in here, the minority are prosperous, and govt look out for them. here it depicts how the city council of NCL is maintaining the lion statue that's guarding the chinatown gateway, in accordance to the Chinese Lunar New Year celebs
The couch was too comfy that I woke up at 0830..tu pun seb baik khalid kejut,kalox, subuh unta la jawabnya..
After bagels and some guitar hero sessions (which emphasize that I sucks at music) we leave the house at 1000 to discover the beauty and the bold in Newcastle.
Let's start with the eerily silent St James Park stadium, the home of Newcastle FC. Not a football fan I am, but I managed to burn some cash purchasing the overrated souvenirs.
Then we head on to the city centre, watching the ruins, of the old city wall, some unrecognisable neo-classic church, the town hall, the theathre, and the chinatown.
Come the shopping time, and I can resist myself from the temptation of discounts in FCUK n Clarks. With the "develish" support from Khalid and Zack (thanx heaps guys) I ended up burning my pocket.
We later on walk along the hill towards Quayside, and testify the magnificent Millenium Bridge, one of the greatest architecture been built in.....Newcastle. it sparked contrast with the more ancient building beside it, but the modernistic Opera Hall by the left hill along the Tyne is a strong statement that Newcastle is really going forward.
Dinner was at some Indian restaurant, which left me with an episode of diarrhea. Tu la gatai sgt nk mango lassi.
Tomorrow we'll be leaving for manchester by train. I wish we wouldn't miss it or anything
London :
7 a.m. and I could not stay in bed any longer. its been a while since I really had a good night sleep, and the single bed room in Hollands Inn is no match to the one I lay on every day in Volgograd.
after taking some morning walk around the block and breathe in the misty English morning, I had the longest warm shower, and light breakfast before we head to Victoria station, to store our luggage there.
The famous london tube dont sprang up without maintenance, thats for sure. but the very habit of 'em Londoners to maintain it on weekend really take a toll on us. Several lines are closed, n we do have to ride the double-decker buss. its hardly inconvenience, while at the same time i savoured the london scenery during her weekend...people from all over the world are here, but i cant see harrassment, or even rudeness in its day-to-day life. i dream of Volgo being like this...
Later on we head to Westfield, the unchallenged-yet,largest-shopping-centre in whole Europe. sales everywhere, but selections are few, and size that fits me...even fewer. At the end of the day, Zack managed to grab for himself a Topman jeans, some shirts n stuffs, while all that i can got for myself is a pair of socks.
Its 1630 and we're boarding the Megabus for 6 hour trip to London. notes to self : having a WC on board isnt a blessing as it smells! poor us that we have to wait for 4 hours before the bus clears up and we manage to shift to the front seat.
arriving in NCL later at midnight, we waited for Khalid and Yah to arrive for about an hour later. the NCL night is cold and eerie, but the few beggars who asked us for money politely do manage to cheer me up.
Yah's house is B.I.G!! in every sense that a russian student can imagine. imagine that her room alone is the size of my apartment in Volgo.
its 3 am and i really need to get some sleep before painting Newcastle red tomorrow!!
after almost 24 hours of wreck train ride, and another 4 of non-dramatic (thankfully) Transaereo flight to Heathrow, we arrived at last late in the evening. a friend (a girlfriend of a friend to be exact) met us there,and soon we criss-crossed the city to find our hidden Holland Inn hotel. there's nothing Holland about it,except it is located in Holland road. later that night , the london lad and lovely girls brought us to Tinkerdalle (is it?) a hip halal-food serving diner. its sooo hip we have to stand in line for a table. the steak was scrumptuous, and the companies were amazing!! i really hope to meet Ema more later on :) she got this really cool style that ppl would just love her.. put on top of that, they managed to kick up a surprise birthday wish for me, which involving the whole restaurant announcing my birthday and sang for me, with a trophy and a desert ice cream with a candle, and not to forget the scores of hollywood stars wishing me well for years ahead. i know its a template, but nonetheless, im flattered.. London have its air of friendliness, amid the cold gleamy weather. but counter that with the warm company we received whole night, and nothing would ever beat that..
healthy snack
because ozz is killing me, and the constant 'take a break with kit kat' is clogging my artery
I think ozz is a total joke,so I decided to use my time wisely in the kitchen and bake myself a warm,nice, choc cake...hehehe

KUALA LUMPUR – Selangor membuka tirai Liga Malaysia 2009 dengan bergaya apabila merangkul Piala Sultan Ahmad Shah selepas membelasah juara treble berganda, Kedah 4-1 dalam perlawanan Sumbangsih di Stadium Darul Aman, malam tadi.
Dua daripada gol Selangor dijaringkan ketua pasukan, Amri Yahyah pada minit ke-3 dan 36 manakala dua gol lagi masing-masing menerusi Zameer Zainun (m-32) dan Safee Sali (m-58).
Gol tunggal tuan rumah pula dijaringkan Kyrill Muhymeen pada minit ke-89.
Namun pemain paling malang malam tadi adalah penjaga gol Kedah, Helmi Eliza Elias yang melepaskan tiga gol mudah termasuk mengulangi persembahan buruknya pada Piala AFF baru-baru ini dengan menampan bola masuk ke gawang sendiri.
Helmi kemudiannya digantikan dengan penjaga gol simpanan Kedah, Mohd. Al- Hafiz Hamzah pada minit ke-38 namun masih gagal menghalang Selangor menjaringkan gol keempat di babak kedua.
Kemenangan Selangor itu sekali gus meleburkan sama sekali harapan Kedah untuk menempa sejarah menjadi pasukan pertama dalam merangkul trofi ketujuh dalam dua musim di bawah kendalian jurulatih, Mohd. Azraai Khor Abdullah.
Ia juga merupakan kekalahan kedua berturut-turut Kedah dalam saingan Sumbangsih ini selepas tewas kepada Perlis musim lalu.
Kedah yang beraksi di depan 30,000 penyokong sendiri termasuk Sultan Kedah, Tuanku Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah buntu mencari gol sejak perlawanan bermula meski pun melancarkan serangan bertali arus.
Sebaliknya Selangor yang dibimbing jurulatih baru, K. Devan bijak menyempurnakan setiap peluang yang diperoleh di depan gawang lawan.
Malang bagi pemain muda Kedah yang baru dua minit dimasukkan, Farizal Rozali selepas dilayangkan kad merah pada minit ke-54 ekoran mengasari penjaga gol Selangor, Hamsani Ahmad.
Ketiadaan pemain import benar-benar dirasai Kedah seolah-olah membenarkan tanggapan kekuatan Sang Kenari sebelum ini bersandar sepenuhnya kepada pemain import.
I know its lame when you post something about New Year, when the calendar is showing "3rd January"

Anyway....
How do you guys like my new template????its neat, isnt it??? hahaha
as if there's a lot of people reading this crap anyway..
2008 had been.....to compose it into one word : AWESOME
I first started this blog on January 2008, as its kinda resolution for me to make up a new blog / to totally change the template and look...to give it a fresh feeling if you know what i mean..
Now reading back all the post, I can really say that 2008 had been a good year.
There's a black spot here and there...but we're human and powerless in the face of fate. So what happened, just happened I guess.
