Weston Park Museum

Recent life was quite routine n nothing special to write about.. T.T anyway, me and 4 Chinese classmates today visited Weston Park Museum in Sheffield. It is a relatively small museum though in the town. I always walk pass it whenever i go to the Uni Sports Center.. neva got a chance to go in till today. :p the most important thing is: free admission!

Following are the pics i've taken back in there..

Here's the ordinary stuff in a museum.. about the famous steel of Sheffield

Market!

Wondering why i put these market pics on? itz in the museum! all the meats are fake! itz about the market that are so common in the life of people in Sheffield

Some of the dinosaur fossils.. cool stuff

Hehe.. KONG!

The Ancient Rhino! looks real doesn't it? looked warm as well.. T.T cold here

'The French in Cairo', one the paintings in the Museum.. din noe have such drawing.. :p

One of the chinese, Xia Ran told me the museum took 3 whole years to build it.(kinda long for a small museum..) The design inside made me felt like goin around in a shopping mall ler! Nice design and a perfect place for a family with small children to visit. Lotz of facilities inside are meant for children usage, making them feel fun while looking thru those boring history!

Juz another pic of the building in Sheffield: 'Millennium Gallaries Winter Garden'. Awesome design!


p/s: Last thursday was the first time i drank so much of alcohol! Met a new fren, Sam, back there in a disco and he treated each of us a bottle of beer! Finished it and Sam heard i neva drink, he treated me another bottle! made me almost drunk that nite! ^^

Haha, this time i went to Birmingham! went there from friday nite until sunday nite, din visit anywhere though, such as football stadium, underwater world.. though me n my old buddies there went to city centre, where the main train station, Birmingham New Street is located. We planned to eat a lunch buffet in a japanese restaurant which just cost u 5 pound! haih.. we went there like 12.45pm oso the queue was so long edi lar... sad.. they told me they come here every weekend b4 1pm then u will surely get a place.. but not this time.. so unfortunate.. so we simply went to a chinese restaurant to have our lunch lo... hehe.. the roast duck rice i always wanted to eat since i come to UK.. yay!

Actually I din do much things over there other than watching drama, playing 3v3 dota n basketball lo.. T.T, n i got injured for playing basketball oso.. i played twice when i was there: 1st time becoz of the slippery n rough surface made my hand n ankle bleed when i fell down.. the next day when i played again, my finger hit the ball hard n my knee get knocked as well.. though i was quite enjoy it la.. T.T

I cooked for their dinner as well! haih.. but it was a failure.. coz i bought the wrong oil.. i was suppose to buy concentrated soy sauce then i bought dark soy sauce, making the meal became kinda strange lo.. though it was eatable la.. :p

Overall i enjoyed it pretty much. hehe, especially got chance to play dota again.. syok la.. hehe.. got chance i will come to visit them again.. ^^

p/s: for the lunch n dinner on Sunday, i ate at the same kebab store near their hse: Adam's Place! (they 5 ppl always go there to eat 1) haha.. juz lazy to cook.. :p the workers there were like so happy to see us twice a day.
