Cause I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane...

And so, the end is inevitably here. Its quite an emotional affair as this place at Room 3 - Flat 307 is where I had called "Home" for a short period of a year.

Sure shit had happened during my 1 year stay at the New Student Village @ UWE Frenchay, Bristol. E.g. Lift breaking down, Shitty arsehole running around knocking on doors at midnight etc etc But nonetheless its still quite a nice place to call "Home", gotta grow to love the room with an en-suite bathroom and thicker walls, unlike the slums Caroll Court which is a stone throw's away from NSV. Hehe.

Memory is a way of holding onto the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose.

That quote just aptly summarises the whole post actually. Tee hee. Now wouldn't you want to kill me for making you read through the whole emo post.

Just a little sentimental photos for readers to enjoy the nice scenery at the NSV, just scroll on below. (Note: Pictures are of courtesy from Fer "Mrs. Bear" Lynn)

Gloomy outcast by the skies, nonetheless NSV is standing tall & proud over Caroll Court

A great ol' tree, and unlike Malaysians (in the name of DEVELOPMENT), they don't chop down trees like these

Itadakimasu

Not to be outdone by Mei's delicious and sumptious Japanese food post in her blog, here's one post dedicated to compete with hers. =P

Anyways, the setting is at Obento, located at the Bristol City Centre, a stone's throw away from the usual stop that the Ulink bus stops at the Victoria Street's stop. Quite a small outlet, but it did indeed had some good music being played that helped nuture the elegant-feeling atmosphere, except its a bit pricier at £139 for a dinner for 5 people; but hey, good food always come with a better price tag ain't it?. And the event? Was to be in conjunction with Edward Saw's 23rd Birthday dinner and also to satisfy both Edward and I's craving for Japanese food (thanks to Mei :S).

The food surprisingly came quite fast, right before both the three of us (Ed, Jon and me) could say "Gief Food!" And most importantly, we left as a satisfied customer, both spiritually and physically (the stomach of course!). Meh, its getting pretty tiring writing up this post, so I'll let the pictures to do the talking.
