hello folks!heres another update=)
DAY 2.went to HOWTH,this nice seaside place with the greatest cliffs you'll ever find.super nice,super romantic.cept that i got the wrong person with me at the wrong place at the wrong time.HA.kidding=)its a nice place,seems like where westlife filmed their "my love" MTV and james blunt "you're beautiful" mtv.the scenery here is spectecular.man.its like.those default wallpapers you have with windows XP.you ll see below.prettypretty place man.im beginning to fall in love with this place,really.the beauty is really.beyond description.breathtaking would be an understatement,although it seems like the most suitable word to be used now.
supposed to have a picnic on top on top of the cliffs overlooking the Irish Sea,but we trekked and followed the path along the edges of the cliffs and we re too engrossed in looking for nicer views of cliffs and all that we forgot bout it.in the end went down and sat by the pier overlooking the sea eating nachos and drinking coke.i tell you ah.if you stay here during winter can save elecricity.i swear when i left where i was staying i was carrying a bottle of DIET coke(mr tan insisted) and a botle of water at room temperature.when i took it out aft an hour or 2 of trekking,it was like i just took it out from the fridge.DAMN cold.seriously.haha.auto refridgeration.its the same idea as frying an egg in the desert without gas i think.aha.
today's temperature was rather cold.zero degrees celcius for most parts of the day.and mr tan said today was the first day i a WEEK when it wasnt cloudy and didnt rain.the sun was out too!surprise,surprise.lucky me i guess!hm.
talked bout lotsa stuffs along the trek,learnt a considerable amount of things and got to know mr tan more in depth i guess.hm.anyways.after we got back into town,went to chinatown for lunch.you ll be surprised,the food is better,if not equivalent to what we have back home.Had the sweet and sour pork and sour and spicy soup.huge serviings for the price i guess.after that,went to watch a movie.mr tan was so insistent on watching beowulf but it wasnt my type of show,so we ended up watching american gangster.not a bad show too,but i was so tired i slept for 0.5 of an hour or so.movie tickets are 7.5 euros here,which equals 15SGD.s dont complain tht ticket prices are 8.0SGD there.feel lucky.haha..
had subway takeaway for dinner,then went back to the room and ate while watching alexander on mr tan's laptop.now here i am,freezing my ass off and typing this entry.
tomorrow we re joining a day tour to this place called newgrange,supposedly older than stonehadge.im lookingforward to more beautiful scenery outside of the city.stay tuned for more updates!
andand.the people here are so polite and friendly.not like singaporeans.ugh.i actually feel ashamed of us.and have i mentioned that the girls here are ______?=p
now i shall let the pictures do the talking.feast ur eyes!
