~F*L*A*T*M*A*T*E*S: Crazy Night~

Played True or Dare game with flatmates after dinner today. The punishments were simple  in the beginning of the game & we got excited at last. We had FREE-STYLE "Make-ups" on face! Catherine was the 1st one to get the punishment. The Makeups became more & more "artistic" & Ritchie was the last one to get that "precious' punishment. We had great time drawing on each other's face & it was another crazy night. =)


Last but not least, Group Photos of the Models. =D

Vintage Shoes & Bag from ZARA!!



 It's mine!!
I the color, 
I the designs,
I the vintage material, 
I every single inch of them! 

My very first time, buying things from ZARA 

I'm delighted about what I've bought for myself with the money that I've earned during my holidays. I never stop smiling when I'm hugging them & looking at them. It's like my dreams came true.

~T*R*I*P: Cambridge~

Continuing the excitement after the La Fiesta Party last night, it's Cambridge Trip!! It was a city, famous for its building architectures(again), Colleges & Universities

That's one of the reason why I dressed like a "student" as my OOTD. lol
"Student" enough? =D
 
*Spot my new ZARA vintage bag! it to the max!*

We had predicted that it would be a boring trip, but we kept it interesting enough by doing some cool acts at this beautiful place.=D
 How's my sidekick? =D


Also, had some portrait photography outside The Fitzwilliam Museum.


It was a lovely place, it's just too boring for "active" people like us. =D
Need to have a really good night sleep tonight since we didn't have enough sleep last few days.

Cheers ♥

~S*H*O*P*P*I*N*G + P*A*R*T*Y~


SHOPPING time, with my flatmates at Liverpool yesterday! 
 
We left from our flat at 6am something for our train to Liverpool, which was 2 hours from Sheffield. We didn't really have much sleep last night & we took short naps in the train, as well as the coach to Cheshire Oaks. 

Back to shopping, I had few "FIRST TIME". First time buying Pull & Bear's stuff, first time buying ZARA stuffs., first time buying ESPRIT, NIKE & also ADIDAS. The feeling was really...different & amazing! But something's still missing in between, because it's not my money. I really hope that I can earn more money & have more "first time" for other better quality brands. 

Liverpool city! It's really a CITY! Shopping heaven! lol

 Shopping at the Pull & Bear
*Spot the scarf, on my neck. That's what I'd bought*

My NIKE & ADIDAS :P

We nearly missed our train back to Sheffield, as the coach picked us up late. We started to run from the bus stop to the railway station once we got down from the coach. It was really freezing & we're running on the busy streets, with BULKY shopping bags. Nearly choked from insufficient oxygen. Can U imagine how embarrasing we were at that moment? I didn't even feel like thinking of it, not even a bit. lol. Luckily, the train was delayed for few minutes & we got into the train with relieves. *Thank God*

We reached our flat at about 10pm with nearly-broke hands & legs. We put away our shopping bags & got ready for the La' Fiesta party organized by Uni. 

Since it was a Disney-themed party, I drew Mickey logo on my left arm.

There was a painting for everyone on anywhere they want. I had an UK flag on my right arm while my friends had on their faces, neck & hands. =D
 

What a exciting DAY & NIGHT for us.=D

We hide ourselves in the small room in the laundry room & surprised her when she came to get the laundry clothes.

~T*R*I*P: Stonehenge, Salisbury~

Had a 2 days 1 night trip to Salisbury, which is almost 4 hours away from Sheffield. I went there with my flatmates & some other friends by train. It would be a long day for us, so Catherine & I started to prepare meals for 4 once we got home from class at about 2pm. We prepared spaghetti, fried rice, fried spaghetti & sandwiches!


At about 6.30pm, we met up at the main entrance of our accomodation flats with all other friends & walked to Sheffield Railway Station. Departed from Sheffield at 7pm & change trains at 2 stations before we reach our last station, Salisbury.

We didn't get much time to sleep because the we have to change our transits in each hour. Our last transit went off early because our previous transits had been delayed. Luckily we got the replacement transits & free taxi to Salisbury station. Fortunately we reached on time before the bus to Stonehenge left.=)

This was our bus:

It was a freaking-cold night & luckily we got our thick jackets & blankets! We were dropped at the bus stop one-mile away from the Stonehenge. It's crazy to walk 1km++ in the middle of the night! Cold like no body's businesss!

