St. James Park

Today I had a really bad day at work. My input was just really bad, although Stacy was on leave; my output is still so bad… ><’ ///

When I left the office, Dan called and told me that he’s at the lobby waiting for me… That reminds me of Heidi who is looking for a job at my office… Haha.. Right now, every Northumbria graduate are seeking for jobs… haha… cause what they have right now is just TIME… haha…
Too bad PPA just recruited a new batch of employees… so looked like Heidi got to wait….
The minute I got down to the lobby, I saw Dan, Tommy & Dim Sum sitting there… haha… like refugees… haha… Then came Adrian, Heidi & Yi Mei walking out from the lift.

After some walking distance, we came to this shop which sells cool hip hop kind of clothing & the price is not cheap… haha… Dan bought himself a Oakley red tee which cost 20 pound …ouch.. that hurts… I saw this slipper which I dead love it… & its 40 pound… I think that’s a bit too expensive for a slipper. It made of leather I think… cant stop thinking of it right now…
We then decided to go for a movie. Its between Star Wars or Kingdom of Heaven. Guess what, we ended watching nothing… This always happen when a group of friends go for movies… Couldn’t decide on which movie to watch… haha… so we then went to St. James Park…

Man… the park is like sooo nice… There is this man made pond, where they got really beautiful swan… & I mean really big white swans… Snap a few photos using Tommy’s cam. There were 2 families there. One is the big white swan, while another one is duck family…
The swan was just a protective dad, he chase away all the duck & duckling who wasn’t disturbing him & his little swans [what’s that called??].
He basically want to keep the whole pond for him & his family. He was just busy chasing away other swans too…
Swans are really strong & powerful birds. When he flip his wing, we can hear the sound of it, meters away not to mention. He skidded on the water while chasing others, and break on the water… cool man… really is Heng Gong Sui Seong Piew ah… He looks so like walking on the water when he chased other swans…

Then came the BEST part of the day… Dan and others joined a bunch of Chinese & black for basketball. Of course I won’t join… haha… everyone knows that I am afraid of BALLS…haha… so I just sat in the ring with Heidi and chat about shopping, work… etc… then came a really cute brit playing tennis next door… He is SOOOO CUTE…. Hahaha… I kept on peeking at him… haha… wanted to snap a pic of him… but my stupid phone will have this sound CHIK CHAK … damn loud when I am taking a pic… wont want him to know right… hai seh… I got a feeling that he looked at me too… haha…I HOPE… haha…

After about an hour, Brian called and said he was on the way here with Veronica, Sean & Ziv of course… He joined them then Veronica & I took Ziv for a walk…
When we came back, in the court, came a new dude with cap… the minute he remove his cap I was just …. Hahaha…. HE is SOOO CUTE too. He has blue eyes, with a little bit of Asian look & guai lou look… His body is just FIT… and I mean FIT. Can see from his arms, muscler & firm… haha… He is a mix, mum’s a Chinese & dad’s a British…. Haha… he is from London… dunno why he is here thou… haha…
Dan talked to him & wanted to get me into the chat, but too bad I was on my way home with Brian… Haiseh… shouldn’t have followed Brian’s car ah!!!!! Wasted my chance of chatting with him….

Hopefully I will be going to St James Park again tomorrow… hahaha…. N of course the Mix dude & brit dude must be there… haha…

Cute Driver ^ ^

Today’s weather was just horrible. It rained non-stop… and I mean RAIN… okay, maybe not RAIN… but the drops weren’t small… luckily Sean [I think] left an umbrella before leaving for Malaysia…. if not I would be dead wet when I arrived office.

I clocked in at 7.13am… hehehe… So happy for that because that means I can leave earlier = ).
After work, I went to Safeway to buy some grocery or should I say my snacks… haha… Bought Cadbury Mousse * yummy * & Flakes cereal. Got some explaining to do about the flakes cereal… I bought a 100% wheat cereal = (… I bought that mistakenly… thought it’s like the same as what I bought last time… It’s just tasteless. As usual I guess, healthy food always taste YUKKY… that’s why I need a sweet cereal to mix with the HEALTHY cereal…
Then bought a twin pack Thin Turkey Ham, cheese & bun to make my next day’s lunch.

When I walked out from Safeway, the rain had stopped and only small rain drops still dropping from the sky… After 10 minutes of waiting, here came NO.1 bus. Guess who’s driving the bus? Hahaha… It’s the CUTE driver. Not the Mr. Oakley, but the cute smart one… haha… as I had 2 big heavy bags of food on both of my hands I decided to not take the upper deck seats & took a seat at the back. From that angle, I can see the driver’s face reflected nicely on the mirror. HE IS SO CUTE… haha… Bak bak zeng zeng… Haha… If only Hui Wenn or Chong’en is here, we would have a lot of fun GAP him… haha…

