YAWN.....

It's currently 3 in the afternoon and believe it or not, I just woke up from bed.

Ever since I came back from UK, my days have been divided into two sections, afternoon and night.

I mean, the average time I go to sleep at night is about 5 or 6 in the morning.

Normally, I watch Pokemon with my sis then we both go to sleep at around that time. But yesterday, for some strange reason, my sis went to sleep right after we came back from Pavilion. (we went to watch a Christmas Carol but that's not what this post is about)

So yesterday night/morning. I spent a whole 2 hours arranging the books and CD's on my shelf to the way I like it. At first I thought I would go for height, but then all my authors were mixed up. So then I went by author. Which made it much easier for me to find my books. But then it's kinda messy. So I feel a little bit bad about it. Why don't they just set a standard height for all books? Then my room will look so much better. =)

This is probably what my time table might look like today.

Afternoon: *Arrange books in study room
*Play House of Dead in wii
Night:*Watch 2012
Morning/Night: *Try to arrange books by alphabetical order or genre.

One last note before I end this post:
Siao Gang people!! Wanna go and watch New Moon tomorrow??? Call me or Hui Ling ookkkkaaaayyy??? Bye!!

My dirty little secret

Does any of you remember Pokemon?

=)

Of course you do.

It's like the Ben 10 of our childhood.

=)

Anyway, so moving on. Back in the day, we didn't have the convenience of the Omitrix. So we have the Pokeball!! Which one uses to capture Pokemon!!!



And it can conveniently shrink into a small little Pokeball which looks something like this


And back in those days we had to catch our own Pokemon (well, except for you first Pokemon, that the Professor of town *insert your town name here* will give you), not like a certain 10-year-old boy who already has ten aliens give to him.

As a young kid, I used to think that Pikachu was the most awesome Pokemon there was. Well I was mistaken, I now see the error of my ways and finally realise that the most awesome Pokemon in the world is..... Psyduck


And it's cute too! Teehee!!

So I guess you're all wondering why I'm blogging about Pokemon today.

"I thought that was because you we're retarded!"

I heard that Gwen!!

Okay, I'll admit that it is partially because I'm retarded. But it's also because for the past few days I've been watching Pokemon on Youtube!! Yay!!! I'm reliving my childhood!

Well, it all started out with my sister. Then she got me hooked on it too. And now we're Pokemon Junkies!!! Go Pokemon!!


Oh goodness, He's doing the KAWAII pose! O.o

Now for my favorite character(s) in the show.

"I thought that was Psyduck!!"

Shut up Gwen!! Stop interrupting my post!!

*ahem*

It's Jessie and James!! aka Team Rocket!


They're such losers!

I like them so much!!!

=)

But they only have two Pokemon, which are both equally suckish. And they're "evil scemes" never work. And they follow Ash, Misty and Bronk everywhere

Well, all that dosen't matter cause they have an awesome theme song!!

"To protect the world form devistation!

To unite the people within our nation!

To denounce the evils of truth and love!

To extend our reach to the stars above!

Jessie!

James!

Team Rocket! Blasting off at the speed of light!

Surrender now or prepare to fight!"

=)
=)
=)
=)

Hehe!!

I love that!!

Granted it's not really a theme song but it's a theme something! And it rocks!!!!!!!!!!

Okay now it's time to end my post!! =) So, as Team Rocket would say:

"We're blasting off again!!!"

Teehee!!

book of the day

Okay!! So today I just wanna introduce to you one of the handful of books that I think are timeless classics.

And no, it's not Twilight cause you all know that i know that you know that we all know that everyone else knows that Twilight is just a fad.

Sorry Twilighters, it's the truth.

Don't get me wrong. I like Twilight as much as the next person (Edward!!!) but that's the hard truth.

Deal with it.

