Day 1 (flight time + shopping)

It's time for updates!! Currently I'm on a 4 month internship at University of Liverpool. And on 28 February 2014, I flew to Manchester airport by SIA.

Personally I do enjoy this flight (other than not being able to sleep well), as the food were pretty nice I would say. Since the journey is long (about 16hrs) I decided to watch movies, only 2 though: The Book Thief and Ender's Game. I watched the second movie before but I really like the plot and graphics of it. Most importantly the main character, Ender (Asa butterfield) really acted well. Good job kiddo! 

Anyway I won't post a lot of pictures here. Only those I would like to specially mention will be posted.

Sooo... The first picture goes to... *drum roll*

THIS!!

"Why this picture?" You guys may think but this picture actually shows the distance we travelled in total. From Singapore to Munich.

And can you see the "daylight" and "night time" line? Yeap we crossed over from day time to night time. So when the day is ending in Singapore, it's just the beginning of the day in Liverpool. Amazing isn't it?

After arriving at Manchester airport, we took a train down to Liverpool Lime station. I didn't video down the journey (I think) because the train was moving at a pretty high speed and there were too many trees blocking the view.

We were able to drink on the train and I drank hot chocolate~ Mmmmm yummy~ 

But then I have the problem of going to the toilet after drinking sooo... You can imagine how I felt on the 1 hour train ride. With no toilet... 

Once we reached the station I went straight for the toilet but I have to pay 30 pence to go in. Geez I have no coins! So a kind lady paid for me (thanks again!) and I went in to relieve myself~ 

Then we took a cab down to Vine Court where we will be staying at for 3 mths plus.

I think it was around noon when we put down our luggages before heading out again to eat and to shop. 

And this was what we saw at the shopping district. Minion!!! How cute and big is that? Haha! 

So we were in this area for quite a while and also shopped for some groceries at the Chinese supermarket and co-op near our apartment. 

That's pretty much what happened the whole day. And we were dead tired by 7pm and fell asleep by 8+pm. 

Jet lagged.... Can't be helped~
