and yes it's another time for a new post. haha! i'm getting really lazy to sit down and blog lately. life's still been pretty much the same but i realised the huge gap btw year 2 and year 1, like the things we learn and the depth of knowledge; really a great leap. think i just have to slowly internalize, esp organic. physical and inorg are still pretty manageable but organic is horrendously heavy. need to give myself more time to cram everything. haha! yeah and i've made an ang mor fren today during the group problem solving class. was really a nice feeling as i'm in a tutorial grp with 7 ang mors. being the only asian, it's kinda intimidating really and i'm always afraid that they may think i'm proud if i were to correct their mistakes. but it proved to be the opposite after i talked to sam today and explained to him certain stuff. he's quite thankful towards me and shook my hands to get to know me. haha!

日本語で：　はい！　そろそろブログの時間だ。　このごろ、　すごく怠けて　blog　の感じがない。　以前の生活と　同じぐらいが、二年生と一年生　の　距離はすごく。　例えば、習ったこと　とか　知識の深いの　は　完全に　違います。　大変ね。　もう少しどんどん慣れるのに時間を上げる　と思う、　特に　organic. physical 　と　inorg は　たいてい　大丈夫だが、　org 　の習ったこと　は　たいへん重い！　自分が僕に時間をもう少し　くれて　全部を　覚えるかもしれない。　今日は　白人の友達　ができて　嬉しかった。　僕は　ほかの七人の白人のクラスに　いるのは　ちょっと怖い。　俺のほかに　アジア人　がいないからです。　彼ら　が　私が自慢すると思う　のは　気にするし、　なかなか自分の意見を表せなくて　よく気をつけます。　今日のこと　は　私がずっと間違った証拠ね。　サムさんに　なんかもの　を説明してるとき、　気をつけて。　でも、　サムさん　は　私に感謝して　いい感じね。　やっと　tutorial グルプ　に　白人　の友達　が一人いる！　　

alright, so a little update on my 2 other trips. the 1st 1 was to eastbourne with yipei, kel n bq to visit the 7 sisters which are 7 cliffs joined together to create a vast undulating land. yeah it wasn't really magnificent but getting to walk along the coast on a cliff was enjoyable and peaceful. it's really a place suitable for finding inner peace. the most enjoyable part of the trip was to be able bask in the sun, having our lunch facing the 7 sisters. with great weather, company and scenery, i couldn't ask for more. it's by far, the most scenic picnic i ever had. haha! and we had beer while gazing at the pretty scenery! and when heading back to eastbourne, we ran 3 times up 3 never-ending slopes and we were all soooo shag! i guess we've walked a total of 20+km that day! it was really that long but the stunning scenery made it look really short.


and we start our journey. my name and evelyn's was carved on 1 of the benches. really cute! all the benches have something carved onto them!


argh, i love such tranquility.

The next stop was to bath last sat and it was also enjoyable with my 3 seniors! but bath is quite a boring town actually i felt. it doesn't really have much to offer and is a very touristy place!


the bath!

Alright, after such a long hiatus i think i should start blogging again! am waiting for kelvin to finish cooking bak kut teh while i'm doing this blog! yeah, these few weeks have been treating me well except for the 1st day of school. seemed to be besieged by deadlines and tests (esp jap) after the 1st day of sch and guess that's not very welcoming. but anyway, things got better as i know that all these can be settled when given enuf time. so yeah, have finally settled in my house and i quite like my apartment and it's surrounding is really tranquil but not dangerous and there're 2 gardens, 1 at the back of the apartment and another at the front. yes, and my room is gigantic!

alright, have been able to catch up with work and realised that i need to do a lot for japanese but well i think i prefer learning more stuff.

i've also met up with my beloved juniors! HCnians! met up royston, sherlene and dorea! yeah, sherlene and dorea are my dunman juniors thus i know them though they're 2 years younger! but well, we're all still united under HCDYB. we had a really nice korean hotpot at assa, in fact 2 hotpots, some kimchi pork and rice cake!


hotpot! anyeonghasaeyo

and yes been to cambridge last saturday with chee han, jk, kel and bq to visit grace! cambridge is really a nice quaint little town, and i love punting there as u can snap marvelous pictures along those rivers! yeah and we also had nice crepes after punting and also dinner at a pub. well, life's still quite free now and i'm going to 7 sisters tmr! have bought beer, apple, bread, tidbits for tmr! am well-prepared! woosh!


at 93/4 platform! king's cross!


punting! pretty photos!


at the pub having dinner! we were camwhoring after dinner!

and on wed, i went for volunteering at woodsworm scrubs! it's a huge park at zone 2 and we carried loads of logs to build a 'natural' bench for kids, for them to walk on top of it and to sit on it when their teachers are giving them 'outfield' lessons. well, this is an organisation that uses natural materials to build these kinda playground facilities for kids so that plastics n metals are not used. yeah, those logs are from dead trees i suppose. and it'll be a little amazing to know that the british gov actually set aside £400 000 for such facilities. yeah and we saw domes made from bamboo shoots i think. it's really interesting that kids here do such stuff and it's really v different from sg i think. yup yup.


our volunteering day!
