Last paper! Mechanics of Deformable Solids. The paper was alright, at least i could do the questions, made a big error in calculations which lost me plenty of time but overall should be ok. and after that, exams are over!! Wohoooo. Went for nice lunch with friends after that. We were saying that we'll miss studying, how about meeting up later for a group study lol. Played dota till 5am!

Took a train down to London at 2pm which arrived at 4pm. The sceneries were really pretty as it snowed the day before. *was a little worried about the train skidding*
Upon arriving, I made my way to aunt Julia’s house at South Clapham. She prepared a nice ‘Bak Kut Teh’ dinner for me and handed me a menu of meals for the next 2 days. Totally O.O-ing as I stared at the choices of food. Finally gave Laura her Christmas present, a koala soft toy which she seems to like it so I’m quite happy.
Next day, my aunt prepared ‘Chee Chiong Fun’ for breakfast. I was suppose to meet Sheen and A at 1.30 but she msged saying she was already at South Ken at 12.30. Rushed my way to S.Ken to meet up with them. Sheen brought me to ‘The Hummingbird Bakery’ just outside S.Ken tube station where she bought me 4 cupcakes for my bday present *they taste awesome!* and for my aunt and Laura which my aunt later gave a keychain to her.
Then we headed to ‘GBK’ to have lunch. Gossiped and did some catching up with them about what’s going on. After lunch, they brought me for a mini tour around Imperial College *it’s huge* before heading to Hyde Park for a stroll. We took a few pictures beside the lake before heading back.
Reaching South Clapham, I noticed a sign saying that the station will be closed for the next day and the day after. So I walked to Balham (10mins) and Calpham Common(15mins) to see how far they were . Checked out the bus routes before heading back.
The next morning, I woke up at 9 as my aunt was having some guest over breakfast. I watched over the kids while the adults have their time. They left around 10.30 and I clean up the place before heading upstairs to shower. I met up with Sheen, Nes, Loong and A at 12 for lunch at a restaurant called ‘Fox & Hare’ which offers asian cuisine.
Placed our orders and we started chatting. Nes gave me a box of donuts for my bday, well not just any donut, they’re a dozen of Krispy Kreme donuts!! Wohoo can’t wait to try them. Our food came and I enjoyed my bowl of curry laksa. *why does this post sounds like it’s revolving around food*
Then we headed upstairs to Nes’s place for a visit and chill out. Loong and Nes had an appointment at 2.30 but they’ll be back after an hour so me, Sheen and A went to the Starbucks downstairs for a drink. I fiannaly had my frap after a long long time while Sheen shared her venti cup of hot choc with A. The cup was bound for a new owner haha. After an hour, Nes and Loong came back to join us along with Nimalan. We started talking about old times and time flew by..
Before I knew it, it was already 6 and we bid farewell to each other. Came back to aunt’s place to have dinner and I’m here blogging after that. My train back to Sheffield tomorrow is at 9.30am, guess I better sleep early tonight.
I had the best time coming down to London because of my aunt and awesome friends. Thanks to my aunt Julia for such awesome hospitality, Sheen for the cupcakes and Agnes for the donuts. But most of all thanks for meeting up and having such a nice chat together. =)
