Of course there's the pleasure during the 25 days of hectic. Nothing can beat cuddling with your loved one during a cold, windy and rainy season. Such comfort, such warmth in such a cold city! Ahh, thinking of it makes me feel warm inside already. The down side of it was the length of his trip (2 measly weeks! But it's considered pretty generous I suppose since he has to pay for his accommodation on a daily rate £££). Le sigh. Nonetheless, it's a good break from LDR. Real (physically) head butts, hugs and kisses yey! I missed, enjoyed and miss every bit of it. The farewell at Heathrow was difficult knowing that I won't be seeing him for the next 4 freaking months and the fact that he'll be in army by the time I head back! & many other LDR related things...
Anyway, let's move on. Pictures to roughly illustrate how the past 25 days zoomed by:
Went to catch a concert at O2 stadium! I nearly pulled out of this (I really did consider selling the ticket away) but someone decided to treat me to it :D
Huuuuuge crowd, as usual! I like vibe inside the stadium. I don't mean the over-enthusiastic-and-excited-until-violence-start-to-develop kind of vibe. I mean the YEY!!! kind of vibe... you know what I mean?!
Woooooooot all the pretty lights and projections and singing and roaring and jumping and woot woot woot!
Just in case you guys still have no idea which concert I went to. That was a random ticket. We weren't jostling amongst the crowd. (oh thank goodness!)
With the guys who went: Shaun, Boobs and Naz! :D
Pretty good lunch with love @ Pitcher and Piano (?) near campus. It was his last week of the trip :( I realised I took VERY VERY VERY little pictures during his trip which is mega disappointing! :( :( :(
Starbucks with the 2 Abbey guys! Naz and Momo. Was supposed to have Serene there but she had to furniture shop on that day :( (was that really the reason?)
Mo, his blackberry and Shaun. & the random guy looking over his shoulder. We were chased out of the Starbucks by a community officer just because our drinks had been cleared. He assumed that we didn't get any drinks but that is so not true! Each of us got one >:( Anyway, momo left (got to see his new dig) and the 3 of us went for the most overpriced Indian dinner ever. Think £10+ for like a bowl of rice and some meat. & naan too, if that helps to make it seem like it's worth the money (no way ho say).
Oh, what's that? It's a chandelier!
Comes Saturday, Shaun and I went to catch a musical! Spontaneous (or rather, lack of planning -boo me- idea) plan. We had CTC graduation dinner about an hour after the musical. Phantom of the Opera, it was reaaaaaally good and super touching! Why Christineeeeee, whyyy... *cries a river*
CTC dinner, met up with familiar faces and teachers! As shown here are Mr Spiers and us (with Boobs, Pyinnie, Calvin and Regina)
Goodness, it seems like just yesterday when you turned back to introduce yourself!
& after the ceremony, the subtle madness begins!
Oops, during the ceremory. 4As! Good job, very proud of you :D
Calvin, stoning as usual.
With Sunnnnnnnyyy! :D
The person who makes good chicken rice and Jesssss :D
Not one of the best of the set but I found this candid.
With Oxford man and Oxford applicant! :)
On the train back. Rofl at Boobs' pose!! Reminds me of a potato man.

On the last evening before he departs and on our anniversary (omg 1 year already can you imagine?!), he decided to take me to LITTLE BAY for dinner! It's the one in Croydon too. As he said, the circle of life, haha! :D
The profiteroles weren't that good :( but everything else was awesome! We had A LOT of food and I was about to explode by the time we left the restaurant.

It has been quite a year. All those laughter and tears and cold wars and annoying one another and sharing and trying to make you open up to me and cheering one another up and goofing around and you acting as if you are kicking/punching me and me actually kicking and punching you for real and trying to study but end up fooling around and sleeping and movie and sleeping and movie and sleeping and movie and spitting at one another and squeezing your nose and squeezing my fats and indomie and hugs and kisses and asking for kisses and... everything we've done, I truly enjoyed every moment we spend together. I'm definitely blessed that I'm together with you ♥ty
Ahh... life.
