and I went to the park near our place that day and you probably guess what I'm gonna say next. Less talk more pics now!

Munching on chips at the park, Rini hadn't had her lunch yet :)

I seriously suck a posing hahah
