50 Days.

Yep, about how long I’ve been here. Haha! Ok, I haven’t updated as often as I should. Partly becuase I’m pretty lazy…

26th Sep

I spent 26th and 27th of September with Jinying, who is studying in Versailles this year. We went to Paris (26th) and Versailles (27th). I don’t have pics from 27th because my camera died after 1 photo on the 26th! Haha! I totally forgot to charge the batt, thinking that self-discharge won’t occur. Sometimes I wonder why haven’t I applied all that I’ve learnt here into practical use… Wahahahahahahahaha…


Beautiful Weather!


Sex in the City lamp-post!


Cute alien statue at Jardin des Tuileries!


Happily throwing my Blackberry into The Devil Wears Prada fountain!

3rd Oct

Went to a hockey match in the Coliseum. It was for under-17s but the stadium was pretty full with supporters!


Hockey!


Crowd!

8th Oct

Tao Liang’s birthday. The bunch of us went to an American Restaurant to celebrate. Had a great time!


Ki-ki and Prem.


Me, the Birthday Boy and Daniel.


Nguyen, Vichu, Shiva and Ki-Ki.


Probably my FAVE pic of the night! Wahahahahahahaha…


With my KI-KI!!!

9th Oct

I received my Care Package from home!


I wonder how many did we violate?! Wahahahahaha…

14th Oct

Finally some good weather for taking pics. Grabbed my camera on a whim before I headed out.


Wished it was 666…


The Colours of Autumn!


The scenery to school…


Amiens is also known as the Venice in France


The ugly chimney that marks the destination!

23rd Oct

Travelled to London with Kaitlin. Had dinner at a cool restaurant that sits you way up high!


I’m high up!


Have I mentioned how similar London is to Singapore? I mean, look at this bus!

24th Oct

Walked a lot today. We went to the Tower of London, the old palace of the kingdom which houses the famous BIG diamonds. We also did high tea with scones and sandwiches. Of course the finale of the night is the GREEN DAY CONCERT! I had a blast there! The only pity is that my camera ran out of battery toward the end. The end was indeed the height of the concert. Billie Joe Armstrong (who dyed his hair blonde?!) did Time Of Your Life and Wake Me Up When September Ends acoustic. Got pretty emotional with the combination of both songs. Man, was it a great concert. Everyone belting out melodies in-sync and in tune! Haha! I wished there was more. 18,000 people at the O2 Arena is some good audience!


Not a problem for me, but for the Kaitlinthe Canadian, still not very helpful!


The Tower of London.


London is only complete with high tea!


London Cab. Yes, I did take it. For a short journey you can experience a heart attack with the meter jumping as fast as your heart beat.


The O2 Arena.


GREEN DAY!!! GREEN DAY!!! GREEN DAY!!!


Before the concert.


The opening band – Prima Donna, with the crowd.


The audience before Green Day comes on.


GREEN DAY!!! I didn’t have the best front view of the band but this is as close as I can ever get to them! Pretty good seats!! :P


The crowd of people with standing tickets!


Even those with seats weren’t sitting! My feet felt like someone had chopped them off after the whole ordeal!


Billie Joe Armstrong! W00T!!!


Michael Jackson?! Hahahaha… They all wore some costumes in the middle of the concert. Tré Cool (drummer) even wore a RED BRA over his shirt! Wahahahahahahaha…


Last pic before my batt died…

25th Oct

Spend the last few moments in London walking along the River Thames. Just looking at the sights as we passed. We had some good weather that weekend! So lucky! I always thought London was wet and gloomy but not that particular weekend! Everyone was abound, kinda miss the crowded cities after being away for so long…


The London Eye and vista.


Me and BIG BEN! Hahahaha… We were there just in time to catch it chime.


The Underground or The Tube.


See! We had some good sun!!! :D


I thought this was a good shot!


Hehehehehehe…


For the tea nerds…


The famous Fleet Street. And yes, it is full of lawyers and attorneys. Hahahahahaha…


On the Millenium Bridge with Saint Paul’s Cathedral.


Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre.

27th Oct

Congcong’s birthday! Her bf, Fabien was in Amiens to celebrate it with her! We went to My Goodness to have a good time, not telling her before-hand. Pretty cool to have surprised her! :)


CC and her b-day cake!


:)


Isabel, me and Fabien!


I love this shot!

Too bad I haven’t got the photos from the Halloween party from last night. There were some good ones!

