Hello from London!

I still can't believe that I'm actually on London ground!! I'm into my 2nd day here already. It's end of spring, but still pretty cold. Can't tell much yet since I've only got here yesterday noon. For the past month in Singapore, life had been really hectic, projects to complete, friends to meet, gatherings to go, stuffs to get and pack, blah blah blah, the list goes on. I was kept busy awake all night till my flight timing in the morning! I didn't had one last chance to sleep on my bed before I flew. That crept on me when I was on the plane. Pity pity. *Chuckles* Oh well...

London's 7 hours behind Singapore. It's morning here now. I woke up pretty early. The sky's already bright and felt like I've slept past the noon. Hahaha... it gets dark here late too. At 9 - 10pm, it's still pretty bright. Cool! But I doubt I'll enjoy winter as much when it comes. Brrrrrrr...

I landed at 12.15pm yesterday. By the time i got out of the customs, it's an hour later. And I had to try get my almost 30kg worth of baggages to my friend's place from the Heathrow Airport right up to Tooting Broadway Station. Phew! And I tell ya, it ain't easy alright! Stairs to climb and tubes to hop on and off. Good thing the peeps here are pretty helpful when I needed some help with my load. By the time I managed to get me and my baggaes in safe pieces to Tooting Broadway, it's already 3pm. Woo hoo~ What a way to go! It wasn't until near 4pm that I met up with my friend for he had something going on and couldn't come sooner. So I stood by the tube entrance looking at the locals, wooo yeah. I really need to get used to living in London. Too many cute guys about for my eyes to feast on. *chuckles*

So I spent my first day getting familiar with my friend's neighbourhood. Then hop on to some busses and tubes and went exploring about for a bit. *Yawns* Pretty tiring since I didn't sleep much on the plane, I tried hard to keep awake in the tubes. I like taking the bus rides. There's more you can see about as compared to the tubes.

Think I'm gonna go get a local number later if possible and some travel passes and get my ass moving about the central London. Hope to see something cheap, maybe like a good winter wear, at the flea marts later if I find one. Haha!

Welcome to London!

Broken Pieces... Pieces of Me...

It's been a month since me last blog entry. And to think that I ain't got much good news with what I'm about to blog.

I broke my BIG, precious, mirror this morning when I was looking into it. Haha, well, it's not that I'm so ugly that it stunned the mirror and broke it. More like the opposite, too stunned by my beauty. Ha! To think I can still joke about this now. Don't ya just love me to pieces? Haha...

It was almost as tall as I. Wider than I. Easily weighing a few kilograms. Richly brown broad frame with a thin golden lining. Handsome, grand sight. Costing a few hundred bucks. Thick mirror within the pretty frame. Now broken into pieces. Sigh. How clumsy of me to have brought it to such an unglory end. Dead broken. Shattered. Just like my heart. *giggles* Well at least I have the outer frame in its perfect one piece. Perhaps I'll use that to frame a nice piece of art work if any, or I can frame in another new mirror? But I do wonder if a broken mirror bids any bad omen? If there is, I rather not know. Besides that's [the bad omen] not really freaking me out, I'm somewhat feeling indifferent. But it pains my heart that I broke my mirror, now I wont have one to look into every day. Hmm, but my computer seems to be having some probs again. YES! AGAIN! Never ending again! Sigh. To add on to that, I'm behind schdule due to this and many other things that I shan't list. Talking about bad omen eh? Bah! I still ain't freaked out yet! Don't prove me wrong I tell ya!

So how on earth did I break such a BIG mirror? Well, I was resting the mirror against my cupboard. [I didnt had a place to hang my mirror up, so I place it on the floor against my cupboad] Next I was opening another cupboard beside that cupboard [Yes! I have quite a number of cupboards. Vainity]. The cupboard door sorta hit against the side of my mirror, and before I could stop it from sliding off, it hit onto the floor and *PANG* there you go. Ho ho ho... I saw many me in the mirror. Hey that reminds me of a song, Pieces of Me, by Ashlee Simpson

which I kinda like.

Pieces Of Me

On a Monday, I am waiting
Tuesday, I am fading
And by Wednesday, I can't sleep
Then the phone rings, I hear you
And the darkness is a clear view
Cuz you've come to rescue me

Fall... With you, I fall so fast
I can hardly catch my breath, I hope it lasts

[Chorus:]
Ohhhhh
It seems like I can finally rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhhh
It's as if you know me better than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me

I am moody, messy
I get restless, and it's senseless
How you never seem to care

When I'm angry, you listen
Make me happy it's a mission
And you won't stop til I'm there

Fall... Sometimes I fall so fast
When I hit that bottom
Crash, you're all I have

[Chorus:]
Ohhhhh
It seems like I can finally rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhhh
It's as if you known me better than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me

How do you know everything I'm about to say?
Am I that obvious?
And if it's written on my face...
I hope it never goes away... yeah

On a Monday, I am waiting
And by Tuesday, I am fading into your arms...
So I can breathe

[Chorus:]
Ohhhhh
It seems like I can finally rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhhh
It's as if you've know me better than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
Ohhhhh
I love how you can tell
Ohhhhh
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me...
