Post BSB

I know its almost 3 weeks ago since the Backstreet boys concert and I haven’t really said anything about it. I still can’t believe I went to their concert and to me I am satisfied. They are not the best singers in the world but as a group I feel that they are hot! :P

                                    

                                           The stage                                                                              3 of us

The excited me!

The Opening Act – Madcon

Their Entrance……wah..everyone screamed their lungs out!

I grabbed this off someone who posted in on Youtube because the I didn’t take any video of the opening.

The rest are shots of the concert (in no particular order). The boys also had solo clips featuring them in hit movies like fast and furious(Howie), Enchanter(Brian), Matrix(Nick), Fight Club(AJ)

                                          

                                      

                           

                           

                            

This too was grabbed on Youtube, I’m sure this person sat really close. We sat not too far from the stage(as you can see from the picture below) as well but obviously not as close as this person taking the video.

They go home….sniff sniff!!!!

Memorabilia's to treasure……:P

My childhood dream…

When I was 11-12 years old, I used to go GAGA over Backstreet Boys. You could as my mom about how crazy I was over them. I know some of you will think I’m lame for even listening to them, but I don’t care. They are good and even after 16 years, they are still surviving (although one of the member has already left).

Tomorrow and finally at 23 years of age, I’ll be going to see them live for the very first time! I am so excited!!!! Although I have matured and boy bands no longer give me the giggles, I still think they are one of the good ones. I’ve realise that most boybands have band members who are just there to look good (they don’t take the any lead in singing). Backstreet boys is one of them who you can see that each of them can actually sing and that they have their own distinct voice. AJ with his deep husky voice, Brian is the lead, Nick with his very distinct that-is-definitely-nicks voice, Howie just melts your heart when he sings (plus that eyes!), Kevin (although he has left for broadway) with his very deep sexy voice!….

I can’t wait to see them!!! I’m grateful to Thong and Evon to accompany with me, however I wish Lenzja, Era, Cynthia, Janu, Carmen…..were with me!!! These are the very people who’d go gaga over this too!

Whitley Bay

Hello, Its Me

Today, a bunch of us went to the beach for some photo taking since a friend of mine just got an SLR camera and wanted to practice.

It was a fun day and the weather was great, comparing it to the days before when it was really sucky...

The whole place was so peaceful yet lively. Watching families together playing on the beach made me miss home and my family. Seeing couples strolling the beach together made me wish i had someone to cuddle. Tourist going around with their back-packs makes you wanna go somewhere. Most importantly, being with friends at that moment just makes you feel friends are important too, and should never take for granted of the bond shared. Definitely stirred loads of emotions!

We walked so much that now even sitting on the sofa blogging, i feel that i'm still walking! Its been a while since i last walked sooo much! its crazy!! but i guess all that walking burnt off all the Fish and Chips I had for lunch.

The famous lighthouse at Whitley Bay

Anyway, will post more pictures once i get them from my friends...

Hugs people and have a good Sunday!

Update!!!

I know its been a while since I've really updated on things!!!!!!! So here goes

You now know that I went to Harry Potter Castle (see previous post for pictures). It was fun to go somewhere new! The night before going to the castle, Chee Cheong and I went down to Newcastle to hang out with Lenz, Stella and Elvin (since we already had to be there in the morning to catch the bus). Went there at around 10pm since it was a last minute decision. When we reached there, we gathered a few others to go hang out at night! Clubbing time!!! I haven't club since i got here, and since the clubbing queen, Lenz is here....i got kaki already! wakakakka...We went to this club called HUCCI (dont really like the name), and it was a very nice club, not too many people (maybe not too popular), and the best thing about it was that no smoking allowed....so means to smelling clothings, hair and undergarments!!! WOOT! It was fun, dragging Elvin, Chee Cheong to the dance floor was a sight to see!!!! Stella got her groove on and now she wants to club more!!!! Lenz is not controlling her!! ahahahah.....CLubbed till we were too hungry to dance anymore, so we left to find FOOD.....we found this shop which was still opened at 2.30am and we ordered chips!!!! YUMMY CHIPS!!!!!!! CHips with Cheeze and gravy..it is to die for!!

Got back, showered and plopped on the bed to dreamland....woke up like a few hours later by Xin Me's call, she had arrived with Dai Lou for the castle trip. Got ready like in 1o minutes and headed to the bus station!!!

