Its winter now.. Thats what my sister said. Keung too. Apparantly, autumn has passed. Heyhey, I didn't know it passed so fast. The trees didn't even all turn yellow.
Anyways, the temperature here is dropping. Its dropping lower everyday. HMm. Lets see, whats the temperature now? Hm. Its 5 deg celcius. OOo. Chilly. Its gonna be -2 at night tommorrow. Yea. MINUS 2. COOL. Literally.
Tonight's a Tuesday. I've a test coming up on Thursday. SIgh. I'm gonna study for it now. Not gonna repeat the same mistakes like in poly. In poly, I only start studying one night before the test. Managed to pass everything though. Sigh. But I'm not looking for a pass this time, I'm looking for First Class Honors. Cuz God gave me this chance. Scoring 2.0 for GPA and still getting 13850 pounds of free education per year. Thats almost S$42,000 a year. British Visa Centre was shocked back in Singapore that I could get the scholarship, they even phoned the scholarship provider. Heh. Nope. I'm not revealing any info.
Adding on to that, I'm exempted from the National Service. Heh. 2 years saved. One in a million case. Hehe. How can two events complement each other so well? My scholarship and the exemption of the army.
Praise the Lord.
Hehe. That aside, I'm reminiscing my fond memories when I was back in SG. UK ain't as beautiful as you'd imagined. Its a shithole here. Yeaps. Not safe at all. Boring place with too many clubs. Crappy food. Slow working and administration speed.. ETC.
HeyHEY! Here are some photos of my pals ! Pricks, Assholes , Losers & Shit. PALS. Yeaps. I love them. THey're just made up of the same lame juice I'm made of. YEA!

WOOOT. Er. Cherie's on the other side, leo.

Hehe. Yeaps. More of those two here:

Looks dangerous & stupid.
^%$&^%#$ piece of crap. Wasted one bait on *him*
Here's a cute picture:

He made short work of the chocolate.
Yeaps. These pics you've just seen are random pics in my handphone. :)
Here are some pics taken here in Manchester:

I AM STUDYING. THE MOON JUST TURNED BLUE.
The voodoo prince taking a bungee into my hot cup of coffee.
Hm. Why would I do such a sadistic act? Puttin him in danger like that.
Hm. I guess I wanted to let him try bungee.
Random.

UPDATES!!!!!!
Heyhey.. Was lazy to update my blog.. Anyways, to keep ya guys informed of my rants and tiddlings in the UK, I have to blog. Heheh.
Anyways, here are some pictures of stuff.
This is keung's MP5. Yes, it is an authentic replica. It fires 10 rounds a second. Hm. Not bad eh?
Doesn't fire real bullets though. Fires plastic ones. Could leave blisters on ur skin if its shot straight on. HMm. I want those in SG!
I should have gotten him to attach the scope.
This is my updated version of my sax. Optimised setup for my current emboucure and breath support.
Looks normal, but the mouthpiece and ligature there costs me about 380 bucks. Yeap. SG dollars. Selmer S80 D-facing mouthpiece with a Rovner IRL-Eddie Daniels MK2 Ligature.
They're NEW! Bought an instrument stand too. Cost me almost 500 bucks, all these stuff that I bought.
This is my room at present state. There ain't nothing interesting here.
Its boring! Living in a cell like this.
Hm. UK education huh.
Well, lets see, whats happened for the past few days?
Its just school, badminton, and gym.
Hey! Last Sunday I went bowling and met some new peeps. Met three gals. Two from China, one from Hong Kong. Jennifer, Queena, and Cherri. Hm. Sat Will's car there. Man. He's a slow driver. But he's a safe one though. Anyways, Queena was buggin me to teach her how to bowl properly the whole time. Hmm. I talked to her the most outta the three. Well, needless to say, she was the prettiest of cuz. Whahahha. But no, nothing outta the extrordinary. Haha.. The two other guys thought I had some kinda "thing" going on with her. Heh heh. What can I say, I'm just good at flirting. Just jokin. Hee hee.
Three guys, three gals. Looks like a triple date. LOL. Nothing of that sort, I assure. Went to play pool after that.
Well, to update the band peeps, I've found a band here to play in. Apparantly, I can join the band here if the conductor allows me to. The big band is great. The Wind Band's er... not that good. Well, its playing reminds me of when I was in Victoria School. Great for secondary school standard, probably Gold with Honors standards, but lacking the flexibility to shape notes individually. I'd prefer to join the big band. JAZZ BAND! Thats what I like. But I dunno how to play proper jazz.
Hmm. Friends and family, hope you peeps are getting on fine. I've a few friends confiding with me about the crappy lifestyle they lead now. Count your blessings!! Not your misfortunes. All of my friends(tats you) are born with a normal body, in a family with a roof above their heads.
Don't worry, be happy! Cuz optimism solves problems. Pessimism can't.
I miss my bands in SG. But I love the variety of musical equipment and accessories here. Can't be compared to SG.
I miss my skates. I miss the warm weather.
It was colder today. At 8.30 am, it was around 7 deg celcius. Can't even eat my apple properly without my hand growing number by the minute. Its the wind that sends chill to ur bone. No such thing as T-shirt and jeans outside, here in Salford. I did the "breath test" to test the coldness. Breathe out warm air. Lotsa mist coming out of me mouth. Yeap. Its cold and damp.
The trees are turning yellow and red.
Here a pic.
Its turning yellow.. Yeaps. Now's the transition time of summer to autuum.
KK! Gonna sleep now.

