Pictures in my room. From top: My room mate's shelf above the study table. (note the amount of alcoholic refreshments he have.) The compare the 2nd pic, my shelf on the left to his... empty le. Nah now see again my room mate's 1...



Yes, I cook alot here le.. Most of the time cook, if not means study. Aih maths exam next thursday again! Now let me tell u my du lan story...


Here, there is a cheaper(Not really cheap) supermarket that we mostly get our groceries there, called Sainsbury. So, yesterday I went there again to replenish my weekly supply with one of my friend. Oh yea we bought vege, sauces, spices( wow chilli padi le 50g for 60pents) and 2boxes of drumsticks cause its cheaper 2 for 3,50. Ok now so many of drumsticks :- about 20 drumsticks wat we gonna do wif it? Got 1 good idea:- that is to debone the chicken and we get our drumstick fillet.


Erm.. I dont have a sharp and proper knife to debone, so I decided to buy a knife. I choose a stainless steel sparing knife bout size slightly larger than a fruit knife. Go to the counter scan everything, till the knife... "Hello sir do you have a professional ID to prove that we can sell this knife to u?" WTF ?? ok *show imperial college card* . "No we dont recognise tis" ( Oh ya now i remember tis is the same bugger who didnt let my friend buy beer the other day. Even when you show them International Student Card, she still say this doesnt show enough prove that u r above 18) @!#%$%&^*&$#@ !! fine.... throw away knife.


Walk away, my friend say try another counter la, becoz previously i bought a small knife they also din check anything. Ok queue up for so long to reach counter; "excuse me can u show me id ?" F*ck ! again. Show imperial card, nope, coz imperial card doesnt shows ur age. STupId,, if I m not 18, how can I come here and study in a Uni and with a college card ? Dulan... Finally, my friend took the knife, go express counter, put knife on the desk, (ditt... scan) pay 3 pounds, get 1 pent change, receipt. done...wat? they didnt ask anything? "no at all!!"


~NO need show ID next time la brudder. Show them your middle finger .. NAh!!~
