When you're gone, it's just so different to go on. Missing you and hoping the best for you.

Four weeks in Uni and this is my first time doing tutorials on a Sunday morning. Water pollution control. LOL. This is my belated post for my Darling about my Uni life! ((:
Glanced thru the window to check the weather to know how many jackets to wear.lol
Walked up hill to meet up my dearest sis (:
Rushed pass the weirdest monument, a safety pin?!? wt*faints*
Lots of stairs and slopes along the way, the beautiful autumn leaves are all gone ):
After what seems like eternity fighting against the wind and rain..
MORE stairs await us!
Boring stuff.haha (blackboard!!)
Nothing to do after classes and went around to camwhore with monuments and huge mechanical eng. lab door. lalala
Having hall-made lunch at the kebun bunga opposite our acad building (only tried once and was nearly frozen to batu ais,haha)
Goodbye Autumn. You'll be missed dearly.

Scotland in Scotland
Emptied our wallets, packed our bags, bidded goodbye to the overcrowded low land city, we headed up north. We spent all our pennies being hit by a bus, drenched by the icy downpour and being blown away into the Atlantic Oceans. But fortunately, joining us in the journey were Harry Porter and friends, Sir William Wallace from Braveheart and some fairies from Stardust. Ok enough of crap. With a bunch of other exchange students, we decided to ponteng one day of classes and have a skye weekend. A walk to remember!
1. err, Glasgow
2. Stirling (Sir William Wallace Monument)
3. Perth (in UK - first touch of the colorful forest)
4. Pitlochry (Pretty town - best scotts borsch, yum!)
5. Killiecrankie (sounds so cranky, it's the first Jacobite uprising anyway, Loch Garry!)
6. Inverness (Capital of Highlands, first rainbow (; Clava Cairns, some Bronze Age Grave; haha and one crazy night)
7. Loch Ness (Nessie! - Loch monster of Scotland; highland cattle! Eilean Donan Castle, the wind *speechless* *drops jaw*)
8. Kyle (Staffin - dinasour stamping ground, blown off the cliff, literally, heard fairy music, aww)
9. Portree (Beginning of Isle of Skye!)
10. Isle of Skye: Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock, Quirang, FAIRY GLEN (loves it but drenched, soaked in fairy water); home-cooked (first taste of haggis and cranachan, delicious)
11. Fort William (passing Ben Nevis, highest mountain; tradisional steak sandwich, not bad)
12. Glencoe (Harry Porter Hogwarts Station!!)
13. Luss (Loch Lomond)
14. err, Glasgow
PS: Fav spot - Fairy Glen, I saw miracles! haha, not.
Random: Rainbows followed us everywhere, which also means we were under the rain throughout the trip.yay.
Great Glen is made up of Loch Ness, Loch Lochy, Loch Linnhe and Loch Oih (yay, i remembered, lol, there are hundreds of lochs in Scotland, scary right)
We went through so many lochs and glens. We had so many autumn forest walks. Compared to our lush green tropical forest back home, the forests here are covered with Caledonian pine trees. Autumn must be one of the best season to visit the highlands - the leaves slowly turn from green to yellow and red, lighting up the glens with a salute to the sun; tups scamper about the mountains; stags roar defiantly from the hillsides; salmon make their way upstream in the waterfalls. Awesome. But, a Big but, you can experience four seasons in a day itself, sun for one minute, rain the next, come storm and ICE rain. LOL.
One good thing about going on a guided tour is that you're able to do things to the max. We wouldn't have got ourselves so drenched; wouldn't have climbed up those slippery dangerous cliffs, wouldn't have experienced the chance of being blown away by some gusty autumn wind, it was wild but definitely worth it.
The colors of life.. (oh btw, the last pic is the Glencoe bridge in HP)
Love is actually all around (:

On this special day,

Edinburgh, gorgeous and magical.
University of Glasgow, too pretty to study in.
Loch Lomond, where the autumn sparks glitter through the leaves. 
But of course, all these would have been colorless without the people (:
Lots of autumn love from Loch Lomond! Friday, October 10, 2008 - 10:03 PM

I cooked! A three course meal. Hmm, only seeing is believing, they're ugly but edible (:
Sometimes, believing is seeing too. Glasgow is not all dirty afterall. Friday, October 3, 2008 - 12:28 PM
Am I asking too much to touch the sky?
Missing the warmth, the smiles, the laughters, the hugs.

Pictures tell my room, some food we cooked (not pretty at all), a friend's visit (loves) and a small part of my classroom (not important).
