Just came back a while ago. Went to the town in manchester city with some new friends. Keung, a British Born Chinese(BBC) and Eric, a hong kong fella. Played pool with these two fella, and yea, they were darn good, especially the honky. Man. Or do i just suck at pool. Heh. Can't play pool for nuts.

Hm.. Went there by car. Keung stays in the same building as me, but his home is further south. North wales i think. He drives a citroen, and I must say, he's a darn good driver. His car is a two door, 1.1 litre dark blue hatchback kinda car. Well, here's the good part. He accelerates and changes his gears so smoothly and fast, it feels like it has a 2.5 litre engine. Yea. No kiddin. He's GOOD. He tried drifting before, and got caught by the british police. HEHEH. What a major bummer.

Paid 5 quid for the pool membership. For all of you who dunno, quid is the slang that they use instead of pounds. 1 pound = 1 quid. Pretty much the same thing. Paid a total of 9 pounds for today's game of pool. 9 x 2.8 = S$25.2
Its sick. The exchange rate.
I've calculated. I can only spend 12 quid a day. Yea. Gotta start being thrifty.

After that, we went to eat at a hong kong restaurant/cafe. Had char shu udon. Cost me 5 quid. Got a can of coke too. That another 1.2 quid. 6.2 quid = S$17.36

I HATE THE CURRENCY.

On the way back to the car, this beggar asked keung for money. We ignored him. Can't he get a job? I know I should at give him some coins as a Christian to show love for people less fortunate than me, but wouldn't that encourage him to beg for more? If everyone stop giving people like him money, he would find work to do to earn his keep, instead of relying on the pity of others. Anyways, that fella labelled keung "noddy". Dunno what the crap it means.

Did i mention? Keung has a BB gun. Its a total replica of an MP5. damn cool. It has a scope, that can be mounted on the real thing too. DAMN COOL. One of the stuff that singapore will never allow. Ya can't show it in public in the UK though. Might get shot by the police. But hey, its legal to own this kinda toy here. Its loud, and it shoots little plastic balls that usually has a velocity of 200 -300 metres a second. Painful when hit, but doesn't pierce the skin.

If singapore would allow these toys, I would buy. They have sniper rifles too. Cost around 800 pounds though. With all the modifications and add-ons, prolly will cost ya 1100 pounds = S$3080 .

Man. Imagaine owning ur own sniper rifle.
THey use these toys to play this game called airsoft. The plastic bullets cut thru air, but it ain't really soft. LOL. Go check it out.

# I'm a Christian. Anglican to be more precise. The traditional Christian. Christianity is not a religion, by the way. Its only a fact and way of life, but some people choose to live in delusion kinda like the matrix, or finally read the bible and realize the truth and becomes Christians. Rebuke me if I offend anyone, but a living God backs me. Hehe. Miracles beyond the doubt have happened. Cheers !
