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.

of brussels sprouts and racial features.

brussel sprouts are in season i think. they are going for 1 pack for 52p. it used to be like 1/4 of the pack for £1. but now seems to be cheaper. oh yeah. it seems to be siu pak choi. but it just didnt opened. anyways, that nite i went to morrisons, to buy more food. but when i walked halfway i found out that i didnt bring my wallet.. ^$£"%$£^%$ but lucky i had coins in my pocket. all i had was 96p. how sad.. lol . i went to the store to look for nga choi. er.. whta they call them here.. i think some sort of beans.. they usually sell them for 45p. i wanted it cos i cooked chicken rice mah. but then they didnt have it. and they have mixed stir fried thingy which was £1.29. poor ole me didnt buy it cos i didnt have enough lol so i hunted for cheap stir fry vege, the sprouts looked like a cheaper alternative. well.. i bought it. cooked it ate it with chicken rice. next thing i knew.. i was down with a bloody cough. ugh.. lotsa phlegm. not sure how i got it.. but that aside, i've ...

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.
