Little TV Addict

From tomorrow onwards, I will be working in 2 health and beauty stores, alternating between the 2. Darn! But one good thing about working in high street is, I can go hunt for chicken coops for your yard during lunch hour since there are many shops within walking distance.

I am not very happy about it, questioned it, and apparently I am more experienced compared to other pharmacists in the area, so I am the chosen one to cover the regular pharmacists holidays. NicE~

Not only it is busy, but it is long hour shifts too! Starting at 8.30am, finishing between 6-7pm! And only get 30 min lunch break.. Tsk tsk.. hope these 6 weeks passes quickly, then off I go home to Malaysia.

Woohoo, it seems like this year is going to go by really quickly and easily! Whoop.

My sister just came to visit me for 5 weeks, left yesterday. So now its time to readapt to being on my own again, just focus on my work for about 6 weeks, then Id be off on holiday for 6 weeks!! Going back home for 6 weeks, then back to Uk in mid April.

By Mid May, my family will be visiting , together with my sister who is currently in Missouri! By the time they leave, it will be June 2012!! Feels quick even to think about it! I better get started with the holiday plans!! Lots to do and plan.

I am planning my next holiday again in March. I have 6 weeks off in March, and I thought why not plan a short trip to Europe before I head home again right? I have to make sure I get someone to sort out my amish gazebos in my backyard before I leave.

So, the question is where should I go this time? The last time I went to ICeland, an icy cold country. This time around, should I go for warmer choice or cold place again??

My friend suggested Marakech, Budapest or Greece. So its up to me to take my pick! I think Marakech would be pretty interesting to visit, but it will be pretty hot! Budapest is reasonable, and good to visit, but doesnt seem to attract me much. Greece would be better to visit in summer, dont you think?

Marakesh would make more sense as a choice for march eh??

First time visiting London Icebar last weekend. I never knew it existed, until our last Iceland holiday, I found out about Icehotels, and Icebars. The london icebar is apparently owned by the same company of Icehotels.

You pay £12 for 40 minutes visit to the icebar, you also get a complimentary drink. You can either have alcoholic or non alcoholic drink. There are a list of special drinks, where you have to pay an additional charge of £4. But I think it is not necessary, you just go in for the experience. The drinks are pretty expensive.

The whole place is made of ice, including the chairs and table, and the drink glasses too! You can suck your glass once you finish the drink! Hehe. It’s a very small place only, but worth visiting.

Yay, I can’t wait for tomorrow to come. I am bringing my sister to London, and we are meeting some friends. We have also made some plans for the 2 days that we are there, to go visit Icebar!! Its always been there, but I dont know why I havn’t been in before!! Apparently everything in the icebar is made of ice, including the tables, chairs and glassess! It is going to be awesome.

We will also be going to harrods, planning to try some macaroons. After that go hunt for bogner ski wear in town, followed by visiting MnM world, and then to china town for a meal! Not forgetting, we will be seeing Lion dance as well in china town, it is going to be crowded, but it will be fun. At least we wont be stuck in torquay for CNY, haha!

Happy chinese new year to all!

Oh my god, past 3 days felt like 3 months!!!

I know Im becoming like one of ‘them’, who moans and complains about everything. When it is busy, I moan, when it is quiet, I moan! Lol..

I have been working in a quiet store cain brixham for the past 3 days, I havn’t felt so bored and sleepy for such a long time at work!! The 1st 2 hours was still bearable, I was finishing up the collections, owings, checking blister packs etc. By 11am, all work has been done, and that is it! And there werent many customers too. So I practically stood there all day, staring at the watch for 5.30pm!! Hahaha.

For the first time in 2 years of my working life, I did not turn up to work until my boss rang me at 9.30am!!!

When I received the call, I literally jumped out of my bed, thinking oh god, its 9.30am already?! Whats going on? How come my alarm did not ring?? Ahh, I guess it did ring, but I snooze it and fell asleep again and never got up again.. haha!

With my job as a pharmacist, the shop has to be remained closed until I turn up, so god knows how much money they’v lost within an hour!!! I felt so bad. I had a thought, maybe I should hunt for easier jobs like Counter Attendant Jobs instead? Haha. At least it involves less responsibility.

To pay back for that, I had to take taxi to work, costs me £13!! Urgh, not good especially when I am trying to save up. Oh well, at least I did not get any scolding from my boss or the staffs. They were all very understanding!!

Hmm.. so they are coming to visit me and meet up with my elder sister come May. It is time to plan for a short trip in europe again!

So Iv been to most of the common european countries, so Im cracking my head to think where else I want to go to before I go home for good. My dad wants to visit scandinavia, but it is rather expensive. I guess with proper planning in advance, it should still be affordable. But where in scandinavia, sweden, denmark, finland, norway? Urgh. Such a difficult decision.

I would really like to see polar bears in norway, but iv checked the price, its insanely expensive! Unless im a millionair, if not it is not possible. Haha. Any suggestions?

I can’t believe how I spent my last weekend. After shopping for testors model paint in town, came home, had lunch, I sat down and never got up again. Why??? Because I was hooked on to the TV for over 10 hours watching one movie after another.

Iv always been into tv serials, drama etc, but it seems like there are not many great tv shows at the moment, or at least nothing that captures my attention, so I turned to watching MOVIES.

PPS is really good for streaming movies especially when you have fast broadband. I watched all the movies from there, and you barely have to wait for it to stream, just click play and watch. The only downside is not all the movies are recent, there are many old films, and less new films. That is absolutely fine with me, since there are many old movies that I havn’t watched before.

The few I have watched recently are Change Up, Bridesmaids, One Day, Family Man, Zoo Keeper etc!! They were all pretty good, I have to say! Have you watched any good ones recently?

Im addicted to TVB once again, since the x factors are finished now. Also, they have stopped Greys Anatomy over the xmas period. When I havn’t got other good shows to watch, Ill always fall back to TVB, eventhough they aren’t that great, especially the latest TVB – When Heaven Burns, I think the plot is just full of crap. How is it possible for a group of guys to eat their best friend? Absurd.

Having said that, the other TVB series is pretty good, and I can’t wait to watch the finale tomorrow – Bottled Passion. This is a good series, if you havn’t got anything to watch, then Id recommend this!!
