to the market, well, Farmers Market

I was surprised there was mail today! And my hp casing has arrived! So proud of myself that I put on the screen protector without bubbles..hehe!


So did washing today..learnt how to use the washing machine and realised that she hangs her laundry everywhere, only use dryer to fluff the towels up. Waited for my turn to do washing then hung clothes on window lock handle and curtain bar...haha..cos she said sun comes in.
Doesn't it look strange? But I thought might as well cos the sun is shining in. Notice where my socks are? That's the heater in the room.

Headed to Moseley..silly me again..waited at wrong bus stop and I was left wondering why the bus so slow! Hahaha! Anyhow, I managed to find the Farmers' Market





 Then popped over opposite where there's a arts market.

Well, I didn't buy anything. Seems smaller scale than I expected. Earlier on L was telling me that I can try ostrich meat burger at the market. Saw the stall..selling at £3.50 but I had a pie before I left so not that hungry.



Then headed to Kings Heath which I found online that there's an ASDA supermarket and poundland there. Bought aluminium foil and 2 lock-and-lock kind of boxes for storing food. The chicken legs there seemed more expensive than what I got at Perry Barr.


After that waited vvv long for bus again back to Harborne. Almost thought I got on at the wrong stop again or took wrong direction but I made it back. Passed by Bournville (where Cadbury world is) and Selly Oak (which most student accomm are at) and saw the Uni's clock tower.

Decided to head to Tesco a few stops from my place, wanting to get some chicken and pies. Managed to get some celery, carrots, potatoes and mushrooms (Found that they seem cheaper than the middle eastern store I bought at) and pies. Also got a loaf of bread and a block of cheese, planning to prepare sandwiches for lunch in Uni next week. The chicken section looked like a warzone though..didn't have much left. Prob will buy some tomorrow or something. 

Went to the local minimart at the corner of the road to withdraw $ for rent..then realised I might have set my cash withdrawal limit too low tt day when I opened my account..silly me again..but I can still get around it by withdrawing a few times before rent is due. So tomorrow got to withdraw $ again.

Realised I haven't taken a pic of the exterior of the place I'm staying at! up, the window is my room window. Notice no more clothes hanging there??? Haha..came back to my room and realised she hung it at the attic and toilet windows. Oh, I probably didn't mention. The toilet has a fixed day window that you can look out but doubt can open. Now I know what she meant..haha..thanked her for helping me reposition..hehe..hope she didn't do tt cos it was too unsightly as she looked up when she left the house =X


Shall have leftovers today and probably some mushroom with cheese. Tomorrow shall attend the Methodist Church down the road (just at the main road).


*added: and yes, presenting my dinner!
the part that's peeled away was sampled by L yesterday..
