Its me blogging at a quarter to 2am! oomg, I'm anticipating a lot for September! Jenny will be here in 5daysss! Was trying to find a Sunflower farm because its in season now! But kinda upset that the nearest one was still far from central London. Boohoo!

BUT..

I FOUND A PYO FARM IN LONDON! (pick your own) *beams*

Have been wanting to pick my own fruits and all, I just had never experienced that! Looks like the plan is going well! Hopefully we still get to pick some strawberries! September probably will be blackberries, blackcurrant, raspberries season.

Heading to Barcelona on thursday! trying to do some research! the tapas makes me drool already. Europe, why are you so amazing? Makes me dont ever want to go back to Singapore seriously. Unless, Singapore starts to snow, starts to have like 1000000acres of PYO farms!

IM SO EXCITED, I CANT SLEEP

Mayfield Lavender Farm, Croydon

Its on a gloomy friday, I woke up at 8am, headed to school for some advice from the lecturer for my upcoming deferred examination. Surprised I was the only one who turned up! Headed back home, thinking if we should still head to the lavender farm as the weather wasn't really nice. 

Decided to follow our initial plan! Headed to the farm w Katherine and my aunt! Was a long journey! Took a train to London Bridge then to Woodmansterne.. A bus to the farm. 
























Thanks Aunt Lily and Katherine for capturing those lovely pictures! Was an amazing experience at the farm! Even though I didn really like the Lavender tea! Hhaha, find it too minty and strong for my preference! The lavender shortbread was good!! 

People in London/UK should hop down to this farm if you have time before second week of September!!

Phuket July'13

Hello! Finally on my blog posting about my awesome Phuket trip with my best friend Kris Ong! HAHAHA, totally enjoyed the sun, my super tan tan! and thanks so much for Jenny's friend for the donut float! Thankful for the weather actually! It was monsoon period in Thailand! Was raining on the day we arrived! 



It was rainy on the first day, so we decided to chill at the tiny pool at our hotel, and we headed to Banglar for some drinks.






Second day was island hopping at 3islands! Khai, Phiphi and something else. I can't remember! Kinda got cheated cause we got the tickets on our way to the resort! We thought we actually got a good deal.. but you can actually get better deals at Patong! just ask around and BARGAIN. 




This was at Khai Island! there are fishes near the shore by the beach! I prefer Phiphi though,. think that the water here is not as clear? U can see the fishes when your face is not IN the water. whats the point of snorkelling when you can't see any fishes using the gears right? So we just decided to take some jump shots! Met really nice australian guys too! Sad that we can't hang out because we didn have a thai number~


Finally Phiphi Island! 








Last day at Phuket! Met two awesome Japanese! So nice of them to let me try on their surfboard! I can't wait to surf by myself soon! I really want to learnn it well!







BYE PHUKET! YOU HAVE BEEN GREAT! TILL NEXT TIME :)

Taipei Trip July'13

Was looking through my facebook albums and just decided to do a short post on my trip to Taipei this summer! I took way too many pictures so I cant be bothered to just spam all at once here. Too much foooddd, that makes me hungry now! Went for 5days, experience a really bad typhoon there too. OMG, my retarded friend Rachel Tan even made a freaking epic 'broadcast' on the situation on that night. Was ultimately hilarious. 

Pictures are not in order!



You can see what we wrote on the wishing lantern. "I EAT YOU FAT". no offence people, its just for fun hahahahaha!



Visited the Toilet bowl restaurant. Nothing fantastic at all. Food wasn't great, just for pictures I guess!


I concluded the best night market for food is RAOHE! We literally ate from the front to the back. Lucky we were in groups!


Totally miss this so much that I have to upload it here :( It wasnt from Raohe. Is it Ningxia? Its just so good, MUAHCHEE on ice. the ice taste milky as well, was too good.


Went to LiuFu theme park. Dont bother going! I dont think its worth the journey and money. I did enjoy 1ride only!




Partied at LAVA. I love it! Rachel just had to get drunk that night, sigh. 

Rainy days after typhoon! 

Dazzling cafe! We even had to make reservation! Its really good! 


I remembered we plead the driver to let us get off the bus just to take a picture here! The typhoon was approaching that the driver just dont let us step off the bus to take a picture. Most of the pictures we took it on the bus :( This was somewhere at jiufen if i didn get it wrong.



Made it to Jay Chou jap restaurant on our last day. Kris said its a MUSTTT to go so we really had to lug our luggages along. The weather wasn't kind enough. I think it was 38degrees that day.




Funny pictures took at a tiny museum that has weird stuff. like tortoise with 2heads and all. 

Hahahaha, i know, what a crappy post right! But who reads my blog anyway! I gonna check this back 10years later. Maybe gonna log onto Rachuh instragram just to see the Typhoon broadcast again. cantstoplaughing
