Happy Chinese New Year!

I know the picture below as absolutely nothing to do with the title of my blog post, but the reason why I posted it was because I just cleaned out my camera's memory card in anticipation of tomorrow's trip.Yes, I'm going to London EARLY for Chinese New Year.

Guess where this photo was taken?

Domestic partnership.

Is interesting, to say the least.

Came back to find the bed made, the rubbish thrown, the room vacuumed and the stuff in the room rearranged.

Uber tired.../ Tai Wu dim sum affair in Manchester.

..because I have been swimming everyday for the past 5 days. Yes, I joined a gym, and I normally head there after work, and it's approximately a 40 minute walk back home after that, so I am so knackered.

God, muscles I never knew I had are aching.

Other than that, Chinese New Year is coming, and I'll be heading down to London again to see how the festivities are held in China Town there. Oh, and to squeeze in some shopping too =)

Went to Manchester sometime last week and shopped as well as had dim sum! ~~Stole~~Took some pictures from my friend's camera (obviously I have yet to upload the pictures from my camera).

In front of the arch at China Town.

While waiting for the dim sum to arrive, we cam-whored.

See the chee cheong fun thingy? Well, there's 'yau char kwai' (fried doughstick) in it, and I LOVE IT. First tried it in 2007 when I visited my friend in Norwich and he took me out for dim sum. I just had it 2 days ago as well =)

One guy and three members of the hair band gang. Lol.

Will update more the next time. Or at least I'll try =)

Being sick is memorable...

..but one hell of a sucky way to celebrate my birthday!

Pffft.

Dun care. Still went to Manchester for shopping the whole day yesterday. Got my 'dim sum' fix as well, FINALLY. I know it's winter, and the weather is like sub-zero, but honestly, my habit of wearing short skirts with tights has to cease sooner or later, lol.

Got loads of pictures, but haven't transferred them to the computer yet, so be patient okay?

If you're in a place with sunny climates, then smile! Mr Sunshine is doing his job!

P.S: Looking at Nikon D60 or Sony Alpha 350. Sigh. Any of these DSLR users (Sony in particular) care to share opinions?
P.P.S: I'm typing this post while high on drugs (for my flu, that is) and a natural high from life. Lol.

-5 Celcius at Trafalgar Square and the tale of London.

I was freaking freezing for most of the trip.

Other than that I had fun, and I was really happi! =)

Pictures can't be uploaded at the moment cos' my friend's pc has been infected by a virus, and I normally use her software to upload my pictures from the camera since my card reader is effed up.
