UK here I come

time : 7.53 pm
activity : doing my laundry =.=''

in just about 11 hours i'd be hopping on my plane to Stansted London, i have a feeling it'll be darn more than 11 hours though.. Evidence - Jonathan, Ajay n Grace's flights back home got delayed, in a very majorly way! n i'm so sleepy right now! hafta leave to airport at 3.30am.. n i havent packed, which means i cant sleep tonite, i think! pfft...

spent some time wif Tong, Bern, Fiona, YY, Elaine, Kristina and Bern's fren Kah Hee from Edinburgh today. one thing's thats famous for in Ireland is definitely the stout - Guiness. so we went there, to the very much overly publicised Guiness Store House somewhere in Dublin 8. found my own way there, to my own surprise - hey! looks like i'm quite good in directions weih .. lol! walked myself cos i wanted to get down at Stephens Green which is much nearer n i was kinda craving for bagels too .. the sausage eggworks bagel - YUM YUM !! hot, cheezy, sausagey, CHEEZY bagel. n the bagel factory was smacked right at Stephens Green.

oh well, the storehouse was okay. i mean, u noe me, i just dont read those steps one by one to noe how d stout is brewed n all.. even if i do read it, the moment i step out of the storehouse i'll completely forget all about it wont i ? so as usual, i just move along, taking all d pics. rather dark in there, so d photos turn out quite disappointingly.. cos i just refused to turn on the flash. ah, now that i thought of it, should haf switch it to night scene instead.. or maybe a better solution is IF ONLY i haf an SLR .. it would be perfect yo!

anyways, cant wait to get to London especially for Boxing Day. 've been surpressing my dire need to shop n BUY, yes, BUY... all because everyone says everything on Boxing Day is utterly cheap. n nowadays, am so LAZY to go shopping n walk, online does all the job, like Tesco n *ahem* ESPRIT. i have the European member card too so i was actually entitled to an extra 20% discount for their whole range... on top of their already on sale items so u could only imagine how affordable the stuffs could get. n i just couldnt stop spending time in their website browsing thru their line of apparels n boots, yes, boots, wanted to get this feminine boots wif heels n bow n all, so NICE - but think and consider too LONG, the size is now out of order. after that, regret for 10 nites n 10 days, thought of buying my second best choice - but think n think again, n tonite's d last nite to get d extra 20%. ah! wat the hell.. forget it. i cant even get them delivered anyways. all because Republic of Ireland is so segregated from the UK, they wont send it to ROI. like wats d difference if they travel an extra 1 n 1/2 hours since they do deliver to Northern Ireland anyways? stupid english people!

kinda missing my friends here abit - Grace n Christine n Ajay too. wont see them for bout a month.. 2 days ago, had a lil girly girl date wif Grace : shopping at Dundrum n then PS I Love You movie. it was sumwhat hillarious at some parts, only foreigners in Ireland might understand like they way they pronounce some very Irish kinda words, and there was a part that was SO stupid where Hillary Swank tried to cry but NO tears came out so it was only her wailings, kinda reminds me of Yoyo Mong from TVB or some other TVB ppl who sumtimes tries so hard to cry but nothing comes out. ahh.. n then of course, there are some sad sad parts and oh well, we shed some tears too in the cinema.. lol ! not to mention, we actually GOT LOST in d cinema. we dint noe that the entrance was d exit too so we kinda went into a door which couldnt be open on the other side- oh my god, so we were both stuck there forcing the door open which was utterly impossible.. until one of those i dunno wat u call them - usherer - i think, heard us pulling the door n opened it from the other side. n also when i got up from my seat, the dusts that passes thru the projector lights actually made a rather picturesque view like moving stars in the sky! not bad, not bad!

okay, this laundrette is actually getting quite scary - the door is swinging open n close. Shite, i wann aget out from here. damn clothes, taking so long!

Wen yen!!!! feli & i were glad u came over and we did our lil cgl reunion in London.... UK edition =)

Fireworks whole pre & post fun was awesome and i think being together tru d whole experience is the best part of all, curse the smokes....

Thx for hinting n giving opportunities for ahem and i to get close.... appreciate that =) But right now, stuff has gone back to normal and the whole thing felt like 2 diff ppl, u noe, like it was a diff guy.

If u have watched Love Actually, there's a part where this guy went up to his best friend's wife (keira knightley) and confessed his love, and she ran and gave him a peck. He told himself, that was good enough seeming the circumstances. Yup enough. SO now i'm gonna say... That was good enough. Smiling at the short memories...

Anyway.... we'll keep in touch soon and hopefully i'll come over to dublin sometime soon =)

Muakxxx love ya gurl
