short update blog meet in london. reminds me of IRC meets 10 years ago :P

right.. the title does make me sound old.. but not as old as i felt when jon mentioned.. "i thought u were younger". hahahaha!!
never mind that. we met up at cafe rendezvous where all they served was yoghurt icecream. or drinks. erm i wasnt that thirsty or hungry to eat yoghurt. i ate enough yoghurt when i was growing up to last a lifetime. considering i've a mom who made them every other day. fresh yoghurt everyday. eat it and it's good for you. sister liked it more than i did i think. :P
now u gotta imagine.. lessee.. patrick and vish was there first. i didnt know where was the cafe. but i was lucky to put the map on my fone b4 i went. so at least i knew roughly where it was. well.. i walked the other way and then i found out it was on the other side of the park. will post the pics up in later on monday if i'm not that freaking busy.
anyways, reached there. talked for a bit. met vish. then jon and jenni came. vish's friend was there as well. then a few more of them joined in afterwards.
felt hungry. asked them when should we go and eat. it was at wagamama. too long a queue. didnt wanna wait. walked to china town. into a restaurant. ate. went to borders read a bit then bought a frappucino. £2.90 for a grande. that's london for u. not sure bout the price back home. but b4 i left, prices in kl were still at RM11.00.
right, all in all i had fun. made it felt like home. heheh. at least i didnt really need to speak proper english. :p
met a korean who said, if u asked me which part of korea i'm from.. have u ever met anyone from any other part of korea... lol. apparently north koreans can't leave the country ? not sure.
and met a guy from Uzbezkistan. learnt a few russian words to test out on my colleague on monday.
supin sin, atig galiboy and takizo or something like that. muahahhahahahha
met a indian londoner as well. all in all , great meet up.
ahh back to the title. hehe.
the last time i did this kind of meet up over the internet was about 9 years ago. i put 10 years cos it makes it sound nicer. hehe. well IRC was the IN thing back then. it was still fun. i do keep in touch with a few of them from the IRC days. most of us never use IRC anymore but those were the days.
now the IN thing now is bloggers meetup. they are EVERYWHERE !!!
yeah wanted to write this down b4 i forget about the irc meet.
was in borders and found out that they were having some sort of anime convention in excel centre in docklands next weekend. will try my best to make it there . hehe
nites for tday.

i hate my kindle

- reason being i can't put it down when i start a book. and it doesn't make it any better that i can put so many books in there.. OMG.. i can just continue reading.. so far i've used the kindle for like 2 weeks ? or maybe a week.. since i hate it.. i'll say only the bad things i can find about it.. 1. erm.. when eating do not read. - makes it hard to wipe the oil stains off. nothing a cloth wouldn't wipe away. or maybe the hem of your shirt. 2. to jump flip the pages is a little hard. it's made for sequential reading. 3. dictionary is a little hard to use.. it doesn't let you highlight the word and checks it in the dictionary. 4. collections.. i have a few books which i loaded on it. but to actually navigate through them takes some time as i can't seem to organise my books via any book management tool. meaning they can't group the books by folder. kindle just shows everything in one big list. 5. it looks so cool that most of the time when i am readin...

T_T kk that's it. season 6 of 24 was like erm... okays... it was basically a repeat of the plots.. hope that's the la...
