Reach London airport at 6am morning. Collect Luggage and wait for the coach bus. Got some mistake on the list of Hostel, making me the only one with 2 hostel to stay. Super confusing!!! Sort it out after reaching the Hostel. They got several hostel. Liberty, Victoria, Charlotte, Brahmall, Trigon, and etc. I live in Liberty with all the other Construction Management students. Before reaching the Hostel, stop at highway restplace to get some eat. The prices struck me. All the sandwiches were at least 1.5pounds. Its so expensive. Later reach Sheffield after 4 hours of bus, start to find hostel. Keep round round in the area till we find it. Get to our rooms. Then go out with friends to some small hypermarket for grocery. Today just to survey the prices. And the hypermarket need to use our own plastic bags. Later went to Food Stop Restaurant eat fried chicken and other food. Come back home, lay on bed and fall asleep from 7pm to midnight 3am......force my self to slp again as nobody was awake.

Today wake up very early, nothing to do. Pack up all my luggage and clean my room. Later 9am meet Yew Heng, our new come housemate. We all had our breakfast. I didnt have anything to eat as i didnt bring any food from Msia, so just eat the break bought from highway restplace. Just to ease the hunger in my stomach. Later 11am went to Netto grocery store to get all the foods. Today they cook Lunch, Cecilia a friend of Yew Heng helped come and cook and lunch together. The stoves uses electric and not gas. Super slow and the equipment was so small its hard to even fried an egg. But just bare with it as its super expensive to buy big ones. haha. We ate our lunch at 4pm after all the first time experience using electric stoves......super hungry. Ate two plate of rice. After lunch, just stay in room. Later 5pm take cable for internet.
