Rainbow tale~

Hey Terence,

Found the double rainbow picture!
There really are 2 pots of gold, and more than 1 leprechaun exist in this world!



Date: somewhere Apr 2005
Time: during day time raining
Photos Taken From: some digital camera back then. Definately not a DSLR camera~ (i don't remember ever operate one)
Venue: In my room. a place called Harcourt house, Tapton Hill, Sheffield

introduction to Tapton Hill:



Date: somewhere June 2005
Time: 3.25 pm
Photos Taken From: same as above. A home use digital camera
Venue:
- Tip of Tapton Hill, Sheffield
- Also known as Nicole's usual place~ stress free place~
- Situated around 2.5 km from university, 1.5 km from that house staying in
- A place where senior residents stay, walk the dog, a little children playground around having the best view of Sheffield + a conventional swing tied to an old big tree(swinging here means looking adventurous enough as if you're being thrown down the hill)

Discovery:
- A friend excitingly brought me up this hill on my 20th birthday to challenge me to take a ride on the swing. Thanks to her every since that day whenever I went missing that's the place anyone who's close enough to me would know I will be there

Wiki facts:
- Sheffield is the formal city of steel
- A place you will never get lost in the city. A common phrase while I am helping with Uni student council guiding fresh student from the train station:'See that tram line infront of you? yup. Just follow that it will lead you to uni. You will never miss that. If you want to come back to city center for shopping, just follow the tram line again. It's that easy. (cos it's a single track tramline...)
- After living here for a several years, you will realise you can climb the stairs with ease. And you don't gasp as heavily as you do before staying in Sheffield. Thanks to the hilly geographic structure, you will be trained. And trained to walk really fast(because the locals walking pace are really - fast)
- Never as crowded as London, but you can get most essential from this place. And the bus drivers are ever friendly and kind where some of them make little chat with you
- People here do call you 'duck' or 'flower'. But it is the same meaning as 'love'. And they call will call your husband/wife 'love' too. But in fact it's the first time they have ever meet each other.
- Uni of Sheffield have a very wide range of volunteering service for uni students to participate. So wide that you couldn't reject some like: 'volunteer to walk people's dog'

Hey Terence,
haha... actually Sheffield is a place always raining, so it is not rare to see a rainbow there. In a month time one could probably see 3-4 times of rainbow, if he observe carefully.
Probably in Malaysia too, after rain. Just that sometimes we are too busy(in the factory all day from sunrise till sunset), it becomes hard for us to see even if a double rainbows appear isn't it?

Its really really really rare for me to see rainbows over here.. and even if there are any, they are usually very faint and diminished..
