Life in Essex thru my lens

7:47 am - Parteeeeee!!!!!

So this is it! me life in Colchester has ended. It has been absolutely brilliant. What really made it special were me mates there - esp those who stayed together wif me in Flat 11. We had some wonderful times together.

So i'll sign off from this blog wif collages of the parties we had - yes, those were some of the best times in my life!


Left: October 2005. Our first flat party - simple and fun. We ordered take away and watched a movie together
Right: November 2005. This time, we decided to cook together - Pizza nite!


Left: Our next get-together was a farewell for Aliz & Alberto in March 2006. We went to an Indian restaurant for dinner and then adjourned back for drinks and ice cream
Right: In May 2006, we celebrated the May babies by having a sushi dinner.


Left: In June 2006, we celebrated Di's birthday and also the end of our exams. We had mexican fajitas and pina-colada for dessert.
Right: Our farewell meal - Sept 2006. We went to the Playhouse in town since most of us were still busy wif our dissertations and had no time to cook.


Those of us still around had another farewell party sometime mid-September - a celebration of dissertations handed up and a goodbye to our Flat 11 as we had to move out. It was a wonderful meal - all of us cooked up something - and we had a crazy time after the meal.


Left: End Sept 2006. This was a farewell for me - i was going off to Wales for a holiday and thereafter, moving to London.
Right: Early November 2006. This was a farewell for Isabella who was returning to China


End November 2006. This? I just wanted to have a party and we got some snacks and drinks! :-)

Miss you guys!
