I miss my cats so much I’ve been forced to buy “The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Cat Breeds” and stroke every cat on every page in it. I feel like a pervert.
Its friday and waiting around to eat dim sum with my man-sister equals to a dark cherry mocha at starbucks. You may think I’m being endorsed by starbucks what with all the frequent sightings of the word in this blog but I assure you I...

Eat-in…the hyphenated word that ensures you get charged an extra 75p to your meal. Not so at itsu, where I’m picking out the bean sprouts out of my teriyaki chicken noodles but graciously compromising by eating all other greens.
Ahh…such a peaceful and wonderfully decorated place. Almost like a haven for us lonely girls who order a meal for one.
Aaahh…Near My School Starbucks, the place where couplehood comes to die. As before with Buxom Blond and Brooding Boyfriend, now its Greasy Guy with Bad Tattoo and Asian Girlfriend fighting. She sulks and to appease her sullen demeanour, he whips out his passport, presumably to show her his picture (because let’s face it, that’s we all try to hide) except I think they just met and she’s trying to...
Watching The Fly 1 and 2 as an early start to Halloween. Strangely, it makes me miss my cat.
Weird dreams, commence!
Its that time of the week when I spend 7 hours (ok, in reality, 3 or 4 hours) at what I call Near My School Starbucks. I order my usual mocha but in a bid to drink healthily, I skip the whipped cream and asked for skimmed milk in it. I Hate It. There is a reason I love my Mochas and it is because its full of fatty whipped cream goodness on top of creamy milky goodness. This skinny mocha is...
A current obsession is second-hand books. The kind you can buy for 50p to 2 pounds.
And then I stumble upon the greatest treasure of all: free books. Old editions of classics as well as newer books. Of course the selection isn’t as good as books you have to pay for. But I’m still going back every sunday evening after trading hours to see what they have.
I picked out 3 free books today and got...

I just realized that going through my first year again at the age of 23, I’ll be graduating alongside the little boys and girls who were 13 when I was 18.
Sharing a common laundrette sucks.
And sky sports 2 is showing old episodes of WWE where little people are wrestling.
Late night tv here is so good. There’s an ad for “Zombie Strippers starring Jenna Jameson, out on blu-ray Monday!”
Mi madre has left the country! Ole! Ole ole ole!
The casa is all ours!
I don’t think the English use the word prawn here. Toto, we’re not in Kansas anymore.
The non-prawn speaking women are not English. I deeply regret my error.
I fell down on the road today. In front of people. I exposed my buttcrack. Possible in-jeans bleeding of the knees.
We want JML’s toasta bags and we’re gonna get it! Toastable goodness that is reusable up to 100 times!
Does anyone else wonder how they get potato chip bags to look so puffed up and tempting on tv?
My blackberry turns 5 days old today and he looks as handsome as the day I got him.
Oh what has happened in the last month and a half you ask? I flew to london, left my lover and my furry child just so I could learn to say “where is my bathing suit?” in spanish.
Done a bit of shopping, been drinking a lot of coffee and developed a taste for ice cold orange juice.
Also, I witnessed a blonde...
Remind me to buy Bobble Off, the miraculous device that removes lint and fluff.
