Halfway thru..

Its jus 22 more days left on the calendar for me. Jus changed my flight one day earlier.. will be home on the 18th of june!!!

Lately.. wit the wet weather and crazy exam marathons and all.. everything seems to be..

GLOOMY..

















Feels like everything around u is jus closing in on u.. wit the heavy pressure on ur back telling u to do ur very best for the upcoming exams. WOW. come 22 days and this great burden will be lifted!

besides.. the one and only joy one takes pleasure in removing this great burden is the fruits of ur effort. whether ur marks r bad or good.. it doesnt matter as long as u noe u tried ur very best.


















Today was my last General Chemistry class. Gonna miss my lecturer. she's one of the few who actually took interest in us foreigners. and one of the few exceptional lecturers who actually took effort to rmbr ur name too. heck she even bought a book about Malaysia and asked us questions bout M'sia.. and as usual, she tot i was a Malay -.-

and after that my FINAL Latin exam. EVER. managed to bag in an avto5 but its no biggie considering the fact that Yuri isnt as scary as Galena.

C'mon guys.. few more days! jus 3 weeks! persevere....... must persevere.....

28/05 Anatomy Zachoot ( veins )
Russian oral exam

30/05 Histology Zachoot

05/06 Physics Finals

09/06 Biology Finals

С Днём Побѐды!

Happy Victory Day to all Moscovites!

















Ok that happened on Saturday. Havent had the time and mood to blog. Anyway.. Saturday me and my frens met up wit my bro and his frens to see how Moscovites celebrate their Victory Day. Its kinda a big celebration here.. sumtin like our Independence Day.

Met up wit everyone at Spartiv then travelled to Park Pobedi ( Victory Park ).
































Everyone waiting for Kelvin.. he 4got to bring his passport and student card!

















And welcome to Victory Park!















































1941. According to Mama Dolores its the yr the Russians and Germans fought alongside and triumphed. And 1945 the Russians fought against the Germans in Berlin and defeated them Germans, wit a casualty toll of 20 million Russians dead. Tell me if I'm wrong.. lol.














































Enthusiastic Russians..




































This event appears to have a huge press coverage. There're more news vans than these.

And they have an orchestra there!

















Oh.. wats Victory Day without the war veterans?




























































Both civilian and military folks give them war veterans flowers to show their appreciation ( i guess )






















A beautiful Orthodox church..






















The main sight to see at Victory Park: a memorial/pillar with the name of every city in Russia carved on it.

and of course.. the statue on which the logo of Russia is based on..
































and so we left Victory Park..

















only to find out that they shut down all subway trains coming to Victory Park. Must be some security measures.. So unfortunately for us we've to walk and take a bus to Kievskaya.






















Me and Chien at the Arch at Victory Park.

and so we left Victory Park to Kievskaya and then to... ( i 4got the name of the station -.- ) and begin our cruise on the Moscow River.

At the initial part of the cruise there were lots to see.. but towards the end.. it got pretty dull. and most of us fell asleep on the cruise. lol..









































































































Approaching Red Square..

















St. Basil's Cathedral
































The Kremlin Palace

















The buildings frm left to right : Cathedral of the Annunciation, Cathedral of St. Michael the Archangel and Ivan, the Great Belltower.































There're so many cathedrals!!! i dunno the name of this wan..






















A magnificent statue in the middle of the river.

















At the end of our cruise.. you can see Russians chilling by the river..

At night frm our hostel we can see fireworks! so much better than the ones in M'sia..

Oh, and a apartment building got engulfed in flames in Yugo. It was so big we cud see the glow of the fire frm my hostel.

And thats that.

Out.