A car ride. Back from ASDA. Its keung's car!
Its been awhile since I updated my blog..
Hmm. Been busy with stuff lat week, had many programmes on. Hehe. Anyways, I had a BBQ and a steamboat party last week. Been to play badminton twice too. Went to the Chinese Hypermarket, and got busy with tutorials and lectures, whats more, I still meddling around with the school administration. They haven't uploaded a proper timetable schedule for each individual yet.
SIgh. They just love to do things slow.
ANyways, its not really an excuse not to keep ya guys updated. Yeaps. SOrry bout that. I'm just making excuses for my laziness. Oh well.
Anyways, I've been trying to eat more nowadays. Its said that gals grow fat and guys grow thin when they come to a colder place. Man. If that's true, I need to EAT!
Yea. I'm having my chocolate cheesecake now. Heh eh. Just the nice fattening stuff. Yikes. I might become overweight ! Yea right. With my kinda metabolism, i even tried 5 meals a day and only gain 1 kg at the end of the month. Pathetic.
I wonder where do all those food go to? To my blabbering? Being lame requires lots of energy. Imagine the body has to consume food, to supply the brain with so much brain power to generate lameness to throw one off his feet.
Hmm. That should explain why. HMPH. I've eaten half the cake already. Thats fast. It costs me 9 bucks in SG currency. The cakes are cheap here. Yeaps. Its a 1 kg cake though. Just nice for me. Hm. Might be a li heavier than that.
I finally did my laundry today. Put a whole full load of my clothes in the tub there. 3 weeks worth of worn clothes. Imagine how much clothes there are. Cost me 1.70 quid for washing. Thats equal to s$5.10. Washed for 45 minutes. Heh. I did my laundry in the wee hours of the morn. Started at 2, ended up at 4+, almost 5 am. WHahahaha. BALDS BECAME A HYPER WASH ENTHUSIAST. Nah. Its just its saturday. Nothing else to do.
The dryer is a stupid machine. It mistakes 10 p for some higher amt. I think 1 pound? So i get 99 mins (which is the max) of drying for like 20 p. WHAHAH. What a stupid manufacturing mistake. DUMB DUMBS.
MORE ON LAST WEEK>>>
My computer crashed. Yeaps. Thats one of the reasons I didn't blog. Well, it crashed cuz i did something real dumb. My icons didn't have a picture on it. The desktop icons i mean. And I thought, they look ugly. I didn't know what I did to remove the display settings, so i did a rollback on my operating system.
And voila ! It hanged while doing a rollback. So i switched it off. Next thing i knew, I mistakening did a destructive rollback. Meaning it affects the internal engines of the windows system.
Haha. There goes windows. Nope it doesn't detect windows after that. GONE. So i reinstalled windows with keung's windows CD, on a partitioned harddrive, then reinstalled windows with whatever's left of my OS. Well, i mananged to get my drivers and default settings back, but all my programs are gone. LOL. Tragic.
I said many things went on last week yur?
Yeaps. There was an accident in the car i sat in. Another BBC friend, probably had some issues with his social life, maybe. Dunno. So the group of me and the BBCs went to get some air, at the pool parlor. (Smoky air? lol :P) ANyways, it was raining and the road was slippery. Though he had anti-brakelock system(ABS), he was still going too fast. No worriesm MOM and DAD, its just a small lane that he sped. Anyways, he made a sharp turn at 40 miles an hour, and lost grip on the road. Car skidded. The wheel in front hit the kerb there it was. A broken down car. Extent of damage? MASSIVE. The entire front left axel was smashed, leaving a car that could be moved at all. For all those who dunno about cars, its the bar thingy that holds the wheels together, at the bottom of the car. The bar thingy that connected the two front wheels together.
Anyways, it wasn't a very good night. Freezing cold out there. Probably 8 degrees, from experience from the BBC. My feet felt cold even though i was wearing my steel toe leather boots.
LOL. Whahahh. Yea. Many many things went on. Interesting week.
I'll try to blog daily from now on. Hehe.
