9 March 07 part three To school we go

After unloading our luggage in our room and nuah-ing for a while, we were on our way again. Trying to make it to school in south kensington. Need to collect our matriculation card. To get to the campus, we decided to take a bus. View along the bus ride is certainly more interesting than the tube underground. We alighted and walked towards the natural history museum.


We were taking a "long" cut. Instead of just going to the entrance on exhibition road, we went one big round to queen's gate. We were always walking in circles. We nearly missed the sheffield building while walking straight. The signage was on the opposite side. Luckily i saw that the building on our left read "sheffield building". Sharp eyes are always welcome! We went up to the admin office to register as a student and received a note to collect the matriculaiton card from the security office. However, the security office was not due to open till 345pm. So, we decided to look for lunch. R wrote down Cafe BMS at SAFB. Off we went in search of good food. Yup, there is a cafe, but no food!!! The prepared food counter was already closed. Oh well, we would just take photos then.



Queen's tower. It's so cold that our fingers got numbed while trying to take photos for each other. i forgot to install the nikon picture perfect software onto my samsung. So, i cant stitch fotos together!



Closer look at the top of the tower.




Building in school. Not very nice looking.
I love clouds. Once a fren mentioned that she dislikes the clouds. Mar the appearance of the clear blue skies. But i think clouds make the sky more interesting. You can see so many paintings in the sky.

It was close to 345pm. We walked back to the security counter and waited. Two other people were already waiting for the counter to open as well. The counter really opened after 345pm and not earlier. Had to take a mug shot for the card. No retakes. Horrible photo. My eyes were going to close. Biopolis photo still can choose and retake..... Sigh. Cant stand having horrid pics.
Mission completed for the day. We were too tired to venture to hyde park. Just wanted to grab a bite. Initially we wanted to eat in school. There is a senior room. Only seniors can go in! We could have eaten there but we din. Ended taking away a chicken escalope panini at a cafe. Back to the hotel we went.
