work attachment~
Its freezing! especially at the dog and cat home that I'm working at for the week xDTemperature is about 0 degrees-ish, cause its by the sea! haha Its so much fun though! Yesterday I started with bathing some boarding dogs that are set to go home, so much fun! well lifting the dogs into the showering tub was kinda hard, especially if it was a german shepard! xD haha and they'd shake and soak you with all the shampoo and water :) hee~ Walking dogs! haha did alot of that! They have 3 paddocks where we're supposed to bring each dog individually and let them off the leash to run around. :) many stray, but they know how to fetch! My hands were freezing, but its all worth it! ^_^There was this really little terrier that I thought was a puppy cause it was so small! It was 13 years old! woah haha it kept on whining and refused to eat, so someone brought it in the kitchen and fed it some food. It was more active and ate the food, it just wanted company I guess, aww :)It had some goo in its left eye, so I grabbed some cotton and wiped it away and I moved on to the other eye. It was so fluffy, so I was looking in the fur for its other eye...omo! I just found the socket, no eye! :/ don't know what happened though, the owner never mentioned it O.o...Its a really cute doggie though :) The dogs there are so well kept and managed. Honestly, none of them actually look like strays and rather like boarders to me. I think its sad that anyone gives up any dog. :(..but to a nice home like that, it doesn't seem so bad. Well I was sorting out christmas food donations by the public and supermarkets. woah! so much food! and carts of it come in everyday! Nice people :)You know, I don't think you'd see this happen back home. Weird isn't it? Everyone I know that owns a dog or cat loves em like a family member, but why is it the spca doesn't get enough to keep strays? I heard they put down animals because of this, I hope it isn't true!They say a pet is for life, I think thats true, don't you?Haven't done anything with the cats though, well there isn't much to do with them actually hahaI've seen them though, pretty things :)Oh the movie enchanted is really nice btw, go watch it :)Happy holidays everybody! I know lots of ya are back home! lucky bums! x) haha have fun! :))days past by fast enough when your having fun~ ^_^

christmas special! :)
It's so cool! There's this german market thats apparently set up here around this time of the year! Tons of shops and rides, well to fit in a park! I went with steph twice in 2 days! haha it's so nice! ^_^
It was 0 to -1 degrees when we visited the german market at princes street!
The hot crepe helped :D and oh my it was so yummy!

all those rooftops at the many stalls :)

stalls :) selling really neat stuff, like candlelights, cute wooden
toys, authentic biscuits and chocolate, crepe! xD, hot dogs,
little figurines, lotsa cute hats...haha christmasy stuff! :))

ooh..not to forget, the fortune teller! Just like in the movies,
she tells the fortune in her own carriage! we forgot to visit her.
I didn't manage to see if she had one of those crystal balls :(
haha but cool anyways yes?

ooh the pretty ferris wheel! Also there's a carousel, a big slide,
a flying wheel, a mini outdoors ice skating rink, and a few
smaller rides for younger kids :)

we only sat on the ferris wheel haha someone was freaked out xD
It was freezing up there! I couldn't stop laughing for some reason...
hee~

There's that big slide. Pretty, and looks fun, but not worth
paying to slide down on. haha

We spotted Liyenn! she was at the ice skating rink waiting
for her pbl mates. Couldn't go skating with them because her
ankle hadn't healed yet...aww its ok! we'll go next time okays!
^_^
The ice skating rink! its cool that they installed it for christmas!
we didn't skate though, I think it was 9 pounds? haha I'll wait till
I go to London! ^_^ yay!
Oh! 2 more days of school and its the holidays! Ok I have attachment for 1 week and studying to do for my exams but, its not gonna stop me from having fun! :) yay!! so happy.
Everyones going home! Have a safe trip there and back and do have a nice time! ^_^

^_^ ~mwee
haha just went for the nottingham games yesterday, and what can I say? I think it was the bestest day since university started! I guess its cause I got to see so many friends from all over the uk! :)
We left at 1am from appt tower for nottingham. 6 & 1/2 hour bus ride! I've been on longer rides, so i'm kinda okay with it..but, its hard if you can't sleep! I think I was too excited! haha I dunno, it felt like going on one of those field trips!! I always loved those! :D haha I usually sleep early, but I was so awake that sam thought I was drunk! haha I wasn't! Maybe I was abit too high :)
But gee the bus ride was so uncomfortable! haha steph and I were trying to get into a comfortable position, not that we did, but I did manage to sleep for about 2hrs xD haha oh no...
Sadly we had our netball game somewhere away from the sports centre...almost everyone was there! It was freezing! We had to play outdoors...brr! It was pretty fun actually, well most competitors were nice and friendly and so were my teammates, never met half of them haha. We had so many breaks that steph and I started piggybacking, jumping, doing funny push ups, haha random stuff xD. We played 5 games and well only won one actually, but we were all still smiling and also during the last game against I forgot who, when they were scoring like mad, why were we smiling and laughing? haha cool~
Friends!..I saw lynnette(in the toilet actually haha xD), roy, steph ong, aruna, we rin, istee, joanne, philly, hannah, brandon, benson, adrian, tiffany, ye ring, yun mei, lay wei and some seniors...^_^
It was just aaahh! hug hug when I saw them :) haha rin saw me first though. I was walking from the basketball half of the sports hall to the volleyball section thinking that I'd at least see maybe istee (she's really good at volleyball btw x)) and I couldn't see anybody! I stood there glancing around and suddenly someone jumped and hugged me from the back.. WE RIN!! :) hahaha aww~ "how are you! how are you!" haha I couldn't count how many times she said that xD we just couldn't stop talking! haha
we didn't have time to take those many photos cause you guys kept winning! haha grats though! its alright, glad I got to see and chat with you even though it was only that little bit ^_^It was also funny with aruna xD. We both didn't know each other was going! I found out first that he was there, and as expected, playing basketball haha :).
You played well okies, happy I saw you...again soon okays! ^_^ Brandon still the same, mean and trying to spread rumours about me! haha lay wei believes me! hah! :D
Got back at 1am early this morning, it was raining and we seemed to have brought the cold back with us! To think I was telling everyone edinburgh was warmer than nottingham, it WAS. haha its just colder here, now.
Had a nice sleep ^_^ I guess having backaches today explains the sleeping on the bus.xD
I'll add some photos later :) didnt take as much as I wanted though.
Okies back to work!
I was starting to tear as I said goodbye, realised how much I miss you guys. I'm just really happy I got to see you all again. Is there such a thing as feeling absolutely happy? yesterday was one of those special days I guess :)gomawoyo, saranghe~ ^_^
