Old Barn Cottage

Yesterday, I was invited to Xyuro's house. She stays with a British family. The name of the house is Old Barn Cottage. See, British can name their house not like us No 2, Jalan...blah blah blah......

Her host mother and father was friendly and so nice. Me and Carolyn played around their big gardens and had a marvellous dinner. But the portion was too big and way before the dessert we were so full and yet still eat down the ice-cream and scones. GOSH!!!!

I found that old British people love simple life. Roger and Moreal lives together and just only 2 of them. That's why they collaborate with the University for homestay programme to live with people from different country. They are quite rich I think because they have 3 big lands. Big ones. Their house is very big too with big dining table, living room,garage and bedrooms. It is a nice experience to visit a British family and have a proper British meal. Love it~


Toilet!



Their back yard... the scenery is beautiful!

Roger and Moreal!!!

The making of a 63kg girl...

It is easy, the following are the steps to increase weights

First, do not eat breakfast. Sleep as much as you can and wake up at the nick of the time which enough for wash-up and make ups.

Secondly, before lunch, get yourself a packet of chips or a bar of chocolate. OH.... for exercising your mouth.lol

Thirdly, Lunch time. Eat anything you like. Preferable carbs because you need energy for the rest of the day. After lunch time, better not to do exercise or walk around. Best to just sit down and this is when your fat butt and big tummy start to form

Fourthly, tea-time. Eat either bread, cookies, cakes and sip a cuppa milky coffee.

It's time for a short nap. Go for a nap after tea-time.

It's dinner time when you wake up. So, get prepared for the nicest meal of all. Dinner should include sodium, protein and must have desert. It is advisable to take ice-cream. After having the dinner. Sit in front of the computer or starting to do homework until you are so exhausted and head to bed.

See? isn't so simple to gain weight? Oh yes, the most important and significant one
DO NOT DO ANY EXERCISE!!!!! bare in mind.
With this, I gurantee you to gain at least 1 kg per week.
Interested? give it a try!!

Randomness~~~

These few days is full of research and a lot of readings to finish my assignments. Well, at least I get to finish and passed up my accounting and management assignment. The last one will be my economics assignment which due end of August. Aiyayaya~~~~ have to do a lot of studies and research.. I hate finding sources :(

Last term is always busy as you all may know and yet is summer which "seducing" me to go for holidays like the beaches. I want to explore Devon and Cornwall, hehhee..... also I want to watch a lot of movies. Movies I want to watch are, Ice Age, Bruno, Public Enemy, Harry Potter, The Proposal, Sherlock Holmes, Knowing and many many..... oh my god... so many movies and so less time.

Back to some miscellaneous that happen in life recently. I have 2 more new flatmates and both are girls from China studying English for the Summer. Both are my older sister as they will be studying Master in the coming term. At last I am not the only girl in my flat and at least I have some company. Hehhee...... One of them, Brenda even gave me a present---- Anna Sui's perfume when we first meet!!! wow!!! You knoe Chinese ARE rich!! My mom said she cannot tahan anymore.....Anyway, I take it.. bleah bleah.....

3 of my classmates kena Swine Flu and I am so paranoid. I am so scared that I will get affected. What I do is to stay in my room all day. If not possible I will not go out. But, too bad tomorrow got Hotpot so have to go city centre to buy food. Swine Flu is quite serious here, and my lecture said that after 2 months, everyone in Britain will affected by Swine Flu. I DUN WANT!!!!
I was heard of a ridiculous party known as " Swine Flu Party". The party is to have fun with people who get Swine Flu and spread the virus around and everyone will get that eventually and get over with it somehow later! What???!!!! I really dun understand what the British are thinking!! hehe.... anyway.. no worries, I am taking care of myself.

Coming home is less than 2 months time!! yeah!






Some random pictures!!! The view from my room, it's 8.30PM



This is 10pm then....





Present from my flatmates.

Julie from Indonesia brought me some of her cookings!! This is good. Its spicy and taste like backhome~~~~ Thank you!!!

Listening to: BIG BANG, Gara gara GO!!!!

What's wrong with me?

Do you ever experience that you try so hard for something and yet you did not get what you should have? For me, oh yes! it always happen..... and I always complain about it.
It happen to me this time again... I still feel sad but I get over it quickly.
I found out one thing about myself. My problem is not that I did not try hard or work hard.
I work and do it hardly IN THE WRONG WAY!

I am old enough to have self realization. Back to 2 or 3 years time, I always get frustrated that why I cannot score better or do better on any task and studies. I put in so much effort and does not come out like what I was expecting. Well, I was too young to admit my mistake and not willing to face the fact that I am actually not working hard enough. I work hard BUT not ENOUGH.
Like Dr Shoret (my management lecturer)said:" you just have to push it! you think you are good enough but you are not until you take another step out, who knows you can actually go for another mile?" I know everyone must have known or already heard of these advice from all sources. But, it always easier said than done and ME always stuck in the proccess of pushing myself to the ultimate limit.

