P105: CNY Class Party

Hello P105!!!!

Must have been ages since I last saw some of you =D
Labs must have gone well for some and not so well for some too..hehe..so as CNY approaches it's time to relax and chill for a wee while before we all go back to our hectic schedules~

Some of you might have received an email from Jin Werne indicating a halls CNY party but now plans have changed a bit and the final outcome of it would be a P105 CNY class party ^^

Date: 7th Feb
Time: 7:30pm - 10:30pm
Venue: Living rooms of H12, H11, H10, H9 (yet to confirm), H8, H7 (and their adjoining units the J houses)
Price: IT'S FREEEEEEEE thks to our ever brilliant P105 people = us, we got enough money to have this CNY party for free ^^ (your cooking stuff can be claimed, retain receipts please)
*I'm gonna send out an invitation to the lecturers as well, so if you particularly like one of them..do go all out and invite them in ;)

How is it gonna be like??
Bringing the CNY-visitation-open-house-feel to Glasgow!!! So basically you can proceed from the allocated houses to the other. It's gonna be FUN!! You need to move around in order to sample all the good food prepared by your very own batchmates!!

Now we need everyone to do something, to justify you having free food --> it's either you are cooking or cleaning up at the end or doing deco
We obviously need a big lot of you cooking =) if not there would not be much food =( than it won't be a good class party anymore

So we need 3 teams of people basically:-
- Chefs --------> person in charge: Joyce Ng (ext 7211; email: syjoyceng@yahoo.com)
- Cleaners ----> person in charge: Adam Cham (ext 7182; email: adamcham85@hotmail.com)
- Deco --------> person to contact: Yi Jie (ext 7199; email: e_jay@graffiti.net)

You would need to be interested in at least one of the teams to be allowed for this event =p
Cleaners: 12 people (by 31st of Jan)
Deco: 12 people (by 31st of Jan)

As for the CHEFS, please let Joyce (by 31st of Jan) know what you wanna cook and what are the ingredients you need because we will be buying in bulk to make it cheaper =) unless you plan to sponsor the food which of course is more than welcome ^^

So if you are interested, than your name would need to be in at least in either one of the teams la :) Do feel free to invite the home students, ask those especially who's in the same research group as you are in and if they are coming do let Joyce know. So we know how many people are coming.

Ok la..I think I didn't miss out anything ^^ I need sleep!

YOU MUST BE INVOLVED IN EITHER ONE OF THE GROUPS IN ORDER TO EAT =P
apparently some of you got the idea that you can just come and makan...don't la so lazy...it's our last P105 event after all...(mm maybe ^^)

back in Glasgow~

i've been gone for about 10days..plus minus...but it seems like i've been away for a very long time and it feels like it too but yet so short...

i had a superb fantastically great holiday with my parents ^^ visiting all in 5 different countries~ visiting a country is best when you have a friend there :)

i've got some pictures ...didn't really bother to snap lots of photos this time...as I was just too busy having a ball of a time!!

From Glasgow, we went to Hungary & Romania (this is in the only 2 places that had snow..unfortunately or fortunately my hope of seeing fresh snow did not come to pass..as where ever we went..the sun tagged along -_-)
and from Hungary we went to Vienna by car, our friend drove us there...so we sat comfortably in a BMW 7 series ^^ at a speed of 240 km/h SUPERB!
than from Vienna, Austria we flew to Hamburg, Germany and I love this place the best!! Stayed the longest too =)
After that we flew to London than back to Glasgow

now that I'm back there's just soooo much to do...
but I'll definitely write up something about my trip and post up the photos ...loads of photos coming up pretty soon!~

vienna jet lounge

right now...

