Anyway have a very merry christmas and a happy new year everyone ....

i'm off to tokyo now...

BTW Linda things this is my thong!!! it is actually my belt... :tongue:

Today was the start of my Xmas holiday... no more work until next year.

Recent months i've been thinking alot about things and my love life.

Don't get me wrong I meet wonderful people who I would love to be with but sometimes I discover things later that really annoy me.... and i'm sure i annoy them as well...

They are either bible-bashers, outragous, not normal, obsessive, unorganised or just plain psycho...

Is it me or am i looking in the wrong places? I admit to myself and people close to me that I'm not perfect nor that i am attractive... but then why cant i find someone who is like me and is on the same level as me?

I always say to myself its good being single, no pressure etc... but i actually miss the friendship you share.

I can tell that all the loves in my life, past and present really care/cared for me... and that's what is hard to let go...

Maybe it's the feeling of being Alone....

I Love you.

I feel really bad also becuase i didn't wish a friend happy birthday and i didn't go to Laura's birthday.... some friend i am!

Oh well ...............
Last night I went to eat at Belgo's Covent Garden... very lovely... the best Mussels i had... way better than the more exclusive Fishworks (Harvey Nics/Chiswick) and Cafefish (Soho)...

Today I got woken up by Thanh at 8am (on my day off) He said my manager wanted to speak to me... I thought i was in trouble... but it turned out that there was a major situation so they were calling everyone who was off on holiday to come back to work...

So anyway a good start to my holiday... i only stayed till 11 then went to get my car hydrowashed....

After that I met up with Steve whos come back from Japan for a few weeks... it was nice cathing up... we went to eat in Chiquitos was very yummy....

After that went to have xmas dinner with James, Linda, Waidat, Zander, Ming, Eva and Melvin... quite nice seeing them again haven't seen them for a while.

I had a great time!!!

2 really late nights on thurs and fri last week has drained all the energy out of me.. I used the weekend to recover...

Sat I hung out with Gemma... went to Bayswater to do some xmas shopping then went home cos she had to watch the final of X factor!!! god what's wrong with this world! I had a chance to try out the Xbox 360!!!! how sexy is this console!!!!! i love it... Project gotham is a mad game they actually recreated part of london and its sooo accurate.

After watching that we went into central to go and eat dinner... went went to a nice comfy japanese restaurant called Zipongu...

Food was nice... and quite good value... but the wasabi did my head in....

When we left the place it was soooooooo cold.... like 0c cold.. and both of us were not really wearing warm clothing so freezed to death.

Xmas Dinner time... Anna, Chan, Alan, Joe and I gather round Gemma and Phongs place to have Xmas dinner

I offered to carve the turkey (don't ask me why) made a bit of a mess of it :p

It was quite warmful and fun... After dinner we watch 40 year old virgin and i was thinking i hope i don't turn out like him :p ... It was soooo funny though... very Ben stiller humour.

It was a very good night we opened our present and thank you Anna and Gemma for the presents..

Check out Gemma's Blog for more pics and a better write up :p





No wonder i was shit a carving would help to hold the knife the wrong way round!








Also i'm planning to save up for an Aibo... I need a new companion in life... hehehehe so why not mans best friend...

Last night was the Companies Xmas Party. This year it was held at the £200 a night Victoria Plaza Hotel in Victoria.

It was basically a pre drinks thing followed by a 4 Course Meal followed by after drinks and a disco.

Some of my work mates were already pissed when arrived at the venue which was quite funny.

Everyone had a wicked night... I think i drank too much wine or something....

There were a few people that were totally wasted.... i'm actually surprised that some of the peeps actually got home!

Got home at 1.30 had to wake up at 6 to go work... drove to work and i couldn't even drive i couldn't even keep the car straight... it got better though. I was quite surprised the amount of people who were mashed that actually turned up.

Was coming home last night bout 11pm and driving down my road and like 30 youth started running towards my car!!!! first thing i thought was "please don't touch my car" Anyway looks like they were running away from the police or something... (there's a youth club on my road) I thought hmmmm if i parked up and put the car in the garage there will be 1 of me and 30 of them and a brand new car...

So I decided to reverse and get out of the area for a while... but guess what just my luck.... they were stand in the middle of the road... blocking it... i didn't want to use my horn just in case they would try something .... so i just moved slowly.... they started trying to open my doors i guess as a joke... i was thinking .... "my car!!!" anyway got out of that mess and drove to a quiet road to inspect the damage... there was none...

anyway..... it annoys me how some idiots think its sooo cool to block the road and just hang at 11 at night.....

May be if they decided to stop hanging around on street corners at 11 at night they're be able to afford to buy a car as well...

All this week after work i've been going home to sleep.... i'm so so tired... could be cos i've been eating one main meal a day...

just don't feel like eating... :tongue:

Tonight decided to take advantage of the late night shopping places and started buying presents.... managed to buy a few but i find it hard to choose for some reason....

I missed Sapce Cadets tonight well upset.... getting quite addicted to the program .... ggrrrrrrr





I Love VW Dash lights...!!!!!

Gonna make this post a positive one cos my last one was quite negative....

sometimes how i forget how cheerful i used to be.... but hey shit happens...

so what i have been doing recently.... well been trying to do my xmas shopping... but i find it so hard to find the right present for people... that was never my strongest point.

This is a watch i was given as an early xmas present ... i love it... Thank you!

This weekend been driving as always........... Every night this week i have been out driving and going to eat etc... which has hit my budget hard.... but i don't really wanna stay at home... i'm in one of those moods again when you think about the past and what has happened to me this year and staying at home, just makes you think even more.

This weekend i've spent alot of it on my own... well except when i met up with Ming to go Toys R Us to see if they got any Xbox 360 controllers etc...

Spending time on your own is soooo depressing but at the same time it gives you time to reflect on things....

I went to give my car a wash and i ate alone...

In that time i had one thing on my mind:
- When did my life get so complex?

Wish i could anwser that.

Anyway in the evening on Saturday i went to a Casino for the very first time in my life... not becuase i wanted to gamble... just because they provide free parking in the middle of china town.... Anyway i had to join to get this so i went in to see what was in there... and was quite shocked to be honest... peeps wasting there money etc....

One young woman had lost more than £1k and was still playing BlackJack. The bigguest shock i think is watching old ladies playing....

Oh well atleast i have free NCP parking now...

Past week and a bit been Training the new starters so been isolated on one side of the office with them.....

Past few weeks in the office we've been sticking things on each others back... or fronts! how very mature we are!





Best way to communicate in an office.....



Still been driving my car everyday almost done 400 miles now.... the car is really dirty so prob gonna give it a wash this weekend.
