While Rosie and Nicholas were away for their music class, The Beatles and the Geordie twins decided to take a walk around Westminster and Piccadilly. As they were walking, several people stopped and stared in amazement at the band. The mop-topped lads themselves were still adjusting to the present times. This was evident when Ringo pointed and said, "Look! There's a giant Ferris wheel. I've never seen one located across Big Ben before!" Scruffy explained, "That's the London Eye. It's actually an observation wheel." Buzzy added, "Riding it allows you to see a panoramic view of the city. Especially when you reach the top. We already rode it once with Rosie and Nicholas." John commented, "That's veddy interesting." "We should ride it with you next time." Said George. "Certainly!" Replied Scruffy. The band was also enthralled by the animated adverts in Piccadilly, and upon entering one of the souvenir shops, were pleasantly surprised when they saw their images and logo in many items. They returned to the university at around the same time Rosie's and Nicholas' class ended, and they met each other again as they arrived back at the dorm. The Beatles and the twins then told them about their enjoyable walk. Rosie commented, "I'm glad you had a great time together." Nicholas asked the band, "Would you like to meet our professor and classmates tomorrow?" Paul replied, "Sure! That would be really nice." "It sure would!" Exclaimed Ringo. This made the friends smile and very excited about introducing the Beatles to their class personally, and the adjustment process for the lads is going quite well.

For most of the duration of 2015, my mother and I went on field trips and attended cultural seminars. In June of this year, we visited Vancouver, Canada. We stayed at the Gage Residences, which is located in the University of British Columbia. We explored the campus and city, visited a friend, and even rode the skytrain right up to the last stop. It was yet another fun trip for us. We also went back to Cebu in September. As a pre-birthday treat, my mother bought me tickets to see Rick Astley in concert when he visited my country. He's my favorite singer from the 80's. We had a blast during the concert, and my mother would scream, "Go Rick!" as he goofed around and joked onstage. This concert made her reminisce about her youth, too. After the concert, we traveled back to Singapore on my birthday, where she attended a Teaching of English as a Second Language seminar. We also continued our celebration there.
