This is my 4th day in London. i cld only start my journal today, coz a lot of happenings in these very short of 4 days. i became so ‘famous’ since my 1st day here =.=" i don’t need to introduce myself, coz ppl will noe. " oh…sansan…the one who pengsan on the first day..!"

************************************************************

19th march, we arrived as a group in Heathrow airport, London. we were brought to our accomodation in Brentford. the weather was a mass difference from msia, as the temperature on our first night is only 4 deg celcius. the flight was a nightmare…as the activities for us in the plane is jus sleep, eat, n listen songs for 13 hours. The hostel here is just nice n comfortable.
Having girls’ probs could be disastrous (so my title written ‘Red’). n becoz of tt ‘girls prob’, i could hardly sleep at 1st night here. ended up to wake up at 4am, and suffered alone here. this is the time i miss home most. until the next morning, i stil feeling unwell but it reached the time to get ready to go campus for orientation activities.
   Unfortunately, i started seeing things blurly…n slowly..black out, unconciously.
   Fortunately, there were ppl around me to help me out…i rmb two guys carried me  back to my room where later on i slowly recovered my conciousness. some help me to call the reception and uni staff (amol steven etc..). so in 10mins, i was told tt the ambulance had arrived n the rescue team was on their way to my room. i was awake, but feeling weak. they checked my pulse, my body temperature and blood. everyth was okay. so they advised me to rest alot, and get myself used to the weather here. thus, i missed the 1st day activity and ended up sleeping WHOLE day until cindy, joe and sherina brought me food at night when they come back.
i felt so bad to trouble everyone around me…sherina stay all the time by my side and accompanied me when the 999 team arrived; christine provided me her panadol supply n hot water; cindy was the most unlucky where i fainted on her pity skinny body =( n everybody who helped me a lot and care for me. i’m truly appreciated…thx a lot frens.
