that bobby's a prick


so all this terrorist hoohah on my street ya?
On the way home after work and i walked to the corden to ask to be let in but the PRICK of a police refused to let me in!

Prick: "you cant go in".
Me: "but i live 2 doors from this corden!"
Prick: "no you cant go in"

All this time, other people were being led by other policemen to their doorsteps & this Prick of an ass refuses to even negotiate with me. So i was standing there fuming like mad before i went up to the Prick and said:"look, people on the opposite row got home and there's 2 other people walking from the other direction!!!!!!"

Obviously i irritated him and he said:"will you just bear with me for a minute?" Then another policeman came along and they blabbered something & said it's ok for me to go to my unit. I AM SOOOOO FUMING MAD WITH THAT PRICK! *evil squint* I so want to grab some eggs and smash it into him.

ARGHS

So apparently a man suspected to be a 5th bombers was arrested at a unit 2 units away from my block... way too close for comfort. At least it's good news that they've arrested all the other 4 bombers too.

5 days 4 nights in Prague


ain't the best thing to happen when it's my mum i'm travelling with + considering how very last minute the trip was, i think i almost wanted to throw myself over Charles Bridge. Will update tomorrow, when mum's gone & when i get back from work. Yes, work.

graduation photos here

there's no need to sign in, just click on 'view pictures'

5 times at close range!

A suspect was chased by police and when they caught up with him, the cop took his automatic pistol and pumped 5 shots into the suspect. Poor guy... must be dead as can be.

yes i'm safe: got a nice pink trimming, no fur though


too tired to blog, so i'll share my favourite photo of the day.

just one more thing:
you who made the snide remark about my shoes?
well you know what: mum just bought me another pair of shoes yesterday, so you can just eat your words.

24 and counting = I really need more feet

The current count is 22 pairs of shoes but officially, it shoud be 24 (but i really don't want to count in 2 pairs of trashy slippers). Out of the 22, at least 4 are going to be thrown-out / left behind / donated. Of course i wish i could keep every single pair but but...

I have a headache just looking at them all lined up. I dont even want to start thinking on how to get my shoes back home, without my mum flipping! What makes it seem worse is that i just bought another 2 pairs of shoes today. *gulp* The only good news is that the 2 new pairs are part of the 22.....

I need help!!! How am i going to bring them back without my mum ever finding out i have sooooooooo many?!!

is it just willpower?

or that this year's summer sale just ain't good enough. It's coming to the end of the massive sales, and i havent bought anything major! The only thing i got on sale was a 9.99 pair of Gap jeans that was originally 45.90. That's it....ok wait, I got a Paul Smith wallet for Dave. That doesn't really count 'cos it's not for me.
*sigh*
think i'm just in a whiney mood.

too hot to write

so i do quiz:

we can't go out so we eat!

After the bombing we were told to stay in and Friday+Saturday tv was boring, which resulted in us raiding our kitchen and coming up with ways to get rid of our massive food pile. Ideas came up but as with every dish you want to cook, you realise u need other ingrediants... so to Tesco + Thai store we went to grab the other bits and bobs to make some dumplings from scratch.

chive+scallop+water chesnut wonton

pork+onion+cabbage+chive+water chestnut dumpling

fried dumpling, fried wonton and dumplings cooked gyoza style. (dumpling mania was for our lunch and we munched on it while we prepared for a bbq for just me+sis )

bbq fanfare: marshmellow, fatty pork, asparagus, chicken satay

tiny bbq on my tiny balcony but it works!

toasted marshmellow vs sponge hand from live 8

I ate and ate and ate. Thinking about it, i've been eating lots for like 3 days straight. Yesterday i had 1 dish of dimsum & 1 mango pudding for lunch, then a crayfish salad + ham & cheese crossiant for tea, then a small pack of crisps + a bread & butter pudding and finally, 2 samosas, some papadum and 1 chapatti + chutney.

*burp*

think i need to detox soon.

it's barely over

18:35 hours
My tv has been turned on since 10am.
As i watch the carnage unfold before my eyes over and over again, i feel helpless. yes, i know what's happening, but from my living room, everything just seems quieter and nothing's happened. The police sirens constantly remind me that things are not alright.

everything's so surreal

to all my friends who called, smsed or got me on msn, thank you for your concern. I really feel for those who have perished, who got hurt and the thousands of Londoners who have to walk a long, long way home.

explosion on bus photos


the latest photo released of the bus that was bombed. Previously it was only the back photo that was shown but now the police has allowed a new photo to be taken. It really shows the amount of damage done.

For now, me+sis are preparing for the worst. We don't have to worry about food as our kitchen is lik a provision shop but we've filled up bottles with water, dug out our first aid kit, prepared portable radios and a tiny but workable torchlight. Wish us luck that we'll not have to use them.

2 confirmed dead at Algate station

BBC has reporters at hospitals all over and they showed the paramedics getting the injured into the hospital. One was very badly burnt and the paramedic was giving chest compressions all the time when they were loading him off the ambulance....

slightly trumatized now

London under terrorist attack

Scotland Yard has issued to BBC News that the attacks are by the Al Qaeda.

Also, mobile phone networks are down as the mobile providers give priority to rescue teams. I think it's more of they are taking precautions to prevent anymore bombs being set of by mobile phones. For now, i can't call out on my mobile and i can't get Pennapa on the phone! *worried*

LONDON BUSES SUSPENDED THROUGH ENTIRE ZONE 1


I snapped this picture off my tv and you can just see the distinct blue London bus seats and the orange poles sticking out of a roof that no longer exists.

we have reports of controlled explosions about to happen

what the hell is a controlled explosion???

BBC News Live has more reports of bombs about to go off in streets all over London. WHO ARE THESE HORRIBLE PEOPLE?
