What a Night!
Adrian out of his willingness came to pick us up again for mass. About 10 of us went to SFX for mass. After mass, we met up with Dr. Ignacio and went to Chuan Lee to have dinner. Superb dinner as you can see. On the way back the van's engine just suddenly died. We prayed and prayed and prayed but the engine just wouldn't start up. We took turns trying to start the van until the battery sounded like a dead horse after all that trying. Adrian had to call friends over at SFX to come and bring us home. Then all at the same time, 4 cars arrived at the site and we were brought home. This time we really owe Adrian and his friends one. We are so blessed that Adrian has always been so open and happy of sharing his Saturday evenings with us even though there might be better things for him to do. Maybe next time we should stay back for Lifeline or something instead of going out to eat somewhere else. I think that would definitely make Adrian's day and ours!

Look who came to Glasgow?
Yes, I finally met Michelle the Goose after 1.5 years of not seeing her! Isnt it nice and exciting? For the uninitiated, Michelle was/is? from M203 and she was our CSS punya president before me (2004/2005).
It was so nice lo, she was supposed to be in Glasgow for a concert/orchestra, but in the end she sold her ticket to one of my batchmates, and just stayed with me at my place, catching up, after which we headed out to town and had some late dinner at this bar/diner.
I dont feel so bad anymore, now that I jumpa Mich again. It's like having CSS around with me, so that is good enough.
Everyone who misses her, dont jealous ye? Hihi. At the same time, dont forget to miss me too.

Well, Hi!! It's me, the hot one. Round of applause everybody. Hihi.
Well, as it is, I dont have my internet yet. We are able to go online now pun because we're using seniors' accounts, our accounts yet to be activated.
So far everything's good. The weather is just nice. Food is great, I've been to a Japanese restaurant and a famous English tea house already, how cool is that? Haha. My godbro and his sis brought me around the other day, so I dont feel too bad and lonely. I have a new UK mobile, so just mail me or anything if u want it ya. (U guys must msg me once in a while!) The only unfortunate thing that has happened so far is the fact that I got sick, still am sick in fact. Had to run out of lab today because of a dry coughing fit. Of all times huh!
Hmm.. What else. Oh, I'm supposed to put pictures I suppose, but I've been having bad hair days! I did my hair just before I left and the guy go and cut my fringe a tad too short. Reminds me of Michiebun's coconut hair. =b Maybe when my internet is up ye.
For the record, I dont think Glasgow is dirty pun. Scary got lah, majority of the buildings are gothic. I looked up at the top of the buildings half-expecting to see gargoyles. Seriously! Oh, the view from my window is overlooking another block of flats. I looked out of a window one morning to menghirup udara segar and lo and behold, I saw someone's naked bum in one of thewindows of the opposite building. Eek!
Eunice, Diana and I went to St Mungo's church last week for mass. It's a small church, but the people were most welcming. They talked to us after mass. The priests there are Passionists, never heard of that order before until last wkd. Might be going to another church where the priests are Jesuits next week, see how its like. I miss FR Simon.
Ok Im done blabbing for now. I must check on my rice, see? I'm cooking. I refuse to eat microwave food!
Lots of love,
Daphie

Greetings from Glasgow
Yes Iggy, I finally got my internet connection. So you wanted to see photos.. this is one we took at George Square this morning. We're doing well but getting food is a problem so we have to cook everyday. Classes are starting tomorrow (Monday) sigh. We've been going out everyday since we arrived here. Glaswegians love shopping but sad to say it's not a very clean city here. It's something like KL with rubbish here and there on the streets. It's summertime now and we've been getting the sun everyday so it's about 18-20 degrees but it is much colder at night. I'm waking up early every morning cos it gets bright at 4 am and it only gets dark at 10 or 11 at night. Not complaining though cos we won't see much of daylight during the winter *sob*.
