Dear all,
How are you all doing? How's the weather? As hot as ever or beginning to step
into the raining season? Here, the weather still as cold as ever (in between 8 -
11 Celsius) even though we are in the beginning of the spring season. According
to weather forecast, we should be seeing some nice weather (18 and above
Celsius) this Saturday onwards. Had my 1st experience walking under hail rain
last Monday. Pretty excited about it when it happened. But can be quite painful
when the frozen bits hit the skin. Overall, I enjoyed it. Afterall, it my 1st
time encounter such a rain as I mention earlier. My aunt told me that the heavy
rain over here is like the light version of rain back home. Our heavy rain will
be their thunderstorm and if this happen, all the public transport services will
halt.
Been around, sightseeing some of the places over here. Been to Buckingham Palace
to see the Changing of Guards ceremony. A very huge crowd of tourists were there
as well. The ceremony, I’ll sum it in 3 words, DAMN KUA CHEONG! Been to some
of the old cathedral too. Only 1 of the management allowed me to snap some
pictures. The cathedrals here are pretty old, but they are awfully beautiful,
both internal and external. I can really sense the calmness and the peacefulness
even when I was in the cathedrals’ compounds. Visited the 3 museums so far. I
found out that the government here really take an effort to invest in the
museums. From gadgets for you to meddle around so that you will get a better
understanding on how things works to simulation rooms to experience the feelings
(if you get what I mean), they have it all. I will have to say I really enjoyed
my time in the museums here than the one back at home. I will be going back to
those museums for another visit because I haven’t finish exploring all of
them. I can really spend days in just 1 museum.
Watched my 1st movie in cinema yesterday and it was the premier! It's the movie
that raises a lot of controversy around the world currently. It's The Passion of
the Christ. After watching that show, I was like WOHHH after watching it.
Unfortunately, this movie is ban in Malaysia. But luckily, we have our
modern-day 'Robin Hood'. The movie-pirate gang. People, I strongly recommend
this movie. Try to watch it if you are able to get a hand on it. It is a great
movie to watch.
Here are some of the
pictures taken during sight-seeing. I have a lot of it and I would like to send
them all to you all but unfortunately, due to the size limitation, I can only
send this much to you all. I will be constantly using this website to update you
all about me. Will drop you a memo in your mailbox if I update this website.
Well, going off now. Write back to me at "hendrick_yong@yahoo.com"
ok? Would really love to hear what you all been up to lately. Say HI! to your
family for me k? Lots of MUACKS!!!
God Bless.
Peace,
me
PS: Soong En and Evan, could one of you please forward this mail to Cindy and
pass me her email address?
