oh i had such a super duper uber fantastic weekend!

arrived in oxford about 1-ish and my sister came to the bus station to meet me.... haha netball was only starting at 2 so we decided to bum around for a bit. she took me to shakeaway which must be the coolest shop ever. a gigantic milkshake shop! the flavours all sound really yummy. i spent ages drooling over the list and finally settled on strawberry cheesecake that was really really really amazingggg! my sister had some mint chocolate thing that was nice but couldn't rival my strawberry cheesecake :D then went to buy ben's cookies cos the covered market is supposed to be closed on sunday. mmmm i bought one peanut butter, one oatmeal raisin (must be favourite cookie flavour) and one double and nut. mmmmmmmmmmmmm yummy yummy.

then we trekked back to her house. it's the big medic house cos there are 12 of them living together. quickly changed and reached the netball place 40mins late. oops. but the oxford team was non-existent and the cam team was just warming up so that was alright :) haha guess what! i ended up playing centre! ME! possibly the most unfit person alive. surprisingly enough it wasn't as tiring as i imagined. but i did get a good cardiac workout! of course we thrashed oxford. i think it was 18-0. but they insisted they got one goal in. so ok lor. thennnn... walked over to uni parks to watch guys football and possibly participate in frisbee. the weather was sooo nice i was walking around in my t shirt and shorts! i didn't play frisbee in the end cos i realised i wasn't much good. and the oxford people seemed a bit violent. i would like to keep my teeth thank you very much.

dinner with my sister and her friend which turned out really well :D :D heh heh heh. i ordered chicken kurma which was completely crap but at least the company was good! oh and this curry place is quite cool. at the end of the meal the (only) waiter will push out a cart and offer a small glass of port "on the house". picked up a tub of green&black's [i think that's what the brand was...] dark chocolate ice cream. went to her friend's house and each ate a third of the tub (felt quite ill after that x_x) while watching top of the pops and strictly come dancing. HAHA british tv. went back to her house and was greeted with FRESH apple crumble with ice cream. phwoarrrrr divine! but i was still feeling ill from too much rich ice cream. her housemates are damn funny! ayee i was really quite jealous that my sister has such cool friends. why am i not cool as her!?

next day abandoned kevin because i realised i hardly spent any time with JUST my sister. dim sum lunch that was pretty good. the century egg congee was so yummy :) the truth is that i don't miss chinese food all that much. but when i do get to eat it i'm very happy :D anyway we just talked and talked and talked. i love how we manage to pick up right where we left off easily. and how we can talk about anything. did a bit of shopping at primark (this fashion of uk) hahhaa picked up another milkshake (toblerone flavour!!) and decided to give krispy kremes a miss since i was feeling quite ill.

bus ride back was 3 miserble hours long. i started to feel really homesick on the bus. first time since the start of the freshers week, i take it as an achievement! yeah but ohhhhh i miss my sister already :( and so much work to do this week! i think i will have to miss the freak-show talk. darn it.

yay i'm going to sleep now. i <3 sleep.
