on 31 august, von, FM, KW and i started our europe trip....we boarded a plane from liverpool to Rome, italy....Ryan air....rome is a very nice place...especially da fountains, sculptures, historical buildings....one more thg....da food!!!!! gelatin (ice cream) is so so so so so so SUPER DUPER nice!!!!!! i fell in love with da ice cream....we went to Vatican City, Colosseum, Fontana di Trevi, Pantheon, Foro Romana, Piazza di Spagna...etc....hahha! nice place...but a bit dirty....hahaa!



then next destination...pompeii, Naples (3rd of sept)...somewhr in italy....i will never recommend this place to anyone....this place is dusty and hot!!! 35 degrees...and there r no shading....just went there to see the ruins...a 2000 year old city ruins.....it sound nice...but not in reality.....there was a huge volcano eruption causing lava to cover the entire city...some humans and domestic pets such as cats n dogs were preserved completely...so...we went there....it was so hot...and right after i enter da ruins, da wind blew all da dust in my face...and suddenly, my entire hair, shoulder, pants were covered in dust!!! i hate dat place....it was so hot!! we couldnt stand it after 2 hours..... and we went around asking da security 'where r da corpses? we just wan to look at the preserved corpse' . After getting da information we need, we just ran off towards da preserved corpses and took pictures....then we started to head back to rome.....it was torturing....we were hungry, hot, sweaty, tired, darken, dusty, messy, smelly...anythg....u name it...



Then, on 4th of sept, we headed to Venice...i love tis place a lot...i'll definitely go there again...but..remember to bring along mosquito repellent...hhahha! i love genovase...a type of sandwich..yum yum....we also went to Casino de Venice and became its member for three years! hooray! i'll be back!! i won 150 euros and runaway with it....hahha! okie, i am not that bad...i treat my backpackers frens for a nice-full-course dinner...yay! forgotten how much...i tink it was somewhere around 90 euros....yay! nice food!

Then, we went to Paris on 6th of sept and stayed till 10th sept...the first nite we arrived in paris, it was so so so so cold...immediately, we just check in at the nearest hotel...we came from Venice and we never thought that it'll be so cold in Paris...okie..so, that nite, four of us shared a four-beds room in Florida Hotel...which costs each of us more than 30 euros per nite...hahha! the next day, we went to the train station (Gare du Nord) and try to search for a hostel or budget motel nearby...Guess what?! we bumped into our frens!! they are leaving Paris and we'd just arrived...we even took a photo and managed to chat for a while...Yin ying missed me a lot...she should have followed our trip....hahhah! We met Hailie, Yin ying, Mui yun, Yeeling, Chen ying, Nelson and....another guy...dunno wat's his name...hahahah!i guess...umm...David? oh...nevermind...he wasnt our coursemates..hhhaa! okie, we managed to find a hostel and the grandma treated me so nicely...i just love her alot! hahhaha! we went to La tour eiffel, Arc de Triomphe, La defense, Cathedrale de notredame, Musee de Louvre, musee Rodin, Printemps, and Galleria Lafayette....i saw a really really pretty LV handbag and it's pure white...oh my god! i din have enough cash with me...If i had, i would buy it! arghhh! no matter wat, i'll get it!

okie, 10th of sept, we came back to liverpool and on 11th, we went to manchester's airport to board our plane...i continue my trip to Dubai without Von and KW...just me, Hailie and FM...dubai is just too hot!!!!! 50 degrees...dat's why i am so tanned right now...hahhah! anyway...i tried riding a camel, try their local delicacies...and i do not know what is that..hhahah! but it was delicious...hhahah! okie..i went sand duning by driving a miniature jeep on my own as well as hiring an expert to drive a four-wheel drive for sand duning...it was exciting!!! okie...then we went to museum and da hotel as well as ski dubai....a complex with a ski arena...great! i even took a picture with a polar bear (not real) hhahahha! and that's wen a guy ask for my email...he was good looking, wearing coat and everythg...BUT he is just not my type... okie..almost forgotten the most important part...DO NOT CHOOSE RAMADHAN PERIOD TO GO DUBAI...they are all fasting and u'll hv to follow and obey them by not eating and drinking unless u hide somewhere...but there r no restaurants open anywhere and you just cant find food...and the weather is just too hot....it'll be better to go during the winter as it'll be around 25 to 27 degrees...which is a lot better....

i arrived Malaysia on 15th and went back Miri on 16th sept in the morning...then, i came back KL also on the 16th sept at nite...and i am half dead by that time....i applied my visa and waited for it...

after all da hassle, i obtained my visa and flew to Manchester to continue my masters and transited at Abu Dhabi airport....i tink Dubai's airport is a lot nicer....haha! i bought a train ticket from Manchester airport and arrived in Liverpool Lime street...i be-friended a guy from Msia...help him with his accomodation and finding his way around...hhaha! only after we settled everythg, i know his name...hahhaha! kinda weird..but nevermind..i am just trying to help as he was alone and it was his first time here...i am glad that i managed to help him and he is very grateful...he kept saying his luck was really bad until he met me...dat's is the best thg i'd heard so far! hahaha! anyway, i am glad that i can help him because he reminded me of myself wen i first arrived in KL...all the best to this kid, and hope he'll become a lawyer...soon...
