London 2

Well I'm gonna write about yesterday. I'll try to remember as much as possible since there were so many things going through. We went to Albert and Victoria's Museum in the morning which is just next to the Natural History Museum. Alot of museum stuffs there. Then we went to the Banqueting House, which is also free. Then we went again to Primark near Bond Street. I'm kinda excited talking bout Primark actually. It's a department store and the things inside are VERY CHEAP, compared to the other stores. For instance, they have thights and socks at 1£, and sunglasses at 2£. Shoes may start at 5£ etc. You get the gist. It's my 2nd visit here during my stay in London and as usual it's completely packed with girls. There's forever a loooooong queue to the fitting room and usually it's better if you can just try the cloths outside right there and then. They limit it to 8 pieces of garment once for the fitting room. Bikinis count as 2 piece. >.< Right, about the bikinis. There's no wonder why all of them loved these 2 piece swimming suits at the beach. Right here the cheapest cost round 5£ a set. That's RM25. RM25. Yes. RM25. I got one for 7£. I know I might not have the opportunity to wear it, but I don't care. It's a bikini top at RM35.

Sadly there was a little incident while I was waiting for the fitting room. A middle aged Spanish women seems to have lost her purse and she kept wailing and screaming "I've lost my purse!Please, did anyone see my purse? Please help..." . Apparently all her passport and phone and everything important are in there. She left it on the floor and then it was missing. Mom said later she saw her crying while filling out a form. That incident kinda shook me. I mean, that could've been me if I wasn't careful enough.

After shopping we were entirely exhausted. We went by a French cafe to have a light dinner, then went to watch the theather The Lion King. It was amazing. the ticket cost 52.50£ each, and its worth every cent. Not penny; worth every cent. If i were to compare with The Phantom of the Opera, they have flashier clothes and Time's running out. GTG

London

I've been in London for quite a few days, and honestly, I've taken in so many sights and sounds of this place that I absolutely have to dump some of the memories out so that I can put in new stuffs. I'll just start with today.

Mom made a breakfast of sausages n fried eggs n boiled carrots, with tea. We planned the underground route an then we're off! Our first destination is the Kensington Palace, which we have to go through Hyde Park to get there. The entrance were free because of the free admission member card Shanna gave me. Thanks so much. We saved like 24£ there. There was an event going on where's they've transformed the place and decorated to the theme of an enchanted castle. They show us different rooms gave us a quest of locating the seven princesses in there. They were actually Mary, Victoria, Margarete, Diana, Anne, and 2 more which i've forgotten. But I got them all correct. Then I had a soft ice cream for 1.70£ and we walked to Kensington High Street tube station. On the way there we passed by a chinese food takeaway. But we had our lunch there anyway. We then took a tube to South kensington then the subway to The Natural History Museum. Very interactive, VERY nice, and its free!

After that it's 6pm and we went back. I have to off now cuz it cost me 50p for half an hour of internet n i've already been here for 1 n a half hour. I didn't even get to mention the dog here at Hyde park. Well next time then. Oh and we went to Whole Foods for meringues n chocs!!

Relationships

There're two plates on the table. One is filled with yummy cheese cakes; the other is soft creme brulee.

I love cheese cakes. I also love creme brulee. I want to cram both of them into my mouth at once.

But here's the catch, I'll choke if I do that, might die from the attempt. If I eat the brulee first, some other girl will claim the cake. If i have the cake first, the brulee might get angry and disappear. (I dunno how to explain this phenomenon but for the purpose of this story it will happen.)

Make up your mind and just pick one? Of course I've thought of that, but It's CHEESE CAKE! OR CREME BRULEE! How can you make decisions like that? It's not like you have to choose between potatoes and lobster. When a waiter comes to you and say "we have two specialty for our main course: grilled lobster or else baked potatoes. Same Price. Which would you prefer?" You can just *snap fingers* and know instantly which you would choose. But when the waiter comes to you and say "we have two selections of desert today, would you like cheese cake or creme brulee?" how on earth are you suppose to just pick one of them? You usually pick both of them! Right??? Both! But then the unkind waiter said "I'm sorry, you only get to choose one"

So now how do you proceed? I want both. BOTH! Don't piss me or I'll ditch both the heavenly desert and get KFC Coleslaw instead. I swear I will.