So, anyway here it is:

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time
Mark Haddon

(Ignore that book club sticker)


This one is definitely a timeless classic. And it's really cute too. =)

It's about this boy, who is autistic, and he decides to write a book! So he tries to make it a detective novel cause he says that fiction is stupid cause the authors talk about things that has never happened. Which is kinda ironic since this story is fiction. Haha. He starts with writing about the case he wants to investigate, which involves his neighbor's dog who was murdered with a garden fork. So then he sets off to find the murderer cause he really liked that dog.

Anyway, lotsa other things happen in the story but I can't tell you all of it cause then where's the fun in that?

Long story short, it's an awesome story and you guys should go and get the book or you could lend it from me! =)

And this concludes my new segment called, "Tomorrow's Classics" =) (like the name??)

Get that BOOK!!!! =)

Home

Well... home at last...

13 hours on the plane really does wonders for your ass.

haha

so... I guess I'm gonna havta talk about my England experience.

here goes!!

Day 1: London.

After 13 hours on the flight to Heathrow the hired car drove us to the Trebovir Hotel in London. No wifi there. Haha. And the first show I watched in London was Friends. haha. After we made ourselves comfortable, we proceed to look for some food. And I had the biggest burger of my life there. =) =)

Day 2: London.

We took the underground to Tower Hill. Which is the station for the Tower of London. Which was interesting. I could tell you about the history of the place, but I kinda forgot 70 percent of it. =) So anyway, we didn't do very much there. We went for the exhibitions and stuff and walked around the compound. So after that we went to the Tower bridge. Which wasn't very interesting for me, it's all mechanics and stuff. But my dad loved it. Go figure. Anyway after that, we wanted to go to Ripley's but when we got there, we realised that it was about 20 pounds per person which is roughly 120 bucks here. So we decided to go back to the hotel since we were still jet lagged.

Day 3: London.

First stop for that day was the Portebella market. Which kinda reminded me of Nigahiga. You know, the "Carl's Junior Portabella Mushroom Burger!" thing. =) Anyway, it was a like a antique market and my mum bought herself an old timely camera that actually works! That was cool. St. Paul's Cathedral. It was the biggest cathedral I've ever seen in my life. So grand. And I was like :O all the way. =) After that we had chinese food for lunch. =) teehee. So later, we went to this huge Apple store were we just sat and did nothing until we went back to the hotel.

Day 4: London.

Last day in London... We went to St James park first thing in the morning. Then later we went to Buckingham Palace to watch the changing of the guard. The changing of the guard starts at 11.30 and me and my sis was already saving ourselves a spot at 10. And by the time 11 came around. The court yard around the palace was so full, it was like World Stage all over again. O.o After the crowd got bored of watching the people march we managed to cabut cause we also very very bored already. Then later we went to the museum of National history. I saw a dinosaur and one of them went RAW!! then I was like: "I love you too!!"

Day 5: London-Bath

So we went to Windsor Castle by car (we rented a car to drive, no more subway for us!). And the Queen's house is HUGE!! Oh, and in the gallery, the queen had works of Da Vinci on display. And I was staring at the mirror writing on one of his art on display. Don't know why i bothered to pay so much attention to it since even if I did have a mirror, it would all be in Italian anyway. Then we continue the drive to Bath. Which is like a fairy tale cause all the houses there are so old and farm lands are everywhere.

Day 6: Bath
Bath Abbey was the first stop on our trip to town today. After that we went to the Roman Bath. Which was just pools of hot spring water really. We couldn't even put our fingers into the water cause it was 'untreated" water which means it's toxic. haha. not really. Then we made our way to Stonehenge which was awesome. But we din't go in cause it was 3.55 and the place closes at 4 so we took pictures outside the fence. O.o we sound like stalkers. haha.

