Southampton

Yesterday me and ninghan went to Southampton for a day trip.. visiting dear Claire :) 2hr bus ride from Victoria, its not far. We spent the day happily and lazily walking along the high street..window shopping.. had an extremely nice yummy milkshake at this place called 'Shakeaway' where u can have absolutely everything and anything u want as a milkshake! ninghan ordered e one which is mixed oreo/strawberrycheesecake, mine is choc fudge brownie/cheesecake, claire's skittles..so yummy!! Then had lunch at a pub, called Cowherds..its a smoke-free pub, v.cosy inside, food also nice. Went back to Claire's house (yeap, a house, proper house..unlike us the poor souls in London who had to live in flats). Spent the whole afternoon there, played monopoly, talked2 and catching up. Went back, and basically i just slept! until this morning when I went to ride Loki as usual. :)

I admire people who are strong. I was thinking it over yesterday, how angmo's are so different from us, asians. Most of them seem to be very.. able to take things in their stride really well if they are faced with problems (a bit hard to explain..err..). I don't know how they are able to do that, really..cultural difference i guess.
