Stop. Look. Turn.

Cinta sejati
Tak akan pernah mati
Selalu menghiasi
Ketulusan cinta ini

- Ari Lasso's "Cinta Sejati" -






Today, me and the cousin went to the Camden Markets, cuz she's never been there...so, after waking up late, due to some late-night-surfing-for-wedding-photos-and-the-like..as always, Camden never fails to offer something quirky to us...she managed to get away with really, really cool t-shirts, and i, a funky piece of jewelry *menghabiskan duit betul!* had halal mexican fajitas and nachos for lunch..we even met with a Malaysian who has his own stall in the markets and offered us some discounts...hehehe, perks of meeting up with another Malaysian trader..after Camden, we went to my school for prayers, and then ronda-ronda kat Angel...Borders, this mega bookstore, is having a major 3 for 2 sales on thier books, and i'm sooo tempted to get Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, tapi kemut :p

the cousin asked, are you gonna miss this place? that's when i stopped. to look, and turn..

in the midst of me trying to finish up my work, and to accomodate everything on my to-do list, i realised i have less than enough time here in LOndon...there are lots more that i want to do, and places i want to go...

i want to take a leisurely stroll in the parks, and stop to read a book under the shade of a big tree..

i want to take long bus rides, and look at the houses and shops passing by...

i want to browse for second hand books in the markets...

i want to be entertained by those buskers underground, and that one mediterranean boy who plays the accordion on the trains, who prolly only knows the notes to Lambada...

i want to watch more theatre shows, musicals, and live music offering...

i want to attend more forums, talks and courses...

i want to get my hair cut free by those Tony and Guys students...

i want to have traditional english tea with scones and cream...

i want to see Greenwich, Canary Wharf, Kew Gardens, Stonehenge, Cornwall, Wales..arrghhh..semua laa!

as much as i'm looking forward to go back, i know i'm going to miss this place dreadfully..i know, as i knew when i left kindy, primary school, secondary school, university, my previous office, that THINGS will never be the same..i will never go back to the days of being a postgraduate student in one of the most vibrant cities in the world...and if i come back once again, it will be on a different level, as i would be stranger...will LOndon embrace me again then?
