I've offically turned down the job at BS! 2 things, pay.. they only
offered me £3.5k more than my pay, making it not affordable.
2 social life! I have lack of it already and it will be more dire!

- Nice weather and Hens
Yesterday we went to Jenny's Hen night, a nice relaxing massage in a
spa and a nice dinner in the hotel restaurant. It was a bit
expensive, but was a good day out.
The weather is so nice these few days., boiling point! We are having a
BBQ today :D

- Where have I been?
Highs and lows of
the end of April beginning of May
As you may
have
noticed I've been very quiet in the last few weeks not
because I
cannot
be bothered, just cos I've been mega busy!
Weekend after the
ash cloud disrupted my trip to TO I went to visit the girls in
Bournemouth. We had a brill time cockle picking... will post some photos.
During that
week
I went to the Europa semi finals home leg for Fulham and we won!! The
biggest thrill for a long long time!!
Weekend
after
that we had Winnie and Alan's wedding... ermm.... Lets leave that convo
for another day :S
Come
this week...
Wed 12th May, my bro and I set out for our European
adventure
the
final against Athletico Madrid! BUT.... It was not to be.. Fulham lost in
extra time with 3 mins to go... but you know what? We put up a good fight
and the ending didn't hurt so bad... now for bigger and better things in
next season!
Bring on World Cup 12th June!

- All ashed out
Poor old me, after all the planning for Toronto my flight got
cancelled. after about 6 days of stressfulness.... thing is they opened
airspace after my flight cancelled, so... all the rest of the gang got
o go to Toronto. They arrived not long ago. Very
dissapointed and gutted. As Martin was saying, the
feeling is worse than when being dumped :(

- Quiet Saturday
This is a quiet Saturday. Volcano Eyjafjallajokull in Icelad
has erupted this week, sending a volcanic dust cloud over the UK to
begin with on Thursday and now the rest of Europe has been effected.
So all airspace is closed, therefore total silence in
Hounslow, really eerie. The Toronto surprise may not go
ahead if we dont make it to Toronto, so fingers crossed as we've been
planning for ages for this. Could this trip be jixed?

- The Hens went mad :D
Yesterday
we had Winnie's hen do. It started with Lomei, Lai and I
decorating the room. I think we had a load of fun doing that
:D We then went on to meet the others 12 in total for a
bollywood dance. After the energetic dance we paraded Winnie
through London in a Pink feather boa. The we went on for
drinks at On anon. Being very tipsy we all went on to Chez
Gerad for dinner. Food was lovely except I was feeling sick
at this point. After dinner conversations were an eye opening
:S but loadsa laughs.
Today woke up early, went for a walk with Oscar. We took him to the
high street, he didn't bark at many people.... very good boy.... he's
such a darling... love him to bits!

etc, but it made me feel worse, now day 3 at home and hope I can be
well for Winnie's hen do on Saturday!
Keeping an eye on Oscar via webcam, how cool is technology!

Wolfsburg match on Thursday night, Fulham have a narrow lead for 2-1.
Having a relaxing few
days now. Jane will be back from her travels later today and
will stay for two nights before she leaves for China.
Last night I upgraded the firmware on my iPhone to 3.1.2, then
jailbroke and unlocked it :D Have a few cool themes too!

- Easter soon
Weekend was physically tiring as well. Went from Trinh's to
Alex's Karaoke do, got home at 6.55am and then got woken by Jane at
10.45am :( We had a wonderful day at Bicester. Jane made me
dinner.
Yesterday was Jane and Cherry's last day, we had drinks for Cherry and
then went to move Janes stuff over here... No way is Janes luggauge all
getting on her flight!
I'm gonna really miss Jane and Co when they leave, no more coffee
breaks :(
One more day till the long Easter Weekend, I've been waiting a while
for a break.
Next weekend is Winnies' Hen Do, the week after final prep at her
house, then week after is .... guess ? :D

Feeling energized from the gym! Living room is all set up now!
Only low feeling is no response from D, oh well another one bites the
dust!
Tomorrow means Trinh's, then Alex's birthday, then promised Jane I
would take her to Bicester on Sunday.

00.14
And guess what again? yes past midnight! been busy painting the living
room again, I think another day before we are done in the front.
I'm off to a HR conference at Twickenham rugby ground
tomorrow.
Must check TFL now to see how long it takes on 281, its been
so
long since I've been on that route. Should take approx 1 hour door to
door. I lent Jacqui my schedule today and now I don't have a
copy! Bugger!
I've met on eHarmony someone who's seems quite interesting, but I guess
we don't count our chickens, so will sit tight before I jump to any
conclusions.
Ok to bed now!
23.34 - Wow nearly 24 hours from my last post
Been at Twickenham Stadium today in a HR conference, the last session
was on energy... I had none :( Two more days.... no T-Mobile connection
in there :(
Got another message from D on eHarmony today, I gues I signed up to the
site to meet someone ... but feeling kinda awkward now that he's
friends with some on my friends on FB. He invited me to go
and
play golf... but I'm gonna take it slower... would feel too shy to meet
with him "and" his friends.

