You won't be lonely even if the sky is falling down

Pizza+movie night, very enjoyable especially after a crazy week. Late nights starting sat - fri, some partying others studying and one due to fire alarm at 3 in the morning. Managed to make it for only 1 day of classes, missed all the rest. It's winter time, hibernation's a natural process, don't judge.

First signs of winter

It turned dark at half past five.

Rained heavily while I was making my way down for lecture, thought I was going to slip and fall and die, and then my umbrella turned upwards it was almost amusing if not sad. Need to go look for pretty raincoats now.

Went down to fopp again with its 3quid DVDs and many cheap band tshirts, books, posters. If they don't end their sale anytime soon I'd be able to open shop in my room in no time.

Didn't manage to do laundry today because of readings (which I chose to do cause it was so interesting, love criminal law cases haha) but did go to sainsbury's on the way back and stocked up on yakult, juices and drinks yay me :D Also took out trash and soaked a few clothing. Will come up with tomorrow's to-do in a lil bit.

Anyway, Bath on sunday was pretty enjoyable though it was very very tiring for the legs, we walked from like 8am-8pm. Roman Bath, Sally Lunn's was very yummy, mint-chip ice-cream was delightful, scenic views, Jane Austen's museum thing where I got bottles of (lizzy bennet's) handcream (I actually still prefer emma to pride and prejudice though). Dinner at Shanghai nights saw all the oriental food, charkuaytiau horfun etc.
photo spam (love the wide-angle!!)


























































p.s. I just realized there are a few patterns to their 1 quid coins. Apparently changes every three years.


And put up pictures :D



Ok bbt now, then himym then gg then oth :D

Save some face, you know you've only got one
Change your ways while you're young


Am 3/4 way through my property law tutorial (not my favourite really), work well with point forms but can't seem to get down to drafting statutory provision. It's like my mind cannot form full sentences anymore :/

So anyway, missed another saturday brunch but 'twas worth it. Had a great night out at Oceana, Daryl&Geraint's 21st birthdays, mainly cause they had a rock room which later in the night played livin on a prayer! It. was. Amazing.

And, I can finally proudly say that I'VE WATCHED PULP FICTION yay me! I wouldn't say it lives up to all the hype (seriously, the look I got from every person who'd found out I hadn't heard of pulp fiction was that of utter disbelief it was almost amusing but I mostly felt ashamed of myself.) I mean, it was funny and good all, but not great. Then again, the hype always makes a great show comparatively less great, oh the expectations. It was good nonetheless.

Waiting for stock of my Audrey Hepburn poster to arrive. Picked it out after close to 15 mins of flipping and choosing between many awesome posters (led zeppelin had nice ones but I'm no fan and of course marilyn monroe and other movies footballteams etc) and it had to be out of stock. Joyyyyy.



Laundry, where I had to go to the vending machine and get those tidbits because I didn't have enough 20p coins. Drifter turned out to be really good Im gonna bring it back in dec haha.


HAHA i'm speechless.

Alright, back to fixtures and chattels and possibly criminal law tutorial as well since we're heading out to Bath tomorrow :D

Well I gave you the Midas touch
Oh you turned round and scratched out my heart


While in the cinema waiting for our show to begin, this played!

We squealed when Ashton Kutcher came on! (and there's patrick dempsey, drsloane haha, julia roberts omg, anne hathaway etc!!)

So anyway, didn't manage to make it down for breakfast nor do laundry this morning, will attempt again tmr. Did however catch (500) Days of Summer with Eunice in the evening! Cinema was so pretty and the shops at Cabot Circus will see us going back for more in no time :D


(We had onion rings and fries which were really yummy!)

3 hours which saw only 6pages of property law readings but quite some printing/photocopying in the library ago, had lunch at Beijing Bistro which had really yummy oriental food but very appealing, not so great tasting desserts.













Ok back to my readings. (And himym, gg, oth, bigbangtheory)


Oh oh oh before I forget!

:D

p.s. I've 3 albums and a number of loose songs from iTunes already.

London Calling

Spent the weekend in London - pure SHOPPING which was SO AWESOME I'm not exaggerating! Westfield was vivo x3 and then Oxford Circus was as always, perfect. Didn't do ANY sight-seeing. Did go to chinatown for sumptuous Chinese dinner at Golden Dragon which was :D :D :D Oh and we attended All Souls on sunday morning which was pretty good! Loved their songs (nope, not hillsongs).

Spent the night at Wembley which was in zone 4. 3 doors down from a dingy club, heard a gunshot at 1am? I was petrified, couldn't "lay low" cause I couldn't move. Quite an experience I must say. We're definitely paying a bit more for a better location next time!

Dry cabinet came last week but then I realized I'd brought the wrong camera charger, managed to get one online for 9quid and it's arrived! But considering the amount of walking here, I might just not bring it out unless it's a really go out to sightsee day, though I prefer everyday pictures. Oh well we'll see. (My iPhone takes pretty decent pictures anyway.)




Hoping to head down to the suspension bridge and bath and this place with factory outlets!

Oh yes, formal last week was amazing with really good food, a bottle of wine each, our pretty robes etc, I'll try to get pictures but for now you'd just have to make do with descriptions which I'm not doing a very good job of. Okay, think harry potter. Haha

Next few days will be spent running errands which I have picked up and come to love - doing laundry/taking out trash and of course my all time favourite, grocery shopping! Will also be striving to take breakfasts and dinners in hall to make up for the amount spent over the weekend :/ (I used my debit card only!)

Next lesson's on thursday, but there's tonnes of reading to be done. Still feels like I'm on a 2.5 month holiday.

I shall get cracking, after I set up a new iTunes account and spend what little money that's left so I go home with no money to my name. (Kidding.)

p.s. I need to get in touch with movies showing here, think I might just end up missing Julie&Julia and (500) Days of Summer because they're ending soon :(
