Demonstration at Trafalgar!






I joined in the students' demonstration on 5 Nov! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! technically, i didn't really participate in it actively like all the screaming and yelling and everything but i was in the middle of it! haha! students from universites and unions all around congregated at trafalgar square after a march from UCL and it lasted all morning and afternoon. So when they came down to trafalgar square which was the final destination, i raced down to see it! haha! for a poor singaporean who has never seen a demonstration, much less participate in it, this was really a cool first! the students were protesting against blair for lifting the cap on the 3000 pounds tuition fees cos too many students were falling into debt from paying their fees. hmm.. what about us overseas students.. we pay almost 4 times of what the local government subsidised students pay!!! and i met huijie who was dressed in a full purple outfit. she looked really nice and dolled up! as compared to me.. i love trampy clothes!
