Amazing mystery tour inside London

-
Although I have been to UK for 2 and half years, there were still may sightseeing I haven't been to. Thanks the London University Ambassador Organisaion, gave us a amazing chance to discover more inside London.


Bless us, the weather on that day is so wet and rainy, I forgot my umbrella and had to buy one near the station!!! Thus please please, if you are traveling to London, please take the umbrella with you all the time (unless you really enjoy walking in the rain, which I personally don't like at all).



This is the picture taken at St. Paul's Cathedral, the mother church of Diocese of London. It is amazing pretty and tall, and it is one of the most famous  recognisable architecture in London. We were performing the 'Dragon Attacking the Church' here, but not much attention was attracted, as there was a big parade which was in memory of WW II proceeding just behind us. The people dead in WW II, please rest in peace.



Free Hugging!!! Hey guys, if some girls walking on the street and asking for a hug, can you please just offer it? Our poor leader needed to ask and hug thousand times, but bless her, most people were really nice and we got a lot go hugs!!!



Do you remember there was a scene in Harry Potter and Half-Blood Prince, some death eaters attacked Millennium Bridge, it wobbled and broke. We went to there as well! It was my first time seeing that bridge, felt like I was dumped into Harry Potter world at that time!
We did a mini perform there, pretending the bridge was wobbling, and 'had five' with people passing by. 
And for the transparent-face guy, I had no idea how did he do this, any ideas?




After 20 mins warm and sleepy travel by tube from the bridge, we were off by the Big Ben. No extra explanation needed, the Big Ben was the most famous sight in London. The place where it sits is a good mixture of ancient and  modern architectures.
While the ambassadors were performing a  'Human Big Ben', I asked another ambassador to do me a favour- taking pictures of myself! Taking pictures under Big Ben was my dream since I was young, and it was achieved on that day: )

Hey! Anyone please free us from the telephone booth!!! (actually 6 girls were in there!)


An ambassador was performing ' Oppa Gangnam Style' in a corner at Westminster. I was a bit worrying about people passing by might think we were mental.


After the mystery tour, we were offered lunch in a nice Indian restaurant , which is in Backyard Market near Aldgate East. I really like the spicy curry I ordered, but the bread is a bit too sweet for me. By the way, if you want to know any good Indian restaurant in London, I will sort it out later for you guys, because I love them as well!


I am really looking froward to having next trip with the ambassadors! Besides, I am so sorry stealing photos from any of you guys, hope you lovely guys will not mind. To be continued!

Happy birthday to me! The Rainforest Cafe, the Shard Bar and My Flat Party

There are about 6 very famous theme restaurant in London, as a vet student, I would like to make all my life related to animals, thus I chose the Rainforest Cafe  as the place to have my birthday meal. All my friends are excited.  There are two floors in the cafe, the ground floor have a lot of toys to sell, but they are free access, we have taken lots of pictures with cutie animals there. The basement level is the proper restaurant, and both floors are decorated like a real rainforest.  It doesn't matter how old you are, you can still be a child:) While we are eating, sound of rainstorm was played frequently, made it feel like we are really in the rainforest somehow. Then the waiter asked me standing on a chair, asked all others in the cafe singing Happy Birthday to me! So impressing!  Next stop! If you come to London, how can you manage to miss the Shard? We went to the Shard Bar located at 31st floor, aerially viewing the part of London alongside Thames riv

Such an Honor: Representing My Royal Veterinary College and Introducing London to the Whole World

Oh I just can not believe it is almost the end of this year's ambassador event. I have learnt so much from all the meetings, so as my English. And on 11th of June, all the ambassadors met up at the 2 more London Riverside Building , talked to visitors from all over the world, about the student collage life in London. I arrived there earlier for helping arranging the reception and meeting room, and the harp at the corner will be played in the meeting took all my attention.   Although I have not played harps before, the knowledge from piano helped me quickly sort out simple songs from the harp. Another two ambassadors worked together with me to arrange the reception, making sure all visitors coming in will have a certificate. Really stressful! Very surprisingly, although I have not prepared what to say at all, any detail about my lovely days in my Royal Veterinary Collage and London just came out automatically from my mouth, or, my heart. I can't stop telling vis

Surprisingly, a Chinese with very few Chinese friends but a lot of British friends. " Jiayue, you know," said my manager," you are really different from other Chinese,you are too easygoing and too native now." Yes, that's me. I have been to UK for only 2 years and half, but I think myself getting along with local people in a 'China developing rate'. If you are fresher coming to UK, you probably find people here are a bit 'too polite and somehow cold'. However, that is absolutely not the real case. Most of them are extremely easy going and kind, but you do need some tips to make sure getting along well with them. I am now sharing my tips and experience with you, hopefully you will find them useful. Tip one: free yourself from your little prison!  So many international students lock themselves inside their rooms, watching tele, eat in ,only go out occasionally with people from their own country... Stop doing that please! You have to j
