went on hiatus for a while. sorry friends! was busy slacking and growing fat ever since i got back. which is DEADLY. oh well. my dad would go "do you know how expensive this is in london? you wont get to eat this there." haha. ok excuses. anw.. i know this is kinda late but merry xmas friends! hope everyone had a great time spending the holidays with their loved ones and friends.
have been back for slightly more than a week. spent some family time together.. but didn't really have any quality time with my mum.. mostly cos of our conflicting characters. yup i know. i should learn to give in. i was telling my bro that we tend to be more tolerent towards others than towards our family members. i guess its because we expect total forgiveness from them.
haven't been meeting up with much friends. hello pple.. meet up!! havent watch any movies yet. havent played MY GAME yet. (ie bball). havent shopped yet. havent touched any work yet. hahaha. the list goes on.
alright.. shall end here. will update again. happy holidays friends!

hear me gush
got back from prague yesterday noon. felt a tinge of sadness when i reached london. kinda miss reading the maps and taking the trams, and gushing openly everytime i see an architecture or a pretty sight. prague is simply gorgeous. christmas is such a big thing there! the street lightings are sooo pretty!! and huge christmas trees all over the city. oh and food! the potato dumplings are nice. and i tried pig's tongue (yucks). but it's not that bad. and the guys (actually only jonathan and big 2) are absolutely addicted to pork knuckles. the dough rolls with sugar, vanilla and cinnamon!! bohemia bagel!! chocalate peanut butter cake and cheesecake. i can still taste them!! sigh.. i forgot to try the roasted cinnamon peanuts :(
my bro's lousy digicam could only take a limited number of shots since most shots are taken in high resolutions.. thus most of the pics are with the guys. can't wait for them to upload the pics!
the trip was great. i was super hyper during all 4 days despite only sleeping for a total of 12 hours i think. bridge became our night activity in prague. it's really good to go on a trip with friends cos it makes you get to know them better. im glad that the 4 of us clicked well and everyone enjoyed prague. i think everyone has saw the different side of tai tik (who is affectionately known as dai dee or big 2). he is a silent joker. he has the ability to point out the simplest and most obvious things but make them sound super hilarious!!
good memories are meant to be treasured.. and im enjoying them while they are still fresh in my mind.. and this should keep me occupied before i return on sunday. im coming home =)

quote of the day
"This guy found a bottle on the ocean, and he opened it and out popped a genie, and he gave him three wishes. The guy wished for a million dollars, and poof! There was a million dollars. Then he wished for a convertible, and poof! There was a convertible. And then, he wished he could be irresistible to all women... poof! He turned into a box of chocolates."
