The Day After Yesterday....

how ironic that i went to watch war of the worlds on last nite. it was an impromptu decision as some of my friends wanted to go watch a movie in odeon.
little bit about the cinema i went. it was empty. erm not literally empty but there weren't alot of ppl at the cinema. bought the tickets.
£7 for adults and my friends had student cards.. so they paid less i think.
not sure how much less. but for shows before 5pm they get to pay only £5.50.
cinema was BIG ! HUGE Seats as well. chairs were stacked nicely so that ppl's head won't block the view of the person behind watching the show.
the ads were a bit nicer though. movies starts after 15 to 20 mins of trailers and ads. it was free seating. not sure if that happens all the time. but maybe it was because there were so few ppl watching the show.
After the movie, i found out that i AM an movie fan. cos i didnt really like that story after all. bear in mind that i've forgotten about how the storyline went. ( it was written by H.G. Wells about 120 years ago. friend said it was good.
oh well.. :P
back to yesterday,
when i was going home, i saw sooooooo many ppl walking towards the finsbury park station which they said was open. and to walk from my office to finsbury park should take at least 1 and half hours. phew.. that was hard walking.
but i got me trusty old bike. got home in one piece. didnt dare to go too near buses after i heard about the news.
today, the streets were not as jammed up as yesterday but the route i take to go to work everyday which usually has very little or no cars was JAMMED.
i saw on telly what was actually shown to the world outside of london, then i realized that THAT was the reason why ppl were so worried because from where i was, i didnt notice a thing. but the news showed all the bloodied mess, the blast on the bus, phew.. Thank God i was not there but for those who were caught by the blast, lets hope they are coping up with the aftershock of the thingy.
Union Jack is at half mast today. ( nope didnt see that either just what i saw on bbc)
grats to the metro police who handled the situation well enough that i didnt even know what was happening. :P
that's all for today.

Mr. Kipling's Battenberg Cake. looks nice..

hmmm been so busy on friday forgot to update. will post 2 post to console myself today. to the cake. cake looks cute. but tastes horrible. maybe it was because i bought it cheap from sainsbury . it's original price was £1.29. but i bought it for 49p. cheap as i was. maybe that's the reason the cake tasted bad.. but the expiry wasnt till anohter 2 days time. :P anyways, it tasted like smelled like cough syrup. u know those red coloured ones. tasted okays. the outer layer is just icing erm or rather sugar.. no ideas waht that was but it was SWEET. then inside, just like the normal sponge cake. all in all.. i wouldnt buy it ever again. :P here are the pics.

my boring weekend

i went to camden on sat and almost got rammed by a stupid green car on the way back. anyways, i was bored. and it was a nice day. don't know anything bout tour de france, or wimbledon. took my bike out. and cycled down towards camden. it was a change from cycling to work. i spent £7 in sainsburys cos they were having a half price sale on john west's tuna in cans. the usual price is about £3.19. bought some stuffs.. ( coulnd't buy a lot cos i don't wanna ride home on a punctured bike) but i bought too many as well. i bought jaffa biscuit for 69p. for 24 pieces. finished it b4 sat was over. took some photos on the way. went into o2 to see if i could get any nice phones for free. turned out that i couldn't because i havent paid any phone bills since last year. looks like i'm gonna hvae to switch my sim card to a pay as you go thingy. then i went to the outdoor emporium to take a look at the karrimor travelpack. i dunno why .. that one seems to call out to me other
