Little Update on Sweden's trip


2 photos taken today around 4.30pm from Ellison building 5th floor.


Haiz,i cant sleep at this time at 1.16am T_T I was hungry.. Tonight, I just get digestive biscuits as my dinner, I'm kinda running out of fresh fruits & vege, kinda lazy to step out of campus to market, kinda lazy to cook tonight...As a consequence, physically lay on the bed for one hour before deciding to take a few bites of biscuits, though I'm actually craving for instant noodles ><

^^Little update on Sweden trip^^
Successfully booked sweden's train tickets, erm, not really, I was trying to use my hongleong credit card to book, I couldnt provide those information needed (eg. billing date), but i still received receipt and order number. Maybe my dad will receive the call to confirm the purchase. whatever it is, just allow me to board with my order number and receipt.

My initial plan was visiting Stockholm, umea, malmo, copenhagen and gotherburg (to pay a bloody helpful netfriend who provides me lots of information, tips and accomodation at her place). The problem is -- Sweden is so 'huge' that travelling time can easily consume 12hrs from city to city, cause I wanna get cheaper night trains and thus save my accomodation =x

2days ago, I was told 25sek tix (usual price can be 200-400sek) promotion for age under 25. BUT, fortunately i havent booked my tix... Today, she found out that the promo is only for those with SJ(train company)'s membership which I'm not eligible to apply for. While she has found out, she applied one, and it is FOC, for residents of Sweden =.=

Wasting my effort to search the good deals for 2 nights. Anyway, I still get a not-too-bad deal as a tourist, 458sek (though SJ holder can be as cheap as 50sek), for 2 trips. I have too little time in Sweden, so I drop the idea of visiting Malmo & Copenhagen T_T I have FULL 8 days to explore around. 3 cities, kinda just nice loh. 6jan reach Stockholm at 9.15pm, reach the downtown should be 11plus ald...15jan fly from Gotherburg at 12noon.

UMEA, located nicely at the central of Sweden, which preserves the higher probablity to see thick snow than Stockholm and southern cities, which I have been wanting to see!! And this is the main purpose of my trip!! The best still if I can see Aorora, northern light!! I wish, I wish... I hope I can endure -9degC there...

NET>Thanks for sending the photos... but then i lazy to upload liao..anyway SP students should know how our sensory labs look like, SP Lab is the best :p
