The long awaited A380!!
The flight was NOT fun at all! The first six hours was still bearable but the latter seven hours is just nonsense. Dubai was great, I mean the airport because I can't leave that place. But even within the air conditioned place you can tell that the place is really warm. I tried to look around for Burj Khalifa but failed as well.
The next seven hours is the zombie moment. I forced myself to sleep so that I have energy to go through the day in London and Cardiff. I watched Ratatouille, Up and Mulan.
I landed in London, no one asked me for my X-Ray, which make check out fast and clean.
Heathrow is .. normal. Cardiff University (CU) got us a bus and we all travel to Cardiff which is almost three hours away from London. It's almost the same time from KL to Ipoh. The difference is that instead of hills and forests, we get plains, horses, sheep and cows.
My bedroom. Not too bad eh!
The view from my window.
The law building, which is 2 minutes away from my hostel <3
I went a little exploring on the third day after settling my student ID and bank.
People on the west are so used to walking. Walking is really the main way of getting about. The first few times where I had to buy things, I wanna literally dump all of those goods and walk. They're so heavy!!
Anyway, day three is meant for walking with no shopping. So I brought the camera out!
Cardiff Market. I love this place after the first favourite.
Re-known Wales Millenium Centre. The shot that is only seen in brochures.
This is my number one favourite place; Cardiff Bay!! Too bad it has to be so far away from my hostel. I walked over 10km that day. I felt awesome.
And I'm still feeling awesome! Hahahaha!
Full album HERE.
I feel so thankful for people who helped me prepare and settle down here in Cardiff. The staff and the students from the all-powerful Student Union are extremely helpful and friendly.
My first friend in Cardiff? Daisy!
You can tell that I really like her. Since she's appearing here. Heh.
I'm looking at three weeks of induction programme. Next week they're having the societies fair. Yes, I'm already eye-ing at the Anime Society. HAH!
I'm picking up Welsh as I go now. It's inevitable! Everything here is dual language. I may not know how to pronounce it yet but I'll learn. There's this thing called Google Translate.
The POWER OF GOOGLE!
...
I actually just tried it. It's so difficult to pronounce!!
Sounds like Arabic in some way. And after Emirates, I feel like learning Arabic too! Hahaa!
Oh, and did I mention I no jetlag? XD
