It's been a week since i came back from UK, and i have finally managed to shake off the jet-lag problem now. For the 1st few days since i'm back, i can't really sleep well during the night as it is about 3 to 4 pm in UK then. But i have to adjust back fast as i have to go straight back to work the following day after touchdown.
Well, this is my 1st time going overseas with a fren, and this experience is really great. We followed the tube map, did some research online & with some help from his sis & brother-in-law, we can basically explore anywhere within the zone 1 to 3. Anything further than that, we have to top-up.
In UK, we been to Tower Bridge, London Eye, Buckingham Palace, Madame Tussard, the Emirate stadium, the Stamford Bridge etc just to name a few. Outside the zone 3, is windsor castle & the Old Trafford.
Then we went to France for 4 days, Eiffel Tower, the Lourve Pyramid, Arc De Triomphe Etoile, Notre Dame, Stade de France etc.
The ability to spend & not working is great, as you can enjoy & relax urself there w/o worry abt anything at all. Just sleep, eat, spend & take photos. The most nasty part abt this is that, someday ur enjoyment will end and this is when you are back to reality.
Back to Singapore, right after i landed, i started to work the next day. All the work that i have abandoned for 2.5 weeks all came to haunt me: urgent shipment, endless problemetic product failures, missing tools & equipment, broken pins etc.
Then the following week, my part-time school term start, lesson on Mon, Wed & Fri every week from 1800 to 2100.
All these, i have to endure for the next 4 yrs. And hopefully, that's is when i can go on holiday again :)
*** Old Trafford - the Theatre of Dream: it's is really my dream comes true to visit the stadium of my favourite team of all times, Manchester United since 1997. The journey is expensive, but it's just a once in a lifetime experience. :)