a red squarish design sofa
sony vaio laptop
on my left arm rest: a cup of Baileys on the rock
with a plus dark maroon carpet under my feet
dad and mum towards my right
dad's watching TV
mum's asleep

since i don't have my mac with me and my camera is running low on batt and that i don't have my card reader with me...no pics for a good wee while =)

with an hour plus more to go for my boarding flight to Hamburg..i am comfortably seated in Vienna's Jet Lounge ^^ (Diner's card rocks) unfortunately I don't have it yet thus Dad had to pay 15euros for me to enter ;)

so far I have been to Hungary and Romania (ate a whole lot of food --> now I literally look fat and rounded! -_- it was like breakfast, lunch, dinner: meat meat meat meat meat AND bread bread bread AND lots lots lots of 101 other things) good food nonetheless!! Did some ministry time over there and it's really brilliant to see the people there :)

ahh tired d..shall just type later and now log on to facebook to do my replies ^^

although i'm in vienna now, I didn't do much for sight seeing and all as mum and dad wanted to do shopping..and I got a jacket from here (and also another jacket from Hungary as my yellow puffy one was torn)

my black jacket from Hungary was a ripped-off coz dad was bugging me to buy it =p than my bad for not thoroughly checking it -_- the 2 pockets had holes in them...i only realised that when i was in vienna XD it cost me 40 euros for that jacket

welp..i do need to come back to vienna to really see the sights and all...some of the food are really good around here..especially the breads..there have loads of different toppings for it..i tried austria's famous dessert...God-knows what's it called but it wasn't too nice..basically a kind of chocolate cake...didn't really like it coz it was kinda dry...the other type of chocolate cake was much better as it was moist but this was not what the austrians are proud of

met up with my friend, Sahiba Minhas..which after 4 years of not seeing each other! ...but I'd suppose both of us have not changed much :) in terms other than that I got fatter XD

It is really terrible that I don't speak German..coz that's what everyone here speaks! Hard to get by at times without having someone that speaks German -_-

Good thing I'm gonna be staying at my dad's buddy place...so will be well taken care off and getta go around places in a car! That is like one of the most important thing especially when you can't speak the local language and people don't speak english that much!

construction - employment training

You find that you need a career advancement or something new in your life or something to further equip you in the area of construction. What do you do?

Simple: you can always sign up for employment training.

And what is this all about??

Basically this site called Construction Skills offers you further development and training in most of the area in regards to construction. And even if you are the best in your field, if there's an area in which you can further develop than why not? Might as well be the best of the best in that area.

From apprenticeship to qualification, ConstructionSkills.org offers it all. So pop on over and have a look, you might just find the key to your next pay rise.

Since we are on the topic of construction, there was this point of time in which I wanted to become an architect but than it takes like 5 years to get just a qualification and a further few more years to really become a professional in it. -_-
I might as well become a doctor, so that want was quickly dropped off the list. Since I realized that I can always design something on paper and leave the technical part to the experts. ^^

rugby rugby

there's this game that i've never played before in my entire life up till now ------> rugby

why?

beats me, the game sounds like some clobbering type of game where you pass the ball to someone and you get to bash up that someone ^^

anyway the rugby game has some good fans along with it...why men get all hyped for a ball? I have no idea..maybe all man are designed to be hyped up by balls ;)

Departure tips

After having a wee chat with my buddy, Ivy, who's preparing to fly off to Canada on the 3rd Jan, I've decided to put up the list of things in which I run through with her, so that she doesn't forget anything =)

As I've entitled this post, here are some of the things I think would be useful for anyone who's gonna fly off to somewhere for more than 4 hours ^^
I picked it up while from my flight from Malaysia to Scotland...it's a LONG flight ;)

I actually thought of putting down the whole conversation here, but than I realized that some parts of it is not in English, and that would be not fair for my readers who don't understand the language.

Can I put electronic goods in the check-in luggage?
Yup. Just make sure you wrap it up proper with cloths and bear in mind that the people handling your luggage are just gonna throw your luggage everywhere.

Travel adapter?
Bearing in mind, that countries either follow the UK's or US' electrical system. So having one in hand is always handy.

Laptop?
Do make sure when you pack your laptop, you can easily remove it from the bag. As during the check-ins, you are not required to completely remove the laptop from the bag/case. (Due to this procedure, I lost my USB hub -_- as I did not expect to remove the laptop from my bag 3 times. They require that for each transit.)

Food, water?
Do pack some sweets, sandwich (if you're gonna be traveling for long, do not assume that you can buy it from where ever you are going. Sometimes you might not get what you want, plus if you are on a budget, airport food is always expensive.)
If you're gonna travel for long hours, during your last transit, pack some food from the plane into your bag ^^
As you now know, you can't bring liquids into the plane, so just grab a bottle of water from the plane on your last transit to your destination. *grab it early before it runs out

nothing much on other sites, you can just drop me a comment if you've got a question ^^