Day 6-7:Bath-Oxford-Birmingham

So we drove to Birmingham and made a stop at Oxford. Which was suppose to give me inspiration. And my mum kept saying "Cambridge is cooler." And I was like O.o We didn't really do much in Oxford. Shopping a bit, sight seeing a bit... So then we continued our journey to Birmingham. But we stopped in a small little town call Broadway first. Not the sing-song Broadway, the english high tea Broadway. =)

Day 8: Birmingham

So we drove to Stratford-Upon-Avon that day. For the some of you who don't know, it's the birthplace of Shakespere. Nothing much here. Just checked out some of the houses he owned and the house that he was born in. Did some shopping too!!

Day 9: Birmingham

SHOPPING DAY!!! But of course we didn't but much cause everything in the shopping complex was designer and expensive. So I went and watched NEW MOON!!! Be jealous!!! =)


Day 10: Birmingham-Cambridge-Heathrow

I'd hate to say it, but Cambridge was kinda cooler compared to Oxford... Plus i saw Stephan Hawking! No joke! =) We were having lunch at this Chinese restaurant. i was sitting facing the window and I saw Stephan hawking and his attendent pushing his wheel chair down the sidewalk. And I was like :O Then my mum was like, "What are you looking at?" Then I was like, "That's Stephan Hawking!" Then everyone else was like, "WHERE??!!" haha. So after that little scene, we sat one of those little boats they have in Venice down the canal in Cambridge. The "puntter" (at least that's what i call them. teehee) was telling us about the history of the place. After that inspiring trip to Cambridge, I think I might wanna go there. Haha. Don't worry about that now, it's still a long way to go before we graduate.

I guess that's all I did up until now. I can't wait till I see you guys again!! I got lotsa souvenirs for you lot!!! Muaksss!!!

like.....what?

Wow

Suddenly have this urge to blog...

Must be because i was reading all your blogs.

But the only reason why i was reading blogs cause I couldn't get the info i need from facebook. And sadly, I still didn't get the info I need from blogs. Cause it seems that no one in Wesley has blogged about the post exam results. O.o The only real info i got is from reading Kay Yi's blog. Congrats to all the power point and the creative model building people!!!

And that's it.

Why hasn't anyone blogged about the results?? O.o

Anyway, it's 10.10 pm here in England, and it's probably 6.10 am back home in Malaysia. This is my last night here in the U.K. I'm gonna miss it! Here's a list of things i discovered about the UK during my stay here:

1. They love to swear
2. They have small houses. (cause of the heating thing during the winter cause the cost of heating is super expensive.)
3. They have large servings. (i can barely finish a plate of spaghetti even if I share it with my sis.)
4. Advertisements here have no meaning. (Well, some of them do)
5. Practically 90% of the public television is under BBC
6. Very tourist friendly
7. Roundabouts are everywhere here
8. Hot guys are everywhere
9. Cinemas here has free seating
10. And the cinema is not very good. It's much better back home
11. They don't sensor the F word on tv
12. Porn magazines are everywhere
13. They love limousines
14. Bookstores are huge!
15. Books here are super cheap.
16. The underground in London takes you everywhere
17. They love to feed birds.
18. Chinese food here is awesome.
19. Sausages are even better
20. There are over 60 different universities.
21. They love bringing they're dogs everywhere.
22. 1 pound is about 6 ringgit.
23. The queen has very big houses called "palaces" =D

I'm sure there are other things too, but I can't remember at the moment. =)

Well, I did lotsa things during my stay in this very beautiful country, but it's too much to talk about. And i'm too lazy. Maybe i'll blog about it some other day. But don't count on it. haha

But i will tell you people about what happened today. We didn't do much. But since New Moon premiers today(20th of November) here, I thought that I would take the opportunity to watch it before all you people at home get to. Evil laugh time!

*ahem*

teehee

Don't worry! I'll still catch it with you guys at home again. Cause I just can't stop looking at Taylor Launtner. Haha. But i'm not going to tell you guys what happens or all the juicy bits and stuff cause then whats the fun in that? All I can tell you is that I only rate it a 3 over 5. But it was much better compared to Twilight.

So, please don't hate me and I miss you guys!

Signing off now.

Bye!!!
