went back home after the game and had a nice hot shower! fresh awake again. packed my stuff, dressed up, and get ready to head off to Glasgow Queen Street Station. met diana's gang as they were going to Wagamama to have their lunch.
it was quite exciting yet nervous as this is the first time im travelling alone within UK. it's different from wad i always did in Malaysia. taking plane alone from kl to bintulu isnt a big deal. checked the platform that i need to board, to Edinburgh at 6.30pm. Unfortunately there's no direct train down to sunderland, thus i need to get off from Edinburgh to Newcastle, and hopped onto a metro down to Sunderland. did a wee revision and had my sandwiches while im on the way to Newcastle. fell asleep after reading my notes. =.='' dats common.
reached Newcastle, went around to look for metro. give ronald a call as i arrived at Sunderland. he came over to pick me up. went over to his place and get a rest for a wee while. met 2 hongkies, ah ray & jun bao, ronald's housemates and a girl named kelly, a malaysian girl staying together with them. ronald suggested to go over to his fren's house, which was quite near to jac's place. drove over and chit chat, played the cube, taught by a guy, which i've forgotten his name. the only name dat i can remember is alex. :D so sorry, too many names to remember at the moment, brain can hardly remember anything after the tiring journey all the way from Glasgow.
it's 12am!! OMG!! this is going to be a real fun! jac baby din know im in sunderland. this wil rock her bday! :D prepared the muffins with candles, and sneaked into jac's flat. saw kitsiang, and he was shocked as well! i can stil remember his expression. :P ronald went over with me, thanks to ronald, cuz he is the one who helped me in making the surprise a successful one. GAMSAHABNIDA!! we stood right in front of jac's room No. 198, ronald was holding the muffins while im hiding in the toilet just right beside her room. *knock knock* *knock knock*
here goes, jac opened the door, and she was surprised to see ronald holding the muffins with 2 cute wee ducklings' candles. i can only remember she said "OMG! so cute!" and i walked out slowly from the toilet, and she was completely stunned! she was like "OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! RENA ANG! OMG OMG! RENA! y r u here! OMG OMG!" haha, dat was really funny, the most important thing dat i've forgotten to do is taking a video of it. I was so happy, dat i've finally see my best fren in sunderland. see jac, i've promised u to give u "ME" on ur bday.:D
all her frens came up and wished her, bringing along presents for her. her face was filled up with joy! gave her a Lancome facial set. Hope she will like it, altho she is more into Chanel right now :D we had a wee chat and i went over to stay at Ronald's place dat night cuz ronald is leaving for london and paris on the next morning at 7.30am. he left me his key, so i can just stay or leave whenever i wan. he got up at 5.30am for DOTA! CRAZY fella.
woke up at 11++ the next morning, prepared to go out with babe jac, she came over and off we go to Newcastle. had brunch @ St. Sushi, having sushi and white wine. thanks jac for the meal! muax. walked around, doing wad we wanna do, it was so relaxing! nice, cool weather. saw anabelle and her sister too! dat was a coincidence. after dat, looked for kitsiang, he went for a dye and a wee cut in a saloon. handsome young man! jay chou wannabe ** :D the girl u r aftering for will be very blessed! good luck kit siang! :P
then 3 of us went over to dragon-i, a chinese restaurant, get a room for dinner accompanied with karaoke. me n darling jac entertained ourselves first singing english songs. kitsiang went over to the train station to meet up Amy and bring her over. then jac's frens came over as well, WenFei, JebHwa, SVen and collin. singing, drinking, eating, havin lotsa fun!
wanted to give another surprise for jac, however, the restaurant did not sell any cakes, but they have desserts! a tiny weeny dessert, enough for everybody to have a weee bite. bought the dessert and gave jac a surprise!
happy birthday to u...
happy birthday to u...
happy birthday to darling jac...
happy birthday to u...
overjoyed as she made a wish, and blew off the candle. fed everybody a spoonful of the delicious tiramisu dessert. we played games, trying to get ourselves entertained. we finished off with the final song, which i've forgotten the title of the song. a chinese song of course. went back to Alice Street, ROnald's place to get my luggage back to jac's place. left my luggage at jac's place and we head off to Union! YAY! clubbing. long queue with uneducated, uncivilised ppl, cutting the queue by joining their friends.
we had a few drinks, dancing about, eyeing on handsome cute asian guys but to our sorrow, there wasnt any handsome guys! pathetic! but who cares, dat doesnt seem to affect our mood. the most depressing thing is, the songs! GOSH! it was way too dreadful! damn. "potong stim"
went back home at 3am, and poor jac had to cook for 3 of us, collin, kitsiang n me, cuz we were hungry. and we called the day off, cancelling our drinking session and get to bed early. a great night out. zzzz
the next morning, we woke up early and had McD for breakfast. moved on to winter garden @ st peter's, a really nice place. took lotsa pictures, feeding the birds and ducks! had a stroll around enjoying the cool breeze air, bright sunshine shinning upon us with our newly bought sunglasses on from John Lewis. so peaceful, everything is so calm n soothing, looking at couples dating *envious*, kids running around, playing football, adults sitting on the grass munching their packed food.
after dat, we head back to sunderland, homed. took a rest, kitsiang came over n looked for us. we were hungry so we decided to make pancakes. guess wad, because of the pancakes, i almost missed my train back to edinburgh. haha! dat was really gancheong. and we've actually planned wad to do for the rest of the day cuz we thought the train most probably will leave when i reached Newcastle. but who knows! i reached there in time, quickly hopped onto the train and give a great big hug to darling and kitsiang. bye guys! gonna miss u guys heaps! thanks for everything!muaxxx..
took a seat and off to Edinburgh, goodbye sunderland! sobsob. starting to miss them, looked at pictures in my wee camera, was smiling at myself while looking at them. had lotsa fun! saw Yau from IMU medic batch, meiann's classmate.
get down to edinburgh and rushed for a train down to glasgow. WTH! i took the wrong train back. shit shit! and i have to turn back to another station in order to get a train back to glasgow. i was so panic! trying to stay calm. called kitsiang n jac. debbie called and checked the available train back, luckily there's a connecting train back, waited for 15 minutes. phew!! relieved.
reached home, and get a good rest! zzzz...
