| R4ND0M | * Get ready to leave Newcastle.

My family will be here in another 8 days, and there are 23 days left to back home.
I feel excited to go home, at the same time I can't tear myself away from Newcastle.
Although the food here isn't has many choice as Malaysia, but the weather here is the only way for me to stay fair but not tan. Also, to stay slim because I walk a lot here. I still remember the first time I sat in the taxi and I was like... Wow, that feeling in car, the feeling is so strange, like I never sat in car for months. 

There are a lot of things happened here.
The happiness, sadness, anger, disappointment.
The happy moment where I travel with my friends, or just normal chatting for hours in the kitchen, party, having meal together, laughing at each others' weaknesses etc.

Sadness and disappointment of some friendship issue, self-confidence, long distance relationship and communication issue, score a bad result etc.

The anger of flatmate's cleaning issue, those drunk people who shout the lungs out of my window in the middle of night and wakes me up, the early fire alarm testing on every Monday, and lecturers who don't explain well with their expectations and making me stuck in my assignments.

I still remember when I just came, I couldn't sleep well every night, the bed is too new to me. I insomnia for months, and I changed the direction from head to toe and from toe to head. Now, I finally sleep well every night. I can have a deep sleep in 5 to 10 minutes. But too bad, by the time I used to it, it's time to leave.

There are still a few things that I really regret not to do it in Newcastle.
I did not travel a lot. I never been to the Tynemouth, Lake District, Bath, Glasgow, Stonehenge etc.
Really wasted the opportunity, I should go to the Student Union and travel every weekend.

My mom did ask me to work here, but I can't make it.
I really salute to my friends who can leave everything and live here, but I really cant.
Maybe I wasn't independent enough, even I'm here, I still look the same.
I still feel afraid to be alone sometimes.
My English in Malaysia is like ABCDE level but in here, my English level is only ABC.
I can type, but I cant speak, I speak like I just learn English few days ago #fail

I actually realize my weaknesses, or I was born to be engaged with relationship that kind of thing.
Like love, friendship, family.
I easily get affected by these kind of thing, maybe that's the reason why I always get mood swing, hahah.

I will miss here, definitely.
Awwww I dont feel like leaving now, howww :(
Once go back to Malaysia, that's the end of student's life.
Need to work, earn money, get married, born babies, and be a long life personal maid to the husband and children
THAT'S MY LIFE, how waste.

Anyhow, I will miss everything no matter what, the people, the environment, the Western food, the university, the flat. 

Miss you guys, I will be back and tick the incomplete tourist attractions if I'm rich in the future, bless me!

| 26052015 | * Visiting The Angel of North.


Hiiii!

之前无意中在姐姐照片里看见她的电脑 wallpaper 竟然是 Angel of North.
然后我就觉得自己很失败... 
因为就连我在这里都超过半年了,竟然还没去过 Angel of North, 讲出来真的是笑死人。
今天,我终于可以抬起头见人了,我可以鼓起勇气,拿起麦克风大声的喊,本小姐今天去了一趟 Angel of North,帅吗?哈哈哈.
加上昨天刚染头发,今天可以拍美美的照片!

... 以下内容将随意带过而已 ...

出发咯!



我们做巴士去到那里,约半小时而已。
接下来的照片都是有关 Angel of North 的十字架铜像。







自拍中...
当天风有点强,甚至拍到有点累,就不管了。











Janet 也在自拍中...





没错!
去景点就是这样,来来去去拍同样的东西,可是却以每个不同角度去拍,
拍了又拍,拍了又在拍,就连我自己在 post 这个 blog 也觉得有点废。
好,喘个气,再来。

咱们俩人自拍。









风景还挺好,
所以我们也在那里野了个餐。
在一个风和日丽的下午.....
咱们在 The Angel of North 野了个餐...







过后再回去 Quayside,和朋友们吃个火锅聚聚旧,
总算过的还蛮充实的一天。

- Victoria 和我的头发,帅?哈哈哈

- Victoria, me, Jessica Elliot, LiYing, Holly, Janet.

| 23052015 | * A Day in Jesmond, UK.


#ootd


HIIIII!


Always heard about Jesmond but don't know where it is.
Finally, I went to Jesmond today!
Some of them said we could walk there, some of them said we could take a bus there and some of them said we could take a metro (tube).
Look at the map and still prefer to take a metro, lazy ass people, its too far to walk :P

We took metro (day saver ticket) at around 1.15pm, from Manor station to Monument station and then interchange to West Jesmond station. We could actually walk to Monument, but we're lazy ass :P




Jesmond is kind of residential places. Not as busy as Quayside, i guess?
Their houses plant with all kinds of beautiful flowers.
We then head to the town for our lunch.

Jam Jar Burger

88, Osborne Road,
Newcastle upon Tyne,
Tyne and Wear,
NE2 2AP, UK.
Tel: +441919087158




Really wanted to try their Jam Burger but I cant take beef so.. I had their Pulled Pork Sandwich.
I thought it will be sandwich bread but it's still burger, yay!
Craving for burger that moment, hehe!
My Pulled Pork Sandwich is really really good!
I really love that.
Really wish to go back again, sooo nice omg.
I would rate that 5 out of 5 omg its so nicee.
Feel hungry while blogging about this, hahaha.

- Ze menu.


- Cow vs Pig Burger for Janet.

- Ma Pulled Pork Sandwich.

- Jam Burger for Hannah.


Then, we hang around in Jesmond, passed Jesmond Dene Park, till the another entry of the park.
Then we went to the park for a walk, and photograph sessions.










- Hannah & Janet.



- Janet & me.


- Hannah & me.


#OOTD 




Selfie with dandelion :D





- Us.

We almost lost in the park, it's like a hiking places, but for me it's a jungle. LOL.
We ask people for the way out from the park.
Then, we decided to have dinner in Jesmond.
We simply search through the internet and decided to try this Italian restaurant.

Scalini's Restaurant
61, Osborne Road, Jesmond,
Newcastle upon Tyne, 
Tyne and Wear, 
NE2 2AN, UK.
Tel: +441912407777


It's kinda crowded inside, the business is good tho.
But to be honest, my food is just so-so only, it's kinda tasteless for my carbonara. 
I thought it should be have heavier taste for that.
I would rate 2 out of 5 for that. 



- Marinara with linguini for Janet.

- Risotto salmon affumicato for Hannah


- Carbonara with linguini for me.

After dinner, we head back to metro station and back to Manor station.
At the same night, we have drinking gathering in our flat because Christine is leaving :(
We just chill and chit chat in the kitchen, together with Christine, Hannah, Jessi, LiYing & Janet.

Till midnight, they left and that's the end of ma blog post.
Take care Christine, see you around in KL!
