heya...
apparently that's how the glaswegians greet each other... that's a stark difference from hearing bonjour / bonsoir ... but it's ok... just some getting used to that there are so many old people here.
i'm finally at my brother's place... after leaving home on the 8th dec... i'm finally here. yes. sending 16kg luggage up to glasgow, just for king aaron. my whole luggage was full of his crap, so of course i made him carry it. but seeing the look on his face as i presented each and every single item from singapore over, it was worth it... haha... hey, i brought ALOT of things over ok.
anyway, i'm sick and tired... though it's a hard fight to see which one takes precedence. my brother and i got so sick by the 5th day in paris that we both just refused to get out of bed. wat a waste huh, but it was prob for the best, cos friday was the day when paris had a super mama bad storm which killed 5 people. oh well.
so right now i'm sitting at my brother's desk, using his end of the internet, talking to people in singapore. wat a reversal of roles. it seems as if i'm on the other side now, looking in. i miss home, but yet, the freedom i have travelling alone is enriching.
i have taken a million pictures. alot of which are of the food that i've eaten in paris, nice and london. and trust me, it was good food. but... BUT, today's dinner, my brother's home cooked dinner was better than any of the french/italian/chinese food i've had for the past 14 days.
today's dinner was of oven baked tiger prawns with parsley and garlic, chili soaked chicken wings, asparagous and mushrooms, and pasta. it was seriously REALLY good. kudous to king aaron.
i will upload photos of my trip soon, but here are the links of those photos taken before i left:
