This park i went on saturday. wanted to see what was so nice about this park.As usual, i stopped at the wrong bus stop. had to walk about 45 mins to the park. (30 mins was spent in pc world high street kensington i think)

I dont really like parks and i have no ideas why i went. but i went anyways. it was cold but sunny. i bought some snacks from a nearby somerfield. brought it to the park to have a relaxing afternoon. It was only spoilt by some ppl who smoked in the park. the benches are not really that close to each other but of course la. the smoke does go everywhere. i know cos i used to do that. hahaha. it wasnt hard to find cos all i had to do was get to the nearest station which i think it was high street kensington and then i took a look at the map. and there it showed holland park. ( i think why i wanted to go was also because i watched too much eureka seveN. )to be exact, i got in the entrance opposite waitrose. or odeon if that's a better landmark.

there IS one thing special about this park. ( this is the only park i've actually tried to find something special about) the benches are donated by ppl who wanted the memories of their loved ones who used to frequent the park. it is a good concept i think. there was no lack of benches. there were cute doggies running around. nice sunshine.
spent like i think about 3 hours there before i thought i was gonna freeze. then i made my way home. wanted to go to the museums. but heck, i'm not a historical person. unless someone from history gives me some inheritance. so i didnt. maybe next time.
it's a 4 day week. and the next week. and i think the week after next next.
happy easter. ! 4 days from now.

got my japanese visa.

1 year multiple entries. each entry 90 days. nice ! anyways, i think i did mention that japanese efficiency was also seen in the embassy ???!!?? alright, please scratch that. the time i went was early in the morning and i was one of the first person there so service was fast. i found the service to be comparable to other embassies where they are not really that quick.. well.. can't blame them just that it was my bad luck that my visa wasn't printed. 1. i went in the morning at 10 at stated on the paper. 2. she tried to find it.. couldn't find my passport. and then she said it's not ready yet.. please come back in the afternoon. T_T. (i shouldn't have woken up so early) 3. i went back to the embassy after lunch. took warren st to green park. it was stated severe delays but when i went on it.. it was quite quick. 4. i was the second in line to collect visa. not ready.. T_T.... he said.. 5 mins.. they are gonna print it now... 5. i waited.... 5 mins.... 10 mins.... 15 ...

A short history of my reading of books

I read 3 books on sat and sunday. some say i don't really read these books that i say i read because i read so fast that i can't possibly grasp the entire story. and some say stories are best read slowly and digested slowly. I've always been a person who rushes through most of the things i do. sometimes i take time and do the stuffs slowly sometimes quickly. kk. right now from saturday onwards, i'm gonna keep count on how many books i can read till i exhaust the feeling that i wanna read books. i started reading when i was 8 years old. i mean REALLY into reading. i spent one year living with my aunt back in sibu and while all my older cousins were studying and doing their own things, i sat down in front of the TV and watched the friday's cartoon. about a whale with special powers. ( this was usually met by my uncle with dark looks because i watch too much telly.) i read the whole childcraft encyclopedia. ( it wasn't hard because it was done in such a way that a ...

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...
