Happy new year everybody! my new year resolutions for this year? same old ones i guess, coz i don't seem to be able to achieve any every year. Well, most importantly i guess for this year, is to make sure i pass everything (with flying colours I HOPE) and graduate in June 08! ahh...that is what matters most to me now!
I welcomed the new year in London this year. Was a enjoyable & memorable 3-day trip indeed, although it was too short a trip i feel. The trip would also have been better if not for the rain and the freezing temperatures, not to mention the chilly winds! I would definitely go back! probably during summer instead.
In the plane, way too bored! =.=
Victoria Station @ London
Stayed in Globetrotter Inn Hostel..Pretty and nice!

'lo bak ko' ( i think its called white carrot cake in English, isit?)
steamed chicken feet

just loved the deco!
there was some random street performance..it was like a live orchestra! and they played all fantastic numbers of classical music..ahhh..totally melted my heart! =D and the best part is..all of them seemed just so spontaneous! just AWESOME!
At the stroke of midnight..the greatest BIGGEST fireworks i've ever seen in my life! just superbly SUPERB!!!!!
Happy New Year! went to watch the new year parade. Honestly, this is the longest parade i've seen...It lasted for more than 2 hours, it was just too cold after 2 hours. We were practically frozen there, and yet the parade was not over..haha..in the end, we gave up, we just left and headed on for lunch..
