Stayed in my room including having my muesli till about 11+am then left to town. Checked out phones and telcos to make sure I don't waste time and not lost when I'm out. Settled for T-mobile or vodafone. The bus ride itself took about 15mins from home..it takes about 5 min walk to the bus stop from home. Walked around the town..following the crowd..haha

Managed to pick up some maps and brochures from the Visitor Centre. Then settled my hp. Prob will change plan after 1 month cos other operator's seems cheaper. Got Samsung Galaxy Fame (doubt it's available in SG) for a total of £120 (S$240). Throughout the whole process, learnt that mobiles sold in telcos are locked to the operator...so got to find one that's unlocked so I can use it even when I'm back in SG. Got a toasted panini (£1.49) along the way too and went grocery shopping at Poundland (yes, everything in there is £1) and Tesco.
Had soup and bread for dinner cos I ate late lunch. Managed to chat with L a while..finally got her to show me how to open room window..haha! She's still impressed by my great sense of direction and not needing to look after. I'm indeed very blessed! I'm just not very used to having a dog running into my room, jumping on my bed even and licking my things..eeeeee...so leaving my room door closed most of the time.
Was checking out what events there is over Orientation week..nothing much interests me..what an anti-social person I am..hahaha! So prob will check out around first before gg into uni thur or fri.
Tomorrow got to settle banking stuff and see if I can find hangers, laptop table, cheap tumbler for brushing teeth and maybe some fresh food. Storage space in kitchen not a lot though..so can't buy too much to stock up!
Alright, I should call it a day soon. Have a wonderful week ahead, all!
