  Ok me and Victor today went out to look for rice to buy after class. We both got 5 kg packs each and I bought a can of lycee the canned type and probably gonna open it later tonight after dinner, which would probably be a steak dinner for me since I got the materials for it only that I am probably missing some sauces but then again the way I cook is for the healthy and my grandmother would complain why so little added? Yes people I look healthy, live healthy and am healthy like it or not. Even some of the girls that have come over due to my flatmate's cooking as their fridge was broke and the new one blocked the door so they came over to eat and one look at what I ate and such they were going wah, healthy guy. In the spur of the moment I did not know what to say as I was quite out of it at that time after gaming for a few hours on end that time. So the place we went to for lunch after that was called Bangkok City. A Thai restaurant run by 3 ladies from Thailand and 2 of em were the cooks while one manned the main counter. So we tried it out and ordered out food and drinks. I had the tom yam chicken soup with fried beef and rice and he had the same but chicken instead. Was good to be eating Thai food once again and even the waitress told us that its only mild spice and we could order extra hot next time if we wanted. Both of us agreed and said yeah next time we come its gonna be extra hot. First time eating there and for a price of a 6 pounds each it was good in a long while.

  Next time, looking for more food in town or was it looking for more grub to get? Hehe.
 

That Sunday they did unplug for the entire worship team and for the first time I was thinking whoa cool. So the Friday that followed eventually we attended the international students fellowship which was held at one of the church members house. Ken and Isabelle were the host and boy there were a lot of people there. Now I practically have a 3rd father and 3rd mother. Biological parents are the first, Pas Long and Sis Sherlin were 2nd set and now 3rd set. Well Ken has been asking me and Kings to go over once in a while to jam with the guitars. So we'll probably do it after the assignment which is due on the 22nd of Oct. To further boot Ken managed to get to me and we started talking after church and asked if I played any instrument in particular. Thus now I'm a candidate to join the team but not now until they announce they have a proper meeting place and are asking for new members. The musicians here are really good. As if they are on a totally whole different level from what I know back in Banting. Today most of the people went for the conference in London and Pas Joseph Prince was speaking there and they were really touched. So the bassist and electric rhythm were two Chinese guys and yes they rocked hard like I do for some of you who know what I did back then in Banting.

 Well for now that is all from me. More pictures to come at a later date.

 Classes for me have started since and also I have my assignments and am now waiting for the notice to be posted on whom my supervisor would be for my project. So far my choices for the first 3 are microbiology, toxicology and bioinformatics. Depending on which one I am offered I am in for something new and also yes I have access to tons of scientific journals now for my research and such.

 First up is my medical topic research and currently we're studying tuberculosis. Yes an age old disease where it seems that it is coming back and also lots of new things. So far I downloaded around 8 journals and read only 3 of them. Reading scientific papers is not easy, rather it is something that people would find rather boring. So sitting down in front of the computer looking through a paper that is almost 10,000 words long for the next 15 minutes of so is rather boring then again you do learn a lot from them as they have many titles and such. The broad spectrum of what is written and what is available amazes me. Compared to my days in INTI where I did not have much access to scientific stuff and also the poor internet connection which discouraged such. Now is a different issue all in all. Much better as compare to last time. Hehe.

 Well lets not bore you with anymore facts as it is. Now I have to think up of what I'm gonna eat for dinner as lunch was rice which I boiled with not enough water and added two raw eggs he moment it cooked Japanese style. That was good but thats something more like for breakfast. So I need to do some shopping at this rate on my own. Really need to get out of this small room. 

For more pictures if you would like to see them head over to my gallery titled Newcastle and check out the rest there.

  On to the other nights, I took my group here to visit the millennium bridge and yeah I am kinda the one of the few navigators here to them who can get round town without a map of sorts once walking through and also finding my way around even if its for the first time in the place. We also had the chance to see the bridge rise up courtesy of a boat club which had people partying on board go under and then back again. Thats nice and The Sage, oh yes if you could only see the place at night. Thats one glass dome full of light. In the end we took the bus back to Haymarket interchange for 80p. Some how I'm still not used to not having to use something like a card where I can tap in and out of the bus like when I was in Singapore. So till now I have to get used to carrying more coins with me. Pictures next time I get the phone to connect properly.
 

 To start off, we have a hearty lunch.

 A quick walk down the shopping arcade near Eldon's.

 Then we moved past Northern Goldsmiths where a gold clock can be seen hanging outside over the corner.

 Next we pass by Earl Grey's monument which is also Monument Metro station stop. The metro is like the subway here in UK. From here we head down Grey street passing lots of shops.

 Down further pass Royal Theather. Which leads eventually to the River Tyne.

 On the other side of the bank we can find this building called The Sage. Its a music arena where live bands come to perform and such. Pretty nifty place only that we would have to check up the dates of performances and such.

 And finally we come across none other than, then Millennium Bridge. Yes this is the very bridge on the River Tyne.

 This here is for further prove that it is indeed the bridge.

 The trip ended with a quick chill out on the bridge.

 On a quick note, the building next to the bridge was the Baltic Art Museum. The building used to be a flour mill but in time became an Art Museum so the wording on the building is probably going to be misleading. Another example would be the Biscuit Factory, yes it is another art museum also which used to be a biscuit factory. Even the staff that started out here also thought the same but found out the light when visiting it.

Indeed this place is uniquely its own and with more to come, more pictures as we continue on our journey through this age old city which has structures dating more than 100 years or more.
