Living it up in London (Part deux)

London: Tue 24 July, 2007

The day has cometh, the release of my final exam result...I was as happy as can be...in celebration...

We visited Soho; London's very own China Town..we pranced and hopped about the place, finally landing ourselves in a cosy, quasi-posh eatery, and then it was off to H.Daz for ice-cream and sorbet...
Curious stares from Princess...dumpling making 101; clearly a "see no touch" policy has been instituted. I felt a pang of hunger walking passed such a great display of crisps...
Roast duck galore...salivating yet? See the odd Squid hanging there?
Wonder who revolutionalise the idea of using Mandarin alongside the English name?
A little Hong Kong of sorts...i hear Cantonese ever so often... A golden pavilion
Char Siew Bao (Roast meat bun)...Rice dumplings! Yummy...i drooled...sandwiches are bland.
Fancy a cigar?...the anti-smoking law has been contravened! Somebody call the Met Police!
A toast to friendship and success...
Playing with mirror and light!
My very own British Passport...perhaps in a decade from now?
My LSE student card against the score sheet.
The day of reckoning...I was on tenterhooks, finally, I got an A-, one of 18 (A,A-) out of a class of 60 students.
For the record, there was no A+ awarded, this is the LSE (read; superbly high standard), only George Bernard Shaw(nobel laureate; LSE alum) would have garnered an A+.
I am as happy as can be, my parents are proud, it was a worthwhile investment.
Thank you dad and mum, I am greatful to you for fulfilling my dream.