Anyways, hope you’ve enjoyed the photos. More here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here!

Zombie attacking…

So I’m off to London right after today’s afternoon classes.

Leaving with slight trepidation again. Will tell you when I return to give a perfect account of how to Survive a Zombie attack. For more account of the Zombie, stay tuned! Some major bitching have been going on around here! Haha!

Other than that, to the English speaking land I go! Bravo! It’ll be a good change for a while. That is pretty exciting.

Bon weekend everyone!

London and the O2!

Yay! I’ve finally booked the tix and accomodation for London over this weekend! W00T!!!

This is so exciting! I’m finally going to step into the UK! What more, there is a Green Day concert going at the O2 stadium on Saturday evening as well!

I love being a Singaporean! Because our passport is so useful in going to places. Not all my classmates can go into the UK so easily.

C’est bon! Can’t wait for this weekend to arrive!

An ode to FUNKY TOWN!!!

YES, the Ravin’ Rabbids song! I didn’t realise I’ve got it on my playlist until it popped out on my speakers a while ago.

Lipps Inc. – Funky Town

Bwahahahahaha… To my fellow RR-Wii-ers! Enjoy the song! Oh, I miss National Day where we totally tortured ourselves by perfecting Funky Town over and over again!

Won’t you take me to funky town?! :mrgreen:

…fall in love?!

I’m sure you remember this song, Ian!!! It has been in my playlist for a while now, and once in a while when it comes on, I just get the giggles! It’s called ‘I’ll Never Fall In Love Again’ if you wanted to know.

Deacon Blue – I’ll Never Fall In Love Again

Enjoy!! I bet Timothy’s eyelid is twitching like MAD now! Wahahahahahahaha… :mrgreen:

Walking weekend!

I’m back from a walking weekend in Paris and Versailles. Am really glad that I took this weekend out to visit her and to walk around cross-country. Hahahahaha… Well, I got a HUGE blister because of the wrong shoes. Ah wells, and thanks for lending me ur Gladiator slippers! :D

It’s great to know that there is a Singaporean close by. And of course someone that understand the shit we had to go through. I hope to meet up more often and I wanna head back to Versailles again!

Photos up, soon, I hope! Hahaha…

I’m so tired now…

Paris, je t’aime.

Going to Paris first thing in the morning tomorrow! Meeting Jin Ying there, since she’s starting her studies in Versailles this month! YAY! It’s good to have a Singaporean nearby. :) Will be staying over tomorrow and be back on Sun evening.

Gon take an early night, not very early actually.

Have a great weekend people! I sure will because there is a high chance I’ll be going to the Moulin Rouge!! W00T!!! ;)

Wahahahahahahahahaha…

Internet!

Got it up and running! Finally.

After a week of intergration, defence and party-ing, school started today. Sian right? Yah lor… It’s like the people in Cordoba, Spain are travelling there still and looking for flats to stay at, but we’re already going for lectures and taking notes.

Was with slight trepidation when leaving for France again this time around. Partly because I’m not sure if I made the right choice, and also I wasn’t sure if I could still speak french, hahaha.

Anyways, things are starting to look up. It’s colder here for sure, but I think the people are warmer.

Hostel is alright this time around. We are all staying at the same residence, but all at different parts of the buildings. Kinda like it that way, won’t see each other all the time. Only bad thing is that there is no kitchen inside, so the cooking has to be done in a common place. Well, at least the toilet and shower are inside, so I’m not complaining much.

Anyways, don’t worry about me, I’m adjusting quite fine.

Sigh… Here’s to a super busy semester ahead…

Greetings from Amiens!

Hey all! I’m in Amiens now. Prof Masquelier picked us up and settled us into our dorms yesterday. Had some rest last night.

Morn I went to Carrefour to buy some stuffs. It’s about 30 minutes away on foot.

I’m in Macs now using the internet, think I’ll only get it in my room next week.

Happy Birthday, FEE!!! :D

Enjoy the weekend, everyone!

Hahahahaha… Poor Shakespeare, he’s probably rolling in his grave right now! Oops!

Anyways, I’m leaving later on tonight.

Thanks to all who have bothered to set aside your busy schedules to meet up. It was great catching up with everyone! Not once was it boring or awkward.

I hope leaving this time will be easier. I will definitely miss everyone harder though.

Thanks for the best summer vacation possible!

:mrgreen:
