so tired lately, been out all day, bringing parents around London and spending time with them. they are leaving today, night flight. time flies..seems like they're just here for 2 or 3 days. gonna miss them. will be going out soon to meet parents, so in the meantime, here i am, trying to blog. finally i managed to post the picture of my new hair. LOOK...what do you think? as for me, i still prefer the black, original one. actually it's not black, it's more to brownish and people don't believe that that's my original hair colour. duh..


The before and the after..

'jie' is damn sad today. something's really bothering him. i do not know how to help as i'm not very good in giving advice. i can listen but giving advice, i'm not really good in that.

6 July - first of all, congratulations to Nikki, she graduated today. went to the airport to pick my parents up and then checked into the hotel. what a coincidence, a friend of mine and his Mum are staying there too. later we, as in me and my parents had dinner with Nikki and her parents. dinner was great, Thanks.

7 July - it's my turn to graduate. went to the Wembley Conference Centre and thank God i managed to get myself a robe. and i rented it for £35. wasn't very excited about it though, but that's until i stepped into the auditorium. when the ceremony started, things started to flash in my head. been thinking a lot and i wished i had a paper and pen there, so that i can just wrote everything down. now i can't really recall what was i thinking at that time. gosh...talking about short-term memory lost. well see, first of all, i would really love to thank my parents, especially my Dad for sending me over to London to study. all the money that he earned, all gone because of me. thinking about it, i feel so bad and guilty and sorry. then i started to think about the past, the sweet memories and the hard time i had when i was here in London. arghh...i don't know how to put everything in a proper sentence. fine that's it.

had my pictures taken and i spent £42.95 for it. isn't that costly?! anyhow i'm stuck now, don't know what to write.

8 July - went to the wax museum, Madame Tussaud's. entrance ticket, £19.99 per person. there's nothing cheap here, ain't it? talking about art, isn't it amazing how people can actually made something (the wax) that looks so incredibly alike the real person that they're making? shit..do you understand what i'm actually talking about? alright sorry if you can't understand coz i have really bad vocab. later in the evening, had dinner with Nikki, my 'jie' and parents at Belgo. all of us had lobster meal, LOBSTER. yummy..but when the bill came, goodness gracious, £113++. and thanks to my Dad again, for the great dinner. he must be extremely broke now. how can he survive with a daughter like me?

guess what, i'm already in London. woohooo...i really miss this place, and now here i am. so happy and it's nice to be back here again. what a wonderful day. but the journey sucks. can't really sleep, don't eat much, headache, backpain, neckpain...but no jetlag. nice to meet Nikki again. it's so much fun.

talking bout that new look, i don't know what to say. at first, i find it quite fascinating. but later on that day itself, i found it damn 'ah lian'. the hair stylist suggested me to do this new technique of colouring, it's called two-toned, if i'm not mistaken. but it ended up with three tones: red, gold/blonde, brown. he said that this is the latest technique and i'm his fourth customer to do that. so i've been thinking, why not give it a try. well..now..i kinda regret it. will try to post a picture of the before and after the hairdo. there's nothing i can do now, but to learn to like it. would like to thank Karen, for fetching me there and waited for me for 2 1/2 hours. and pity Tracy, waited for us for an hour.

"i had a great time with you guys that night before i leave. Thanks and take care."

an hour later, i'll be taking the challenge to give myself a brand new look. i'll have my hair cut and coloured. i've never had my hair coloured professionally. so this is it. i have no idea what colour should i pick, so i'll just ask them to match one for me. hopefully it will not turned out to be very 'ah lian'.
