beloved bel

So it's been more than two weeks since I moved in, and I am lovin' it! I believe my family has been really curious about my new English house as it is so different from my previous flats. This is a proper house with a proper chimney! Also the interior is very country house themed which is beautiful. My housemates (not flatmates now) are as mentioned before, an Irish girl Marcia and an Aussie girl named Rebecca. And the biggest whew I have is that they love clean houses like me! I have a bit of an OCD if you may describe (just a little!) and when I found out they are similar plus they love colour co-ordinating the house, I was going a loud "Hallelujah" within me haha It has been a big step for me this time, to choose to stay with people I don't know. There were some options for me, but this was a big open door which God opened for me and difficult to say no. Firstly it's in such a quaint little street, almost like a village like what Marcia says.

Yes I have moved (again). Michelle who is here to visit jokingly asked me if I am running away from loan sharks hahaha I said my sad goodbye to Marketa after being flatmates for a year and a bit, and this time I will be sharing a 3 bedroom house with two other girls from church, one Australian and one Irish. Should be interesting because I will be living with girls I don't personally know. They are friends of friends. I took over the room from Silvia and she wrote me a nice welcome note what you see above :) This being my third move, I decided to go easy by hiring a mover for 2h and unpacked most of the stuff by mid afternoon.. I think I am getting good at this! More photos to come but wanna share a few with you now coz I know you are curious! ;) Our pretty English house View from my room The street where we live

Happy Mid Autumn Festival! Thank you for the nice postcard, I am savouring this precious mooncake very slowly while it lasts :)

Well, kind of the last day of summer. A lot of people has raved about how beautiful Richmond Park is and since Saturday's weather was a gorgeous high of 26deg, we decided to go before the real autumn weather sets in. As you see, this book One Day by David Nicolls is my current read. Probably also known as "that orange book" which everyone is reading right now, and I jumped on the bandwagon upon knowing it was made into a film starring Anne Hathaway and that got me all curious. "What is the hype surrounding this?" So now I am currently halfway thru', and enjoying every bit of it. I've watched the movie, enjoyed it, no comments on Emma's Yorkshire accent (somehow all the critics' first point is her fake unconvincing accent) and cried during the ending. Gosh it is good. *sniff* Sorry for being a spoiler if you haven't watched or read the book! Anyway back to Richmond Park. It is all the way in West London, a far cry from where I am,