I write this because I received my results. The subject that I had prepared the most scored the lowest mark among all. Well, I guess I have to look for another approach to score. No worries, I did not fail and I still got a distinction. The problem is that I know I can do much more better than this and I did not. Is not about the grades but is the self-actualisation within myself. I just wanna scream~~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

instead I just type it here to realise my unsatisfaction.

HOlidays~~

I am so uninspired now. I stay in my room all day. The only place I go is the kitchen which is less than three steps from my door room. Suppose to be doing my assignments and end up watching movies end up trying on my clothes to mix and match my clothes for the summer.

Life in England can be exciting and boring at times. Especially during holidays. I rather have some lectures to pass time. But, during lectures I wish I have holidays. Hahaha.... I am always contradictory. I think all students are as me.

So envy that most of my friends are going back home. AHHhhhh......so envy envy. I miss home. I want to go home.Eat good food. OH no.... I gained weight as always that I have to cut down on my portion of food. Yesterday somemore eat curry fish and bak kut teh. My friends said it's delicious. Haha.... my cooking skills ones again has upgrade.

Now waiting for my pork ribs to be cooked! Tonight will end my day with the novel that I got by buying Company magazine!

MY current favourite Singer!

Lily Allen~ She is awesome!!!

Introducing---The Fear...

I want to be rich and I want lots of money
I don`t care about clever I don`t care about funny
I want loads of clothes and f***loads of diamonds
I heard people die while they are trying to find them

I`ll take my clothes off and it will be shameless

`Cuz everyone knows that`s how you get famous

I`ll look at the sun and I`ll look in the mirror

I`m on the right track yeah I`m on to a winner


Chorus
I don`t know what`s right and what`s real anymore
I don`t know how I`m meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
`Cuz I`m being taken over by The Fear


Life`s about film stars and less about mothers
It`s all about fast cars and passing each other
But it doesn`t matter cause I`m packing plastic
and that`s what makes my life so f***ing fantastic

And I am a weapon of massive consumption
and its not my fault it`s how I`m program to function
I`ll look at the sun and I`ll look in the mirror
I`m on the right track yeah I`m on to a winner

Chorus
I don`t know what`s right and what`s real anymore
I don`t know how I`m meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
`Cuz I`m being taken over by The Fear

Bridge
Forget about guns and forget ammunition
Cause I`m killing them all on my own little mission
Now I`m not a saint but I`m not a sinner
Now everything is cool as long as I`m getting thinner

Chorus
I don`t know what`s right and what`s real anymore
I don`t know how I`m meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
`Cause I`m being taken over by fear

Opps... I went for a trip (again)

It's hot in Devon now, sun shines up high everyday. How can I resist the temptation of going to one of the famous beaches in England----->St Ives? hahaha... Yes, yes, yes. I went to St Ives on Saturday. St Ives is at the very south west of England. It is in Cornwall. I did not tell my mom, (Sorry Mumee) because I decided to go after chatting with her on Friday. St Ives is also BEAUTIFUL. The sea is so blue and the sand at the beach are so fine. So nice to have a sun bath there. Too bad, I did not bring along my swimsuit along if not I will jump into the deep blue and clear sea. One thing, the water was cold. I cannot stand in the sea for long because I can feel my legs are freezing. I also climbed up the stones and cliff, although it is dangerous but it was fun to do so.... adventurous!! hehe.... We also went up to the top of the hill to have a complete view of St Ives.... Omg Omg... It is a picturous view. Love it, although it was quite windy!!! I wanna go to St Ives again since I am not going to Ibiza... hahaha......


Ladies and Gentlemen, this is St Ives.

My companies!
I was on top of a rock
On top of the hill!!
Lazying on the green grass!
St Ives's town
Clear sea but cold!
Windy day!

I am a happy girl!!!
My lunch... mussels~~slurps!!
Took this pic in a restaurant near the beach!

Summer!!!! I love summer!!!!! oh ya... I got sunburnt... ouch!

Plymouth trip!!

Due to 4 days holiday, from Friday to Monday, I suggested to go to Plymouth to jalan-jalan. So, on Saturday early morning, 3 guys, 4 girls, 7 nationalities gathered at St Davids station and here we go to -------> Plymouth!!!!

Plymouth is much bigger than Exeter for sure. When we reach there, we totally can sense that Exeter is no doubt a village no wonder all my friends back home have no idea where is it... haha... nvm nvm....that is another stories. Back to the trip. Plymouth is BEAUTIFUL. We enjoyed the sea view so much at the end of the trip, we went back to the Hoe, bought fast food and have our dinner there with the spectacular view. For your information, the sun sets at around 9pm during spring. So, we able to watch the sun sets... so nice~~~~~~

At one time, boys and girls split up to have some free time. We girls, of course will not hesitate to go SHOPPING..... ahem... window shopping I mean... hahha.....As usual, went to numerous shops and try on a lot of dresses and did not buy any!!! hahahahaha.



See, start posing for the dresses the we cannot afford. Oh ya.. I fit in size 8!!
Ify, enjoying her ice-cream....
Throwing stones until they hurt their back...


Nice view right?



My Brunch
Plymouth city centre!
