ber'weekend' di kota keriangan

Last friday, housemates(except for aisyah), fiqah(ahli rumah ke-7 ;-p) and myself went to London by train. we spent 2 nights in london (courtesy of azie and aunty fatimah *wink*)...

we arrived in london at eleven-ish at night, azie picked us up at london's train station and we headed straight to azie's place which is located in edgware road. that night, we slept late, gossiping with azie and nusrah, updating each other with hot news in both london and nottingham..hahaahaha...

the next day, our never-ending outing started with azie as our lovely 'tourist guide'. we went to portobello market and had lunch in malaysian student department's cafe (MSD london).i've been to london a few times before but never had a chance to visit MSD london.. thanx to Azie, we had the opportunity to eat malaysian food(dimasak oleh orang utara)...it was really superb!...(kami menjerit keriangan melihatkan lauk-pauk yang bermacam rupe, nasi kerabu pun ada!)

hmm..ape lagi ek?..

owh yes, we also went to trafalgar square and harrods. surprisingly, i didn't buy anything this time around..aha!



we wanted to watch 'wicked' initially but the tickets sold out (the play has been showing for yeaaarss,and tickets were still sold out?!can u imagine?)..anyway, not giving up, we headed to leicester square in the quest for cheap-but- interesting-other-than-wicked tickets. we ended up watching 'blood brother' with maryam and azie not joining us. regardless the change in plan, i'd have to say that we did'nt regret it at all as the play was really really good!..the actors were brilliant especially the female lead.

the show ended at half past ten,then we took tube to azie's place..the funny thing was, when we arrived and called azie to open the door, she said they're already in aunty fatimah's (a.k.a irina's mother) rented apartment. apparently, azie, maryam, irina, and fairuz already took our belogings and put them in aunty's place.so, we went to the apartment which is located in king's cross st(i think)..the apartment was really amazing with the view of hyde park..it's really2 nice!..aunty, thank you for letting us to stay in ur lovely accommodation!

we came back to nottingham the next day(sunday).

london is a very lovely..ops LIVELY city indeed. however, i'm glad that i chose to study in nottingham over london's QM. dont think that i could afford to live in this expensive city. plus, it's way too crowded. and i am grateful for what i already have.
