bristol

my first post in awhile. haha. i've arrived in bristol. been here for about a week+. been busy settling in and exploring the area. by the time balik bilik malam, dah too tired to post a new blog post. haha. sorry guys!

anyway, bristol is awesome. best gak. the city is fun and active (kinda) but its far enough that i know i wont go there often. so can control la. haha. its a nice city. ada loads of history to the city. foodwise, well ok gak la. there's an area around here that has an asian community, and ada halal butcher and grocery shops so senang la nak dapat. in addition, the tesco here pun ada halal meat and chicken. but other supermarket like sainsbury's, takde. so that kinda sucks, especially since sainsbury's is the nearest to our campus. but for other stuff, like normal groceries or drinks, can get anywhere. plus, the supermarket brands (like tesco juice's or tesco salts or sainsbury's dishliquid) are all really cheap and reliable, meaning quality takde la teruk mana. its not like giant nyer brand. hhaha. so yea thats great.

i stay on campus, and i guess there's a good/bad element to it. its a party campus wei. honestly. on campus itself (which is about 5 mins from my flat) ada its own bar and nightclub, so almost EVERYNIGHT ada a different party with different themes and special bands/djs (mostly djs). mmg sama class with bukit bintang or something. hahha. in addition, because the bar/club on campus closes around 11, the students move the party to the student village. my student village. haha. so mmg its alive and party central till about 4+ kot. music kuat gila, especially if the party is near my flat. even just last week, my flatmates had its own party in my flat. so it was kinda noisy. they all pasang lagu kuat and were drinking etc. one guy even puked on my common area carpet. hahaha. but on the plus side, because i joined in (not drinking, mind u) i got to meet new people and well, got comfortable with my housemates. and at least the campus isn't so quiet and lonely. so thats the plus side. i just hope once term starts it wont be as bad. itu je la. but its because of this whole party thing that most days, i'd just rather buka puasa at aidah's and just lepak/sleepover at her place je. more homey and comfy. haha.

hmm apa lagi. had some problems with my phone line thing. i mean, i made some mistakes that ended up with me buying a new phone, something i didnt really have to do. it doesnt help that the phone line offers here are fucking confusing. but, i eventually got to return it and got my money back. and once i get my debit car, insyallah, i'll end up with a new phone AND a PS3. awesome. haha.

my debit card pun one other hal. HSBC ntah how go and sent my cards all the way to malaysia. haha. i dont want to confuse things further so i'm just gonna wait for my parents to bring it in october.

another problem i'm having is regarding my subjects. its funny. i'm registered as a student. i even got my student card. BUT i'm not registered for any classes. weird. haha. hopefully i'll settle it all by next week.

well thats about it. pictures are all up on my facebook. can't wait for my parents to come over in october! haha. maybe thats why i tak homesick sgt. i mean i miss malaysia, but not gila gila. i think its coz my parents are coming. haha. next post, i'll explain more about my housemates and life in uni la. and again, i'll TRY to update my blog often. haha. chiow!

UK BABY!

so yea, i'm in UK =P haha. didn't have time to update anything before this or post a blog saying i confirm going, but hey, i'm here!! haha. still in london. staying at husna's place along with her housemates. they're alright. nice people.

the day i left, friday, was a pretty eventful day. sure, sedih and all coz i'm leaving. but surprisingly, i didn't cry. kinda dissapointed that i didn't cry. i mean, i'll miss them all! my mum, dad, adrin, aqil, farhan. my friends. haihz. ntah la. maybe coz aidah is here with me softened the blow kot. ntah.

anyway, i was at the airport at about 7.30 am. flight was at 10. all my family and close friends were there, along with aidah's. it was great. i got to see most of my closest people in my life :) some couldn't make it (azwan, cousins) but i understand. coz it was a friday morning on a working day. haha.

so after saying our goodbyes etc, me, aidah and her mom made our way to our plane. and, surprise surprise, i got upgraded to business class!!! XD haha. we got upgraded coz aidah's uncle was piloting the plane. so yea, we got to our seats, got comfy, plane started moving.. and moving.. and made one round.. then went back to the terminal. haha. they found some probs with the plane. so we had to wait awhile, then we had to get up and change to another plane =/ haihz. but no problem la. so we went out, got to another gate, and waited to board. finally, around 2pm baru we left XD

of course, the flight was SUPER. comfy gila. i mean, the business class chairs can be lowered alllll the way down into a bed. haha. i also got to go in the plane cockpit. it was, well, cool XD haha. hopefully (but unlikely) i'll post up pics later.

13 hours later, landed in london. we got fasttracked through immigration, so luckily we didnt have to que through the normal line. i went pass immigration without a problem, but aidah was delayed because of some health problem thingie, and she had to go to another counter.

that time i was so scared. i mean, wat if aidah got arrested or not allowed entry etc? takut gila. but anyway, i went down to get our luggages (berat gila. i'm surprised i managed to carry all), then waited. after awhile aidah's mum asked me go out and wait with the mas crew (because we were gonna stay with them) but, as luck would have it, i couldnt find them. haha. so i waited la with like 5 bags kat tepit jalan in the cold. ada panic skit la.. haha. but 10 mins later, aidah found me, went to the bus, and all was good :)

haha. so after all that, we got to Copthorne Tara hotel, where we were gonna be staying along with the mas crew (again coz aidah's uncle was the pilot). we got one room with 2 beds, so i got a bed to myself. guilty gila that time. =/ but there was no other choice. haihz. was kinda ankward. haha. but we got through it XD

after that, we all went for dinner at malaysian hall, took a walk, went back to the hotel, and SLEPT. haha. penat gila.

woke up next day kinda early. we (me, aidah, aidah's mum) met up with husna at the tube station nearby, then went a whole day around london with her. haha. again, penat gila. but it was fun la. did some shopping and tried to get used to the cold. in the evening we went back to our hotel, took our bags, and made our way to husna's house plak.

arrived at her place, put our bags, then went to buka puasa. but we were running late, so we missed our reservations at this restaurant. in the end we buka'd puasa at 8.30pm. lapar gila. haha. met up with husna's housemates during the dinner. they were all friendly la. haha.

went back, lepak jap, tido :P

today again, we went out (me, aidah, aidah's mum [since these 3 is always there, i'll just call us the Izdahra la. senang. haha], husna and her housemate nama zurin). went to all the torist spots (london bridge, tower bridge, buckingham palace, covent garden).

but my day was spoiled because of a fight with aidah which kinda resulted in a bigger thing than it was =/ surprising that even in UK with people with us we can still get into fights. haihz. anyway, i was pissed off with her allll the way back. geram gila. baring baring alone in the room i shared with another of husna's housemates (lukman), trying to calm down, then aidah came. tried to talk and fix things with her but ntah. dunno if it worked. she went to sleep, and i am now typing this out :)

so thats my first 2 days in UK. haha. tomorrow morning izdahra will be leaving for bristol. i'll update from there. haha. sorry for the lack of details and pictures. but like i said, PENAT XD i miss everyone!!! damnit la.. where are my tears? haha.
