Autumn (part 2)

It's definitely autumn now. Leaves turning orange, some not to be seen anymore. Chilly breeze makes me feel cold. It's one of my favorite moment here so far. Well, it's actually my expected-to-be-favorited, if u know wat i mean. Typical trees look just so pretty. Lots of them together make it just breathtaking. And by the way, it's 7 hours different from Thailand now, not 6 anymore, due to the end of daylight saving period so it gets dark around 5pm everyday now. Sunlight doesnt hit the ground at all on cloudy day. On a sunny day, if by any luck, around 9 til you see the first beam.
Really wondering now what's it's gonna b like in the winter ...
This vid is taken from the Wollaton park. Korean song just to add a korean feel ahaha

Life's fun

After a month here, all the hectic chaos of buying stuffs into dorms, settling down matters, adjusting to the places and the british accent are gone, I found out there're way too much time left to spend. It came to my mind that there're still soo many things I wanna do here. concerts, theater, football game, tennis match, I just have to go and watch these things before I'm too piled up with work or exam. The past week was a good start going out to new places, trying out new things. After all, I didnt come here just to study anyway.



By the way, the restaurant here has discount at Monday-Friday 12:00-16:00 only; 30% off!

Autumn

Leaves turning red. Weather's getting colder. This seasonal change, people in this country have to endure all the time year just to keep themselves alive. Some sort of natural selection .. if u will. A moment of thinking and simple logic making relates such simple change with how they strive and succeed. A child living here for 10 years would probably have seen, heard, and experienced lot more things than a child living in Thailand for the same amount of time.
After all, it's the change that accounts for all that matter. Even in (Newtonian) physics, Force=mass x change in speed, lol

Goose Fair 09

Its a carnival (?) that began 700 years ago. For those who are wondering, it's called goose fair because in the old days, thousands of geese were sold in the fair. It's an annual fair which lasts for 4 days, kinda like Coke carnival or smthn.
700 years later, here's what it has become.




**For those ppl who wonder y i almost threw up.... the rides look faster than it seems.

First few weeks in Notts

Two weeks have passed. This is the third country I have ever stayed for more than two weeks, first being Thailand and second being Australia (when I was in grade 6). Everything starts to settle; get kinda used to the weather here now.
The fresher fair in the vid is a fair organized by the student union. There're probably hundred of club and society you can join right away (later you can still join through the net). I joined five of them. Back in TU, this would never happen lol.
Class already started. Most of them are the same old I did last year. Well, the 3 months summer break proved to be a memory wash. I'm still adjusting my brain so it can pick something up again ahahha.


Some changes are meant to be. Some are never meant to change...
btw, thanks google map for the map in the vid.
