Edinburgh One Day Tour

Some grass, trees near the monument



Edinburgh Castle (Took this picture using phone =P)



Myself, after the trip, exhausted...excuse the backdrop

Just another boring update

Just made myself some miso soup. It's nice to drink soup again. Afterall, it's been two months since I last had it.

I have lost concentration on reading some of the past lectures again.
I'm constantly thinking of the trips in december. And now I'm planning another trip 2 days after returning from edinburgh.I wanna go Bath. Well the main tourism spot is stonehenge. I guess I will go there this december just to check it out. I was reading the website about Bath and it's actually warmer than most of the places in UK. Well, that's good to know because I think winter in UK is quite depressing. Maybe because it has those thermae spas? Whatever it is, this place is definitely a must go.

I think I really need to bring myself together and start reading again tonight. Well I have only one more lecture to go and I'm done reading all the past lectures (4 weeks). I still need to work on my research and the assignments. School is not fun but it definitely gives me the leeway to map my travel plan. hehe..

Oh ya besides Miso, I had some of the british fishballs that I bought from Marks and Spencer. I would say the texture is more filling if wanna compare to chinese fishballs. Well, it's like "crab cakes" I think.

I'm looking at the clouds again. They are moving really fast. One week is almost gone. Gotta go back to school on monday. I'm not happy nor I'm sad.

Ok, reading time!

Dodging bullets

I have so much to say yet so little to type....haih..

It's just some personal problem which I don't want to reveal here. It's been bothering me for many many years and I don't think I'm prepared to face it YET. Talk about trying to shadow reality...so silly right?Someday someday..maybe?

What the TOOT

Kaput laptop =(

sigh..

Million Dollar Baby

Too violent for me...

but clint eastwood, morgan freeman and hillary swank, thumbs up for their performance!

8 STARS OUT OF 10

CRAPPPPP

Crap! I typed a long post but blogger succumbed to some sort of internal illness and did not upload my post!GRRRRRRRRRRRR DIE DIE DIE!

I'm feeling blank now. *LOOKING AT THE CEILING*

Byebye.

2006 is coming to an end..........

I'm officially getting my one week break. Hmmm, what can I do in this short one week?

Study? Yeah, I have tons of papers flying inside my room and books collecting dust waiting to give me asthma.

Travel? Well, not to the extreme of hopping all across europe YET. hehe...Planning to go edinburgh next week though. So that's something to look forward to.

Eat? You guys know what, today I'm so free and marinated some lamb chop. Eating alone isn't that nice though.

Cleaning? We always procrastinate when it comes to cleaning right? So I'll wait. hehe

Decorate? I'm planning to decorate my dull room a little bit this week. Probably a nice love shaped rug would be nice to add a little spice to it. I can just sit on the floor and rub my toes or something. (sorry a bit yarky)

I think my week is mostly occupied with studying and doing a little bit of upgrading and improvement here and there.

I can't wait to summarize my final trip to europe next monday and then get all the accommodations and tickets ready. =) We are also going to vegas again for the one millionth time. I even said today I wanna go there at least once a year! No, it's not about gambling! It's about the carefree atmosphere and the FOOOODDDDDD! Wynn is totally awesome! The buffet is splendid! Anybody going there should definitely give it a try. I give it a 10 out of 10!

OKee gotta run now!

Window

I'm waiting to go for my HR class right now. Sometimes I think the clock ticks really slow when you are waiting for something. Wonder why? Maybe it's not the clock that sits on the table but the clock that's inside our head?

The weather is really bad. It's drizzling and at the same time, the black clouds are overtaking mr.sunshine. It makes me feel gloomy as well. I used to love gloomy weather. haha. It's the best weather to fall asleep on your comfortable bed with your dirty old blankets.

My room faces good view of the millenium bridge and at night, you can see the night lights of the city. It's pretty cool but it's just not as cool as my own home of course. Oh, besides, I can also see the baltic flour mills from my window. I wonder if they spy on me or something. hahaha...

