jianwei is really obsessed with Gundams


I've been taking the bus (502) to school lately and it sure is much more enjoyable than taking the train. It's cooler (air-con) and less crowded than the trains albeit a bit pricier. Plus after a short while of standing you get to sit (maybe that's because it's an express bus) but I don't mind standing either. And I enjoy looking at the cars on the road..like a little boy.

Finally my weekends have meaning as we roll into another season of the Barclay's Premier League! Kind of a good reason for me to get home early and NOT stay outside, unless of course I'm watching soccer outside but that's unlikely. It's nice to be in a family where both your mum and dad are soccer fans. And we're all at loggerheads sometimes, rooting different teams. But no bad blood lol.

Also, I've made Saturday afternoons my official comic book day! Because the best books are comic books. I don't really enjoy the superhero-ish ones like Spidey or Superman though sometimes I read Wolverine and Batman but that's about it. It's a lot easier to read one-off books rather than a series because the libraries here have quite a shitty collection. Comic books aren't just for kids, more than often they have a lot of social and political connotations. Of course mixed in with a lot of fancy imaginative storytelling. So there.
