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.

Half Day Leave

Damn, I should have called in and just tell them I couldnt make it THAT DAY!! Instead, I went to work and had a super block nose -,-''. THe blockage was so annoying, I told Joan I got to have a half day off.
Know what I lost? A half day PAY!! As I am leaving soon, the remaining leaves I have will be paid. ANd me applying a half day off, means I lost half day pay (If you get what I mean)!!

The day was super gloomy. Rainning, wind, freezing temperature. In UK, handling a simple umbrella requires SKILLS, just because of the freazing strong wind is capable of snapping your umbrella into HALF! You need to hold your umbrella following the wind's direction. I was so busy checking the wind direction and in the other hand crossing the road. I guess the drivers were laughing at me by the way I holded the umbrella.

Anyway, went to Morrisons and got some ready meal for next week and a salad box for lunch.
I am so glad I took the half day off. Although I didnt sleeep at all, leaving the office meant something GREAT!! Haha.

Today's pretty good. I manage to reached my target without working any extra time ***
Then went to the post office to get some letters sorted out, then went shop for Gary's birthday present. Got his this messenger bag which I think is more useful than a braclet. AT LEAST he can use it for some purpose.
Bought a massage thing for granny. Its from Thailand and it contains some herbal medicine thing that will help sooths ache muscle pain etc. Should be useful. Oh yah, and a bird nest for dad to deco the garden. haha.

OH - the big news of the day. Stacy broke up with GARY (the other gary)!!!! Looks like she had enough of his stupid demand on her social life. GOOD FOR HER. But the problem right now is getting her mortage sorted out.
Silly her, shouldnt ever get money involved into something that is sooo not certain yet.

AND AND AND, I am so going for a massage!! Just realised this place call City Treat (I think) near my office and the deal's pretty good (Not cheap la..). Its between a back relaxing massage with essential oil (I think) or a Cleansing back massage (as I have pretty bad back).
Will seee how Stacey's massage go first. Haha. Heard that we (PPA Staff) have discounts !! YEAH!!!!!!!!

F1 Sepang

Finally Formula 1 is back in my LIFE!!
Slept at 3.30am and woke up at 6.45am by Dan. I dont know why but I just LOVE to Formula One. One thing I am not sure is - do I like Formula One or Michael Schumacher. haha. OMG, I am influenced by Pn. Chua who always say him HANDSOME. Hahaha.
I think I am not the same as Pn Chua. Haha. I admire him for his sucess in F1 and his charm (I guesss). People who are sucessful always have this glow and awesome 'aura' /attraction.

For this season, there's a lot of new teams. Most of them share the same mother company or I mistaken as sharing the same company's engine means same company??
So whats the results? Michael got 6th. And stupid 2 Renautls were in front. -_-''. Dont like Alonso!! THinks he is arrogant for his age, even the 7 times champion doesnt do that!!

When the race ended, its about 9am, I wanted to go back to bed, but DAMN I couldnt sleeep!!!
Therefore, I stayed awake since 6.45am with only 3 hours of sleeep for the WHOLE day!!
Was dead tired when at night. -_-''

New Friend

Damn it, aunty Soobee was serious about the introducing korean dude to me!! AH!! Haha.
Went to her place cause Heidi need some advice from someone so I went there with her.
The minute I enter the living room, a guy was sitting inside and I was like - SHIT?!?!
I act normal as usual. Acting shy or embarass will just make things even more awkward isnt it?
And I dont want to act stupid like 38-poh. Haha.
Main reason of going to aunty's place is because Heidi want to seek advice from a grown up regarding her relationship problem. Haha. ANd of course, to pass her some korean stuff.

I took Spring Day for aunty and guess what, she've WATCHED!! AH!! Luckily I had Gong with me inside Veronica's hardisc * wee *. If not its such a waste!! ANd that being my HIT DRAMA for now, I was so excited to show her the drama! haha.

Heidi was really bad! Teasing me saying he likes me ><''. The funniest thing was - according to aunty he WAS SUPPOSE to be BETTER looking than Rain etc, but the fact was - he is just super ordinary. Rain's look kept on coming into my mind and that was killling me to stop myself from LAUGHING OUT LOUD!! I asked aunty how to cook the seaweed and she refused to teach me (joking) and that fella volunteer saying HE KNOWS!! THen tat stupid Heidi kick me ><'' Then aunty's going back to Korea during this Summer Break, mid July. Too bad I will start school that time, but its not a good time to go there at that season cause its reallly hot!!! She suggested me to go next winter when she will be back too, to skiing resort!!! YEA!!! THEN again, aunty mention HE can drive us around in korea >,<. Made me in a super super uneasy saja -_-.
BUT, that doesnt stop me from making friend with him!! Haha, because he is USEFUL!! Haha.

After makan, as usual, Leah pulled me in to 'play' with her. Its my first time playing the piano in UK, and I LOVE it. I think I will be likely to start learning piano again when I go back. This time, I am more mature and certain what kind of stuff I want, so I think I will do pretty well in piano this time =).

The dude went back earlier. Heidi and I were concerned that he will want to 'escort' me home. But looks like we both perasan saja.. haha. Heidi and I stayed back till pretty late.
We talked about alot of things, boy girl relationship, Heidi's problem and of course Tong's problem~!! Man, never thought she is such a girl. Haha. Problem besar besar...

Being Friday night, all the cabs were busy and I only manage to get the cab for 20 pass 12am. ><'' Oh yah, I still dont know what's the guy's name. haha. I only know he is 26 years old. Haha. Can be my big brother. He looks REALLY korean. Haha. Think he is a good guy, thats all. A pretttty goood night =). NIGHT NIGHT ***
