[The 34th day in London , wiiiiiiindy day ]
today i went to Greenwich,the National Maritime Museum and The Royal Observatory wit Ah Suan =) Didcha know where is Greenwich ..And u know what is so special there? i bet most of you donno =P..nvm~ actually the day before today i donno also =) let me tell you then~
According to Wiki..Greenwich is a district in south-east London, England and it is so special because it is Prime Meridian.The Prime Meridian is the meridian(line of longitude) at which longitude is defined to be 0°.and it known as the International Meridian or Greenwich Meridian.
Then,TheGreenwich Observatory was set up to study means of fixing longitude and recommended to their governments that Greenwich should be adopted as the prime meridian.The decision was by no means unanimous.Over the following years the various governments adopted Greenwich officially as prime meridian.
So u know GTM?it is mean solar time,with midday defined as the at the time at which the sun crosses the Greenwich Meridian, 0 degrees longitude.Sounds very GEO aaa....BEHTAHAN!
ok back here..Later then scientists found that,they needed a more exact measurement of a second,and brought in Universal Co-ordinated Time(UTC).UTC has officially replaced GMT,but for all but the most,most people still refer to GMT.UTC is co-ordinated from Paris, although it is based on Greenwich,not Paris time.DON ASK ME WHY.
So.......In the courtyard of the Observatory, and just outside, are brass strips set in the ground and walls marking the exact site of the line of the meridian.It is therefore possible to stand astride the line,with a foot in each hemisphere : a favourite tourist occupation..i am tourist?? nop~ i am the student :D

[The 32th day in London]
I wonder sometimes.How do we even begin to learn a language? What makes us ask about something,wanting to gain more knowledge about a certain topic,to breach that stupidity to all knowing-ness.Goshhhhhh, there I go again inventing my own vocabulary.>.<
I like being a nightowl O.o I know it's not healthy and of course I do enjoy the moments of SHUT eye that I am able to have each night though I may not always fufill the required 8 hours =P I don't have a healthy sleeping pattern. I hope you do though.
But as I was saying,I adore the way I'm able to actually hear myself think without having other people distrupt my thoughts...
I contemplate many things,but more often than not,I wonder bout the importaance and relativaty of my thoughts to life..To other people: Do you have such questions?Such problems?Such interests?Such thoughts?Or am I the only weirdooo on the face of the earth that goes through everyday struggles but make them up to be the biggest problems in my life and..if they go unsolved, would result in the end of the world. Dooms day & emo day. I HATE YESTERDAY. ( u know w h y )
Anyways,I've started my midnight excavations again and I'm revelling in the joy it brings me.I do enjoy it because it's MY time.Time with myself.To reflect.To think.To consider.To decide.To do watevar i wan. Sometimes i just like to being alone.
I've also noticed that the sound of my fingers grazing over the keyboard and applying bit pressure that would magically make a post appear on the screen where the it has indicated..Oddlly enough,it calms me down.A feeling of serenity would be able to envelope me and carry me off to the place where I had last left my thoughts.I LOVE BLOGGING. (L)
I just like it. Though I was looking back at some photographs from the past year or two,It made me miss everyone a lot.
I might see you around in school and you're there, but because of our hectic lives and mayb selfish-ness,we don't have the time or rather we don see the importance of making time to slow down,take a breather and ask the person beside you. " How are you doing?" Not just asking for the sake of conversation or small talk.but to really find out if they're okay.
I read a book and it says : "We're all amazing actors and actresses.Able to wear a mask and hide the pain and burdens on our shoulders that we force our fragile selves to carry alone." yea,is true.Sometimes,maybe we could help each other along the road and depend a little on someone else for a while.Just until we get our footing again.But i never learn from my past lesson.
See,I told you the nocturnal being me..can only think and consider things like a human being in times where the area that I live in is silent..alone.. and still..I like it.
OHYA..HAPPY ONE MONTH & 4 DAYS ANNIVERSARY! =)
nite!
Yes, hello again people. It’s ME!! * confetti is releaased from the ceiling and trumpets and music resounds in the room * Oh sorry, was enjoying the moment there.=P Hehe..i am gila-ing wit my new hp.. Yea, syok sendiri.. AGAIN. Can’t believe it’s SUNDAY today. I mean, so fast and the week’s gone.tml hav to wake up early again = = Sheeshh..
I went to Asda today (FYI : Asda is a supermarket which is like our Giant) actually ntg special but like for the first time, I actually went out wit Koffi -my housemate who i juz know him for one week!!! WOOHOOO!! So cool wei! Hahaha..
and it comes to lunch time!we went to a desert shop coz we were not really hungry. I ordered the yogurt cheesecake and he ordered a classical cheese cake; not very impressive and how can the desert shop NOT have strawberry ICE-CREAM?!!!!!!!! Omg. I wanted the banana split but there wasn’t any strawberry and I didn’t like chocolate, so it would’ve turned out to be 3 vanillas! Eeeee.. sien man.I could hardly enjoy the cake but he did. Only thing I could do was imagine it is secret recipe's yogurt cheese cake!~ = = after that another housemate came..really didn’t do much after that. Ended up talking..talking and talking..^^
Came home, stoned for quite a while before watching 'Bangkok Dangerous'..
Bangkok dangerous
* sigh *.. Bitching session with TONsssssssS of spoilers.Skip if you plan on watching it..Skip if you don't want to hear me bitch about the show. Skip.. well, just skip it. lol.
I mean, the whole inflatuation with the deaf girl was so stupid!Unrelated and totally a waste of cinema tape!AND,if she's bloody deaf,how the heck do you expect her to HEAR the beat of the music to dance?! DID YOU NOT THINK OF THAT?! The only reason I'm so bothered by the show is because I was expecting so much moreeeee..=(
Then the action is plain..I can honestly say I thought Fury was 10 times better.And there story line isn't very nice at all.Wait,is there even a storyline?It's so weak! It's so frustrating to watch.I know,can you sense the annoyance? It's.. crazy!
Besides the movie, I guess it was a good day. Wait, it is a good day.
Nite!
