Imperial

Well, school has started for me... Imperial is quite an interesting place. So is the UK. Well, being located at south kensington, the building are really nice and very different from what you would see in Singapore. The next thing that you will realise is the cars here, gone are the prevalence of japanese cars. Instead, the most common cars you see are mecedes, BMWs, Minis, VWs, Porches and Lambos. Hmm... Yeah, the lambo is not that common but common enough that you could probably see at least one every day. Which is damn cool!!! Haha, just saw a 6 door medeces benz limo on the way back. There is also the smart cars which are really small and supposedly environmentally friendly. Quite common too, but i dun like it. The good thing is that it is so small that you could like reverse park in a parallel parking lot.

The next really wow! factor that blew my mind away is that the imperial student union actually owns 5 bars, 2 cafes and the book store in imperial college campus and ... they have a turnover of like 5.5 million pounds!!! Thats insane, all the money goes back to the students through the clubs and societies... how cool is that!!! I din know that the student union is suppose to make money, let alone 5 million pounds!!!

Haha... yup.. I feel poor manz. Even the terrace houses that my room window over looks cost a million quid each!! haiz... their rooms look so much more cosy than mine... Anyway, just played ultimate frisbee and had a good exercise... it was tough... cold air in your lungs... but the cool weather also makes you feel less tired... and less sweaty... haha... Maths test went well, it was quite easy, the hard part was expressing myself... kinda forgot how to show your workings and stuff... but it should be fine... good thing i took f maths and studied mechanics, if not i would be screwed... Dinner!! time to go
