ohyeahohyeahohyeahohyeahohyeahohyeah!

*joydance* :) :) :)  

woopwoop! :D

kthxbai :p

 

My perfectly Brummie weekend :)

So I spent a weekend in Birmingham,

visiting Chris and having a tour around

He brought me to markets,

where we had fresh prawns with vinegar

(apparently quite a specialty)

which was more pleasant than I thought it would be :)

Then we took a whirlwind tour 

of the streets of Birmingham...

which was really nice,

and I met the Iron Man

 and took a photo with the famed bull of the Bull Ring Market :)

Then we took a train to Bournville,

where Cadbury World was situated :)

The moment you were within 500 metres

of the Cadbury factory,

the air was already filled 

with the sweet smell of chocolate.

Imagine wafts of chocolatey breeze blowing at you! :D

Yep, that was crazy awesome,

being around soooo much chocolate :)

Then at night we went out with some of Chris' friends,

eeyup, loadsa fun there :)

haven't been to any bars or clubs since I got to the UK,

so this was indeed a pleasant night out,

although we hit like 3 places in one night, but what the hell right :)

Spent the next day with his family,

Had a snack at a nice place called Red Peppers,

 

His parents are super nice people :)

Shame he's a bit insane :p

Haha :D

Then we visited BBC Birmingham,

Where you could experience being on TV and stuff :)

Yep that was fun :)

Then we went to a nice bar in the countryside,

called The Orange Tree for a drink :)

His dad looks a bit like a mafia boss ;)

lolx :D

That was a really pretty place :)

and the weather was wonderful too!

Plenty of sun and breeze... mmm :)

Oh then we went to this really fantastic place

called Panache for dinner :)

... and the food tastes as good as it looks!

Mmmm :) thoroughly enjoyable!

Then the next day,

we just bummed around at home 

until it was time for me to leave...

Chris' dad was supposed to send me

to Birmingham New Street to catch the 3:49pm train.

We left at about 3:15pm,

supposedly going to New Street,

but at 3:49pm we were still on the motorway,

and I thought I missed my train

and would have to take the next one which was an hour later.

So I was a bit chuffed and all that,

but it was a small matter and my spirits were still high.

Until like 5 minutes later, 

when I started seeing signs pointing to Nottingham on the motorway =.=

I was like, wuuuuuut, why are we 14 miles from Notts?

Apparently his parents thought it'd be safer

to drive me aaaaall the way back to Notts from Brums,

instead of having me taking trains with all the Brummie nutters.

Chris didn't know about their plan either when we set off,

until about 10 mins into the journey,

when he noticed they weren't going in the direction of the city.

How awesome are his folks, seriously?

I cried when I got back coz I was so touched T.T

so nice to have that family feeling after such a long time.

I miss my family :(

Oh wells, it was a really nice weekend,

and I loved everyone I met!

All's great and everything, 

but I've been doing too much of nothing,

and I would seriously have to hit the books,

starting tomorrow! :p

This overwhelming boredom.

I. am. so. bored.

I don't think I've said this since I was like, 9.

(until my brother came along for me to bully)

Ask my mom, she'll tell you 

I used to ALWAYS complain about being bored.

But for the past many years,

I've never had that problem 

coz I always had something to do,

someone to meet,

somewhere to go.

But not for the past couple of days.

In fact, we were so bored,

we go to Beeston everyday.

EVERYDAY.

Just to walk through the aisles in Sainsbury's

to preserve our sanity

(and to pick up one or two items on offer!)

And I dunno if everyone gets this,

but I dream of things that happened in my day

either something significant that occurred,

or something that was in my mind for most of the day.

Last night, 

I dreamt that someone removed 

an ultra humongous pimple from my face,

all because I popped a whitehead earlier yesterday.

Popping a whitehead is the most significant thing I did yesterday. FML.

Also, I was so crazily bored,

and figured Abel liked Marmite so much,

that before I threw away my Marmite cereal bar box,

I made this:

Ultimately wuliao. =.=

Someone give me something to do please!

Solid Rock Retreat 2010

I spent last weekend away in the countryside,

at the Solid Rock Retreat which was uber awesome!

It was held at the Harby Centre, which was nice and cosy

and they had a trampoline!

We were wonderfully fed by Byron and his team :)

but we also had to do our share of work and washing up!

Had a lovely time of bonding with friends...

Had amazing times of worship and sharing...

Also had our share of fun and games :)

We also spent some time in the countryside...

or rather, the farm next door ;)

Yup, all in all, had a great time :) hehe.

AWESOME! :)
