I must not be lazy
I actually woke up before the alarm clock rang today. It really must have been because of that lengthy nightmare!!! Weird. Tossed around, read my book and didn't get out from bed until
1100. Called the bank but they still directed me to the branch so, I got myself ready to go out.
Finally I gave up on requesting for the Welcome Pack from the bank because they said I had only 6 months after I opened the bank account to claim it. Then I went to Uni, wanting to get the requested student letter which stated that I could have it collected after two days but the officer said that the earliest they could prepare it was on Thursday. Oh well.
Made my way to STA Travel to get my new ISIC card. Waited almost an hour before I was served. And of course there
were two couples of b***** who jumped queue!!! Then, walked to the train station to get my railcard(which I just discovered would help me save loads of money+time**feel rather silly now, sigh**)
Just as I walked out the ticket office, the free bus arrived. Quickly got on it to reach the city centre in time to meet Carol for coffee. Spent an hour chatting, did some grocery shopping and walked home. I really must walk more...feel much healthier than staying at home all day(LOL)
Glad I was able to settle almost everything I wanted to do today. Got a good bargain off the train tickets too. Now...to sit in front the computer and wait for Trinity Blood to load...
**I wanna go shopping**

b.d.a.y.
no idea why I am still awake at this hour. feeling lonely + pathetic.
First birthday in UK. Feels loved from all the wishes on my mobile, MSN + Facebook. Thank you everyone who remembered.
Woke up fairly early and got ready to follow Uncle+Dearie out. While they settled their matters, I walked around Luton's Arndale Centre and stocked up some toiletries as well as got myself two pairs of bedroom slippers. Went back home and started fixing Rich's notebook driver problems.
Finally it worked. Did spend quite some time on it. Was also finalising the software+updates on Uncle's laptop. Somehow I became an IT technician these past two days. I actually enjoy doing it but hates it when things don't work. Can't ignore the problems either because it's just stuck somewhere at the back of my brain. I go through such crazy procedures to get everything working.
Why am I not applying this attitude towards my work? I am trying very hard. (SOB)
Gathered at a M'sian restaurant for the birthday dinner somewhere quite far from Luton. I think the place was called Welwyn Garden City. Dishes were good, taste very close to home. There was a band playing at the restaurant and there was a birthday song request. The whole restaurant patrons started singing birthday song(paiseh).
I don't think I even made a wish before blowing out the candle. Just didn't think of it. Sigh. Oh well, too late for that now. Thanks to Uncle John, Aunt Margaret, Uncle Bryan, Aunt Irene, William, RIchard, Sharon+Dearie for celebrating with me.
Dearie footed the bill and got shocked stares from everyone. HAHA. Was funny to look at their expressions really, even though I'd already expected that to happen.
Okay. It's good that I am feeling sleepy now. Happy Birthday to myself now...belated(because it's a quarter to 2:00a.m.)

another nightmare
We were in a carpark. I somehow slapped you. (Note; I think I know who you are but I am not sure). You ran off. I walked up to the lift area. There were a number of people. Sudden flash of light. Then these two ladies started crying and screaming. Like it was the end of their world.
All of a sudden, the whole building went black. Like, something zapped all the energy out of it. It suddenly felt seriously HOT. Turned my back and saw that the place was on fire. Quickly ran towards the entrance of the carpark. The fire was quite strong but I quickly ran through it.
There were many people gathered outside the building. I was trying to reach for my phone and called Dearie. He says he's eating at the canteen and will be out shortly. I just kept screaming for him to hurry and started crying so bad. Everything else became a blur. The world seemed like it was spinning.
I woke up. Heart beat was seriously fast.
