Every beginning has an end

We are back in Singapore, still thinking of the day we left for UK, and now everything's like over. Time flies indeed, but i can definitely say that for the past week, I had been enjoying myself to quite a large extent.
Plane
The movies arent that great. Its the talking part of the whole flight that got us into the holiday mood, and of course the pokemon game =) metapod is worth training, and watching movies at the same time with losh and zab is quite amusing indeed. Return trip was much shorter, if you understand that the world is spinning to our favour, but we slept for 5 hours and after we woke up, 3 of us were stoning completely, then it was the turbulence which we called it rollercoaster ride 101 and finally the touch down.
Food
Most of the food there were great, and i spent most of my money eating. Chinese restaurant was average, besides the one that Mr chan brought us to, that was superb. Italian pasta's and meal, steak, fish and chips, pizza.. Thats where most of my money disappeared to. Harrod's jellybeans and lots of chocolates, fudges, sandwiches etc
Masterclasses
Ours went well, and i was very happy with it. Chan was right, even if you gained nothing out of this trip, the masterclasses itself was sort it already. We sounded very differently before and after the class, and we have recordings to prove, its like 1 plus hours of finetuning. The guy who took the violin masterclass was proed, too pro liao.
Performances
The one at trinity with their undergrads was very nice, they are too pro for us liao. Imagine them as bryan's being multiplied. Though there were very few audiences, the whole concert still turned out to be a great one. The one at sussex though had A LOT of people watching, but their standard isnt as great as we had expected. However it was still nice working with them. Both halls were simply amazing..
Hotels
We only stayed in 2 different hotels though we changed 3 times. The one at west sussex wasnt as bad as we had expected, i mean its alright lar. The other one was big with bouncy beds and huge televisions. Both heating systems was bad and i was practically frozen on the last night. Rooming with Mr Chan isnt that bad afterall =P
Sightseeing/shopping
We didnt really do much sightseeing there, its more of a stop and go thing. The only 3 places we went down was the pavillion, royal observatoy and the tower of london, dont think i missed out any. Of course we visited the music schools there where they had ownage recording systems, much better than ours. Im not a good shopper, as i have said earlier, so the only thing that i buy is food food and more food. and of course lots and lots of bday presents, so many people's birthday this 2 months. One more thing, Harrod's really big, not because we got lost inside it (or maybe because of this), but they sell so many things, you name it you got it..
Others
The train ride on that shopping night was a total disaster as there was sever delay. And ame said something about appreciating our train system. haha, i agree! but its a nice experience. Of course there's an incident which made me go really angry, but i shall not say it here. The second bus driver was the worst among the 3, he got lost in his own country!! and it wasnt that far from the hotel, just that he turned left instead of right at the beginning, so we were travelling in the wrong way, and his attitude is bad. Austin showed his true self on the trip, real comedian..

This week was really great, probably the best in the year, and i havent practise my violin for ages.
So now we are back home, but i have new responsibilites. And i guess that its time for me to start working on next year's stuff. gtg, still suffereing from jet lag =P
