Hello London

Here I am in London and the current time is 5+ am in the morning. The weather is cold, but not terribly cold at roughly 5 degrees at the moment. The plane ride to London was long (14h) but it was made up by the amount of food they attempted to feed me and the interesting chats I had with the guy next to me. The person is currently pursuing his masters in a university in Edinburgh and his research topic was on Sanskrit and Hindi. He said that he is thinking of doing his thesis on the translation of some Sanskrit text. Interestingly, his name and my name are very similar - he said that his name means exactly the same as mine except that his is in Sanskrit.

Huarry for last minute packing as I realised that I left my towel in Singapore. Thankfully, Rifdi has a spare towel. Rifdi was telling me about the free shipping for books bought from amazon and now I am hooked on the idea of getting cheap amazon books - which is something that I can never do in Singapore. So what I need to do now is to bug him when he wakes up to help me purchase the books and hopefully the books will arrive before I leave London. This really sounds like a great plan.
