ps. did you know cacti could randomly sprout such cute flowers?!

skating with the boyz.

monday evening was a quiet one for us in s block as no one was going out, but didn't feel like doing work either as it was the last week of term.

cereal texted me asking to borrow some vaseline for his chapped lips, and when he came into my room saw my penny board on the floor so decided to take it out for a skate.

the funniest accidental picture taken on my polaroid.

skate gAnG

we called out some of the boyz from cereal's slipper to join us outside in the car park (bear in mind this was at midnight and temperatures felt like they were sub zero)

i decided to take my new camera out for a quick spin too to test out its quality in low light settings, and i was quite pleased with these edgy skaterrrr pics!

none of these boys can surprisingly skate, but we did the best to capture au naturale photos.

we also started doing some parkour with the skateboard, and yes, joe rolled over a shrub and cereal smashed into a bush.

top floor in s block is where its at. choosing to move out from home and into halls may just well be one of the best decisions i've made in life. there's never a dull moment here, i've met some amazing people, and something is always on every hour of the day....

....every hour as in fire alarms being set off at 5am.

warwick ---> southampton.

on thursday night, loklok made another trip down to southampton before easter! we didn't do much that evening except eat loads of fish fingers, hash browns and chicken dippers. 

it was good to see each other so soon, and being in a long-distance really does make you appreciate every opportunity you get to be with each other :)

after cooking some noodles for breakfast and being pulled to my contract tutorial on friday, i met loklok at tesco to do our groceries and then went back to make some beef and pepper udon noodles.

friday was my flatmate gabs' birthday, and on saturday it would be kyall's and so we decided to head out to switch (my fave club) to go enjoy a good night with them all.

loklok invited my mum to a switch event on facebook to get two free shots.

unfortunately my girl friend nikki went home this weekend :( and so i had to rep us two ladies among this humungous group of 20 guys. at least loklok almost counts as my girl friend!!

i could easily say that this was THE best night out in southampton with these guys. the music was liveeeee, the atmosphere was madddd and everyone had so much fun! loklok also got on really well with all my mates and everyone enjoyed his company which was awesome!

after being at switch for shutdown (literally it was 4am and we were still dancing), we struggled to get a taxi but made it back home in one piece. as everyone was so drunk, two fire alarms from our block and our opposite block was set off resulting in everyone freezing in the 0 degree weather for 15 minutes.  

we snuggled back inside to hang on the stairs with the lads before ordering pizza at 5am and singing happy birthday to kyall as it was well and truly officially saturday!

the next day we woke up incredibly late of course. we made a big english breakfast and watched movies and youtube before being called by the lads to go shisha.

it was great fun knowing these guys more and enjoying their 'lad jokes'. i've also become obsessed with the face swap on snapchat - it is just so damn hilarious lmao.

glimpse of uni kitchens.

we came back at 11pm and cooked our dinner - chicken curry. it was the most satisfying and tastiest thing ever after coming in from the cold.

on sunday, we made some honey dumplings before i headed out to church for worship practice whilst loklok chilled in costa.

the sermon at church was pretty interesting today - the topic was stealing; particularly in the modern world sometimes you don't even realise you're committing a crime as it is so easy to just download a song off youtube or stream a movie!

we had to do an all nighter on sunday night again as loklok's coach was at 6:20am.

it was so so cold when we stepped out and the air literally felt like ice on my face. i'm glad though however that the sun is coming out much earlier now! coming back, i managed to enjoy the sunrise, before jumping into bed at 7am and a lecture at 2pm!

my sleeping pattern is almost non-existent to say the least.

sunday funday.

after zunen's party on saturday evening and getting home far too late for an early rise for church, loksze and i resorted to camping in mcdonalds for the morning with a good cuppa and a gloriously satisfying cheesy mcmuffin.

this recently renovated wall in soho mcdonalds had such a nice texture to it i couldn't resist but do a quick photoshoot in mcdonalds.

^^^ matching nails and a coat - that's when you know you have your life together.

after church and catching up with all my brothers and sisters, i headed off to see my grandparents, auntie, uncle, cousin and my family in chinatown for some dimsum. i hadn't eaten this good in a while and my tummy was so damn happy. 

i also got a chance to catch up with my cousin rita who i hadn't seen in a while except on snapchat.

i then hopped over to wetherspoons in a scurry as etain is back in london! they had just finished dining and so i joined them for a good chit chat sesh along with birthday girl karen, yas, katrina and loksze.

after seeing these beautiful smiley faces, loklok and i decided to join them for hillsong where we attended a second service before heading back to church to see some bros and play card games.

as loksze had to catch his train back to warwick at half 8, we went for an early dinner at wasabi.

though i got to admit i was a bit disappointed from the extremely overcooked salmon, eating hot food when it is so cold outside really is comforting.

and as for me, i headed back to southampton on monday morning amidst the rush hour. 

see you in easter, london!
