Inside the snow globe on my father's desk, there was a penguin wearing a red-and-white-striped scarf. When I was little my father would pull me into his lap and reach for the snow globe. He would turn it over, letting all the snow collect on the top, then quickly invert it. The two of us watched the snow fall gently around the penguin. The penguin was alone in there, I thought, and I worried for him. When I told my father this, he said, "Don't worry, Susie; he has a nice life. He's trapped in a perfect world."

A very annoying thing happened last evening: my internet was suddenly down while I was chatting with miss Tan Yulin, Justine Chu and Ng Shiming >:O !!!!!! So anyway, I decided to meet Hongsheng, hoping that the internet will be up once I'm back. But no, internet was still down. & drinking coffee after dinner at Cafe Nerro was probably a bad idea. The coffee there is really power. I could only manage to sleep for about two hours here and there last night ! & What made it worse was that there was no internet to turn to !! And so, I was forced to do some work hahah oh and I started watching this Australian series, Summer Heights High ! It's a mockumentary; super lame.. but very entertaining
Anyhows, the days in London are long right now, just like how it was in Spain. Walked quite alot today with Hongsheng and we ended up chilling at Holiday Inn ! They have really good potato wedges, i tell you ! hahah and, I ended up exceeding my 5pounds-per-outing budget (yes, again) by ordering dessert :O
After looking at the picture, you cant really blame me right....... hahahaha HAIYAH.
