We arrived Newcastle on Sunday night around 8.30pm and went straight to Osbert's friend house. We left our luggage there and went out for dinner. I think we arrived at his flat approximately midnight. Really late though but who cares.
We got the airbag but don't really know how to pump air in so we decided to leave it. Poor Osbert had to sleep without the airbag. But it was nice of him to let me sleep on his bed. :)
The next day, I followed him to his Maths class. It was all revision. The class was boring. So, I decided to go shopping alone after his maths class. Marks & Spencer, Monsoon, etc. I practically walked around the city centre. I did buy something in the end after much persuasion of not buying anything for myself. Had lunch at
McDonalds with Osbert. He had to walk back for his labs after lunch. Went groceries shopping after he finished his labs.
That night, borrowed a hair dryer to pump the airbag but turned out that the airbag has its own in-built pump. No, the hair dryer was very handy, I dried my hair. 'Lucky me', quoted from Osbert.
The following day, he went to class alone. I stayed in his room till noon and took the bus to city centre, meeting him there. After that, he took me to look around the city. In the afternoon, we took the bus to Metro Centre. That place was awesome. I wanted to buy a lot of stuff but reminded myself that I cannot bring them back either to London or NZ. *big sigh..
Would it be better if I was staying here. Then, I can buy lots of stuff. *Ahem.. I shouldn't be actually. Poor Osbert had to walk in and out the shops with me. :P But he did say that he's
ok with it, so yup... You don't mind if I drag you shopping in London the next time? :D
Was thinking of posing doing the laundry but I don't think it looked like me doing the laundry

Mcdonalds in Metro Centre, taken by remote control
It's cool how we have the same camera, I didn't have my remote control so we used his to take photos for both cameras, amazing how both cameras needed just one remote control
The bridge in the background and The Sage which looks like a peanut
This was taken when we were walking on the bridge. You know what? I could feel the bridge shaking. It was scary.. :S
This is the bridge, called
Gateshead Millennium Bridge

In Metro Centre
We had dinner with one of his flatmate. His flatmate prepared 5 dishes!! Osbert prepared 3 dishes, one was prepared by his mum, he only heated and 'modify' it. O.. there may not be 8 dishes because some of the dishes wasn't on the table.
That night, Osbert got his new speakers. Man, the bass system is so cool. I so want one like that. I could just blast it out. Er.. actually I can't but I just love the speaker system. We also watched some movies though the quality isn't that good. Stayed up till almost 3am. I nearly fell asleep waiting for him to transfer songs from my hard drive as well.
The next day, I slept till 9.30am. Osbert got up to go to class. Only came back at 10
something am. At noon, we had
lasagna. Soon, I was to depart for London. *sob sob.. I'm going to miss Newcastle...
ok.. I'm going to miss him as well, miss punching him.. *
muahahaha...
This was taken on the second last day in the morning. I won't put yours la.. cos u do look like you just woke up and you said
your hair looks messy.
I found this photo in the camera which meant I forgot to upload some photos from my camera to the laptop when the Wong's family were here. Oops...
This was inside the the compound of the castle. Supposedly. Weren't allowed to take photos inside the church so we only took photos outside the church.
This is a cocktail made by Ally. It's really nice, I think I might try to make this for Em. Hehe, I don't know if you will like it or not. Might think of making for Mer and the rest too. Hehe..
