Why?
Today is a perfect day for me !!! 完美的一天 ;)
Why?
This afternoon, one of the boss from liverpool paid a visit to our lab again!! Of course, there was free lunch after the little visit of his. The lunch was held at the old library cluster, i had a baked cod in scallots and thyme, accompanied with a bottle of "Fanta" ( carbonated lemonade with sweetner). The cod was in baked in a cream based sauce with bacons bits, scallots and some thyme. I was allowed to choose 2 sides dishes to accompany my baked cod. The 2 side dishes i chosen were boiled brussel sprouts and ginger shredded cabbage. My whole main course cost about 4.75 pounds not inclusive of the drink. So expensive!! Must pray hard....that the liverpool boss come often!!
Then went back to my lab, continue with my assigned experiments......Did UV- Vis experiment, did some data entry for my results...plotting graphs....with my full stomach!!
Out of the mist of my work, i stumbled across the school website......."Tonight they having a carolling service in one of the churches in the city center." They stated that there will be free wines and mincepies and performances. I was so delighted, logged in to MSN....to ask the guys whether they want to accompany me or not!! 4.30pm le.... experiments did finish...so decide to make my way home!! WeeeeeeeeeH! Flew home to come online and chatted with my brother & mum online. Heard some gd news, so happy!! And chatted with some friends over MSN, happily chatting...while waiting for Delwyn to get ready.
6pm left house, went to St Thomas. The whole church was lighted, however the main entrance was dark. Both of us thought that we were late, maybe the person in charge shut the entrance. We walked around the church, desperately to find a back door entrance. However we did not manage to....so like abit gave up hope. I went to the main entrance and push the door, the glass door opened. The entrance was dark, after the glass entrance door there was another main door. I pushed open the main door, the priest was conducting a service. Both of us were looking at each other, thinking are we in the correct place? Haha..till i saw the name tag on one of the people in charge..saw the Uni logo. Yes is the correct place. One song was sung...which brought back some secondary school days feeling. I do like carolling...i love the songs that the church usually sing. Very nice...especially my sec days where every start of the school term, there will be mass which i was forced to attand. Those days were like, so hot in the hall, with my tie in my collar, somemore must endure the numbness in my knees where sitting with my legs cross-legged. AiloooYa!!! Mary lah....all that would be humming in my hot head.
KK, back to the carolling...
The christmas song was sung...then priest said " okie this is the last song! Please enjoy the wine, orange juice and mincepies." Heheh.....time for eating!! The mincepie is very nice, i think it is only available during Christmas season. It contains raisins, orange peel and some sweet stuffs. I ate 2 of it....and drank one glass of wine. Not born with a sweet tooth, the bitter wine was nice companion to have with the sweet mincepie. Oh ya...we were so delighted to find out the mincepie we ate were from the "Greggs" each cost about 60 pences. Wah save alot!! Happy!!
After the eating and drinking, we went to city center to shop and walked around. I was telling Delwyn whether Ferwrick having any reduced price sandwiches. Cos everytime i passed by Ferwrick i wanted to taste their Damn nice sandwiches.....but they are very expensive. Hence we went in and true enough. They having some reduced price sandwiches. haha very happy got each other a sandwich. Each cost 1.10 pounds. Olsen never came along with us..dun know whether he want so never get for him. After all, he is a walking boney...not need to eat one loh!! I sure kena from him!!
Then went to the Christmas Fair....saw alot nice sweets, chocolates and fudges.....Lucky i not that carve for them. They had christmas tree make of chocolates...very nice!! I sampled on some cheese and sausages. OMg the dried sausages like uncooked meat....very horrible!! The cheese was very nice... Maybe i will get some home from Amsterdam!! DEpends on My $$
Then went to CO-ops, to get some stuffs...and went home!!
So fruitful....is really a 完美的一天 !!!
