Bowling and Golden compass
DDS test finally over. To celebrate it me and my housemates went out for a bowling game.Since this is my first time playing bowling, the look of bowling ball make me thinks about the possibility of me throwing that heavy ball. However, surprisingly with the right size of ball it is not as heavy as i thought. Anyway, the game was quite fun and moreover i managed to score some point.
After that we watched a movie entitled ‘The Golden Compass’. The stories is nice but maybe my opinion is little bit bias since its my nature to like fantasy-type stories.I even bought the books about it.

my 22nd birthday in UK and treasure hunt
2 weeks before the DDS test was my birthday.This is the second time my birthday being celebrated, the first one at IMU, and its in UK!!.Anyway i would like to thank those who celebrated my birthday especially to Anson, Shu NIng , Ron, Kah Wei ,Amir who organized this birthday celebration. Thanks guy ,really appreciated it and the cake was superb and most importantly it does not contain cheese.
The same following weekend,we have a treasure hunt game,organized by Kah wei. I felt quite excited about it since it is rumoured that the puzzle won’t be easy and so on .However the weather was not on ours side, it was raining yet we continued our games. The first puzzle was arranging pieces of pictures, the second one was finding a book in the library (how they managed to slip the envelope still wondered me), the third one crossword puzzle, and finally solving a riddles.Although our group didn’t won, it was quite fun and also a good ‘excercise’. After the treasure hunt i received a very special present ,my birthday card.
Thanks guys for the lovely card and not to for get really thankful for the multi wrapping:)

This post supposed to be put during autumn,however due to my laziness,it is been delayed till now ..winter season.The visit to glasgow botanical garden during autumn is something which must not be missed.On the road,we can see the fallen of all sizes of leaves.Despites their differences in sizes, they all share a common characteristic which is their colour which can be either yellowish,oranges or reddish. The same things can be seen above the tree.In my mind , i was thinking this is how autumn feels,a unique experience that i won’t be forgotten. Now currently is winter season, hopefully i can see snow falling in glasgow although the chances are quite small.
The squirrel is eating its favourite nut..oops ..biscuit.

The next day ,we again take a walk around manchester and this time we visit a gallery or exhibition, and some exciting places.
Here we found a lot of artistic works and some of them are giant replicas of stationery such as eraser,scissor and so on.At here also i bought some postcard which later i post it to my address at glasgow.
On our way to the famous dim sum restaurant ,we met this giant santa.Its amazing how the santa can eat this much.
The Dim Sum restaurant (Tai Wu)was quite packed, and one of my friend comment its environment is exactly the same as the chinese restaurant. I managed to try one of the dim sum (the prawn one,okay) and its quite nice.
Its quite pack that we need to wait to get a table. The prawn dim sum is the only diim sum i tried and the rest is Mc Donald.Even kena sound by the waiter there for eating outside food 
.After that our group seperated, and the rest of my time was walking around Manchester, I didn’t went to old trafford since its only one big stadium. Finally i and one of my friend come back to Glasgow by bus,[almost miss it since we wait at the wrong place(in the bus station)and not the right one(the bus stop outside the bus station,its so weird,man] and it takes 5 hour to reach glasgow . Anyways,although we are tired when we reached our home sweet home, the experience was priceless.
Manchester part 1
Finally, i have the urge to write a new post,been busy and lazy last few months.Anyway,this time is about my trips to Manchester.For those Manchester United fans out there, to be here is a dream come true especially to Old Trafford where MU stadium is located. Since i’m not a football fan ,the trip to Manchester for me is just to gain experience and not to forget to have fun as well.At first,i was reluctant to go there as i need to send my intro draft in one weeks time and worst my notebook totally cannot be operated.Talk about luck.Regardless of the consequences, i finally decided to go at the last minute.After 3 hours in the train(most of the time was spent on watching scenery and playing games)we finally arrived to our destiny.My first impression sounded like this ,"why each time i go to new places ,it will always be colder than Glasgow and yet it is more colder than Edinburg". Despite the cold weather, we managed to find the hostel.The hostel here is better than edinburg since the room is provided with socket.After equipping ourselves with cold-proof clothes we plan our first move and the first place was China Town.
After having our lunch there, we decided to go around manchester and here are some of the pictures of the place we go.
The ferris wheel above was so nice,its been a long time and yet so expensive.We didn’t manage to take a ride there, since its already so late. However when i’ll visit to London someday, the first thing i do will be riding their famous ferris wheel.
here is where one of my housemate having his first drink and the only drink ordered called ’sex on the beach’. Continue….to part 2
