Gas leak?

I'm now back in my room writing this post. The heaters aren't working and it's icy cold in here. No wonder they gave me the duvet. Read on.

Dear Resident,

Due to a serious gas leak leading to loss of hot water and heating we are required to evacuate Whitworth Park tonight (Monday 8th).

Please be aware that you are not in any danger but...

Pfft. Homeless for the night. And tomorrow's a schooling day. Anyway, I managed to drag my butt out of the chair and headed over to University Place (for the night).

The Residences Management Team behaved in the utmost professional manner, I must say. And no... I didn't get a full body massage. But we were given refreshments. Where there's food, there's a happy Corrinne. :) Sigh. I'm so easily bribed. I even got a duvet because they didn't want to find a frozen corpse in the morning. I really can't help feeling thankful to the team although I know it is their responsibility to maintain the residents' wellbeing. Well, I'm grateful that they didn't just say, 'shoo, shoo, out you go. Hurry along now. And don't come back until tomorrow morning', although they could have easily done that.

Rumours got round that Whitworth Park was gonna explode. *biggest eye rolling action ever*
Human exaggeration!

Sweatness.

Random talk; mcg stands for microgram and not millicentigram like I thought. (Where did that word even come from?) Thank goodness I passed my Math test on units. Today, I realised that I don't know how to convert ounces and pints into millilitres. Hmmm.

Autumn's Concerto

下一站, 幸福 (Autumn's Concerto)


See.. my Mandarin ain't that bad! I'm watching a Taiwanese Idol Drama with no subtitles. :)
That's an accomplishment! But five episodes a day!!!!!! Sigh. I know I've gone overboard.

The whole story's so sad, gosh, with the typical storyline. They (the rich, spoilt brat and the poor, humble girl) fall in love. The guy's gonna die. The (evil) mum's hostility towards the girl. The girl's perseverance. Hmmm... I haven't got to the last episode but they most probably will live happily ever after. It's all predicted!
*playing the role of a movie critic* LOL

Good acting on the part of Vanness Wu, who plays the lead role, (erm-what's-his-name-again?) Ren Guang Xi. He is cool and handsome and so sweet! :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))))
By the way, the theme song's nice.

Recommendable.

Birmingham

Birmingham is awesome. It is the second largest city in the UK after all.

The Bullring bull.

Victoria Square

Aston Villa Football Club

The futuristic looking shopping complex and Selfridges store

Statue of Thomas Attwood in Chamberlain Square



Japanese dinner-chicken karage bento

My holidays are coming to an end. In fact, school reopens TOMORROW! It's just a matter of a few more hours.

But this means that May is coming soon. Which means that I am inching closer to Mark (Westlife). Which means that June is nearing. Which also means that Malaysia awaits me. And this means good food.

Think positive.

*drinking a cup of yummilicious milk*
P.S. Dear Cow, Thank you for your milk (although it makes me fat since I only drink whole milk). I love you so. xxx

I'm dating Happiness

Holidays have officially started. And to kick-start my holiday mood, we (me, CY, WH, Bickie, YY and Mama) went shopping at Arndale. Had a time of our lives. Everything was on sale!! Grabbed a couple of sweaters and a shirt for Daddy. I smell bliss in the week ahead.

I have been set free from bondage. Let's rejoice!

Tonight's itinerary: Cookie baking.

You name it, we bake it. Haha. Now, now... i'm a pretty good baker. So how bout i bake your wedding cake for your big day? 10-tier? 100-tier? A cake as high as the Petronas Twin Towers? Just think about it and let me know.

Aren't they lovely? :)

P.S. I will be leaving for London and Scotland tomorrow night so there will be no updates from me for a week. Goodbye blog. Goodbye world. Goodbye friends. I am off...

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
