In Aberystwyth


This was taken in the train, right after the 'crying-at-the-railway station' episode... walnut n puffy eyes + pale face huh, gosh... :-/

oooh... finally arrived... after a longggg journey... esp with my HEAVY luggage...

was totally captivated by the sea view outside The Old College, where the class took place...

beautiful... at any time of the day; with any mood of the weather... :)

The Old College, where we have our classes... cool isn't it, a friend said it is very Harry-Potter-Style... perhaps we should all be carrying brooms... ;p

strolling along during a morning break, accompanied with the breeze n a cuppa coffee... :)

love this view...

The sun only gets sleepy around 9:12pm, UK time... actually this had always been my main issue with summer in the UK - the sun stays up far too long, for my personal preference. i simply couldn't handle this in the past... but beginning to get easier with it now... gotta do with age i supposed :)

practising, during a lunch break...

In the Uni hostel. Yep, curtains are always drawn up, no matter what is the weather outside, and it is obviously SUNNY in this case... that's me!

Galaxy Chocolate & i went a long way... i started loving it since 12 years ago, and it was my daily dosage at one point... however, had lost sight of it since i got back to singapore coz i can't seem to get hold of any of these back home. Grabbing hold of it all over again after 9 years... i realise i'm still loving it! Some sentiments just doesn't go away, does it? Time is so patient, and can be so so sweet... :)

Chelsea Bun... my favourite :)

Chelsea Bun + Latte... perfect! ;)

had this for dinner last night, after many days of lagsane/pizza/pasta... and it tasted heaven ;p

We went out one afternoon to view the Kite-feeding. This is what we're aiming at...

...and this is the amount of work involved...

After the Kite-feeding, my bunch of mates are in for this...

... while i'm hoping to do my pretty afternoon tea... ;p

Coffee & scone, not quite exactly how a traditional english afternoon tea should be like, but it's definitely MY typical version of afternoon tea ;p

Coffee+ scone + diary... enough to squander my whole afternoon away, happily... :)

Yeah you're right, i stood on my bed, which was absolutely the most sensible thing to do when i gotta do the self-timer shot at the level of the shelf ;p

yet another self-timer shot... again, standing on the bed... ;p

In One of the afternoon discussions, which took place in this pretty Tea Room... :)


Apparently, i'm the youngest teacher in this course... the most senior being Gillian, a heroic lady in her 76 :)

The keyboard of...

a chamber pipe organ...

awesome view, isn't it... :)

A seagull... i was waiting for it to flap its wings, but it didn't...

Our Fish&Chips takeway evening...

We did Angels cards in the class today... and this card really touched me rrrrightttt there... on the button!

As i read on, tissues were offered from all directions... coz i was crying non-stop n just couldn't stop my tears... I was completely filled with amaze n disbelief - the one single card that we had each chosen for ourselves was incredibly relevant to our very own issues at this moment, n it was totally relatable... Truly amazing!!!

On my normal days, I would only order the same one item from the menu, occasionally the other, but it would never have been this - Mocha with marshmellows & creams! Coz marshmellow are, more than often, too sweet for my liking. However, on that particular afternoon when i decided to add a little alteration to my ordering habit, i was delightfully surprised to discover that THIS was exactly what i NEED at that very moment, and it really DID inject into me, that required amount of warm energy which i badly needed that VERY afternoon... i was soon drowning into the luxurious cream n the yummy marshmellows!

Inside The Old College... near the entrance...

Sue & me...

My home is right at the other other other end... :)
