Mops Saloon

Second time having hair cut in UK. This time, I tried Mops, recommanded by Heidi and Shareen.
Veronica helped me make the appointment last Monday. She didnt know we got to book according to the designer and therefore the receptionist decided for me - Sean. I didnt know what is his price, so I called. Dang dang dang - his price of baisc cut is -£45!!! With the first visit £10 off, its still quite costly!!!
Luckily Jess is available and she's cheaper!! £36. After the discount it would be £26.

I didnt have any particular hairstyle I want. Basically is at least shoulder length and fringe, thats all. So Jess told me if it would be shoulder length, the end of the hair that lay on the shoulder will curl out. THen I said above the shoulder will be alright too.
We started with the hair wash. GOSH their hair wash chairs AMAZING!! Its a electronical massaging chair. The only thing about that chair is - NOT ENOUGH POWER LA!!!! But the feeling was still sensational. The roller from the waist up to the back. * Nice *. Especially for people like me who sits all day typing, major back ache.
After the washing, here comes the 'fun' part, cutting off my hair!! The minute she starts cutting, clumps of hairs falling on the floor and I mean ALOT!!!
WHen she finished, I look at the mirror - WHAO!! THe shortest hair I ever had since primary school! haha.
The main prob with my this hairstyle is, the layers cant be seen because I didnt dye or highlight my hair. So what you can see is a head of black hairs!! Thats all!!! Highlighting or dying hair over here is about the same as Malaysia, but I can get a special deal in Msia which is way much cheaper,thats why I hesitated to do any coloring over here.

So.. quite happy with the hairstyle although Brian said me like leng-mui but Dan said I look really woman in it. haha. ANyway I will still be cutting my hair again when i go back to KL. This time with COLOR!!

Oh yah, for the first time, I didnt feeel like buying anything when shopping!!! Haha. AMAZING HUH!!??

I left house 3 minutes later than usual time!! And I nearly miss the bus!!!! Its my first time in UK, running after a BUS!! AH!!! Anyway, manage to get on to the bus * luckly *

Stacey's being transfered to Bridge House's Customer Support due to her wrist pain. More oeration work will only her hand.
Actually, I am quite glad she left. Haha. Not being mean, but sometimes she does distract me from my work!! Hence being behind my target, hence you know - MORE PREASURE!! The sad side will be no one to talk about CRAP i guess. Haha.

Anyway, after work is SHOPPING TIME!! Hahaha. Got my pay TODAY. =)
I just realized that I was overdraft for £5!!! Thats so imposssible!!! I know that account's pretty empty, but not overdraft??!! At that moment, I totally forgotten to ask for the bank statement (not untill now!!) for me to check. Damn, got to go get it tomorrow.
That didnt stop me from my semi- shopping spree! Haha.

I think I should blame WAREHOUSE for being just around the corner!! Because of its convenience, I go there almost everyday. ALMOST, thus spending MORE money. Got 3 stuff from there. THATS ALL.
THen when to Virgin Music Store to have a look. Found C'en's stuff and bought the trilogy of Lord of the Ring extended DVD version. Here comes the problem. We had the Extended version of LOTR VCD!! Maybe I can use the vcd set as present for some exchange gift next time! Haha. Shhh..

I nearly!!! Nearly!!!! Bought 2 posters!!!! But I didnt after discussing with C'en on the phone! Haha. Reason being was - I wont be sticking it on the wall, whats the point of buying it?? but THEN, in the bus only I realized, I can FRAME IT!!! then HANG it!!!! Am I brilliant or what?!! =P
So which 2 posters am I talking about?
1- Batman Returns poster! Its not the cinema promotion one. Its a reallly super super super coooooool one. With the bats and lighthing behind Batman.
2- A SHIT saying for all religion and teaching!! HOW COOL IS THAT!!! Hahha.
Why must they be soo expensive... Haih.. each for £3.99 or 3 for £10. The Batman one was £4.99.
GOt to think about it AGAIN. hmmm..

I just LOVE shopping!! Haha!!! Best medicine for ManDy Lim! * wee *
(Dad and mum is soo going to kill me for that statment!! hahaha)

Union Strike

Biggest stike in England since year 1928 (I think) - UNION STRIKE.
WHo started it? UNISON.
Its a organisation for the public sector. So what are they fighting for this time?
The goverment decided to increase the retirement age from 60 to 65 but the amout of pension will not be increase (I THINK!!). I am not too sure actuallyy!! hahaha!!

The strike in Newcastle wasnt too bad. At least I didnt see people protesting on the street. Metro was not operating, only BUSES. Thats why that day, for the first time, I see new faces in the bus!! haha. All office staffs in coats slacks.

There were rumours Tyne Bridge will be closeD!!! Then the road towards the bridge was totally congested! Honnnnsssss over where and traffic police's on duty. Basically every where was jam! ANd it took me 1 hour to get home, instead of the normal 15 mintues.

Overall, the strike was just mild. No violence, like in Paris, France. haha.
