I'm flying off to London tonight.

"*GASP*" some of you will say, "What now? Is this blog going to London too? How can we, the people with hand spasms, access this website now that you're going to London??? Oh no, my kettle is boiling."

Don't worry fellow technoweenies, I've asked the internet experts - SomethingAwful.com, and was told that even if the author goes overseas, the webpage will still be the same and I can update it when I'm there as long as I have access to 'the internet'. Ok so they weren't so polite when they replied me. It was kinda rude and I think the words 'moron' and 'stupid' were mentioned once... ok maybe a few times.

Anyway I'm still quite confused as to where I'm staying or where I'm supposed to report to, but I've gotten this map off my University's website.
I think I start at 1) and then follow the arrow down but its kind of confusing as to the next arrow after that because I know I need to end up at 2). 2) doesn't seem to have any emanating arrows so I'm really lost as to how to get to 3). Anyway I need to get to 23) so I hope I manage to find myself that wheeled transport in the picture so I can get to 23) before dinner.

I'm told that this map is just a teeny weeny portion of London itself, and some legends say London is just part of a much bigger scary place they call UK.

Oh no. (Not sure what UK stands for, Uncle Koala or something cute like that I hope)

Class Cranium

Just last Friday, Class 414/2005 came over to my place for a semi-class gathering, and I say semi because only half the class came. The rest never came because I heard they went home after school to mug for their A' Levels which is in 2 years time.

Bunch of nerds.

Nevertheless, we had lots of fun and it was invigorating for me to spend time with younger people. Besides having too much pizza which resulted in my family eating leftover pizzas for the next 2 days, I discovered the extremely fun game called Cranium.

Now Cranium is an exciting party game and the objective, much like our ordinary mortal lives, is to reach the end. In between the start and the end, again much like our lives, there are many puzzles to solve. These puzzles involve solving general knowledge questions (i.e. What is Marilyn Monroe's underwear color, or something like that) to sculpturing on plasticine.

Now the makers of this game proclaim that "When you play Cranium, you'll use your brain in ways you never imagined and find yourself doing the unexpected." It is very strange now why this game is called Cranium because as the biology authority - dictionary.com puts it, the cranium is "The skull of a vertebrate." Now of course there are no brain cells in the skull so it is not very correct to say you are using your cranium. Now if this was a game consisting of headbutting skills, then it would be correct.

Playing Cranium was a humbling experience because most of the time I had no clue as to the underwear colors of various celebrities. Furthermore, I realised that I am probably only good at sculpturing boulders using plasticine. However, I did discover my talent as a tellytubby impersonation. I must remember to put this in my resume.

Like all other games that I do badly in, I have discovered a way to cheat. All you need to do is to read through all the cards before bringing the game to your next party and you'll soon be the toast of the party. Everyone will be amazed at your incredible cranium. Of course if you ever run out of puzzles, you can always buy the Booster Box 1 (picture on left). But I do not suggest you do this until you've memorised the original puzzles.

At the end of the day, we tried twice but never managed to complete the game at my place. Eventhough my team was in last place, you never know if we could have caught up with the rest.

Ok fine we were last by a long way.

I had lousey teammates. Gah.
