arrived at 650am cos bus left early. friend phone didnt ring ( i thought friend FFK me.. ) if they did, i was in BIG trouble. i had no place to stay, and i was cold.. cos i didnt sleep well in the bus. lol
waited till about 9 am then the call came. went to restaurant. which belonged to his family.
in between 23 morning and 26 nite ( nite bus back to london) programs were like to EAT EAT EAT . sleep sleep watch VCD, take lotsa photographs..

26nite: sat next to a chinese girl who asked me why her ipod was in disk mode. ( i've never seen an ipod in disk mode. so sorry couldnt help her. :P
went straight back to work after going home taking a shower and an hour's nap.
logged on msn some friend asked me to go WoW.. crazy ahh.. i say .. i jsut got back.. and need sleep lol .

27-29 worked like a dog.. no earlier than 9. but on 29 cos cat was away, the mice went home REALLY early.

NYE weekend. stayed at home the whole day. cooked stewed pork ( but dunno how to get rid of the smelly pork smell la.. but at least it wasnt as smelly as it was originally cos i soaked it and washed it)

usually i marinate with salt, sugar, lotsa black pepper, chinese wine, dark and light soya sauce, few dashes of L&P, and 5 spice powder. should be strong enough to get rid of the smelly smell.

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 ...

living on a budget

£4 per weekday and £10 for groceries for the week. that's it's gonna be till sept. hopefully.. until i start to try shopping again .. -_- so far for the last few days has been okays. spent like £8 for groceries for this week. some beef, some chicken wings( which i completely finished during the weekend) which included half a kg of fruit and nut cadbury. today was 2 for £2 sausage rolls from tescos. nothing else happened. my friend's father died of lung cancer. i wish them condolences. it was so sudden apparently. but i have had no contact with them since i left KL/miri. i heard it from another friend who was in miri who msged me asking me about my blood pressure as he said he was scared now. i asked. scared of dying ? lol. anyways, it's best to be preventing than trying to cure it when it comes.. so i really have to switch back to no salt diet.. 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...

Ultimate Burger. ( sorry no pics)

Tried something new for lunch the other day. namely ultimate burger. . it's a tad pricey when compared to the burgers i had in macdonalds or burger king. :P £7 per medium sized burger. i had just the minted lamb burger(£6.95), and some spicy onion rings.(£1.95) in the ultimate burger store in tottenham court road. it was not too bad. a pretty nice setting too. all u have to do is queue up order ur food, then get a number then u put it on the table. they have sort of a hanger for u to put ur numbers to. just like in those kind of chinese open air market in petaling jaya give u number then they come look for u.. but this one they come to look for u with ur food almost about 2 mins after u've sat down and they would ask u if u liked ur food. gripes about the food. lamb burger seems small.. but its' about the size of a chargrilled flame burger in burgerking. taste wise, very tender lamb meat with mint sauce. it's nice. :P the onion rings are a different matter though . for ...
