6th and Non-toxic week in the Bath place.
So, its been a month or 5 weeks to be more precise since I've left Malaysian-Land to come to the Bath-place to further studies. I'd like to tell you that I'm not missing home at all but NO, I think I'm homesick. YES.
Well as most of you already know, Bath is not a very big town, and don't provide you much entertainment, except night lah, you know what i mean. Yeah I'm saying like compared to busier places like Bristol and London or Manchester or Leeds, where the city is bigger and more developed. And you gets lots of shopping and plays and cinema and EMIRATES STADIUM, in the case of London. And you have lots of friends there too. I'm talking bout Good friends you already knew like years ago, of coures I have new friends here but its just different lah you know? Can chill chill all and talk all the bullshyt and lanku duo duo. And can shopping and watch football. Ok lets not just focus on the advantage of studying in London. I mean Bath is a really nice place to study and good for academic life. Bath University is a campus base Uni, not like all the uni's in London where is scattered around and just not-so-campus-life style. Its just different.
After class you can just go strolling around town alone.(Yes i know sounds sad but hey, its nice you know, can explore explore your town all then next time your friends come can bring them around). To seek peace or calmness or whatever is it to make you feel better after a whole day of tiresome work and lectures. The people and cars and time here are so slow moving, so human-friendly and lets you take a break out of the rat race. While walking you just meet lots of nice people with a smiling mask on their face, children cycling around, different varieties of shops and makan stores. Different type of cars. Old ancient building like the famous Bath Cathedral. Gives you Harry-Potter-eish feels. Then you can just walk by the river and waterfalls to chill and take pictures. And let the cold wind blow pass you. Not hot at all.
Speaking bout cold and low temperature. I think I westernised liao. Or rather kuai-lou-nise. I can just wear shorts and T-shirt outside there without feeling super cold. After football or basketball that is. But many people must wear all the jackets and sweaters. I simply walk out with my beg all and towel also no problem. Cool. Not sure why but maybe my body gives out lots of heat to protect me from the chills.
Well my sporting activities here is basically football, basketball and swimming in 1 week. I play football on Wednesday and Saturday Afternoon. Basketball on Sunday afternoon and swimming on the rest of other days when i feel like too. Judging by my fixed schedule for sports, seems like i settled in pretty well isn't it? Yah but its just so routine over here. I don't want to start complaining coz you might say whose life is not routine, but I feel it just lacks something.
I think i miss my family and friends. A lot. Ok not think, but i really miss them. And i miss MALAYSIA. SS19/SS15/Rio. Lol. Although i still go supper sometimes when my friends just knocked my window, but supper here is what, fries or kebabs or burgers? YES I'm talking bout Mamak here. The longer i stay in British land the more i feel like opening Mamak store in London. Will earn millions innit? Ok don't care bout the ingredients and rental cost and stuff, assuming I got all those settled and its successful. imagine. Whose up for it? Show me some hands!(or comments)
I hate the feeling of losing contact with people back there in KL. I mean. I don't go to my msn contact list to ask everyone how are they right? I don't want to just focus on what i'm doing here, I want to be back there and go out with you all! Theres just too many people i wanna go out with and like hang around..and just to keep up to date! I'm totally in dark now about how are some of my closest friends are doing. I'm sorry I dont do things like call back or sms everytime to ask how are you and stuff. Thank God for my flight on 16th December.
Lol. I know, I've been here for over a month and still no pictures of Bath place or Bath Uni or my Bath-room. Like what kind of blog is this right. I promise pictures will come soon. Sunday is studying day. And i try to go around snapping pictures of the Bath town and the Uni if i go library tomorrow la k. Then my room let me chap a bit before i snap pics. Mind you my room is 1 of the most tidy room in my house. *Proud* You shall see it soon. I will even take pic of the Arsenal pub i always go to watch Arsenal games and places around my area where i always go to la k. Then you can judge whether I'm having fun here or not. Of coures I haven't explore the whole Bath. Quite impossible now. But my house mate promised me to take me around bath with his cool Bike, you know those bike like Racing kind of Bike. Very yeng wan. They must wear special jacket and gloves everytime they ride it. Yah those kind. Then i can snap some pics too. Oh and you even get a big MAC store here and even HOT-AIR BALLOON rides at the park in Bath. Muahaha. Havent tried, see only. Sounds cool.
Well. Arsenal and Man U drew 2-2 today. Arsenal came back from 1-0 and 2-1 to snatch the equaliser on 91st min. And they are top of the table level on points with the Devils but with ONE GAME IN HAND. Classic. If we are still top by Christmas, then the EPL crown will come. I hope. After football at 3pm we went to play football at 4pm till 6pm in Uni with our usual teams. Then went to Nandos for dinner at 9.30pm. THere was fun fare and fireworks in Uni today. But i was too tired to go. Not like i havent seen fireworks before.(remember International Fireworks Competition in Putrajaya?)
So thats about it. I'm very tired now. I don't want to rant bout my studies and work. Thats why Sunday is study day. Which means Sunday is the time to finish all my work and catching up with everything I have left out. But all is fine. Take care people.
*p.s. prince KO status adi. No prince. Now is time to be some nerd. Maybe next week.
