MC Festival;Lonely but yet lively

Hi Guys,its me again,moon cake festival passed few weeks ago,as when i am in UK,I really forgot what are the festive season dates.But for this moon cake festival,apparently in UK there are no special event done for this day.So our house decided to do a lil bit of steamboat.

In the morning,go buy this buy that,and finally got all the stuffs,the price of the things are not cheap here though,buying stuffs here,don't know you can go to qing ye that buffet steamboat how many times already,haha

Anyway everything was done, and we ate steamboat using rice cooker,that i think most of the international students use here.


A group photo with the house mates,from left,Allen,then me,Candy,Carmen,Michelle,Duncan
We all did had a lil gathering at the house,was warm even though outside was quite cold though.


Ok,thanks for Duncan,he brought this mini moon cake all the way from Hong Kong to this place, was kindda glad and happy when i saw moon cake here. They do sell here at the Chinese shop that owned by Vietnamese.But its extremely expensive....argh


Of course,because Mr Duncan brought it all the way from Hong Kong,we do let him do the opening ceremony.here he cuts the moon cake.It was kindda tasty though,sweet but not too sweet,and it is just the time when you eat this moon cake here,you will feel that,you will got a sudden miss home.Some do say that foreign country's moon is brighter than home country.Extract from a Chinese saying,but in fact its not that true though. When the time, i was eating the moon cake happily,something horrible happens........



OMG...........best before date dd/mm/yy------12-10-08.........................Dang.................I ate a moon cake that was expired for one year......gonna get serious stomachache man...phew,luckily next day nothing happens....

That's all for the moon cake festival....hope you guys had a pleasant moon cake festival too
