reading week is coming to an end!

nah, didn't manage to get to stonehenge. but i did go to birmingham for sports' day and had a toilet break in oxford. and no, didn't see the prestigious oxford university. but university of birmingham reminded me of purdue. there's a clock tower, the union has everything that the students need, (bank, atm machines, canteens, printing store, and even a travel agency) the school complex is surrounded by greenery, exactly like purdue.

and don't talk about the games. we basically lost in every single match. i took part in basketball. three games total, all in which we were beaten 14-nil. just realized how hard it was to actually dribble, pass and try to get the ball into the basket. especially we were a 4-women-and-1-guy team, while the other schools consisted of all guys. it was fun though. many people cheered, 'ucl, ucl!' and i guess that sorta boosted our morale a lil bit though we didn't win eventually. :P

oh, i took a ride on london eye too! turned out to be a slow and boring 30 minute ride. but managed to snap some good pictures and yes...my tripod isn't collecting dust anymore. tried some restaurants claimed to have good food, but it was just normal food. and i haven't been to the gym yet! shame shame shame on me! i only have 2 more weeks to make attempts to exercise, otherwise, it's a goodbye to my precious 25 pounds.

okay, enough of this week's rambles. some good pics for you guys to enjoy!