Okay I think it's about time I wrap it up and head to class.

Late!

Mission Possible

Completed another important mission today! Ta dah! I went to see my lecturer to talk about dissertation!

Since when Im so hardworking...

Tonight I'm going to the library to look at some old copies to give myself a better idea.

I just had roast chicken and damn sleepy right now...

tata

Sleepless in Newcastle

It's getting cold over here.

Can't wait for my trips in Dcember.

I'm not able to sleep at night.

I can finally start doing my dissertation.

Feeling all stressful because of insufficient rest.

I'm trying to drain up my energy so that sleeping won't be too big of a problem tonight.

Nite nite everyone ;)

Halloween coming up!

Small plane crashed into building

I was quite shocked yesterday as I thought 9/11 repeated itself. Well "fortunately" ( I do feel sorry for the family of the people who died in the crash) it was just a small plane that struck a building in New York. I do not wish to see such thing happening again as it really creates a lot of fear.

WORLD PEACE EVERYONE!=)

Another boring post

I didn't realize my blog is up for a year already...

so here you go, happy anniversary BLOG duh!

Sorry ya everyone, this blog is mainly for me to crap...hehe

Whats going on today?

-Lost my key to my room F*CK

-Had class from 10am to 6pm Another F*CK

-Had to walk back to school to retrieve my lost and found key F*CK

-I think I was so lost in my class today F*CK

Oh God, please forgive me for being so very F*CKing rude with all the vulgarities.

You know, while I'm away, my baby bought me whole bunch of stuff because I cannot stop complaining that I'm bored. He bought me Nintendo DS (ok im not really a big game person except for age of empire and civilization but SUPER MARIO, KING KONG??umm =P). Thanks honey for being so nice to me.

He bought me NINTENDOGS. I haven't seen it yet but I think it should be quite nice to play with an electronic dog when you can't have a real one.



He said I'm able to feed it,play with it,train it and all the things a real dog owner would do. Well I saw it quite some time ago but never gave it a second thought.
Maybe it's fun. Who knows.

And then my new panasonic digital camera. I think I'm quite weird because I'm too afraid to carry any thing that's over $200 with me. I always have this fear or losing it and being really upset about it later on. Am I normal? I'm worried I might lose this camera =( I'm a big fan of panasonic digital camera because of its image stabilizer. You know how blurry a photo can be when you shake even for a little bit.

I'm glad Tuesday is over because wednesday I only have one class and I don't have to go to school on Thursday. So that's my bonus day and my day to catch up with homework, cleaning, laundry and all the shit that I procrastinated of doing.

Okay gtg now...*sip tea*

FOOD and some updates

I'm so nice to myself lately that I've been making good food for lunch. For example, today I made two angus beef quarterpounders with egg. It was so yummy!

I lost quite a bit of weight staying here. I guess around 5-6lbs at least. It's nice seeing myself shrinking =P but in a way, I felt terrible because I'm not treating myself to nutrional meals. Sometimes I would go without food and sometimes I would just have some tea or something. Gosh! I love to cook but as previously mentioned, the kitchen has a bit of a problem. I saw three flies happily savouring on the bananas today. *yuck*

I bought whole bunch of stuff from www.asda.co.uk and that's because I can get free shipping for orders over 50 pounds. So I bought 59 pounds of stuff and that will last me more than a mth.=P I don't think it's worth carrying whole bunch of groceries walking 30 minutes and coming home with your two legs swollen like you are in your trimester. I'm out of everything and that includes toilet rolls, oil, meat, veggies. All that's left in my space is just a pack of celery and some carrots.

Class was so freaking boring today especially marketing research! Our lecturer was out of town and she got a librarian to replace her???? WTF! He didn't even know how to teach even though she provided him with the slides. He was definitely wasting my time. All he taught us was how to use the electronic library. HAHA...

OK thats it...i've found a topic for my dissertation. I'm sure it's going to be a blast!