Anyway, finally we reached our destination: STONEHENGE. A prehistoric monument which is famous for its circular settings of large standing stones (Wikipedia). It was not opened to publics to go near the stones in normal days, but it was an exception on the day we went. It was opened from 8.30pm(20th of June) to 8am (21st of June). We reached there at about 2am.
 
After some walk & photo sessions, we settled down & had a picnic in the middle of the field facing the stones with our blanket placed on the grass. We were there, waiting in the freaking-cold weather for the sunrise. Sounds exciting & it was really cool in real too, although it's really cold.

The sky started to turn bright at about 4am, but we couldn't see the sun because there was a cloudy day for a sun to appear. Had some photos too!

 

Breakfast time =)
We didn't manage to take clean Stonehenge because there was too many rubbish around. That's my only disappointment. Overall, I'm happy with it! =)

At about 7am, we left the place & everyone of us walked like zombie while we're walking back to the bus stop. The bus fetched us back to the Salisbury town & we spent all the time in that town till we left for our train at 3pm. First was Burger King, then.... shopping...

I found a shop named Claire's.
Of course, not with the "K" infront. I bought some souvenirs from that store & some for myself! A leopard spot purse & Claire's compact mirror! Love both of this very much!


Next was the Salisbury Catheral. A beautiful church with clean & green field surroundings.
 
LOVELY.

Last stop was Starbucks, before we left.=)



It's great to have the chance to touch the stone, as not everyone gets the chance to.
You can try to find out when will be the next time, for the Stonehenge to allow free entrance for publics & it'll be really worth it for experience! 
All the best!

~V*I*T*A*M*I*N* C~

Went to ALDI for some groceries with my flatmates & we bought Water-soluble Vitamin C for each of us, since that most of us are having flu & cough.
 It's my first time, having the whole tube of Vitamin C as my health supplement. =)

~L*O*V*E: Moccasin Shoes~

Currently I'm crazy for this Moccasin shoes! Have been looking all over for this kind of shoes since I got here, in UK. All of them were damn expensive! Let's show some photos of the moccasin shoes that I spotted.
 
 They cost about £40!! Crazy ='(


At the same time, I'm also looking for another type of shoes like this:

I'll wait, for the crazy summer sales!
Hope that I can find my size & my favourite ones!
*pray hard*

~T*R*I*P: Manchester~

Had another one-day-trip to Manchester this morning! Perfect weather for a trip, although it's quite windy! Luckily I had my red hoodie, which kept me warm enough throughout the day. I had minor flu & sorethroat this morning & luckily they didn't affect my condition when came to taking photos. lol

 This were the lunch boxes prepared by Ritchie for all of us! Thanks!

Our bus departed from our hostel at about 8.30am & reached Manchester United Stadium after one & a half hour. Slept mostly during the journey to avoid dizziness from shaky bus.

The stadium was interesting enough as eveyone of us was thrilled to see this huge & famous stadium with our bare eyes. David, was our stadium guide of the day, showed us around the stadium & we got the chance to sit at different sides of the stadium. We also went into the Press Room, Players Changing Room & Players Waiting Room (before match) & more.


At about 12pm, our bus brought us to the City Center of Manchester. We were dropped in the middle of the city & asked to meet back at the same bus stop at 5.45pm.

The walk in the city was tiring!! This had pulled my mood down. Manchester was a wonderful & famous place, as I remember? Maybe we're given too little of time & with just a city map in our hand, we're needed to find the way out ourselves. Luckily our group has few friends with good sense of direction, if for me, I think I'll lost in the middle of nowhere.

We visited museum & library. How boring was that? I just not that type of person. However, I found the art gallery much interesting, as I thought it will be as boring as the museum.

Below were the photos taken in the Manchester Art Gallery:



This was an interesting mirror! 
 
Walked & window shopped at few malls in Manchester. Most of them were too expensive for me & I didn't want to spend anymore for clothes before the crazy summer sales are officially launched. I'm just not rich enough to buy whatever I want.

I may love this city, if I have more time to travel around. At the mean time, I didn't feel like going back yet as I need to save money for the sales! Muahaha~!!

Still, I love the weather & greens in UK.♥