Then now here I am, writing this post at 9.41pm… Got a short chat with Yi Xiong who is studying Med in Russia. Got 2 news from him. Yi Xiong got a Vietnamese girlfriend & will be moving in with her soon [dunno whether is it true…] while Sarah got a dunno what nationality boyfriend… haha…
Looks like people who are overseas can get into a relationship easily. Don’t know why thou…

Office Politics

I just realize that I might be too young to understand office politics. It’s really weird for me to know that people don’t trust others in office. Why must it be that?? I just can’t understand. Stacy said she don’t trust everyone in the office, everyone but me & Lisa. Is there a need to do so? Its not that as if they post are really high & different. Their post is all the same, so why must they act that way? The nicest person I though, Kelly is also a suspect who cannot be trust… I was just???? Why??? Just don’t understand.
I guess this is the Office Politics every grown up is experiencing… Right Dad, Mum? Haha…

Had my review today & my target for this week is 2400... > <' Hopefully i can meet my target.
Linda told me that she will disguss the Flexitime with me NEXT WEEK... * WEE * ... Finally i can be on Flexitime.. hehee.. that means i can leave earlier... hahaha... YEAH.. THen i can spendmore time with Dad & mum... haha...
So happy for that...

Oh yah anotther great news, Dan got back his previous job working at the counter at the takeaway chinese shop... Yeah.. that means more money to SPEND>.. YEEE>>>>hehe..

Saturday, May 28, 2005

Today Dan had his last paper… finally the last paper to go, and he will be a free man to WORK… MERDEKA … MERDEKA … MERDEKA [is this familiar to you… after SPM..haha...]
When I was walking towards the bus stop, the bus just drove pass me… Right in front of me!!!! I was like – HAR!!!!! Bus drivers in UK are really mean & bad… They will not wait for you although you are only a few steps away from it. There was once I saw the driver waving bye bye to the person who was running towards him… SO BAD la… That’s why got to learn the smart way. Never run after the bus cause its such an embarrassing act… haha… I never run after bus – everyone who followed me to Kasturi for tuition knows that… haha… Particularly Shu Ni & Ah Mou… hahaha….
As its Saturday, that means I got to wait longer for the next bus to come… Thou today’s not hot, but its freaking windy… = (
But guess what, something better happened… That’s why sometimes something happens for a reason, and it might be for a good reason … haha… Mr. Oakley was the driver for the next bus [Hui Wenn knows best who he is… haha…].
While I was in the bus waiting for the red light to turn green, I saw Dan, Tommy & Adrian walking to the other side. I wanted to call them but couldn’t do so cause I was basically in the bus full with HUMAN BEINGS… wouldn’t want all the attention on me… haha… maybe because we are brother & sister, Dan seems to feel the existence of me and he looked into the bus and found me = ) – Sam Leng Gam Yeng…

We then walked to ICHIBAN for lunch. Everyone seems to be CRAZY… they basically talked bout NON SENSE… really crap man… made me nearly choke to death when I was eating wantan mee… They were joking about Adrian trying to flea back to HK because of his gf… Guess how is he ‘going back’, like what they show in the TVB & HK movies – SAMPAN driven by Thai… haha… just imagine suddenly Dan called Adrian then while they ar chatting suddenly someone speaks Thai… haha… & the sound of the motor… haha…
They even crapped about the way back, from UK back to HK passing Pacific Ocean… haha… Then got waves… tidal waves… tsunami… sharks… haha… Now imagine when they are talking on the phone suddenly Adrian say [in Cantonese] – Eh sao sin zu sin, yao dai long lei gan, qi dit sin keng… haha….[English translation – Hey dude, talk later there is a wave coming, call you back… haha…]. And bare in mind it’s a sampan not a ship… haha…
I guess they have just become insane cause they are finally FREE… free from studies and got to work to earn money… all really sot sot de la.. kept on talking stupid things… haha…

After crapping, Veronica came and meet me in the snooker center then we went shopping = ) . As the grand sale will be next month, Veronica and I decided NOT to buy clothes this month. Wouldn’t want our money spend in a wrong way = ).
The sales here work this way. For example Topshop. They have different stages. For the first stage would be CERTAIN items on discounts and CERTAIN section BUY 1 FREE 1. then the 2nd stage would be 10%, 20%, 30%. The 3rd stage would be 50%, 60%. The final stage would be BUY 1 FREE 1 & 70%, 80%. So much better than Malaysia’s sale huh… haha…
For this month I aimed for a shoe. Only shoe no clothes [I hope…haha]
Today when I went to Topshop, it was packed. There were so many things to buy!!! I love their accessories. They have much compared to Malaysia’s Topshop & they are nicer… haha… of course la.. aiseh…haha…
Went and have a look at the buy 1 free 1 section. It was just messy [as usual I guess…]. If I would have extra money to buy I believe I can buy a lot of things from that section. At least I spotted a skirt that is really nice. But, I had a deal with Dan that I will buy only shoes… so… suan la… next month baru buy… haha…
I saw a really nice pair of earring, wanted to buy but looking at the queue just changed my mind. Would get it on Tuesday after work… haha…
Of course I wouldn’t miss the shoe section. I saw this really nice ballet type of shoe, had a try on it and it didn’t look good on me… haha… then I spotted a sport shoe type of shoe. Looks a bit like Adidas’s shoe, so basically it’s a simple design sports shoe… its 25pound… but then I decided not to rush, wouldn’t want to miss any other nice shoes wouldn’t I .. hehe…