- St Patricks Day
Happy
St Patricks Day! It's a big event at work, people going out
and
Merchandising, wearing green t-shirts and silly hats!!
We've had the living room floor relaid. We now have real wood
floor. Gotta talk to the builder tomorrow about the sides,
cos
there is some gaps. Got some nice paint to paint the living room..
hopefully get that started this weekend too. Once that is all
done then we can bring all the furniture back in.
Going to pop down to Bournemouth tomorrow :D Have to remember the
easter eggs for the girls :D Reckon I will come home on early
Saturday.
Today
I
realized that gym guy is no longer in the UK :( he has gone
on international assignment. My motivation to go to the gym is
gone.... Or possibly i work hard to see him again??? Could be 6 months
could be a year or two ... Very sad day....

- I'm tired & I have a moaning mother
Last night we went out to celebrate Stephens birthday.
Stephen is
so silly, and thought no one turned up for his birthday so he made Kit
and I meet him in china town for us to find out that Yoyo and co were
all in Guanabara eating and waiting! Then came the palava of
what to do after, I think the other guys who failed to turn up to the
dinner were really out of order. Their intention was not to
come
out for Stephen birthday, but the intention to go to dry square.
But yt they made Stephen feel bad for not going.
Anyhow we
had a brilliant time back in Bow, played 789 and ended up drinking way
too much....
This morning I have a moaning mother, saying we didn't take her out for
mothers day etc. Thing is we asked her what she wanted to do
the
other day and she responded KFC. Now I we are being moaned
at!
God can't please her at all!

- Lost
Today
I
had to call the agent to cancel on the interview tomorrow.
I think I don't really want the interview at all, but can't
seem to get out of it now. I have talked them into giving me
a phone interview so that I don't need make my way all the way to
Bermonsey.
Went to Poundland after work to find more hen stuff for Winnie's party!
Spent another £5. Went to look for a powerchimp for
Stephen, but they had none, so got him a car charger instead.
Cheap and cheerful, but it's the thought that counts!
They dyed the lake at work Green for St Patricks Day preparation.
Keeping an eye on the football atm, Fulham are losing 2-1 to Juventus.
Lets keep our fingers crossed for the Whites (who are
wearing
red today). Not good 3-1 in the end. Early night
tonight I
think.

- Blast from the past
Just had a lovely conversation with a really old friend! He
is
now married with a kid. Defo one of the few good men I know
:D
still on the high of buying a new bag :D Gotta go pick up a
birthday present for Uncle tomorrow. Dinner on Friday and
maybe
mah jong.
Agent called me today and said he had set up a interview for me, for
this job in Bermonsey. I dont think I'm quite ready for an
interview yet. I've not recieved the email, I'm guessing my
hotmail has blocked it again. How to get out of the interview?

- I fell in LOVE
I
went shopping after work with Jane and Cherry. We went to
Westfields,
the aim was to go bag shopping with Jane. I walked out with a
handbag
too! I could not resist it!
I had my eye on this bag for a long time, but never got round to buying
it! Today I thought, I got a bonus this month and had a
really
tough month so I deserve it!

- The end
Finally an end to the palava! Written warning on record for 6
months. Not bad, but for something I didn't recall saying!???
Went to see an agent today, just to see what is out there on
the
market. The guy was quite cool a boarder like moi, but seemed
more extreme.
Can't make Bournemouth this weekend as it's Mothers day! Will
attempt next week. Possibly work from Bournemouth on Friday
to
beat the traffic.

- Chill day
Today I met LM for lunch, had a really good chilled out chat, talked
about everything under the sun.. There was no other ulterior
motive which is so relaxing! Went round Chinatown to look for
snacks after, and then tube and replacement bus service home.
The replacement bus service was shambles, there was too many
people with luggage to get onto the bus. It was so crowded
people were standing on the upper deck, but I guess it got me home!
The game yesterday was a draw, so must go to replay away, not good for
a team who's no good away. The crowd was fun yesterday, the
seats
we were at were COLD!
I added a comment box to this site, I really should add a site counter
too, to see if anyone is actually reading this.
Must take some pics soon to spice this blog up a bit. May go
visit the Yuen's in Bournemouth this coming weekend, get away from
London.

Why am I still up? Well let me tell you what I got up to.
Today
started an emotional roller coaster. Got a letter in the post
and
was not good news, but hey... hopefully it will be the end of any news!
After working (worked from home), went out to Dinner at a Korean place
called Assa, the food was brilliant and the pricing was even better.
After dinner we went over to the cousins and played Mah Jong, and you
guessed it! My luck has not changed, I lost money. But you
know
what? It kept my mind off things and I had a good time :D
Best sleep now as we have the Fulham v Tottenham FA Cup Quarter Final
tomorrow.