LUV YA ALL! ODIE I STILL MISS YOU A LOT :(

My lunch

I just made pesto with chinese noodle.

How did it taste?

It tasted wrong lor what else!

Ain't no trust in this world

I'm terribly exhausted right now. Slowly piece by piece I'm trying to patch myself back to reality.

I'm in disbelief and shock.

Why it is so difficult trying to trust someone?

My Flat

My first week of school wasn't really that bad. I'm just so free! My timetable has a lot of empty slots. I need to start being creative and fill in the slots.

So far, the best and most interesting subject is marketing research. Partly due to the fact that the lecturer is very motivated and informative. I bought my printer yesterday and whoa, I had to carry that monstrous 8kgs printer from city center back to my room. My arms were shaking terribly when I finally reached my room. I could not even hold the chopsticks. Man, I feel for those people with parkinson. It's really disturbing not being able to control yourself. Simple task becomes a chore.

I'm having problem with my flatmates. Apparently, someone left the cooker on and it did not happen for one time, but TWICE! The kitchen is also a mess right now and they left the cookie jar, the mooncake on the countertop, whilst whole bunch of flies feasting on the food! It's really gross! I wonder if they ate the food. They really need to go for some cleanliness bootcamp. It's simply unacceptable. We are talking about some adults here not some 3 yr old kids. They should be really ashamed of themselves. Another annoyance is that two of them are chain smokers. The management came up to install the restrictor for the window the other day and it's been chaos ever since. They continued to smoke but the window opening was restricted and that triggered the fire alarm. I'm going to just point fingers at them if management decides to give us a warning. Well I won't hold responsibility for something that does not concern my tenure here. It's simply difficult living with people that are not on the same line. I have stopped using the kitchen at night to give them the chance to mess it up.

I need to catch up on sleeping. I'm yawning continuously.

Good night everyone.

A letter to my Odie

Odie, where are you now? Are you happy where you are? I just spoke to your daddy on the phone. He mentioned that he left a lot of food for you. Cookies,madeleine,biscotti,those buns from your grandpa and lots more!WOW, what a lucky dog! =) But please behave ya my son. Eating too much junk isn't really that good for your teeth and for your health. You know when you were little, you hated your food. Mommy had to jump up and down, made lots of funny faces and noises, had to feed you like a monkey and you still never wanted to eat your food voluntarily. Sigh, mommy was really mad. Did you know that? It's a chore feeding you back then. But mommy never loved you less.

Two years went by, you celebrated your 2nd birthday. Mommy witnessed something different in you. You were more mature. You ate your food like a hungry wolf each day. Must be the hormone kicking in. Hehe. Mommy was very glad. But you were still acting like a kiddo! You stopped chewing your daddy's shoes but you dragged mommy wherever we went! I could only see the leash but not you! You were already 2 miles ahead of me! Daddy asked mommy when can we let you offleash. Mommy said "NEVER"! That's because mommy was afraid, you might run away. You made your 'gu jeh" tripped and fell. You made mommy crazy trying to chase after you. But odie, mommy never loved you less.

Third birthday. You ate your birthday cake. You ran around the table, waiting to blow the candles. It was as if you knew the cake was for you and you were the star of the day. Mommy said cake was bad for you but we still gave it to you anyway. Sigh, who wouldn't want to spoil you my dear. =) You were bigger and your coat was really beautiful. I'm a proud mommy. Everybody complimented how beautiful you were. I guess maybe that's why you were quite a snob. haha..but mommy never loved you less.

Odie, your fourth birthday. You were a mature dog, we thought. We went hiking together. You ran like a wild rooster!!You ran up and down the hill! Mommy couldn't help shouting at you for being naughty. You were supposed to show and guide mommy the path but you went berserk like a crazy dog! Mommy remembered the flea bites from hiking. Mommy had to bring you to the clinic the next day. We went to Tahoe. You loved the snow so much! You ran like a mad cow this time. Gosh! You chased after mommy that day. haha...daddy still has the clips from that day. =) Mommy threw snow at you but you didn't know how to duck. =P
You ate the snow. Daddy said no. Mommy said yes. You ate a lot that day. I bet your stomach must have felt uncomfortable. You slept with mommy and daddy in the hotel that night. You snored and you woke mommy up. It's okay son, mommy never loved you less.

