Den Haag + Scheveningen Day Trip (8 Apr, Tue) (Part 1)

Day 1 after our exams

We cycled from Delft to Den Haag as Wenjiang and Janan are going to collect their residence permits there. We passed by several nice residences and took several photos along the way.

Interesting residential blocks

Den Haag Holland Spoor station

The rest of us headed to the megastore beside the station to check out the shops inside while the 2 of them went to take their residence permits.

Megastore

There were few people shopping as it was a weekday and we walked around rather fast. There were mainly shops selling electronic goods, supermarkets and clothes shops and we just popped inside a few stores as we did not have anything specific to buy.

We decided to explore the top storey instead.

and the megastore sign

The carpark with very few vehicles

We went inside the megastore and waited for Janan and Wenjiang to come back and meet us. Unfortunately due to a tram disruption, they were delayed and we took this picture below.

Wait until fall asleep

When the 2 of them arrived, we proceeded to our next destination which is Scheveningen beach. We took tram 9 to go to the beach.

Passing by Madurodam

Passing by some big theatre (the reflection of WJ's face is rather funny)

Scheveningen

Flags

Holland Casino

Steigenberger Kurhaus Hotel

I think the white colour and layered architecture gives it a Mediterranean feel

Announcement that the first half of the lecture is cancelled via the real blackboard

PS: If this happened in Singapore, i'm sure there will be many complaints to the academic board

At a gaming event/exhibition in school

Big lecture room + small whiteboard = straining eyes

PS: The lecturer was complaining of the lack of white/blackboard as well.

1st Mar (International Cultural Night)

6 of us went for the International Cultural Night: Bulgaria at Confide organised by several church members and it was nice to know people from other nationalities. There was also a quiz at the end of the dinner but unfortunately our table did not win the contest.

Kena Caught Sleeping

Our lectures are all 2 hour lectures and there is a 15 min break in the middle of the lecture.

Catching a nap during the break, kena caught!

Victim 2 of my snapshot, hehe

Alamak, can tell this one is fake rite? ha....

We all need sleep to keep ourselves awake during the lectures

If the camera wasn't with me, the person who would be caught sleeping the most is definitely me.
