I better update my blog before I will be bombarded with interviews as well as having to research on each company before I get to them. I shall be posting more up on flickr rather than here when things start to get busy.

If any of you are feeling lost in my Flickr album, click here. Think it'll be more strategic looking at the photos from here :)

Hokai, here we go

British Museum (10.07.08)
The weather was out, I got excited, me and D shot off for a walk to the British Museum via a short cut. I came across really nice building that I couldn't help but to take a photo eventhough I know I'm gona be here for a while...

Anyway, I stumbled across really nice flowers in front of the buildings and I couldn't stop thinking about mum :). I took photos for her.

We went through a park on the way to the museum and stumbled across a squirel so nearby! Apparently, it was the only one we saw at that time of the day and I took a clip just for you YJ, Hehe...


When we arrived to the museum, it was super huge!! Like 5 times bigger than Auckland. It was really a historical museum as there were heaps of artifacts displayed. As we went into the building, it turned into a dome, in which we think that we can come here anytime whenever we are bored.

We passed through egypt, greek and bits of others but we were amazed with one room where this professor used to collect pieces of specimens and collections all over the world. Man, so much to see.

After that, we went and meet up with a friend out at the entrance and we had dim sum at china town. Gosh, super greasy, I think it was the cheapest alternative to go to.

After that, D's friends took us to Harrods out at Knightsbridge (Woohoo!) which was nearabouts Piccadaly Circus tube and this is where I see London crowd. Sales everywhere, all packed with people!! Not only that, we also went out to Piccadaly Circus, Oxford Circus and I can tell you that there are perhaps huge shops everywhere across the centre tube line stops.


I manage to secure myself a nice introductory package of Biotherm that I was wanting to buy from Malaysia and got it for a really cheap price. Not only that, the kind sales lady gave us more samples to try on too! I learnt about new cheap as shops like H&M (where they update their stock every season) and Primark (£4 for a shirt and tie)

We came home with our legs aching but I was happy to finally see SHOPS and I bought something hehe.

Friday (11.07.08)
I went shopping nearby out place and found a market (Chapel market) and a mini shopping mall (Like Westfield pakuranga) nearby. Bought stuff from Sainsbury (Another 'pak n save' place) and walked home carrying about 10kgs worth of groceries. There are offers going around and some stuff were cheap and some were not.

Weekend
Went out to Kensington (East) where I went for a free dermalogica class. They do heaps of stuff like jewellery making, pilates etc and I got my face studied again. It was really nice and interesting but it took a Massive long time to get back as the bus had to go through Oxford Street (Like Queen Street, with pedestrian crossings) and Weekend crowd was CRAZY. Never in my life I've seen so many people walking!

Even at night time, feels like a 'pasar malam' with no pasar hehe. We went and met up with friends for drinks out at Leceister Square and got home earlier to rest.

On Sunday, we checked out Canary Wharf out East. This area consist of amazing tall buildings who were mainly own by banks, and my eyes went o.O when I saw these buildings...they are TALL!! As though as I feel like I'm in New York. Also, this area is privately owned, so much so that they have security taking care of the border and they are also situated near the river, where they have the right to lift the bridges up to increase security. Quite interesting. Check the photos out!

Today
Just went through a few agencies. Big interviews tomorrow...
