Liverpool Trip

Too tired with yesterday Whitby Trip. This is the 1st time I felt tired with the trip that I joined. Fuuuuh!! Never been so tired even London trip which takes 3 days. Maybe this feel days not enough sleep. However, need to wake up early coz going to Liverpool today!
For this trip, there are 2 persons I would like to thanks to. First, is my KTAR hostel friend, Mei Tzeu for letting me stay with you during my stay in Liverpool. Her hostel in Liverpool was known as Marybone. Thanks to your housemates too for the wonderful and delicious dinner. Sorry for troublesome you especially during sleeping time :P.. Second, is to Adam coz accompany me for this whole trip..Thanks so much to both of you

First and foremost, what Liverpool famous for?

Liverpool Football Club..Nehhh...I'm not interested with it but I also went there to search for sourvenir coz Liverpool famous for that. As usual, keychain is my best selection as sourvenir.


Besides Liverpool FC Official Club Store, we also visited Albert Dock which being requested by my friends to this place if going to Liverpool city. This place is one of Liverpool's most important tourist attractions and a vital component of the city's UNESCO world heritage Maritime Mercantile City. As well as being the number one tourist attraction in Liverpool, it is also the most visited multi-use attraction in the United Kingdom outside of London with in excess of four million visitors per year. Amongst the many attractions at the Albert Dock are the Merseyside Maritime Museum and the Tate Liverpool.


The Beatles Story Exhibition is also located at Albert Dock. Should I said more about this group? You should know better than me :P..


Last but not least, this is the main reason I went Liverpool for.."Superlambananas".. They will only been display till end of this month, if not wrong..However, so sad that I unable to take more with them coz insufficient of time..Haiz.. Anyway, they are so creative and each of them are different from others.

Whitby Trip

The sea, the harbour, ship, dracula not forgeting fish & chips..
Yes, everything mentioned by the senior, friends and lecturer are here...

As usual, all of us wait in front of hub and the journey took about 2 hour and 15 minutes from Sheffield City.

Nothing much to see as most of us were searching which restaurant are famous for their fish & chips. Finally, under Zen advise, we choose "MagPie Cafe". Option: Dine in or take away. And we choose take away as dine it takes lots of time and it's huge (as described by my housemate who dine in). We sit nearby seaside while enjoy our view.
Next, we climbed the 199 stairs.. It's must be very very very high...No, we were wrong.




By the way, I getting lazy to described bout our journey at Whitby coz most of it was what we always done when we visit other places like take pic of building, landscape, etc.. So, let's picture desribe more about our visit to Whitby..Just one thing that we unable to search for is Dracula.. =.="

Talking bout sourvenir, I can't find the perfect keychain to describe Whitby.. So I just bought some special sweets and postcards. :(
Tomorrow activity:
Liverpool, here I come

AAC Nite in UK

Morning:
It's kinda of little bit dizzy when I woke up this morning because I drank beer with my coursemate last night. Anyhow, I forced myself to wake up as I need to finalise for our final and last FDM presentation. I'm glad that this time it's not my turn to present. It's not like that I don't like do presentation but I personally feel that my presentation skills seems like getting worst. Don't want to talk more about this.

Afternoon:
It almost 1.30pm and we still not yet ready with our slide...NO!!!!!! Our presentation is at 2 pm. Luckily finish at 1.33 pm..Fuh!! Wah!! Can't imagine that Yong Siang, which was his 1st time presentation at SHU, not bad at all..Memorize for last minute and present without taking any short notes on his hand.

For Stanley, what should I talk more bout him again! STEADY AND RELAX WHILE PRESENTATION! But being asked 2 questions... The same question beings asked to another group too.. "What will you do tomorrow?"..I wonder, what it's means? So sad this time around no group photo again coz Stanley rushing go back hostel to take his luggage coz he's going to London.

After that, we all go our own separate way to look around. As usual, Fargate, Castle Market, The Moor, etc.. Can't help myself from shopping. Everytime said want window shopping, sure end up something on my hand..Haiz..Bought 2 new bags! OK, this time is my 1st time I bought bag at UK.. From castle market and Primark :P..Here is the pic of the bag I bought.

Evening:
This is the night that I'd been waiting. Tonight AAC members will be having dinner together.. This is the 1st time we did a gathering after been in UK for so long.
