Back from London!!!

Finally back from the nut-freezing cold weather of London...let me tell you, unless you're a 'cold' person, DO NOT GO WHEN IT'S NEARING WINTER!!!!

Be prepared to READ...
Ok so let's do some flashbacks:

Arrive at KLIA super early it should be illegal...guess who I saw going through Immigration...the one and only JIMMY CHOO...haha we took same plane but of cos, Mr Fancy Feet was in First Class...
i think i shall fast forward the next 14 hours...

We arrived at London Heathrow Airport, comprising of 4 terminals and 2 more in construction...(it may be be BIG but it sure has some SLOW service...). it is estimated that when the new terminals are up and running, u will need approx. around 30mins just to walk from the Departure Hall to your respective Gates. And get this, London is the most EXPENSIVE city to live in...even British people agree...

We stay at Hyde Park, Inverness Terrace...the window we had didnt face any park or view but we had some very 'interesting' stuff to see none the less...(a couple making out for 20mins and another couple having sex....both with the windows wide open...i'm not kidding, i swear)

Our first visit was to Westminter via the Tube or Underground. We came out directly under Big Ben, then we walked until we came to St. James's Park (actual spelling)...if any of you reading this ever go to the UK and visit a park, bring along some bread crumbs or peanuts...the squirrels and the birds will just jump all over you...had a blast feeding them...but MAKE SURE YOUR IN THE FEEDING AREA!!!

Next, Going to Portobello Market...girls and antique hunters will love this place cos it caters to those sort of crowd...high fashion, street fashion, ghetto fashion, anything under the sun, you just might find it here...

One little thing that made me boil was a UK art show called SMART...they were doing batik (or batick for UK)...then the presenter said that batik was from Italy!!!! How the f*** can they do a show about art and not look up its references of that particular topic? Don't even know why...but this made me boil...

One thing I realised about stores in the UK: very neatly organized. For example, the magazine stands. Lower shelves = health and lifestyle, middle shelves = IT and fashion, and the top shelves = porn. Yes, its legal to sell porn in the UK (one of the only good things about the UK, actually...)

Soho is a must-go to see the sleazy side of life...its dotted with sex-shops and adult vid and book stores...one must learn where to look...i didnt manage to find many....haha....

Now, halfway through the trip, i began to realize i was actually bored. Castles and palaces not really my thing...so while my parents went to Windsor Castle and other places, i went out on my own. You can't really get lost as there is a Tube station almost anywhere....

Walking alone was way better too...

We also went to Greenwich where i stood on the Meridien line...pics and vids will be uploaded in later posts.

Ok getting bored about talking about London...i come to find that taking expensive holidays abroad are just not worth it unless you have the cash to keep going back. Once-in-a-lifetime equals easily-forgotten, for me at least.

Handphones get jazzed up...this one takes the (golden) cake...

Yes, its true...as we all can see, handphones are becoming more and more stylo-milo and oh-so-gotta-have...(not to mention the prices.... -.-)

Case in point: the new Motorola V8 Luxury Edition...thats right, the LUXURY Edition...

So sorry the picture became fuzzy...

Well anyway...have a look...it says RAZR 2 but its actually a V8 thats been spiced up...

Among some of the new drool-worthy features:

- Real / faux??? black snakeskin back cover

(PETA followers, sit down and shut up for once...!)

- 18k gold plated accents...

(making this phone the ultimate luxury phone to date in my opinion..)

- Laser-etched detailing on the navigation wheel...

(Caress and feel every inch of its golden surface...)

- EDGE Class 12 and GPRS Class 12

(basically, faster downloading!!!)

- Bright clear 2 inch+ LCD screens both inside and out@@@@

(No more squinting for those "cam-whore" moments...)

Ok, let me wipe the drool....just a sec...

*sighs*

Won't someone let me review a new handphone model???

Absolute jealousy for people who get to do reviews

Neways, directly after ICG Theory, i went to Genting with my aunt, God-aunt and her husband and her adorable baby son....


Genting ah...hmmm...nothing much has changed...dunno why so many people pack that place up all the time...but i guess it has its charms...



Hey, if u got the cash, get a room facing the mountains...(pssst! RM200+ a night...)



Okokok...pricey but for some, its worth waking up to see the mountains draped in misty fog...



Then open the window to a refreshingly (if somewhat biting...) cold blast of mountain air...

Singapore repeals law banning oral / anal sex


Yesterday, the Singapore legal system repealed a law banning oral and anal sex but these acts must still be performed at great discretion in private quarters. (1st was the SExpo...now this...)

Guess they felt the heat after openly-gay actor Ian McKellen of Lord of The Rings fame criticised Singapore for its close-mindedness.

Singapore is becoming the Asian Amsterdam but without the out-of-control drug abuse.

*Long time didnt post liao so just simply picked the most interesting news and posted it here...haha

The Power of the Wind

PETALING JAYA: Residents of Leisure Commerce Square witnessed a 'hair-raising' scene when the winds suddenly picked up strength and speed.

The winds picked up enough momentum to blow several of the big umbrellas near the Chinese hawker stalls. Chairs and even tables were overturned. Hair of all colors and lengths and styles went crazy as the wind whipped those follicles round and round and up and down.

The only regret I have is that i didnt manage to take a picture or video of that scene...

I was too busy enjoying 'the wind in the hair'. haha

There goes my privacy... T.T

If anyone in the Media Hub uses the toilet in the PR Workstation...here's a little warning:

USE BOTH THE LOCKS ON THE DOOR!!!!
Failure to do so and you will end up like me...halfway through a piss when the door opens and someone walks in (worse if its a chick..!).
Haiz...other than that, nothing much happened to me. Finished my two angles on the train crash report...thats good at least.
Oh yeah i drove through SS2 on my own...haha saw Jing and some other guy drive past in his car (thought got meeting... -.-) haha
Pretty uneventful day...
More coming up soon...
