Life in Bristol (1)

12 sept 2009

this is the day i arrived Bristol International Airport. I rmb I was quite nervous the day before I flew. It seems like the day I have been waiting for since foundation has come.
I am at Bristol. Starting to learn to be independent, starting to learn how to mix with people, especially those with different culture, starting to speak English more often compared to when I'm in Malaysia.

At this moment, I am still have not experience any culture shock as I have my mom accompany with me. Thanks god, if not I really don't know how I will be on my first day.

But, I remember she asked me how I felt when I arrived my campus. My answer to that,
I have no feeling. erm, feeling like I am on a vacation.....hahaha

I know I have to start to stand on my own feet as after 14days, my mom will have to return to Malaysia. And, I will be here by myself..... probably tat time I need to go find my friends....

Started to find mom's accommodation but the place is very sad....
Therefore, mom decided to stay with me for the rest of her trips in Bristol. ^&^

We went to the city centre to buy some groceries eg water!!!!
yeah, the water is not as clean as what we tot. drinking water from the paip is a NO!
coz it contains limescale ( not sure whether the term is correct or not).
Luckily I have a friend here to tell me that, if not I will be drinking it for the rest for my study year in uwe. omg!

I also bump into Bena when I was on my way out to the town in the morning.
It was a happy thing to me as I finally found a face that I know....
haha
such a relief~~~ hooo
we have some chit chat in her room with my mom and septiani...
is good to know that someone is here for u when u need them since septiani has been here for 1 year and bena has been here for 1 week..

14 sept

Yes! Monday, most of my coursemates will be here today.
It means that I will seeing most of them in the campus soon.. eithere tomorrow or on wednesday.

When to the main reception, hoping to get a letter to open a bank accout but it needs 3 days in order to produce tat letter.
have no choice but to wait. ish...

Afternoon, follow bena and septiani, together with 2 juniors ( Ching and Sherlene) to Ikea. But, din manage to follow them to the chinese supermarket as me and my mom have bought alot of things from Ikea. SO, WE CANT CARRY IT AND WALK TO THAT SUPERMARKET. haha
I know, I know.. I am lazy when comes to walking. hahah
but, now i really have no choice but to walk because i have no car here. blek
I know I need to walk alot as this is one of the exercises that can help to protect my backbones from weakening.

I guess this is a sign from GOD that I have been skipping from alot of exercises since young.
>< therefore, now I have to do it...
Nvm, I will take it as smtg good as it really benefit my overall health. haha

Today, I have my 1st chinese meal in Bristol..
I ordered fried rice, brocoli and lemon chicken... but I still prefer M'sia style of cooking.

Tml will be another bz day for me. Not sure whether I get to meet my friends from Taylors by tml. But, I do really hope to bump into them as most of them are staying outside which is very far...from my campus as well as my place. but, according to my friend septiani, is not really tat far. maybe i jz not used to walk so far.
hahah
