My trip to Disneyland, Paris.

Posted by Wei Li






















Hey buddies, I went to Disneyland, Paris for holiday on 17/12 till 22/12. On 17/12 (MON), i had my exams from 9am till 11am. After that, I straight away get my things and headed to Glasgow Prestwick airport by train. It took about 45minutes from the central station to the airport. My flight was at 3.55pm and we reached Paris 6.20pm (5.20pm UK time). There were 4 of us in this trip: Jocelyn, Yan Nee, Chia Chia and me. The 3 of them were not my usual gang of friends.




Anyway, on 18/12 morning, we went to Disneyland. It's about 15minutes train ride from the hotel we were staying. I was really excited when i reached there. It's really a wonderful paradise... Your worries will just disappear once you stepped into this fantasyland. It's really fun and amazing to see all disney characters walking around. It makes you feel like you are a child again...hehe. We spent 2 days in disneyland and 1 day in walts disney studio. On the 3rd day (which was the last day to disneyland), I felt heavy-hearted to leave that place. Will definately go to Disneyland again.




On the 4th day of my trip, we travelled around Paris city centre. We spent the whole morning till late afternoon in Musue Du Lurve (the musuem where Mona Lisa's potrait was found). This museum is really very very big. One day is not enough if you are those kind who knows how to admire the paintings and sculptures and know the history of Greek, Egypt or France. After this museum,we went to take pics of the Eiffel Tower night view, and other interesting places.




On the 5th day (which is our last day in Paris), we just spent the whole day shopping (window shopping actually)...hehe. Paris is really a rich people city. We left Paris at night. Due to flight delayed in Paris, we reached Glasgow 12.30am and i reached my hall at 2am.








that's all about my Paris trip.




merry christmas from melbourne

merry christmas babes : ) hope the festive seasons have been treating you well. so what did i do on christmas eve? hehe. my friends and i went for japanese buffet at a restaurant in doncaster called yamagata. the food was just okie. i was rather dissapointed that i didnt get to eat a full unagi itself. the service was snail like. plus due to the time restriction of 2 hours i couldn't exactly pig out completely. so basically the dinner lasted from 6.30pm - 8.30pm. my friends and i : myself, engkiat, boon shih, sumin and melissa (my housemate in heidelberg) headed to crowns (its a casino + hotel + restaurant). the decos were beautiful and we waited for a 30 minutes show : basically huge christmas decos turned "alive" and moving. pretty. then we went to federation square in city (basically its opposite the main train station called flinders). we sat down for a drink and waited for a countdown to christmas (somehow the countdown didn't happen..and celebration in melbourne was not as fantastic as i thought it would be). we decided to head home after 1 but somehow or rather we stayed in the car to chat till about 5am and my friend decided to fetch us all to st kildas (a beach) to watch sunrise. we were sorta late for the sunrise and the wind was blowing hard. i was literally freezing in my dress! but we took many mengada pictures but i'll post those pictures next time. it's still with engkiat : ) all in all, i enjoyed myself very much but somehow i really wish i could celebrate it back in msia! first and last christmas in melbourne perhaps? hehehe. anyway, that's my lil christmas story from melbourne : ) miss you guys! * hugs *

Love & Smiles : )

Umbrella

currently listening to : umbrella - rihanna feat jay z

When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella

i initially find this song so so annoying. but after a while it sorta got stuck up in my head. so stuck up till i sang it with a friend of mine called eng kiat during a karaoke session in melbourne last week. then i realise how meaningful the lyrics were : ) "you can stand under my umbrella-ella-ella-eh-eh-eh"

gurls, im counting down the days to home! 22 days before i touch down the soil of kuala lumpur = H O M E : )
