Wakeup! London: How many gums did u step on today?

Arrived in London Heathrow close 7pm and got out only an hour later. Immigration was slow. Waited close to an hour. I'd rather be in BKK anytime. People around me didn't seem to mind. Then it strucked me. Like what my friend had told me. It is not that they are slow. Sg is just too efficient that we take things to granted. Trinity College on my destination form rid me of unnecessary questioning.

"Wakeup! London" The place we stayed after leaving my stuff in Cambridge. It is something like a budget hotel. My advice: Don't try it! :S

Went to the Diana and Dodi Memorial in Harrods. Encupsulated in the pyramid is the glass used by Diana during their last Dinner at Ritz and the ring Dodi had bought for Diana earlier in that fateful day.

Directly outside the Houses of Parliament, these protesters have been there for months. This country is truly amazing. The society is so democratic. Another amazing thing is the amount of chewing gum on the ground.

The count so far, Guohui 1: Dom 3 I'm so glad sg banned it.

I had a little free time left so I called on Tom and asked him to meet us at Leicester Square. We had munchies with him at Macdonald's and then he drove off hurriedly (after apologising of course) for the opening of his new movie War of the Worlds.

Anyway, crap aside, we did meet Tom Cruise who was doing publicity for his new film. Waited for 2 hours and he drove off along the lane we were waiting. Later tomorrow we saw on the news that he was sprayed with a water gun disguised as a mic by a fake TV crew of one of the stupid stations here. He was obviously angry and left the place but not before he waved to me. :P

Face it...

W (a female) asked me what is the Jerry Mcguire Syndrome. I have no idea. Give me the symptoms and I may be able to make a guess. Anything else especially about movies and stars, nope. So she went on to say that this guy she is interested in says that he is the 'cannot commit' type. W asked me what should she do.

So, the Aunt Agony in me told her that if a guy says that he cannot commit, it means that he is not interested (enough) and you should just forget about him. Men just like to keep strings of suitors interested, just to feed the ego and for rainy days.

Girls, wake up. If the guy is really interested in you, he'll do ANYTHING to get you. If he cannot commit etc, he is just NOT interested. :

Oh yes.. did i tell you that SCOOPS is out? Thanks to everyone who stayed back to help launch it before the weekend. Your weekly SCOOPS here!
