Manchester

And so it came to pass, I've gotten myself settled down in Manchester. =P The scenery is pretty awesome. Those fable tales of the street being clean is so wrong (Well its not too bad, just that you can see a bit of rubbish around, still better than Malaysia). Haha, probably that was a lie to make ourself much more clean.



This is a cathedral down Oxford Road, it is situated near the Whitworth Park where we did our registration. Mind you, it took quite a while as there was a really really long queue.


And this is Whitworth Hall. No, Dee, Hariz and Umyra is not staying here... in fact they are further down the road.

The Student Union Building where societies do their gathering and event tickets are for sale.

And today as of 25th September, there was a few booth at the Grosvenor Park (I have no idea what the real name is but I shall call it a Park, well it does look like one, minus the bench)

Here is THE rodeo ride. The record was set at 64 or 67. I think someone got himself 67 seconds after I left but I am not really sure. Zack lasted 43 seconds while I lasted a mere 21 seconds. Yeah , I am ashamed of myself but nevertheless I did gave it a try. After much persuasion from Zack and Terry.

Oh ya, you guys don't know who the are yet. Well they are my hall mates. We live at Bowden Court Flat 17. I live in the first room and it is situated on the ground floor so just give my window a knock. Its the left one from the door.



Gladiator Fight? Terry is on the blue platform while Zack is on the red one. Terry was being squashed by Zack as he kept felling off. I told him that it wasn't really his fault, the platform was wobbly. After several people tried to bring Zack down (In which they failed horribly), one guy did.

Round Two was Terry on the Red Platform and Zack on the Blue platform. Zack still give Terry quite a fight (His skills and stability in unquestionable) but Terry manage to bring him down a couple of times.

Overall its my 5th day here in Manchester. Great place so far albeit that the mall close at 6pm and some at 8pm.
