HM The Queen visits the St Bride's House-front door of my office!

Snapshot of the Queen passing the walkway in front of my office :) she's so lovely!

Queen comes to Horwath-my office!

Yesterday everyone in the office got an email from our Chief Exec that the Queen and her husband the Duke of Edinburgh will be attending St Bride's church for a service. Since the church is beside our office we were invited to show support for the Queen by greeting her at the entrance walkway after her service.

Throughout the day everyone acted cool as if they weren't that bothered the Queen was coming but when it came to 3pm everyone started looking outside the window to se if the Queen had arrived.

I brought my camera to capture this rare moment because it isn't everyday you get to see the Queen in person right? So everyone who was in the office went down to greet her...and she looked lovely in her cute blue dress suit and hat. The Queen being "the Queen" has a certain air of elegance about her.....

She was so lovely :)

Post exam blues........

It's been two weeks now since I came out of my hibernation mode after 12 weeks of going underground for the exam. I hate the waiting game now because there is nothing I can do about the result now. I tried the best I could but I don't know whether my 'best' was good enough in this last round.
The reality of it all is that the next stage in my life will be decided by the end of this year...

I've tried to keep myself busy to take my mind off things and the highlights so far have been:

a) Chris and I attending our post exam celebration by going to the theatre. We went to see "39 Steps" courtesy of lastminute.com 10gbp offer- an old Alfred Hitchcock movie turned into a comedy play. Entertaining and funny with its subtleties and wit which you can only find in British humour but it was nothing compared to the creepy and at times scary "Woman in Black" we attended last time.

b) Shisha chill out session and watching the fireworks at Omar's flat in Canary Wharf...we might try to gatecrash his place to watch the fireworks at the Millenium dome for New Year's eve nanti :p thanks yah dude!

c) Attending my first Korean film festival at the Barbican: ever since Kak Rahayu got me addicted to K-dramas she invited me to attend the festival where I watched my first Korean movie The King and the Clown in the cinema. One of the best foreign movies I've seen so far where there was a balance of love, comedy, action and sadness....Malay movies have a LONG way to go in order to reach this type of standard. It was refreshing to see that the Korean film festival attracted not just Koreans but other people from various nationalities with one common love for great movies.

d)Meem coming to London: it was fun to hang out with her again and reminisce about the good 'ol London days and going for our road trip to Blenheim Palace, shopping in Swindon, trips to Liverpool St market and not to mention our makan2 sessions at our fav hangout places...

In London , we're expecting a long cold winter which is a huge contrast to the mild weather we experienced last year. So for those in London : wrap yourselves warm with your woolies and make yourself a warm hot chocolate during those long winter nights!

Is there some truth in this perhaps.......

I wonder whether there's any truth in this ...hmmmm..
