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. |

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. -_-''
