Attended my second carol service for the week last night at Holy Trinity Brompton, an Anglican church just 3 minutes away. The songs they sang were so similar to those that we did for our carol service! But their church choir is sooo good! Impressive... the orchestra too. Most of us who went were in the IC Christian Union choir and we were grinning and exchanging looks at each other when we heard their songs. Their Christmas Messages were meaningful as well.
For dinner we went to the 'kebab place' (nobody can ever remember its name) past the tube station. It was not bad... but for most of that dinner we were busy planning tomorrow's dinner - more about that later!
I thought that I would have a quiet weekend but no...
Not when I'm surrounded by craaaazeeee people! I'm becoming one of them myself (which is unfortunate).
After dinner, upon our return to Linstead:
Endless rounds of mahjong in the dining hall - they played it last night too, until 2am, but I wasn't there.
Another fencing showdown - Amar and I decided that we'll have one last game before we leave for the hols.
More entertainment from the talented pianists - plus more requests from Alex for 'Polly put the kettle on'
Talks and exchanges of advice for levelling up in Diablo - I need to catch up!
Mad Brits taking pics of a naked friend who regularly runs laps around the Prince's Gardens outside - the guys clapped and cheered while the girls looked away... and I donned my mask.
Fellow S'poreans and M'sians from the Beit and Southwell halls came over to Linstead too! Come... come to Linstead... where everything's happening!
But do not expect to leave before 3am...

*yawns* I wonder what I'm doing up so early. Gonna get some shut-eye later. Lab report due tomorrow... first things first.
