12th Feb. I needed to get away for this Chinese New yEar. I didn't want to spend my Chinese New Year in my cabin so I booked a ticket to Bath for 2 days. There are 2 unexpected things that happened. First, the bus to Southampton missed me. I was at the bus stop and saw it just went pass me without stopping. THAT is so UNFAIR! And I had no choice but to call a cab which cost 20 pounds. Luckily there are 2 Nigerians who also missed the bus would like to share the cab with me =D
Arriving at Bath Spa Station, I was looking for a leaflet map but there wasn't any there. There's only a big map outside the train station =S
NOw I had to find my accommodation which I know roughly where it was but I couldn't find it at first. Instead I found this CELSIUS ICE BAR which is in my list =D but I didn't go in until I found my accommodation. So when I found my accommodation, it was above a bar name Belushi's and their drinks were cheap + I had a discount of 10% with my accommodation card. So I ordered "A FEW" drinks before I went to CELSIUS ICE BAR.

The 2 Shots above, I forgot their name =D Its served in shot glass made of ice. You can even bite off the ice but most of them threw it on the floor. One thing I remember and I was shocked, the bar girl looked exactly like Nerissa.

She's the hottest girl in the club =D That's all =D
When the night ended, I went to a takeaway shop to get something to eat and there I met a girl name Dany. She's taking Acting and this is her last year here. Her parents are in Hong Kong and she will be going back. She told me she speaks *SIU SIU* cantonese. KAWAII~!! She also said she'll most probably end up as an English Teacher in HK. I was suppose to walk her home that night but she met her housemate on the way who was taking a cab so you know~~

Bath Abbey
Woke up early in the morning, hangover and take a tour around bath. Seems quite fun when it takes quite some time for you to make something clear and cant seem to think quick.

Thermae Bath Spa
Finish walking around city and parks, since its *Night 30th for the Chinese* I planned to try out the spa but the queue was twice longer than the queue for Gucci in Westfield London during boxing day. Cancelled again =( So I went back to hostel for a rest and fell asleep. When I woke up, I get to know a girl name Jessica who's just at the bed beside mine. She's from Canada. She just graduated high school, 18 years of age, still unsure what she wants to do so she's gonna camp in UK for 3 months. Can you believe it? She's kinda special girl =D
Chattered with her for quite sometime before dinner time. Worst *Night 30th* for me, I had Chinese Buffet alone in a Chinese Restaurant. Now complains are:
Stated Lemon Chicken, no lemon taste + too watery
Stated Malaysia Curry, not red enough, no curry smell + its more like maggi curry sup
Sweet & Sour soup, real bad, don't know how to describe
Sweet Corn soup, seemed like there wasn't any corn in the soup, + not enough corn starch (too watery)
Malaysia Rojak - this I wouldn't want to try. Not even a single person took it and by the looks, so damn worse than Lai Fatt.
Cost of Buffet 11.50 pounds for all that crap. But I think 11.50 for a corn soup that I missed for a few months its not that bad after all =D
