Nottingham
Part I
Since I have been in Nottingham for more than a month, I think I shall introduce some of the places of attraction in Nottingham.
St Mary Church.
Well, it’s painted on the wall, the oldest inn in England.
Robin Hood, that’s what Nottingham is famous for.

St Mary Church.
There are lots of beautiful churches in UK but I think most of them are not allowed to take pictures inside the church. So, St Mary Church is one of the special churches to me cuz photography is allowed.

Internet finally…
I finally found an internet service provider who provides service much ‘better’ than streamyx. So, there’s some one who take over streamyx as No 1. Don’t ever think that the customer service in advanced country will be much better than third world country. The customer care line of my current internet service provider (I mentioned before, you know who) has good tactic in ignoring customer’s call when we really need them.
They finally came and install the internet on Wednesday. The way they so called ‘install’ is just came in and plug in the modem, then throw the cd for you to install the cd to your computer. Then, we, as the customers have to do everything else, although we have paid 25 pounds for the installation fee. Damn pk…charged me 25 pounds but do so little things. So, 3 of us (2 housemates) tried to install the stupid software and activate our line from 1.30 pm to 9 pm. We ended with nothing done but wasted our time. 3x7.5 hours = 22.5 hours which is equals to about a day. We tried to call their technical support but no one actually pick up the phone. Stupid…what for they set up a non-functioning technical support line?
Then, the next day we tried to call them to ask about our account status. This is even more funny, cuz they only put tape-recorded instruction to entertain their customers. The tape said: “Please online and check for your account status, thank you.” Stupid…if I have internet, I don’t have to call u la! Waste my time and money again!!!
Finally, I managed to borrow another activation cd from my friends who are using the same internet service provider as us. Then, we found out that this stupid internet people gave us a faulty cd which is not working!!!! OMG!!!! Why are they so so so stupid?? Luckily I am smart enough to borrow my friend’s activation cd…or else I’ll be sitting beside the modem and try to activate it forever.
So, the moral of this story is, don’t get internet from this stupid company. Just go and try others which I believe will be much better. And…congratulations to streamyx that someone beat them in this.

亲爱的不自量
对你真得很失望
自己有多少斤两请自量
懂少少请不要以为自己不得了
请不要将一双狗眼放在额头上
我不跟你正面较量
代表我还可以忍让
请不要向我的极限挑战
我不会是你的手下败将
因为我懂得什么是发奋图强
你不懂世界的宽阔我会原谅
反正你只懂生活在自己的框框
你以为的多姿多彩对我而言只是四四方方
我了解你的眼睛有少少色盲
所以我不会怪你看不见世界有多漂亮
我不懂得用夸大把自己包装
虚心向学使我变强
我有东方人的特点和内涵
总有一天我会将地球翻转
自己有多少斤两请自量
懂少少请不要以为自己不得了

你不懂世界的宽阔我会原谅

an ending is another beginning
I knew, rumours have been going around. Changing is always the unchanged rule. We, as a human is hardly resist changes on us and our life. I understand the fact that it’s interesting to know from the beginning till the end of the story. However, more explanations will not clear the mist. In fact, it hurts more to both sides. It’s hard to say what is right or wrong, as there are too much misunderstanding and misinterpreting. I shall bring an end to these dramatic changes. That’s all, full stop.
The time will tell. May we get back to the days we had, perhaps.

internet-free days
I’m not ignoring my blog, but I can’t access to internet at home. Stupid Virgin Media…I have been waiting for them to come over to install for a month! We have been calling them for N times, and they say they will get back to us. But yet…till now, they just won’t do what they have said. By the way, they are really fast in deducting money from our bank account. Can you tell me what kind of service is this??
So sad…that’s all I have to say…don’t really know when can I get my internet..haiz~