Fifth birthday. Sadness was surrounding us. You were not well my dear. Your rear leg wasn't co-operating with your right. You had a tumor in there. Mommy and daddy brought you to sausalito. You acted like your usual self. You tried to catch the wave!! Mommy snapped a lot of pictures. =) Mommy knew, your fifth might be your last. Never thought our days together would end so soon my son. Mommy knew you were in pain. Yet, you were strong and ready to fight it! Mommy was so proud of you. Mommy and daddy would bring you to the park everyday, remember? You loved to eat the grass. Mommy started naming you "cow". You still ran despite the tumor restricting your movement. Son, tennis ball was your life right? You would do anything for it. =)
Daddy named you charlie chaplin. haha, and let's not tell people why. Mommy never loved you less.

Now that you are gone, mommy wept. Mommy never wept so much in her life. I'm sorry my son. Mommy could not be with you to share your agony and pain. Odie, my heart beats for you now. Every single heartbeat. Each day, mommy will look at some old pictures of you. Mommy can't stop smiling. You brought a lot of joy to mommy's life. You were such a good son. Only you have the power to make mommy smile and cry. We will see each other again someday. Mommy will never love you less.

My first f* day in school

I intended to post today but a conversation with my hon made me such a forgetful loser. I totally ignored the computer screen in front of me. So I'm back wanting to introduce my first day of class to the world. Well, too bad, it sux. Yup, I woke up religiously at 7.30am to prepare my breakfast and prepare myself for my class at 9am. Eve and I walked together to school today with the fog growing thicker and thicker, and we bitch-ed happily for the entire 20 minutes journey to our faculty.

Whole bunch of people were waiting in front of class NB056 when we arrived around 8.50am. Good timing! 10 minutes to ambiguously glare and stare at others from the NB056 bunch. 9.15am, still waiting outside the class, with the crowd decreasing in size. Some were outside huffing and poofing. Smoking la! Aiyo not bring down the school.

9.30am, still in front of the class. Dumbfounded. Started talking to the guy standing next to me. He's Michael from Denmark. Wanted to make sure I'm not stupid enough to be standing in front of the wrong place. No, that's the right class. Waves of people started walking in and out of the faculty. There we were standing in front of the class like the guards from buckingham.

9.50am, haha, class is about to end in another 40 minutes. Still there waiting! I'm so freaking patient I tell ya. Who would wanna stand one hour in front of an empty class???KNN!

Well.....as my patience was running a bit low, there was this lady, she introduced herself as Claire. Okay so I was thinking, maybe we all should really beat the crap out of her if we found out she's the teacher and she's late!Turned out she's just some sort of timetable lady.=P So the usual crap, oh wrong timetable,just for this one week, don't worry, will get better next week.................and the excuses went on and on...She took us into the classroom, finally my ass got some rest. You know, how heavy ass can be. Then a lady with heavy heavy CHINESE accent came in. Her name is ROSE. hahaha Reminded me of the old ancient chinese movie, with the rose rose song. Okay, back to Ms.Rose. She's going to be our teacher for that one particular subject. She further introduced herself as a really really really really EXPERIENCED marketing manager and some other shit. She dwindled and dwindled. I was about to tell her "hey you are here for job interview?" She said "goodbye".=P

So we got out of the class around 11am. No more class, not until 12. So one hour of free time. So what do we students love to do during such short break? LADIES!! yeah, we were whoring the ladies room. It wasn't that nice actually. You won't want to see it.

Went to the next class and it was pretty decent.

What a good first day. Came back to my room and started jamming some music and made myself some freaking salty noodles.Yuck. Still in the fridge if anyone wants.

To be con'd..
