anyway been having dreams the last three days i've slept. haha. dreams abt singapore and like everyone. dun really rmbr wad happened in the first two nights. but yesternight....i woke up remembering what happened. but after i brush my teeth and washed up...guess what?? i FORGOT. weee.
but i do rmbr one person that appeared in that dream. haha. WEN HSIN!
alrighty...anyway everything's still kinda slow moving...but everyday is a new experience...like the food and shopping and stuff. my goodness. DUN COME TO ENGLAND FOR A SHOPPING HOLIDAY. YOU'LL GO BACK SINGAPORE WITH YOUR POCKETS EMPTY...
like...shopping at this oriential supermarket. in a warehouse. so weird huh. they stock up on instant noodles, various sauces and condiments, fresh fruits and vegetables, poultry, stuff like that. my aunt bought one trolley of groceries. IT COST LIKE £118!? (that's abt $300)...yea. get the picture...like TOOT...nehneh (ooops...that's one million and three...[heh heh sorry. inside joke LOL...])
the supermarkets sell alot of new stuff (not really new...just stuff i nvr see in singapore before. haha.). i pop by mark and spencers yesterday. they had lots of endearing and sweet desserts like strawberry trifle (which is super yummy by the way...like custard and whipped cream with jam at the bottom), freshly baked pastries like SCONES (which taste real wicked with clotted cream and jam), softdrinks like tango orange. haha. its a fantastic experience really. and oh...a small box of fresh cut melons (called melon medley, comprises honeydew, rockmelon, watermelon...) cost like £3.99. which is like abt $10. CRAZEEE....everything is so dam expensive.
today traveled to romford with aunt, mummie and sis. went to this shopping centre that was super big. i saw men stripping off in the car park as they walked. guess their excuse its that its summer. anyway...ate at this chicken grill place. forgot the name. some portugese name. anyway basically everything is chicken...and u can like choose how u want it done. from lemon herb to medium to hot to extra hot. its a spice-o-meter. haha quite cool. their secret sauce is made frm peri peri. this chilli that the restaurant says provides good vitamins, taste, etc, and is a good aphrodisiac. the menu added: PLEASE WAIT TILL YOU GET HOME FOLKS! haha. quite funny. i ordered half chicken with chips and spicy rice. it was super nice and yummy. at this rate, growing fat is without question. sigh. die liao.
most restaurants also serve drinks that are BOTTOMLESS. meaning freee-flow. haha. so nice. i love this. cos i get to drink more. haha.
and my parents decided not to join the club. too expensive. however i am anxiously hoping my trials will go alright tmr and i can enter the lawn tennis club thing.
ooo and my dad's got a job. same company. but requires him to travel to up north frequently (like say once or twice a week). north wld be like manchester area. he will have this traveling shit to do for at least the first six months. means he'll hav less time to spend with us when work starts. but we are happie. at least he's got a job for now. we'll work out the rest later.
and the house we are buying. its super neat and super homely. haha. i cant wait to like move in or smth. the front has a little driveway and a tree. haha. the tree's beautiful. everything has this vv classic english look. haha. and a garden at the back too. Wooo.
been talking to my grandparents quite abit. they seem happier that my family is here, and i am glad for them. my grandad is blind and partially deaf. so its pretty sad and terrible. but i can talk to him (cos he speaks cantonese...unlike my granny who only speaks hakka)...and i like talk and talk. listened. then like took his hand and asked him to feel my CURLY HAIR, my face, my arm. haha. and he was like telling me abt being proud that i hav many frens in singapore (cos my dad told him abt the sending off). and frm that he can tell that i am a nice person and all. i jus kept saying orh. and i told him that i missed my frens so so much. he wants vv much to see me succeed academically. and i guess i got smth to drive me on now.
talking to my grandma is quite different. haha. she hit me while laughing once cos i kept saying orh though i dun understand her. hahaha. so funnny. she's so cute and amusing. haha. but she can understand cantonese see. so we can talk abit. and i help her out with the cooking and all. ahaha. her dishes are vv nice. and she grows her own veggies in the garden. like xiao bai cai.
cant wait to play tennis tmr actually.
and u know...first time i see on the road, motorists giving way to one another. amazing.
and oh. patrick viera has joined JUVENTUS. HAHA EAT THAT MALCOLM. TOLD YA MAN. hahaha.
