2nd day and its already laundry day...

Day 2,

this place is just so awesome and beautiful. but the weather is as usual acting up abit.. International Welcome week has started was pretty fun.. finally I'm not the only one in my flat. just found that out. Got myself a bonus Card from Iceland, they are basically a budget store and they sell lots of stuffs between 0.50~ 5 pounds max i think But most of it are between 1-3 pounds.. Pizza, burger, bacon, ham, water, Best thing is 3 liters of Sprite for only 1.75 or 1.25 i cant rmb but its relatively reasonable on the food side..

Laundry, its 3 pounds each time I do the laundry, 2pounds for wash and 1 pound for drying.. i hope my jeans don't shrink. Its on delicates so hopefully it will be okay..
i'll be needing a Proper Ironing board, i have one here but its a bit worn and torn..

the kitchen is awesome, the freezer is bigger than the fridge, comes with an oven,stove and a hood. its pretty messed up in it as it looks well used.. will be needing kitchen utensils soon.

met up with loads of germans.. they are cool and awesome!!! its just so fun being ard with them..

University life..

after years in the dark i have come back to blogging, This place is so awesome its just a waste not to blog abt it..
1st day in Universiry of Glamorgan, gonna spend the next 3 years here for my Degree in Aeronautical Engineering,

Pontypridd its just amazing, the scenery, the ambient, it rained today but then again it happens here. so i'll have to adjust to this cold, gloomy rain weather..
the hall that i'm staying in atm its like Chinatown, there's a few from China i think, one korean and a few more chinese descendent. so yeah. i'm the Only half Chinese and i am a half bucket full Banana, its gonna be interesting..

Met a Lithuanian dude, he's cool, and a few Germans, its still pretty empty here at the moment and its like a small ghost town. nothing at all, just buildings and more buildings..

Pontypridd is a great town, its like Diagon Alley but its a street and its all there, shops, banks, groceries, u name it.. will be going back there again later to get some kitchen utensils, notepads, and some other essential items... FOOD, there's a pound stretcher shop which has lots of things on sale for £1. i have food for a few days now and gonna buy more soon to stock up... it seems that everything closes on campus by 5.30 and after that nothing unless u head down to the pubs and bars down in Pontypridd or near the Treforest rail station...most shops except eateries closes at 5.30-6 and some are not open on sundays...

The weather has been mean, it rains, drizzle, den it pours.. and its VERY temperamental. it was a wet night ytd, am hoping for a better day today.. i wanna take those awesome shots... C:

thats all for day one... day two today we'll see how it goes..
