Bloggie Makeover

Posted in
Bored of the previous templete. Though I don't particularly like this new one, it will have to do while I decide whether to move my blog or not.

Been listening to some Britney Spears. I know, it's so 17 but I can't help it. Hate her yet absolutely love her at the same time. She's got loads of Grammy awards, she's been to everywhere in the world. Her every moves is news-worthy. She'd 2 divorces by the age of 27... Yeh, the American dream.

Granny's here! In England! Yay! Now I can visit her so she can make some mee hun kuey, some cantonese noodles, some char kuey teow for me! Only problem is, ticket's to sheffield from coventry cost 20 pounds, WITH rail card.

Exams looming. Next Thursday, FIS exam. Been to 1 lecture for the whole year, 3 seminars, and done no revision for it at all till now. Worst still, it's not in Accounting / Mathy language where I can write my way around the exams. It's in computer language! Some Enterprise Systems, SCM, ERP etc. Dan is right, you don't go about calling Photoshop some fancy Information System names like 'image editing application system' or something, you call Photoshop PHOTOSHOP. Not sure what the business school is thinking when they select this module for us but well... Just hope it is easy

Sometimes I wonder, how Malaysian University life is like. Higher Kiasu-ism index, lower social/external pressure i presume. By the way I just realised my English standard had fallen quite drastically since I came to UK. Someone tell me how is that possible.

Appalling British eating habit

Posted in
I once had a meal: toad in a hole (sausages in some flour-based thingy), mushroom soup and apple crumble dessert at a friend's place. Curious, I looked at the label on each food packaging, calculating the nutrition value. My calculation left me in shock. That meal alone was about almost 2000 calories. Double my daily required amout of calories intake.

I began to observe since then, what British people are eating. Here's some observation of British eating habits.

Adding cheese to vegetables (eg: salad with cheese sprinkled on top, cauliflower cheese... etc)
Having chocolate cake, which in itself, is already horribly fattening, and adding double cream on top because otherwise it would be 'too dry'
Thinking there must be sugar and milk in tea (how can Chinese people drink tea without milk???)
Having cheese with biscuits after desert after dinner after starter. LARGE chunks on cheese on biscuits.
Full fat milk. Enough said.
Adding jam/sugar in oat porridge

No wonder most of them are obese