- Another Month
Another week has gone by, what did I get up to?
Thursday
gone, Fulham
got through to the next round of the Europa League.
Barbara
left on Friday/Saturday. I learnt so much from this young
lady in
a
few days. I'm going to be so sad when Jane and Cherry leave :(
Saturday had two get togethers for both wedding "One" and wedding
"Two".
The run down of wedding One was very good and organized.
The wedding Two get together was just a get together, hardly
any
wedding discussion, apart from bride showing us all her
dress. I
guess the wedding is a bit far off. I asked for a lift home,
now
I wished I never, turned out to be a massive palava, wish we didn't
have so many get togethers. The more we all get together, the
more I just can't wait for this year to end.
I am moping around waiting for the results to D-Day! Which I
just got an email that it is tomorrow 11.30. Will see what
will
happen. Fingers crossed.

This weekend has been a quiet one, been just moping around in my PJs.
Have things to think about, have things not to do.... been
kinda
good. Next weekend will be a busy one so it's good that this
one

Fulham v Brum City today - 2-1, first goal for Brum was an own goal, so
if you think about it Brum didn't score :P

Hopefully things will get better, they cant get any worse can
they?
Went to see Fulham again yesterday, was a Europa game which they kinda
won 2-1, the Donetsk team made an away goal, so must count it as a draw
I guess.

Last night was.....heavy!
Woke today, and I am still really tired. KFC brunch, Yum Yum!
Watching Greys Anatomy and the funniest thing said was "Wow,
trauma room Barbie!" at Little Greys new hair colour! Hahahaaa...
The Winter Olympics is in day 2!! I missed all of day one? Nvm, the
board events are not starting till the 15th, cannot wait to see Shaun
White try the "Double McTwist 1260" on the half pipe, think he will win
gold again?? White FTW!
Why do I feel the need to log my everyday activities? I think it's the
twittering on twitter and updates on FB over the last few years... I
think about 3 years to be precise. Do you really need to be
on FB
to have friends? and are friends on FB real freinds?
I've
had about 1 week of no FB, and you know what? my email in box is
actually smaller than it used to be. I have less people to
answer
to and altogether my life is quieter. I will see how much
longer
I can go without. Funny though, people who used to speak to
me on
msn have also stopped speaking to me cos I'm not on FB anymore....
Today is New Years Eve on the Chinese lunar calendar! We had
a
lovely family meal and got a red packet each from Mum & Dad.
Mum said "I want you to bring your others halves for dinner
next
year!" That is so not happening at this rate :( Tomorrow is
Day 1
of CNY and also Valentines day... no luck on the Valentines bit, but
hopefully the Whites will do well in the FA Cup against Notts County
tomorrow!

Phawaorrrr
OMG! He was in the bar after work! All I could do was stare at him,
I don't think he noticed at all! I don't think my crap week coulda got
any better till I saw him! I know this was actually the
chance to
make my move, but you know what? I reckon it could ruin my image of him
if I did. He's never made the move to talk to me, and he
seems a
really approachable guy. I guess he's either 100% not
interested,
married, attached or GAY!

Fulham 3 - Burnley 0, the atmosphere was great even on a week night!

techniques listed.

Limerence
Some call it limerence,
I call it stalking! I saw him again in the gym today. All I
could
do was stare. I have no confidence to talk to him, but yet he
must not even have noticed little old
me. I have no confidence to do much these days.
I hate the feeling of not belonging. I used to rely on
myself,
but recently I've started relying on others. I need to
regroup
and stay by myself again! I would like to be back in my own
little world, a world where I can do what I like, watch what I like,
download what I like, be it TV or music.
Westfield bound after work today, I didn't buy much but spotted a
lovely MiuMiu handbag, it would've cost me half my months
salary
though. So I put it back on the shelf.
Tomorrow is Fulham v Burnley at "The Cottage", can't wait to sit in the
freezing cold watching the match!

Birthday
Dinner
was in a lovely
Vietnamese restaurant today (apart from the
problem that my bro and my cuz wanted to punch a guy on the next
table).

£20
(Birthday luck!).

- "It's my party I can cry if I want to!"

My
year started of on a high, then the big drop! After the drop I feel
I've been dropping deeper and deeper.
Ungrateful? Possibly... I'm glad everyone made an effort
but trying to force someone to enjoy something they are not
happy about and then making them feel bad about not enjoying it isn't
going to help.... should they be more concerned about the root of the
problem?

- "Wicked"
What
more can I
say? It was literally "Defying gravity!"
£20 a ticket for row 4 and bang in the middle, with the great
company of a friend. I really enjoyed the last minute
decision to
go to a show.
