The One with First Easter Holiday with FXC + 2

Life has been really hectic and BORING in Sheffield.

until EASTER

On the 8th of April 2011, the Friday when lecture ended and easter holiday begun, a small portion of friends from all around the UK came over to Sheffield for a quick busy student life getaway

As usual, brought them around boring ol' Sheffield, makan, minum, chillaxxxxx.. :)

On the 9th of April, morning - headed down to Peak District . Lovely weather, lovely breeze, amazing scenaries :) absolute BLISS LAAAA!!!

The brief summary of the day:-
Started off from SHEF > EDALE > CASTLETON > SHEF > COVENTRY

Some of the many scenaries I took :) this one seemed to be the best.

the people who went :) FXC + 2

It's practically summer there :) warm and lovely.

on our way down to Castleton

An amazing macro shot if I do say so myself :p

Ada banyak Sheep and Lamb there.

Then head down to coventry in the evening around 6pm.
around 8:30pm - Karaoke at Coventry, sang my heart out, with my fabulously horrible voice :)

Next day, heading to birmingham from Coventry.

Mini golfing in Starcity, Birmingham. My dad would be so proud of me :o

Chilling time. Watched shrek, played monopoly deal,
then took a picture of the ceiling.

Leaving STARCITY, which means leaving birmingham soon too!

One last picture - Selfridges of Birmingham. Very unique architecture.
Uber tiring trip, super rushy. But the thrill of catching the train is really .. different. teeheee.. and I love it. So next up,

18th of February 2011, went down to Manchester to visit some of my best friends since High School.
Chinyuen, Kaixin, HanBin and newly arrived YingPin.

Reached late afternoon/ early evening. Settled in and had an explosive Karaoke session.

19th March 2011 - BLACKPOOL BABEH!


Obsessed with Black & Whites nowadays :)



That Famous Blackpool tower.

Walking towards Pleasure Beach.

I love the sea. I seriously do.



Pleasure Beach .. is a theme park -.-" Such a bizarre name for a theme park.

I'm the only chicken in the group.
The Brave Warriors who went on the scary rides.

The Chicken.

This is one absolutely amazing shot!
Thanks YingPin! :D    *Click to enlarge*

I'm damn Sakai.

Riding like the wind! :D

Last Few pictures. Crazy HanBin. 



The Magic Show we attended in blackpool was the best event there.. According to me anyways.
And the sad thing was, the magic show was for little kids no older than probably 10 years old :o

Went back to Sheffield on the 20th. Seriously, can the weekend get any shorter? :(

Life is unfair. hmphh!

I miss all my friends from everywhere now! :(  If home sick and is possible, then I think I might be having missing-friends-too-much sick.
