Glasgow: Spending my last few days of 2005...2006 Starts!!!

Ok i don't really remember what happened exactly on those last few days but here goes ( lazy to write blog la) :

1) 22nd December : Slept almost whole day because was tired after coming back from Spain on the 21st December.

2) 23rd December: Called premieship to confirm working on Boxing Day and went out to Tesco to buy groceries. (Boring boring) Did tong yuen with friends at SV place

3) 24th December: Had christmas dinner with batchmates at SV place. Bought one gigantic chicken and a turkey. Took almost four hours to stuff and grill the chicken an turkey. Was really full that night and KJ gave us christmas presents and cards that night thanks for being Santa =)

4) 25th December: Merry christmas !!!! Every shop was close so it was whole day sitting at home watching christmas programmes on television.

5) 26th December: Woke up at 7am to wait in line for Next shop to open. Shopped until 11am before walking to Celtic to work. One of the most tiring day in my life

6) 27th December: Preparing for KJ and SV birthday...J n WK went out to buy the stuff while we distracted SV to go shopping with me n LY. By night everything was ready we bought 3 cakes. We celebrated for SV first (first cake) and present him with his gifts. Then we waited for KJ arrival and then celebrated with the 2nd cake before giving extraordinary 'gifts'. Finally the third cake was for both of them and we had pictures taken.

7) 28th December: Didn't sleep the whole night cause was talking to my friend till 7am then I followed KJ and others to edinburgh zoo. Was really tiring and my whole body aching. And the purpose we went there was to see a polar bear but sadly the bear was so dirty with mud that turned out looking like a normal brown bear. Slept throughout in the train because was exhausted.

8) 29th December: Snowed at our hostel!!! Finally after so long hearing our seniors and grand seniors experienced it in the past years. We played sleigh (black plastic bag) and build snowman. Regretted by night when i fracture my leg for sliding into a wall =(

9) 30th December: Took SV friends out to walk around Scotland. Leg was  hurting badly and felt what would happened during new year celebration.

10) 31st December: Took 10am bus to Edinburgh. Went to illusion centre with SV friends. SV and WK also took the funfair rides while the others envy them =P There were a lot of rides and games to play there and we tried throwing the ring around the bottle cause the prize were big ones. Sadly, wasted two pounds so you know how I end up. By night everyone was crowding along the streets ready for Edinburgh Hogmanay New Year Celebration. We went and hang out at Starbucks cause it was too cold outside. Finally it was countdown time...10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1...Boom 2006 Year has begun!!!! It was the most beautiful two minute display of fireworks. When everything ended, we found out that the bus station was closed so we had to sleep in the streets. Only two words to describe that night : Near Death....

11) 1st January: Praise the  Lord!!! Finally made it back to Glasgow which was warmer and missed my room so much. Okie it was just one day but my life was almost reaching its end thanks to the icy cold weather. Not kidding ask those who suffered with me.

12) 4th January: A special day...

It was a great 2005 for me. I had battered through exams, pain and suffering( a bit exaggerated) and obstacles that eventually went well. My life now is much better and thanks to those who guide me through and my parent's support I start 2006 with a brighter view =)