The ride took us like 1 hour and 45 minutes, and we were got there it started to drizzle. Good thing was that the drizzle stopped. The castle is huge with different parts (which castle only has one part). The castle is open to the public during the summer and closes in the winter for the owners to stay. There are a few museums in the castle and it interesting to see the history of the castle, eventhough i can't remember it all.....history and me...is like oil and milk.

The scenery of the castle is SO BEAUTIFUL!!!! sheeps on fields everywhere!!! so peaceful and nice! The castle also had a garden which was also very beautiful and modern! They had a maze and a garden with different water features (please see the pics)!! they also have poison garden with different types of plants that has toxic that can kill or toxic that has been used in medicinal preparations. The garden partitioned to many parts with different themes, so it takes a while to complete the whole garden.

Overall, it was a very refreshing and fun trip!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Other than that, things are getting very busy. Assignments are catching up. Lab reports are coming in faster than you can say you're done! Trying very hard to move my LAZYBUM to work!!!!!

The weather here has changed since I last came. It starts to get dark at around 4pm and it is SOOO windy! Around 5pm, you think its already 8pm....makes you feel that the day is shorter and you have no time to do anything! and ITS SOOO WINDY......i think i need to go buy another jacket!!!!!! you feel the wind is going to blow you away! I'm heavy and already i feel like the wind is going sweep me off my feet, i wonder how those skinny girls stay grounded!!! hahahahahah

I'll continue this update soon okay? I'm getting tired and I have a lab tomorrow!!! I hate the lab now....it stinks (it stinks so much that my lab coat stinks) and I have to stand for 3 hours! or more on project day!!!!

Hogwart's School of Witch and Wizardry

For the past few days, i can't seem to upload any pictures on my blog.I really don't know why... and i have SO MANY pictures to upload for my parents to see!!!!!!

The links below are my albums on Facebook of my trip to Alnwick Castle. This castle is made famous by a few movies, but the most important of all is Harry Potter!! Remember the scene in Harry Potter: the Philosopher's Stone, where Harry and his friends learn how to use the broom to fly?? That scene was taken in the bailey's of the castle!!!

So click and enjoy the pictures!!!!!!

Trip to Newcastle

Finished my lab on Friday at around 5.30pm and dashed home to pack my things to go over to Newcastle. I was scared of running late, so I packed my things in a flash... And the next moment, I was out of my room again.

Walked over to the metro station, hoping that the train was coming soon. BUT as I was walking towards the train station, I heard the train coming...DAMN i won't be able to catch this one, even though I ran like a cheetah. So I slowed down my pace, bought the ticket and waited. I knew it was going to be at least a 20 minutes wait.

Arrived Newcastle about 7pm, which was early because I was thinking that I might be late. Actually being there at 7 was just nice, walked to the Baha'i Centre without rushing...

It was a nice short gathering with prayers and a story about the Bab, being that we were there to celebrate the Birth of the Bab. It was a very nice get together, meeting new people and seeing those I met during the youth gathering 2 weeks back.

After some chit chat and refreshments, I walked to Northumbria Uni, to meet up with Lenzja and Stella. It was nice to find out that one of the guy, Daniel lives in the same block as Stella. What a coincidence.

Got Elvin to accompany Lenz and I to hang out. Seeing Newcastle at night, how happening it was made me wanna kick Elvin in the butt for bringing us to some Chicken place to eat, rather than bringing us to some club to party! We were walking past one club and the music was really good. Lenz and I both looked like mad desperate clubbers walking past a club.....We were both craving for the music to seep into our brains.....but it didnt happen that night....

The next day, had lunch with Stella. She cooked porridge, which I haven't had the chance of eating since I came here. So it was really refreshing to have some. Headed out to town again with Lenz and Elvin, for some sightseeing. Went to the Millenium Bridge and this time, they had some exhibition going on, Dott 07 festival at the Baltic Square, which is just next to the bridge. The Exhibition was about how designs can help sustainability. So its was very interesting. Things there were interactive...so we drew and brought home freebies, which is always a good thing...

After spending time around the area, headed back to Lenz room and then to the metro station back to Sunderland. Reached home to a very wonderful dinner, Roasted chicken with chips and Salad.... YYUUUMMM

It was a good weekend overall, until now when i have to start working on lab reports!!
