Making up for lost time

I'm sorry Mids! I know I promised to blog as soon as exams were over but I had to wait till I had something to blog about. ;) This past week has been a whirlwind of trips and goings-out. But then I do have an excuse - I've seen nothing but the inside of my room and the library for the past 6 weeks.

Monday
Finished my final paper!! Wheee!! And the weather was amazing for once. Bright and sunny, not a cloud in the sky. Like Mother Nature was celebrating along with us. =D I spent the whole day lazing about on the grass, reading fashion mags and eating ice-cream. Sigh. Bliss! Then it was Top B in the evening - 1 pound drinks, crap music, people-watching and dancing, rounded off with kebabs from the Burger Van at 1 in the morning. Perfect. It's been sooo long since I've done that.

Tuesday
Shisha at Aqua with Aishani, Neha, Kanu, Tara and Tarinni. Apple mint. Yum yum. =P Somehow shisha brings out the randomest conversations. I don't even remember what we talked about anymore but I know I couldn't stop laughing all evening.

Tara and I

Camwhoring was the order of the day!

The Tarinis. (eww my hair is yucky but I like these pictures so I'll let my vanity suffer =p)

According to these guys, I camwhore really well. =S Owe it all to you Wenz.. months and months of practice under your patient tutelage has turned me into a pro. Now I can pass along the gift.=P

Wednesday

Shopping with Quennezy and Zhiyi (my fellow Malaysians and Benes flatmates) in Birmingham, which is the nearest town with any decent shopping. Or as the Brits call it, Bham. We had yummy Japanese food in Mount Fuji and deliciously cold, sweet plum wine. And then it was shop shop shop till we drop drop dropped! Haha. It was soo good to go out shopping again. I must've tried on countless tops and trousers, sunnies, shoes! In the end all I got was this really cute corset-like top from Jane Norman. Why oh why don't they have Jane Norman in Malaysia?? And no, I'm not telling you how much it cost. =S

Thursday

I *was* going to spend a quiet day indoors but Shani called and off we were to watch Sex and the City in Coventry. Omg, the clothes, the shoes, the bags!!! I kept turning to Tarinni every few minutes to squeal about Carrie's shoes and she kept saying "watch the movie, not the shoes". Lol. I never really bothered with the series before but I'm starting to like it now.

Friday

I baked!! More specifically, Dimple baked and I helped. And ate the raw dough. Mmmm her cake is sooo good!! And there's a whole container of it sitting here tantalising me. No! I will resist! I did not work my ass off in the gym today to come back and put it right back on again. Geddit?? ' Work my ass off'? Haha. =p

And then we had pizza and garlic bread and watched Pretty Woman. Gosh I love Julia Roberts! She's amazing. And the guy - was it Richard Gere? *swoon*

Saturday

Back to good old Bham! Lol. Shopaholic much? Why, yes thank you. Actually Dimps and I went there to find her a dress for Final Fling. We hit Jane Norman first and fell in love with 2 gorgeous dresses. And then continued trawling the mall and high street for the next SEVEN hours but everything else paled in comparison. She must have tried on more than 20 dresses I think. My part in the project was to pick stuff off the racks and hand them to her. =p And of course I did my own bit of shopping in between. Got the awesomest pair of shades from Warehouse and a couple of tops from H&M. Me loves!! =D

And then we went back to Cov for dinner with a bunch of 3rd year friends at a yummy Thai restaurant. Then came back to campus and stayed up till 4 in the morning gossiping and catching up with everyone else who'd just finished their papers. It was actually bright out when I finally left to come home. Looong day.

Sunday

The only productive thing I did today was to go to the gym. And then I came back and polished off a burger because I was so ravenous after that. So maybe it wasn't quite so productive after all. =S

Long long week and more to come. Whee!! Bon Jovi on the 24th and then I'll be home on the 4th!! =D
