Happy 2011

  My first and probably the last countdown! I never thought I will be doing this but the experience is actually nice (despite the freezing cold and the drunk pack...) Managed to get a close view of London Eye, and the firework was like exploding right in front of you, huge and beautiful! If the world do end in 2012, I at least got an amazing experience of counting down new year? LOL

Designer Christmas Sales!!

Brick Lane

  Sunday is the Brick Lane day! Sunday Up market is my best love, not just the vintage clothes and the great food, but all those little stall of creative crafts work, jewelry and design work are very inspirational. Artist Irma Pellegrini using mini canvas and tiny figure to create everyday life. The result is so simple but lovely.

The Mayor's Thames Festival

  The mayor's Thames Festival is held from today (Sat 11th Sep) to tomorrow (Sun 12th Sep) along the riverside. I started from Waterloo just under London Eye today. Zones been divided, main stage for music performance, stands and moving truck for food is no doubt, I hate myself for eating so much before this so I can't have the Spanish churros (dang it!) It is like mixture of Sunday Up Market from Brick Lane and Borough Market; which I am sure everyone can that is good. There is a part for 'Eyes On Korea' event, introducing Korean Film Night and a bit of their culture, also another section for Polish food and performance.

  For people who miss today, I suggest you go in the afternoon tomorrow, chill out a bit, light food for dinner, and join the the fire work and night carnival at night!

London Next Top Tranny

  There, it was my first time to see the London Next Top Tranny last night, a tranny competition hosted by Fabulous Rusella in Bethnal Green's Working Men's Club. What a night that I feel I do not deserve to be a female. The guys (or should I say girls) are really just define and fab! Especially the host, Rusella, I couldn't take my eyes off her. I don't see any man who wouldn't want to have Rusella as his girlfriend.

The host & DJ, love is in the air? They look just gorgeous!

Trannies and the host.

Posh Weekend

   The lovely weekend started with a little bit of sun, and I brought my London new comer friend, Tina to something she had been longing for, English Afternoon Tea. Sketch is surely my favorite afternoon place, I literally brought whoever haven't try afternoon tea there. Interior of it is one the main point, French style X modern art, that's a big plus. Scone is T's best love, she did a great job finish all the cream with it. I love afternoon tea with all those little lovely cakes and scones; I can eat many of different thing. Relaxing with friends with a nice cup of tea. That's practically a perfect day out.

  We spend the evening to something even posher, BBC proms. Prom 57 is performed by Minnesota Orchestra with Violin Concerto by Berg & Symphony No.9 in D Minor 'Choral' by Beethoven. I definitely like the Beethoven, I'm not big fan of classical music but I do feel it is very beautiful and comforting.

The funny thing is, we are not sitting in the tight seats in the Royal Albert Hall; we got the £5 tickets to go on the top of the hall; and guess what, people having a real good time with the music! Sitting, laying down, drinking, eating their sandwich in lunch box; it feels like indoor picnic with classy music. That is quite something, It's my first time to BBC Proms, it is all new and exciting. I think I will bring some sushi next time I go. (Anyone wants to try this, you need to go to Royal Albert Hall at 5pm and start queuing to get a number and get your cash ready for the ticket.)
