♥ Denmark, Copenhagen
woo.. i finallly changed my blog skin.. was a terrible thing to do. cuz i have to change alot of things! grrr~
yayy!! i'm back from my trip! =) was fun fer me cuz firstly, it's my first time on a cruise! wahahhaa.. not a big ship but i had fun! and it's simply amazing to see how she sail across the sea in the dark! love the feeling of it. so windy and cold and dark!! this was the ship i took.
* Pearl of Scandinavia
it was a long journey to Copenhagen.. 16hrs on the waters! i was almost sure that i was swaying on the ship. hahaha.. thank god i wasn't sea-sicked. feels awful to have tt kinda ''wanna puke feeling'' there wasn't much to do on the ship as it was a small one.. so we played dai-dee to kill time. and yea.. thanx to the game i owed zhijian 11 whacks.. tt's how good my skills are in dai-dee.. Bought some beer from the DFS shop onboard and me, amelia and zhijian went to the deck to talk.. was a nice feeling cuz it felt so cold on the outside and hot inside cuz of the alcohol. =) really relaxing nite.
here's some pics onboard the shipppp~
finally docked the habour at 9:30 in the morning on sat. weather was good but turning cloudy. boo! took us abt half an hour to reach the backpacking hostel tt my sch booked. was a really nice hostel! Very different from the norms. Looked like an apartment instead but too bad no pictures on it.. cuz my hands are full wif stuff.. haha.. couldn't take any pics. We din meet the check-in time so we left our belongings there and headed out fer our lunch! Found a nice restaurant which serves buffet for only 39 danish kroners. =) tt's like how cheap can. haha.. so all of us decided to go fer it! since we can hardly find such offers in norway.
Our lunch!
the group of us who went.
*amelia, baohua, wanjun, zhijian (left top to bottom)
*xinyi, jas ang, yeiling and me (right top to bottom)
and yea.. zhijian being our only hero in the trip. hahaha.. new found sister. =X
we went to this place called nydalen to meet up wif the rest of the students from my sch. We were supposed to catch this boat tour (yes on the waters again..) to go sight-seeing. the good thing was there's really nice places to see! but the bad thing was.. it was raining! and it was freaking cold cuz there was no shelter on the boat!! was drenched cuz none of us had umbrella. i was thankful enough that i wore the correct jacket and i brought my scarf and gloves. However.. my gloves was soaked with water that my fingers felt numb. =( so much so fer the sight-seeing trip. couldn't take any pictures either.. else there goes my cam. we passed by this opera house, a magnificent library, the mermaid statue (famous in Copenhagen), a submarine and a war ship!! argh.. i can't believe it.. none on my cam! =( why must it rain........
But nevertheless.. i still enjoyed! We went to 3 "museums".. haha.. Ripley's, Guiness World of Records and Mystic. (din really wanna join xinyi and gang to national museum) bahh.. Had some amount of fun there too. wanted to enter this place called Museum Erotica. haha.. but was too expensive. Interesting museum though.. it features new 21st century sex, elegant erotic exhibition of sex galleries, paintings, sex toys, prostitutions, old fashion lingerie, male gay section and bla bla bla.. hahaha.. rather unique museum i've come across..
some photos on the "musuems" i went. =)
* the last photo on the bottom right is a picture from Museum Erotica.. haha.. look closely.. all naked!
we headed to this club at night.. was like a small place our sch has booked.. and there was some nice "show" to watch.. those cheee-na gals in my class were like.. whoa~ never expected them to get so high and danced so wildly.. hehehe.. seee i found out another new thing from my classmates. lol.. we left after 1 hr cuz it was boring plus we were mostly tired.. and yea.. it rained again.. grrr~
got back to hostel and yeap.. forgot to mention tt me and jas ang shared a room wif 4 other gals.. gosh.. feels weird living in the same room as caucasians.. haha.. 2 was from Ukraine, 1 France and 1 Switzerland. there was only me and this Ukraine gal in the room cuz jas ang was accompaying the cheee-na gals and the rest was still at the club. i ended up talking to her and it's rather interesting to find out what they thought of Sg. and i suddenly felt proud to be a sgporean. =P hehhee.. time to do some marketing fer our small country. Got to find out that the masters students have to choose a country to complete a semester there and SG was one of them.. =)
Sunday morning was also gloomy.. boo again! but we managed to walked ard and i had a mcdonald's meal fer the very first time since 2 months ago? gosh.. although its not very cheap but at least its cheaper then norway. but the service was damn slow. waited like almost 15mins fer my burger to be done. to think that it's called fast food. hurr~
walked ard the city centre.. took some photos before heading to the ferry centre to meet the rest of the sch at 3pm. and yeap.. tt's the end of my Denmark trip. =) another 16hrs on the waters before reaching Oslo.. sea was rather choppy that night.. and fer once i felt like puking. thank god i had my medicine wif me.. popped one into my mouth without any hesitation. haa.
i had the most expensive meal prolly the first time in my life. but since its my first time on a cruise, i've decided to go fer the buffet. hahaha! and so.. me, amelia, jas and and zhijian went fer it! i ate till my max and i've never felt so uncomfortable before.. booo! my stomach was bloated that i suddenly felt that i was pregnant. haa yes! i swear my stomach grew in size after my dinner! and i had a hard time getting myself back to the cabin cuz the ship was so shaky that i found myself swaying to and fro. no pukes though, hahaha.. phew~
* the ship that brought me to my 2nd home.
Crown of Scandinavia (it's a different one!)
Some photos of the city!
and more photos of us~ =)
enjoyed myself =) and i'm so looking forward to my next trip! Old trafford here i come! and yes! We finally comfirmed our stadium tour at Old Trafford today.. I CAN'T WAIT!