Can I have both? Someone get me a solution. Right now I'm just letting the waiter stand there waiting for me to make a decision. It wont take long before he leaves without taking my order and I will end up with no deserts. Which is just really really sad.

Merry 2010!!!

It's a new year, and this is gonna be my first post. I just came back from my Hadyai trip in Thailand. Which means after almost half a decade since the day it was issued, I finally got to use my passport for the first time. It was a 3 days 2 nights trip, and it cost RM240, not including the meals and stuffs i bought there. We left UUM on the 30th and came back on th 1st of Jan 2010. I spent the last day of 2009 there, and went to one of their town center to celebrate new year. Before that we went to the water market, Songkhla Aquarium, the mermaid, their market and few more places. I might be posting more about it after I got all the pictures we took there.

Jobstreet.com

Almost all of my colleagues, peers, friends, anyone... anyone that's taking part in practicum aka industrial training aka internship, has make a head start since last month. My progress? None, until yesterday. Stressed of how behind I am, with the fear of being condemned to an uncivilized work environment in god knows where, I decided to register myself in Jobstreet.com and apply a few places that appeals to me. I just copy my resume straight from the uum portal and paste it in Jobstreet. Lets see... name, address, locations.... computer skills?? Flash definitely because that's the reason I am in UUM right now, and I know I'm bound to learn Dreamweaver, photoshop and illustrator in this 6 month before my internship, and finally, the only software I learned this 2 and half years; 3dx Max 2009. Click click click and send. I mean, a little white lie doesn't hurt right. I am not lying about the skills I have, I am just.... writing my resume in advance because I am bound to learn that 3 skills anyway. There. I won't feel as guilty anymore for not doing anything.

Then I learned how wrong I am. The next night, I received a call

"Hi, you applied in jobstreet asking for internship right?"

"Yes"
"It says here you know photoshop andf dreamweaver?"
"................... Yes....." *Fingers crossed
"Can you come for an interview this thursday?"
"I might not make it because I am still in Kedah. Im going back on wed night. May I know what this job is about"
"Well lets say we want you to design a brochure with photoshop, will you be able to do it?"
"......... I guess... Do I have to post it up to the internet?"
"You might need to do some posting up."
"ok..."
"I'll send you an e-mail about the details, this is my number. Tell me bout it ok."
"ok thanks"
"and bring any portfolio if you have"
"sure"

I, again, just dug a hole for me to bury myself into. Please attend my funeral.

Grouping

Have you ever had the experience where you wish that someone will be or will not be in the same group with you? That one person that you wish would be close to you; or even you are so awkward with that you really just pray to god that you can be in any group the lecturer send you to as long as its not his. This is what happened to me. When Mr. Ng was about to divide us into groups, there are these 2 people where 1 I hope will be in the same group with me, and the other I am just awkward with.

I am in group 9. When the latter utter the word "nine", a shiver went up my spine. How can this be. Of the 9 groups over there, what are the chances that out of 45 students, the 2 of us will end up in the same group. It must be the worst day ever. Without wanting to make a scene, I dragged my chair to our group. Surprise, surprise, the former guy is standing right there beside the latter guy.

The world makes sense again. Give and Take; that's what I learned.

Robert Pattinson

Yes! 4 blog posts later It's finally almost time for the class to end. Another short post will fill this remaining 7 minutes perfectly. Lately, like so many other before me, I'm obsessed with this guy:


No, not Robert Pattinson. That's Edward Cullen and I just adore him. Fictional characters are always more perfect, comforting, and safer. Why safer u ask? Well u can't possibly stalk a fictional character and get arrested right.