We then went to River Island. Man the shoes there were really nice & expensive. 50 pounds oh… but its realllly really really NICE… its just over my budget, so got to give up… hope that when its sale… the price will drop… haha…

Next stop was Accessorize. I WANT TO ROB ACCESSORIZE ah… love all the accessories and bags ah!!!!!!!!!!! By the way I got a pair of dragonfly earring from Accessorize yesterday [right after work… haha…]

Later we went to ZARA [my favorite]. Bought a blouse from it = ). Then I was so tempted to buy the skirts… I HAVE NOT BEEN WEARING SKIRT FOR MONTHS ah!!!! I always wear skirt back in Malaysia and I miss those days… And finally its spring so I can wear skirts… hehehe… want to wear skirt to Paris ma… don’t want to wear pants there … hahaha…
I tried on 2 skirts and I LOVE them… haha… I couldn’t believe that I am wearing S for those skirts… maybe it’s the cutting… I wouldn’t believe that I slim down… haha…
Veronica also got a really skirt she loves it a lot…. But then… we always remember that sale will be next month… so we gotta TAHAN… I LVOE SKIRTS!!!!!
Going to dai hoi sat gai next month… haha…

Finally my SHOES… I found one which I like it and the price is pretty reasonable 25pound. Its pink in color and looks a bit like the ballerina shoe… But guess what, NO SIZE… GEIK SEI LA>>
Suan… I found another one. It’s a closed up shoe and its round headed. Its those girlly type of pretty shoe… and its reasonable… Finally when there was size for me and it looks PERFECTLY on me, the problem of comfort pop up… cause it’s a round headed and my front toes are rather wide [I think] and its quite cram inside. I hesitated for a long time whether to buy or not to buy… after 2nd thought, whats the point of having a nice shoe where you wont feel comfortable [after a long walk]. I wanted to wear my this new shoe to Paris mah!!!! So I decided to go for a more comfortable shoe = ) I m a person who loves myself more than PRETTY [Oi Meng Moi Leng…. Hahaha]

Oh yah, i bought my monthly bus pass too which cost me 34 pound > <' .. stupid betul.. with taht money i can shop ah!!! Suan la.. thats a necessity = (
they raise the price from 31 pound to 34 ah.. ma de.. with that extra 3 pound i might get myself a TEE ah...hahaa...[going to be insane with Shopping... haha]

Will continue my shoe hunt at ENVY. Hopefully I can get a nice and reasonable shoe there.
I gotta shop for a set of clothing to attend my brothers Convocation… hehe… gotta wear nice nice.. pretty pretty.. hahhaha…


Going Shopping = _ )

Friday, May 27, 2005

Today was just another typical working day just that it became worse for these 2 days because Stacy is on leave and there is no one to talk with me. Know what, I had key in 2750 data on Thursday and 2500 data on Friday, compared to Wednesday where I just key in 2100 data… haha… all because I talked with Stacy for an hour!!!! Haha …

Spring is here and weather is getting much better. At least it wont rain like it used to be for the past few months and the wind is not cold at all. Instead it is cooling breeze and there is more sunlight. Talking about sunlight, I was boiling hot on Thursday. I got to take off my jacket while walking by the street and I actually sweat a lot… Man, I can’t imagine what summer will be like. Steaming and burning, basically baking every human being…
I think I got to start applying sun block to work, as what Doc Chiang said; sunlight will never be his recommendation to any patient… haha…
As everyone knows [I think], most the houses here don’t have air conditioner like Malaysians do. So I think summer will be just like hell for ME. Luckily I have this 2 in 1 heater fan… which will be dead useful when summer is here.

Back to Spring. The weather here is better than Genting. What Genting has is basically just cold wind without much sunlight, while here it had what you need to be nice… Sunlight & cool breeze. How I wish Malaysia’s weather is just like this, you can walk by the street without the problem of sweating and have a cool breeze caressing your face… Not that its not cold at all la… it can be quite cold when it rains, and I mean RAIN not drizzling… haha…

I went window shopping today after work and saw sooo many things I want to buy. From shoes to bags to accessories to clothing to scarves… almost everything. I swear if I am rich I will just buy the whole ZARA outlet… & Accessorize.
I think my stay here sort of will motivate me to study even harder for my future. Because from my experience of working I understand the fact that life will not be life without money. Some people say being money minded is not a good thing, it’s a evil thing. but bare in mind that money not everything but its something that you must have. Isn’t it??
Study hard to assure you have a bright future dudes… Gambate !!!! Aza Aza Fighting!!!
