Summer holidays..

Last July I was home back in Malaysia stuffing myself with food -seafood, pasar food, hawker food, mamak stuff, u name it I ate it..

Find myself slowly 'vegetating' (to slowly grow) this July 2009. Got a few stuff done but overall I think I still have too much time at hand. Summer camp over in warcop for 2 weeks which was just awesome, a trip over to London to renew my passport and explore the city (which changed my mind about travelling alone which isn't fun) a 20 mile tab with Red and Kenny weeks ago which is goina follow by a boot run tomorrow why the hell do I always seem to agree to Red's suggestion of a 'workout' remains a mystery..

Fishing trip off Bangor yesterday wasn't too bad besides the fact that the fishes we caught theoretically costed us £5 each (£15 for the boat each and friggin Michael and Pokmang didn't catch anything) yielded 12 nice sized mackerels which became a part of an experiment later on as I never tried cooking mackerels before.. Ended up coating them in tumeric,curry powder,crushed peppercorns,fish sauce and milk before grilling them. End result - not a success nor a failure, edible namanya.. Thats why we guys catch and gut the fish while the women-kind cooks it. Symbiotic relations eh?

Badminton training intensified abit this past 2 weeks in preparation for a summer competition down in Dublin this coming saturday. Taking alot outha myself but wanna give it my best shot this time. Snooping around for a job as well recently. Could use some extra moolah for the trip to Canada (or even after it!) to get me through the summer smoothly. Tried tescos, the Red Panda but nope haven't heard from them since. Thanks to the hordes of teenagers/students like myself off the leash for summer all hunting for summer jobs. And to think that July's a lil late? U must be joking...Except for this chinese restaurant that a Vivian works in thats kinda facing a sortage of staff recently. So down I went after badminton, gear with me, sweaty like a pig to go ask for a part time job.. The fella was decent enough but I kinda regretted telling him I have an uncle down south who owns a restaurant as well.. which I think might be reflected as proud.. but hell I'll take any job offered to kill time and earn abit doing so - That miniture 'interview' went well enough I think so left my contact details and fingers crossed I'll have a job to kill time soon!
( but I didnt tell him I'll be away to Canada for 2 weeks next month ) Ah wth! as if I care...

Cbox announcement.

Sorry peeps, cbox has been removed temporarily due to some jack-ass stalker/spammer who evidently has too much time at hand and too little concern for others. Say what you want, but seriously, grow some balls will you?

101 uses of a man...
True enough some of them!

20 miles with 20 kilos on my back today left my shoulder a lil sore no doubt. Lisburn to Belfast and back with Red and Kenny. Did it in 7 hours plus a few detours around the woods. Got cars and buses and all don't want use.. use feet instead!

London...

Quick update.
In london at the moment, sharing an apartment with Julian and his gf Kye Li. Just got here today. In london because I've to visit the Malaysian High Commission tomorrow. Renew my passport lor.. Got plenty of time to kill tho since my flight back is on thursday so I guess I'll explore london abit. Last time I was here was like more than 5 years ago with my mom and siblings.. which also serves to explain the part when I got off the train from Stansted airport in Liverpool Street train station, - hadn't a clue where to go! eventually found my way to Julian's place in Kilburn. No hassles, complications did arise but solved anyways. Flipping phone chose to died on me when I got off the plane..
Well, I guess its the big city and me then!

Adventure update - plans to cycle down to Dublin from Belfast will carry on after all! Managed to find people as crazy (or determined) as me to pull it off. Its goina be Big Red, Kenny and me on the 11th of july. Which gives me 1 day to pack for the trip and run all possible last minute maintenance on my bike. What else do we live for?
