Woohoo!

I'm mean!!!! You can just abt imagine how happy I was when Dad told me that mighty 4 will not be coming to UK..and we're not going on a tour in Europe because it's too expensive..gonna cost abt $3-4k per person.

So the next plan is to go to Shanghai. Ok, I know it doesn't make a difference because I'm still gonna be in the same situation (having to face ya noe who) whether it's in UK or in Shanghai. But oh well, nothing's finalised yet..and even if it's finalised that Shanghai's the place to go, when the situation isn't very nice, then I'll see how I'm gonna handle it. No point feeling irritated or pissed or upset abt anything now.

I have no idea why Mum wants to go to Shanghai sooooooo much. I'm not fussing abt going there since I've always been fascinated abt their architecture, and I want to take a look to see if it's so. Heard that there are 2 parts of Shanghai, one being ultra modern, the other being the type we see in Shanghai Grand. I think I'm more interested in the latter, and definitely if I get to go, I will want to do lots of sight-seeing. I'm sure my Mum is more interested in shopping herself mad there since things are drastically cheap, but nope..shopping, despite being one of my loves, isn't gonna be my main purpose.

I started having crazy thoughts abt Shanghai when I was revising just now. For those who didn't know this, I have a craze over cheongsams. I think they're beautiful and my dream is to be able to wear one during my wedding (if I ever get married lah..haha...any applicants?). Always wanted to get one tailor-made by a professional Shanghainese tailor. I don't think it'll be cheap..but it'll be cool if I can own a piece.

Aiyah...I'm such a dreamer. I shall try to put this thought aside...will dream abt it after my exam..haha :)

Was on the way home from hospital in Sophie's car when this scenery caught my eye totally.

There was this big hill....with tall green trees with bits of brown and in the middle of the hill, stands a ancient castle. Only the castle and no other architectural structures around. The sun was shining right down, making it look really beautiful because of the yellow rays.

Just in case my description is extremely bad..here's some pictures to illustrate it:

Me: Do you know what that is?
Sophie: Castell Coch. The castle I told u abt last time. Beautiful isn't it?
Me: Extremely. It's the only thing standing in the middle of the hill.
Sophie: Yeah. The entire hill belongs to this millionaire, and because he wanted a castle on his hill, he got someone to build it.
Me: Cool... *still looking at the castle*

Owning a hill...one of my craziest and wildest dreams of all times, and knowing for a fact it's impossible to ever own one in Singapore. But in UK, it's possible...and someone owns/owned one. I then remembered telling someone before I want to own a hill, and plant trees with the bottle of saga seeds I have. And this park will always be filled with loads and loads of red saga seeds. What an unrealistic dream right? Where am I gonna get the $$$ to do so? I can't imagine myself being its owner...can you?

Because of this castle, I have been thinking about castles the whole evening too. Goodness. Am thinking of travelling alone during a whole weekend to go see Windsor Castle and visit the famous Eton College. Shall keep that as one of my plans after my exams...hopefully I get to carry it out. :)

Okies..enuff rubbish. I better get back to revision..hehe...
