phew..it's been a whirlwind sorta weekend. went to milan with diane! :) (for literally 24 hours)
on fri nite, we didnt sleep and left e house at 3.20am to catch a bus to take the coach to Luton airport. the bus ride and plane ride felt like 10 mins each even tho they were almost 2 hours long each because we basically slept on whatever mode of transport possible. haha..we dun even haf much recollections of the plane taking off which means we'd prob fallen asleep by then. hehe. cant blame us ok..it's the end of a long week..haha..
i could barely keep my eyes open, and when we reached milan, we took another coach to the city centre - another opp for sleeping.haha. then, we met huiling at the bus stop ! :) yay. so fun hee she brought us to Duomo and the surrouding area..where we toured like 15 mins and shopped and ate e rest of the day. haha ok to be fair the church was really really pretty and grand :)
we ate alot throughout the day too..and i barely felt hungry. haha..pastry fr this really classy bakery for brunch, risotto alla milanese for lunch, gelato for tea (?) and pizza for late dinner. hahaha.
and! we went to watch a soccer match at the san siro stadium (which, according to je, i was so lucky to be in already:p ) in milan between intermilan and siena. we were late and missed e first goal, but at least we caught the second. haha ok being an amateur, i only know how to look out for goals la haha and not how they play. and to be honest, i was dozing off (but that's because we hardly slept the nite before and looking at a big green patch with little ppl running ard with a ball kinda has a drowsy effect :p) haha but yea diane and i started poking each other to keep awake while huiling was so on. hehe. oh did i mention we ran to the stadium and UP the goodness noes how many steps to get to our seats for a soccer game. i couldnt believe myself but it was worth it :) it's really qt cool to see the enthusiasm of the fans as well, how their cheers were so synchronised and how they stood throughout the match cheering for their team.
went back and met huiling's apartment mates, and it's such a small world, everyone noes everyone. cant believe yoke was there 1 week before me at e same place. hee. yup anws, we slept bout 4 hours before waking up at 520am to nice smelling breakfast which huiling was preparing. so sweet :) thank you! we den left for the airport, and continued on our sleeping. haha..
photos will be up soon..i hope. (i realise i havent uploaded oxford picts haha)
yep it's monday again..so fast..jiayou jiayou jiayou..soon i'll be home! :)
