updates up till now.

I've been lazy these past few months. i've stopped cycling to work since i started karate. it's lucky karate is near to my office so i can walk there after work.
it's been good. though i've had some ppl giving me weird looks saying violence ??!!??
geeez... well i figured its more fun and better than going to the gym. so i paid 35 a month to join up.
it's 35 a year for insurance. if i don't do it now, i may never learn..

i got my materials from open university as well. i'm gonna start a course this oct. i need to find out how to study part time as well as karate.

i am planning to have a holiday every month for the rest of the year.
which i've already done 1 out of 4. this month will be the second holiday. now now, before saying i've got a lot of holidays, i'm still getting 25 days.
in comparison with msia, it's about the same some even less.
i get about 8 bank holidays a year + 25 holidays = about 33 days holiday

in msia we get about 16 days public holiday a year + 14 days holiday = 30 days. so it's not really bad.
sometimes in msia u get about 20 days holiday that would make it a whopping 36 days.. *gulps*

apart from that, my visit to oktoberfest in munich last month was pretty uninteresting cos i didn't drink alot. :P
but the girls can really carry their steins of beer. and it was BIG !!
walked till my legs went kaput. we were in munich for 5 days and stayed in hostels 9 of us altogether .. woot.. travelling with friends is so much more fun !!
munich, visited the schlosses. ..lol museums, BMW museum walked around, ate alot of pork knuckles. and the germans love their pork.. everywhere i go i see pork knuckles.
and surprisingly we didn't see any KFC in any munich, nor stuttgart. i wonder why only hamburg had it.
in stuttgart we visited the mercedes museum.
BMW = bavarian motor werks. ( the blue and white logo came from the bavarian flag)
MErcedes - the name of someone's daughter in spanish means grace lol

that's it for today .
i got hit at my left sides, thigh and body on monday .. and it still hurts today.

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...

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...
