Study break ain't no fun at all

....Staring at the same page for the past 3 hours....

ZzzZZzZZzz

...No, this doesn't look good. Shit.

Finally...THE four seasons!

Four seasons in Glasgow, proud to say....my second home =)


SUMMER!
- The best season! -
- Sunny, cool breeze, green grass, blue skies, happy! -





Autumn
- When the trees became more naked and I got a better view ;P -
- Weather's still awesome but a lil tad too chilly -





WINTER
- The sickening-est season -
- Freaking cold...causing me to hibernate way too much -
- Snow was beautiful tho! =) -






SPRING
- Hmm..this is not exactly spring's pic....but just imagine it with the trees still totally bald lol -
- The shortest season ever...I didn't even feel the transition btw winter and summer! Hence no spring picture! -




SUMMER!!
- The same pic as above! It's during early summer. Well, sort of. The trees are not totally covered with leaves yet and the flowers are not in full bloom -
- But the weather's just perfect! Ahhh....*hearts* =) -



ps: I'm gonna miss summer and autumn in Glasgow!!

What a sunny day! =)

Ahhh~ It was 17 degrees outside this afternoon and the sun was shining ever so brightly =)
What a purrfect weather for a picnic!
The sun wasn't scorching hot like it is in M'sia, (Yes, I know..Practically everyone is complaining bout the weather back home) but there's still some cool breezes of air making it just nice!
The grasses were also sooo green and there's some cute lil flowers blooming here and there!

Thinking back, the sun reminded me so much of one of my fav places back home.

.....

Flea Market!!



Sunnies, shorts and slippers/wedges? Check!




Although the hot sun and smelly sweat still irritates me, I still love goin back there again and again! =) And oh, I might as well add that it's also my bf's least fav place to be...and he won't stop complaining until I stuff his mouth with either ice cream or 7 eleven's Slurpy.




Oh my cute lil portable fan! Which can be pretty useless sometimes haha

OMG let's GO flea market!!

Amore, Amour, Amor?

Italian food again! =))) It's never too much! for me ;P
Especially when they have their special two course lunch meal for just 5.99 pounds!
That said, we only have a few selections to choose from la, obviously....




This was actually our 2nd visit and I remembered it left such a good impression on me the first time around that I vowed to go back no matter what!





And I super *heart* the ambience inside =))
A really good place to chill....



Baru bangun tido



That's the flirty leng chai italian waiter who nge nge want to join into our picture and the person who took this was this really nice old lady who offered to take for us and she looked damn cute handling the camera as tho it was her first LOL

Food-wise, it wasn't as superb as the first time, probably cause we kiam siap wanna choose from the special lunch menu, but still good nonetheless! =)





And how could we NOT order desserts?!!!

Yum yum yum yum yum...Desserts are just sooooo goodddd


Hopefully I'll have another chance to come back again soon!


*Camwhores*



Okla I know damn boring cause they're all repetitive poses but it was freaking cold ok! Colder than expected cause it was warm the day before! Stupid weather.
M'sia's too hot, Glasgow's too cold...sigh
Global warming IS scary.




Amore u girls! =)

Awesomeness

Yen's ex-roomie, Addie, came to visit from London and so we thought, hey! Let's go clubbing!
Ahh! Finally! ;P

Initial plan was Karbon.
Took a taxi there cause it was raining and freaking cold plus I was wearing my killer heels. ;P

Sucky thing was....I was rushing like mad previously, I only brought my International Student ID and not the Uni Student ID and they won't accept it! Damn.
Why must they be so strict?!
But hey, Addie didn't bring hers too ;p haha

Back-up plan number 2: Go Bamboo.
But err...as stupid as it sounds, we don't know where it is?
Shitz. haha

Back-up plan number 3: Go Garage.
So Garage it is.
We were pretty early so it was empty at first, but after that, woah! It was a pretty damn fun night!
Dance floor was so spacious, there's no need to worry that someone might 'char' your ass!



Wee! Seriously danced till we were bathing in sweat! Gosh.
Good night. Good night.


Ok, clubbing aside,

Back to food. Haha!

Decided to do green bean soup cause I miss chinteik's mum's home made green bean tong sui!
She usually makes for me back home =(
Me miss.



Oh well, this was pretty good as well hehe =)


ps: Credits to Jia cause I forced her to eat her clementines so I could use the skin to boil the soup HAHA

Tart Tart! <3

Was craving for tarts so much the past week!
So......



Strawberry Tart!



Okla..I have to admit I cheated a lil this time HAHA
I malas wanna make the tart pastry, so I bought a ready-made one instead! ;P
I just made the fillings.


And due to a special request from sir chuachiahong, the strawberry tart became 3/4 strawberry tart & 1/4 kiwi tart.
.......
...




LOL



Yummilicious! The cream was awesomeee



Still NOT ENOUGH!!



Strawberry CHEESE TART!



WEEEE!!!

Now I'm satisfied.

The reason why I have come to hate our food steamer...



Stupid steam burned my hand!!
GRRrrrRRrRrrR..........

.HATE.

*Makan Marathon~

A bunch of us decided to go to the West End of Glasgow for lunch and some walking around.
Heard there's lots to see and lots of nice cafes etc
But the stupid Glasgow weather, damn unpredictable...
The day before was so sunny summerish and nice, then that day was super duper winterish cold! SICKENING! Dahlah we weren't really prepared for the cold weather.
My hands were so numb, I couldn't zipped my coin pouch! Zzzz...





Ok, whining aside,
It was overall a damn fun day despite the weather!! Not to mention, a super fulfilling day too...for my tummy that is.

At first we were walking up and down the long stretch of street, finding for a nice restaurant to eat and chill but we just couldn't make up our mind until it was nearly 3pm. =.=
In the end, we ended up in Antipasti, an Italian restaurant.
I've been there before during Yen's birthday dinner back in our side of Glasgow. =)




I *heart* this pic ;P






They had a special priced Saturday lunch, 2 course for 10.95 pounds and each of us ordered a set. One thing sucky bout it was that they took SOOO long to serve!!
I also hungry until not hungry d.



Our starters.
-Banyak sedap. Except that the king prawns weren't exactly "king" size. LOL-



Our mains.
-I find it ok nia. But I like the Tuscan pie! Regret regret-








Had some random walks.



The shops there are very different from our side of Glasgow




Candy shop!





Mich's fav dentures candy. Geli wei! LOL



Our next stop, Patisserie Francoise!! An awesome cake shop. (According to Yew Jinn, we shouldn't pronouns the 's', so it's Frrran-choirrr..... LOL Whatever dude.)






Looks super mouth-watering eh? hehe
I miss cakes!!


Got caramel, black forest, choc, cheese, mousse cake, and tak tau ape lagi la...
I was just so happy to see so many cakes in front of me!



The girls.
Yew Jinn is cameraphobic.


Right after, we went to Starbucks and I finally get to try the caramel hot choc!! Goshh...super niceee!!
But afterdat, kenot walk straight d.



Awesome outing guys! =)
