I am in Hull now since yesterday,a three hours of train journey.
My "landlord" is very kind, he picked me up from train station and fetch me to Boots store.
The first thing i saw on my left hand side after came out from the train station is a Big shopping centre -St.Stephens, you can find those normal England's shops as you would find in other places just that the shops here are much bigger and newer!
As far as i know now, Hull has three shopping centre, which is the St.Stephens, Prospect Centre and Princess Quay Centre. There is a few cafes along the "Monument Bridge" right beside the Princess Quay Centre. Walk pass Princess Quay Centre, go along the path, you will go to "Old Market Town" which reminds me of the street in Nottingham where superdrug located.Am i hinting that Nottingham is old? I think Hull is better than Nottingham in term of their transport services. I say this because you can find train, bus and coaches in Hull Paragon Interchange, and the St.Stephens is just right beside the Hull Paragon Interchange.
Another great news is my volunteer work place-Hull and East Yorkshire Hospital is located about 3 mins walk from the Hull Paragon Interchange, and so as the Boots store that i am going to work in 1 week time.All shopping centres are walking distance away from each other. I said good news because it's easier for me to HUNT when summer sales come!
I went to the Boots store in Prospect Centre to get them stamp on my Uk visa and verify it. Sadly there is no pharmacist there, only those locum, the pharmacist has left( i mean there is no pharmacist in the store) I wonder why? But by the time i start working there will be a pharmacist !The healthcare team manager sounds nice, her name is Clare, but i will hold my comments first, as they always nice but you don't know what are they thinking actually. This is what i learnt from Cardiff Store, the manager will never happy to see us free. Between, this store is much smaller than Cardiff one, it reminds me of Boots store in Cardiff, because it is in a shopping centre too.
Now is about my new accommodation, first impression, I love the house because it's a modern house compared with what i have in Nottingham. But, soon after i settled my things and return to this house again, i realised that the toilet and kitchen are A BIT dirty, guy's house , i can't expect much, can I? But his sister is staying here too. And, the sister has rabbit as her pet--called Chocolate!haha..I actually found the conversation between the sister and brother amusing,
S:"Choc looks moody."
Me:"why?"
S:"because he(choc) has been alone at home, he feels lonely"
"That's why i on the TV"
B:"Does he watch TV?"
S:"Yes!"
Me:*Laughing*
They asked me whether i like animals, i said yes but i also say that i scare of dogs, what a contraversy answer!
And, i have no pillows and blanket here, ytd night i thought i can survive without blanket since it's summer now, but, still i have to squeeze into the duvet cover that i brought from Nott in the middle of the night. I didn't get good sleep actually, i can hear them talking.
I have to wash the toilet later , even though i feel tired now after carrying five bags of tesco things and Primark Pillows!Because i just cannot stand it anymore, i scare of stepping into the toilet, thank God that jason likes clean environment.
Haih, i guess biscuits and hot chocolate will be my dinner later. A lot of hard work to do here, but, I will never afraid of them. I am strong!!! Agree??
