nothing-in-nottingham, PFFT
Recently I went to Nottingham for a day, to.. SHOP. Surprisingly enough, Nottingham's stuff were really SO CHEAP. And everyone there dresses so kookily, I was tempted to ask them where they got all their clothes from. I was so happy to see one of them at the store I went to visit, so I saved myself the embarrassment of having to ask :)
It was amazing. Super duper cheap stuff seriously. We went to 3 stores; Cow, Vintage Warehouse and Wild (if only we had more time...) A mountainous amount of clothes and bags, lines and lines of shoes and boots, buckets of braces and ties! IT WAS AMAZING.
I didn't buy THAT MUCH, my friend had like 4 bags and spent like £150. HAHA! THANK YOU JIE SHI FOR BEING CAMERAWOMAN AND FOR ORGANISING THE WHOLE THING!
To show you how cheap everything was, here's a whole price list of what I bought.

emo maksimum
May Yeng, Lato, Mimi and Liz
You are my pillars, my firm foundation. We've been through so much together and I've loved every moment of it, whether good or bad. Although we don't talk as much now, it doesn't really seem to matter. Why? Cos I know when we see each other, it's like we were never apart in the first place. We may all have changed in more ways than one, but we're still the same people.
Bernard and Jen
I love you two more than I seem to show it. You are the ones I come home to after a horrible day, cheering me up with your cooking or your korean videos :) I may be calculative and fixate on petty things a lot of the time. I'm sorry and I am more than grateful to have you putting up with me all the time.
Fazril
You are so big, you get a category of your own. You are so big, I thought you were scary before. You are so big, but you are the only one I know with such a small ego. You are so big, but God still gave you a heart twice as big. You are so big, you are my big friendly giant and I hug you tait tait :)
Hidzuan, Zafie and Chia Hsien
Ladders and vibrations, stress and slaps. You guys are my snow days. You are my 'days off from work'. You are my summer holidays. You're my Saturdays. Thanks for everything and here's to a lot more memories to come :)

the day london stood still
Have you ever had those kind of dreams, where you wake up into another dream and then another and another? Well, yesterday, that's exactly how i felt, except it really wasn't a dream (although it sure felt like one). I was dreading school and feeling absobloominutely knackered after such a hectic weekend. First came the text messages, "eh got school ah?" and "all tube and bus not working wei". Then, came the highly anticipated email about cancelled lectures, followed by excited texts from my even MORE excited friends.
I walked outside and immediately smelled something different in the air. I didn't hear the sound of drilling from the water works outside my house, I didn't hear the sound of police cars speeding by. Usually I would put on my iPod to drown out the dreary sounds of London, but yesterday, that didn't seem necessary anymore. I wanted to listen to people who I'd normally roll my eyes at, like those stupid tourists who walk so damn slow during rush hour.
Businesses were predicted to lose about 2 billion pounds in total. Trains and planes, buses and tubes were all delayed. Schools were closed.
WHO. CARES.
I think we all needed a snow day. I didn't once think about the stupid credit crunch. I didn't think about homework. Why? Because it was okay not to do anything productive. It was okay to look silly and bring your skis to Hyde Park. It was okay to bring out the bob sleds, even though it was so cold your toes could fall off. It was okay to turn off your cell, so you could take your children out because you come home past their bedtime and leave for work before they're up for breakfast. No need for justification, no need to make excuses. It was okay.
Yesterday, Londoners put their feet up and went outside to play just like children do. Both young and old delighted in the splendour of this winter wonderland, making adult and child no different from one another.
I wouldn't ask for another snow day for the fear of losing memory of such a perfect day.
To the person God put in charge for the weather, thanks for the day off, whoever you are!
