1 day trip to Brighton!
4:38 AM

went Brighton with Jean-Hilaire, one of the french student interns, on saturday. took a bus all the way there.. 1hr 50mins journey!! the bus was relatively empty so I managed to get the front seat on the top deck. great country-side scenery the entire way =)

Brighton's a sea-side town on the south coast of UK. It's reli pretty!! miss the sea and the sea-breeze. but it's a pebble beach though. not the sandy kind.. loads of cafes, restaurants & shops lining the streets selling all sorts of stuff..from 2nd hand clothes, vintage, antiques, old records.. to hand-made craft, high-end fashion & of coz.. handmade chocolates & fudge!! loads of them! =D just the sight of them made me instantly happy. haha.

St Peter's Church

Brighton Pier

View of Brighton from the Pier

the re-knowned Bagelman!! super long queue.. this is the lox deluxe (salmon + heaps of cream cheese), it's AWESOME!! the best bagel I've ever eaten!! =)


Roly's Fudge pantry.. the fudge here is simply divine! it's the kind that crumbles in ur mouth (coz it's laden with artery-clogging fats - not that I care) and not those irritatingly sticky kind that glues ur teeth together.

LICK - frozen yoghurt. tastes like.. frozen yoghurt. should have spent the money on more fudge/ bagels =)

the Royal Pavillion..extremely grand & majestic

busy street in North Laine

yup.. love the place! if only it's not 110mins bus ride away, I'll go there more often.. to shop & eat, shop & eat! hohoho.

side track a lil.. Jean-Hilaire tricked me into eating goat's cheese yesterday! alright, it's unfair to say he tricked me. but he kept saying that it's really good and blah blah blah.. (maybe he did mention that it's goat's cheese but his accent is soo strong that I probably didn't catch it) anyway, I bought a huge slab - the kind tt's unwrapped and u have to eat asap. i took a bite and *wham* i was swarmed with the GOAT smell. it was OVERWHELMINGLY smelly! kinda like eating ur meal amongst the goats. bleah. I demolished an entire foot long baguette with the cheese! anyway, now that I have tried.. I've decided that cows smell much better =)

fixed myself sth nice for dinner today! (and the next few days)... a big pot of baked pasta! (to miff & noo: mae mae will be proud)

the dish is massive enough to serve 4 actually. but i ate half of it for dinner. haha. oh well. cold weather = big appetite.

ooh.. bought a pair of shoes today as well! coz my track shoes are on the brink of rotting due to the delightful rain that visits ever so frequently. hope they last =)
