Queen's Mayball

I fitted into my ball dress which only cost 18GBP from ebay!! I actually bought it last summer for trinity ball, but ended up too fat due to last minute binging during exams. Having restrained myself (a little) during the greece trip it's conforting that it fits :D

The picture says it all ^_^
we ate non stop until midnight, having queued up for 4 rounds of oyster and king prawns, one of hog roast, twice for burgers and steak!! The eating didn't end there though, as we continued with banana and orea smoothies and doughnuts after an entertaining session of JJ being hypnotised. It is not until later that we found out he was only acting (all that time we were wasting valuable memory card space filming him acting) ai...But one guy seems that he was for real, I wonder whether he is the hypnotist's affliation or not...hmmm

I went back to work after sleeping 1 hour after the ball. I think I am going to die due to toxin build up.

Greece

Deep blue sea, bright sunshine, one Euro Gyros and a bunch of close friends. What else can you ask more??

I am definitely going to miss going travelling as a bunch of food loving and cheap travelling university students! It's so nice to have the energy and the opportunity just to possess a guide book and explore the country, not having to worry about ever getting bored or afraid of the opportunity cost lost.

I am so so glad that I have such a wonderful group of friends who I share so much in common (mainly the love for food =P) and lets hope the legacy goes on and we are within each other's reach throughout life ^_^

A close friend says it is an excuse to think that 'all good things come to an end'. I partially agree. Indeed, even though sometimes life naturally has its ups and downs, we shall try our hardest to cherish, however small, that very essence which gives meaning to life.


Just to prove that we DID do some proper tourist work: Here's the Acropolis in the background
