Attention please, my dearest cousin!

This is a notification for my beloved and best cousin brother, THE MYSTERIOUS ONE.



Your stuff has arrived, and so much for Hasbro, worried that everyone might not realise what it is, had the word TOYS, put in bold, and the toy in a box way too big for the actual thing. Your TOY, arrived within 3 working days, and so far (from the exterior) it is in perfect condition.





You still owe me 30 pounds, remember OK...MUAHAHAHA!

So so, am I a good cousin or wat? Am I your best cousin sister??!?!? You don't have to tell me, I know the answer already. It's a very big YES.

***************************************

On another note, I woke up this morning only to find I have loads of messages on my MSN but I wasn't logged in. Weird...until I noticed that everything's offline as well.

Reason? The construction work next door dug up Camden's cable and everyone went offline for the whole day.

That is so great.

Just when I needed to check my mail, confirm my reservations, transfer my funds, contact agents, and check the weather, I have no access to the net. In the end I have to drag my lazy bum down to Pandon and use that particular one cranky computer which switches off its monitor every time I touch it.

But alas, it's back now. *whew* I need to get things done...

P/S: There will be no updates after this for some time, so remember to miss me, EVERYONE! :P

Bored...and it's Father's Day

Really have to blog about Father's Day meh?!?! So many people already blogging about it, do I really have to? Nope, I don't really think so.

Unless...this involves my father giving me a big, fat wad of cash (GBP preferred), then I shall definitely do it immediately. HAHA!

Note: Who doesn't like cash? I definitely do. And you think so easy to get that sort of money from a banker meh...CHEH! Besides, my parents don't know about this blog (Let my Dad know?? Are you nuts?!?), so I think it's pretty pointless to anyway.

But still, it's Father's Day. So I still did what a filial daughter did: Happy Father's Day, Daddy! (over MSN, of course...)

OK, onto another topic...

I'm SO addicted to J-drama now. Previously it was Hana Yori Dango, now it's Nodame Cantabile.

BUT...maybe too many people have been using Crunchyroll so the bandwidth's busted for the weekend even though I haven't been watching on it for 2 weeks already. *sigh*

Actually I do have the series with me, but it's subbed in Mandarin. (Crunchyroll's a saver in this sense because it's got subs in English) Bah... I can still watch it, but I gotta pause the series to read the subs, and I swear my lappie might just go on a strike if I do that too much. Very tiring for me also OK...to click click click...can't even watch my drama in peace.

The appeal is there...plus it's a comedy. It's stupidly funny, and I'm only in Episode 3. Hehe...

Will be trying in another 2 hours. See if it works then... :P

The Countdown

I got it yesterday, in my mailbox, in a small envelope addressed to me. It's been some time since I've got any real mail, so when I opened it, I did not expect to see what I see.






Tickets to my graduation: 5 Guests & 1 Student

At first, I thought that I could only collect them on the day itself from my Programme Leader. (According to the instructions given in the e-mail) Didn't know that they would actually post it to me 1 month beforehand.

Then I just realised, my graduation is just another short month away! However, this also means that my results would be released very very soon. *tsk* *tsk*

***************************************

And next week, I'm going to Europe!!! (YooHOOOooOOOOoOO~~~!) Won't be around for at least 3 weeks, so my blog will be quite dead for almost a month. (Unless I get that very rare chance to blog from Europe, which is highly not possible...) But, there'd definitely be interesting pictures to share when I get back. HAhAHA!

But before that, I would need to finish off the food at home first. Which is quite a lot. I always have this feeling that I don't have enough food in my cupboard and before they really run out, I've already got extras in my cabinet. Which slowly accumulated to an impressive (but scary) amount. So I'm trying not to shop for anything until I finish off the leftovers (both cooked and raw) as much as I can. So I wouldn't have to worry about it when I move out of Camden Court.

Such shitty timing...just when I needed to go on a diet.

Splurge

I just can't help it. It's been so long since I really enjoyed shopping by myself. Plus, the excitement of getting new shoes. (I used to be "THE Shoe Queen/Freak")


Shoes: My very first purchase of the day!


And there I was, still trying to convince myself that I don't need anything else. Maybe...except some toiletries, which are all essentials, you know!


Halfway there, I saw this...

...which only came with any purchase of 2 of their products.


OK, fair enough. I needed some moisturiser anyway to feed my "oh-so-prune-like" skin after the trip from Barcelona.


So, I got these...



...and also because the lady told me that with the sun range products, like this...



...I would get this as well



But it's not done yet...


And she gave me this...

...which takes of 5 pounds of my purchase. (MUAHAHA!!!)


And and and!!! I'm not done yet...


Within this magazine...



I got this for FREE...



HAHAHA! I can't stop smiling for the rest of the day. And I forced myself to walk back home before I give in to more temptations which lie ahead threateningly.


Then I remember my original intention of going out that day: Need to go to Orange.


Yikes, totally forgotten! :P

HK Style Tea House

Normally people call it "Cha Chan Teng". (Dunno whether I got the spelling right or not, this is the best I can do.)

Wanted to just get some of the pastries and stuff to fill our tummies at first. But then, since today is a rainy day (that's summer in Newcastle for you there...) I was craving for some hot & soupy stuff. So in the end, I ordered Wanton Noodles with Milk Tea.



Wanton noodles *slurp* with a fair bit of sambal-like chilli!!! (not in picture)



Dish: Fried udon with pork chops. Drink: Honey lemon tea. Background: The sambal-like chilli.


I kinda like their egg tarts...and some of their nice biscuits........and the different type of breads...............and also their other pastries.................................and some of their other dishes look yummy too.........*droning*
