These originals are from a group called The Lonely Island. Their songs are totally mindless and pretty creative. The first 2 videos are recently discovered by me and the last 2 helped make my mugging for the 1st Professional MBBS earlier this year more enjoyable =] Have fun!

London, United Kingdom (5th-8th August '09)
Our final destination was London! There was so much to be done in London that we hardly covered the tip of the iceberg...
Having caught the Phantom of the Opera in Singapore, I wanted to check out the original West End version and compare the differences. I recognized the actors from the musical staged in the Esplanade and left Her Majesty's Theatre preferring the play I saw back home. Perhaps it was to do with the seating...
Anyhow, I caught Les Miserables on the last night before we left and was glad I did. It was such a beautiful play...Simply brilliant! I felt that the production made use of pretty simple props but was able to bring out the desired effect due to the killer revolving stage. That was the bomb!

Dover, United Kingdom (4th August '09)
Dover. This was my favourite place out of all the places we visited. A small, somewhat quaint town where the White Cliffs are located. I felt immediately at home when we stepped out of the train station to a map of Dover where Marine Parade could be found =]
This was also where we had our killer adventure! Pictures speak a thousand words...so let us begin! =]
Coincidence =]
I found Marine Parade! It was also built facing the sea...
The White Cliffs of Dover in the distance...We hiked all the way there =]
This was actually a very dangerous as the land I am lying on is sloping downwards!
The adventure begins on our way back to the town centre. We decided to try an alternative way back and I believed there was a way back by the beach. Therefore, we begin our journey down the zigzag path to the beach.
We then had to climb down this really tall ladder to finally reach the beach
The rocks we had to climb over to reach the steps near the port which supposedly leads to the town centre...I think....The intial plan was to walk near waters to avoid climbing, but the tide was rising, we had no choice but to move inland and climb...
After about 45mins of climbing , we reached the steps I saw near the port. We were quite shocked to see a locked gate in front of us. We are stuck! There is no time to back track as the rising tide will sweep us out to sea! The only way out was to pick up the phone outside the gate...
There is always time for a picture to capture our adventure =]

We waited for the police to come to our rescue. They took our student cards and recorded our names and particulars. We then took the police car back to the town centre. What a nice way to explore a place! =]
Liverpool, United Kingdom (3rd August '09)
This destination was for Jiajie's pilgrimage to Anfield. He and I visited both stadiums and I came to a conclusion that Old Trafford was much more classy than Anfield but the Liverpool fans are really with their team through thick and thin. They are indeed the 12th man on the pitch; my hair stood when I watched how the Liverpool fans travelled to Istanbul to support their team in the Champions League Final against AC Milan which turned out to be as great as the comeback from Manchester United against Bayern Munich in 1999.
Manchester, United Kingdom (1st-2nd August '09)
This destination was planned purposefully by Jason for my pilgrimage to Old Trafford! =] Thank you Yipster! I will let the pictures do the talking...
Old Trafford

Silverware in the museam
Names of all the players who played for Manchester United Football Club
The dressing room
Rooney might have sat where I was sitting =]
The ultimate 4-lung midfielder Park Ji Sung
Tunnel
Entrance into the pitch
Home team!
I really wanted to get my hands on some pitch turf, but the security was really crazy. The closest I got to was touch the pitch =]
This killer photo was taken illegally as I sneaked behind the posts placed to prevent visitors from getting onto the field and proned to capture. It has been shortlisted for inclusion in the 9th edition of the Schmap Manchester Guide! Cool beans =] I will keep you guys updated if it has been chosen.
