London in chaos

Whew..I'm back in Malaysia. The first thing that anyone coming back from UK would notice would be the temperature. It's so hot and humid. Somehow I think sweat evaporates quicker in London :P

Uh I'm actually writing this after I read the news about blasts at major tube stations this morning in London. The whole underground, or more fondly known as the tube system, was shut down. King's Cross, Edgware Road and Russel Square were among the stations affected by the blasts. Speculations ran from power failure, trains colliding and of course, the eternal favourite of terrorist attack. BBC reported there were several fatalities. How many? It still hasn't been confirmed. Scotland Yard also confirmed one bus were blown up. I just can't imagine being stuck in London when all major public transportations were shut down. Luckily, I'm safe and sound here in KL. I guess this would mean a bit of an extra revenue for cab drivers?
I just hope that this would not result in more strict procedures when I'm returning to the UK at the end of September.

All this happened after London won the bid to host the 2012 Olympic Games, beating France in the final round of voting. Hmm would London still win the bid if these incidents happen before the voting process?

finally updated

Sorry for the lack of updates. My laptop crashed and now I have to rely on the school's comp lab to do my surfing. Haih no more downloading movies for me. Luckily I'll be back in Malaysia this thursday. Can't wait to go home. Miss all the food. Not the weather tho because London itself was very hot this past couple of days. Even Paris was hot. And most of the places here and there lack air conditioning!!!

Eh why Paris again? Because my parents and my youngest bro came for a week's holiday here. So it's a must to visit Disneyland! Now I got the chance to ride all the rollercoasters that I missed last time. Space Mountain 2 and Rock n' Rollercoaster were really cool. (but of course, they cannot beat all the coasters in Universal Mediterranea ;p). The weather was very hot, it's like I was back in Malaysia. Thank goodness they have air conditioning in most of the shops and restaurants. Bile panas je masok kedai la jawabnye heheh...And as a result of the hot weather, there was a storm on the last day we were in Paris, which caused a power failure. We were stuck in the Eurostar train for almost 2 hours! But as a compensation, they offered us all a free single journey or a half price return ticket. So sape nak pegi naek eurostar ajak la ye hehe

London's on sale again! Yea!! Summer sale has begun for most of the shops. Now I can and I will go shopping for souvenirs (and for myself ;P)..

oh yea, thanks for all the birthday wishes..but where are the presents? ahahaha

I love strawberries...

Strawberries! How I love to eat them. Now that the weather is warmer, there are more strawberries on sale than before. Most stalls along the route to LSE sell the berries at GBP1 for 2 packets. Hmm..here's some fun facts about strawberries that I found on the net

Strawberries give your body the nutrients (antioxidants, folate and potassium) it needs to maintain a healthy heart.

Ever eaten a double strawberry? Legend holds that if you break it in half and share it with a member of the opposite sex, you will soon fall in love with each other.

Strawberries have anti-cancer compounds. Those eating the most strawberries were three times less likely to develop cancer compared to those eating few or no strawberries.

In animal studies, researchers have found that strawberries help protect the brain from oxidative stress and may reduce the effects of age-related related declines in brain function. Could work for human as well I guess..
