straying away from life in the uk.

i know i've been straying away from mentioning about how i live. haha. not just memories of bygones.
like they say , let bygones be bygones.
i woke up REAL sleepy today. wanted to call in sick but decided against it.. thought the cycling would do me good.
went to work. then popped by the walk in clinic** around soho square during lunch time to check out my cough.
they were real nice. but they couldnt help me. cos i think cos i said i was coughing blood. lol clumps of blood. so i need to go see the doctor.
as all the walk in clinics, don't have the facility or the personnel to deal with a little major stuff.
they do minor stuffs.etc etc.
anyways, the nurse was nice. should i call her a health personnel to be more PC? she asked me a few questions. which i could have done so.
well, cos i got some information about my coughing from the internet b4 i went and basically what she told me was what i found out on the net.
but best not to do self diagnosis as all the smart-asses die faster than the non smart asses. so i am deciding not to be a smart ass. i will go to the doc later after work today.
after all, i pay NHS every month. or wassit taxes.. can't remembre.. i don't pay much attention to my payslips.
which i will need to cos i'm looking for a cheap place to buy instead of me renting..
oh well, that's done for today. my teeth hurts.. dunno if it's from the cough, or something else.. i havent seen the dentist either.
hmmm dun like them.. lol

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...
