The days passed

Unfortunately, we didn't get to watch Les Miz because the available tickets were either too expensive or restricted in view. We ended up watching X Men 3: The Last Stand. It's a safe movie. Safe because there isn't anything special about it, but is neither crap enough to be missed indefinitely. There were a number of sub plots that could have been developed better. And Famke Janssen is usually gorgeous, but she looked kinda haggard in X3.

I was in Epsom on Saturday. Epsom is in Surrey, and is close by to Kent I think. It's not as eye pleasing as Croydon. But Epsom College, where Eugene did his A Levels, is lengths above CTC in terms of size. In CTC everything was under one roof: classrooms, refectory, common room, administrative offices; the exception being the new wing housing the library and the computer labs, which were built in my year. We didn't even have sporting facilities and had to rely on the public park and the sports club to host our activities. But in Epsom College there are individual buildings for each subject. They've got separate grounds for footie, cricket, tennis, rugby, etc... and a gym too! I suppose it comes with being a proper English boarding school.

We went to New Malden after Epsom to have dinner in this Korean restaurant. The food was really nice. I didn't quite take Eugene seriously when he said New Malden is pretty much Korea Town... but it is! There are many Korean shops on the high street, even a little Korean shopping plaza, and you can't miss all the Korean people strolling about the area.

I'm thinking of changing my flight to 4 June to coincide with June's. So I have a travel buddy :)
