I like this poem

Invictus
William Ernest Henley


Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

Warwick!

Currently at Warwick, resting, relaxing and basically enjoying life exactly 1 month before I go back!!! =)

Actually. for a better account of what I did in Warwick, just visit Adelynn's blog. She has much better description skills than I will ever have.

The only thing I want to say is no matter how beautiful Warwick is, with all its ducks and geese and swans and worms and slugs and Adelynn Loo, I still like London more. Heh.

Maybe I'm just too used to it already. There was once I went to Coventry City Centre at 6pm on a Sunday and there were about 10 people there. Only.

I think I like crowds more. And cars. And pollution. I like nature, don't get me wrong, but only to a certain extent.

I guess the part of being in Warwick is having Adelynn's company for 9 days - which is excellent. And to eat enough food to feed a small family.

Actually, I should just list down the amount of food we ate:-
In the past four days, we sapu

• Chicken curry (2 days worth)
• Chilli prawns
• Fish with Kunyit
• Spring Onions Ginger Beef
• Half a Duck
• Nando's Chicken (Half per person)
• Carbonara
• Vegetables enough to feed a small country (think Vatican City)
• Char siew and Roast Pork
• Muller corner (My newest craving!)
• Fruits (Grapes, strawberries and get this - MANGOSTEEN!)
• Packets of Maggi Mee Assam Laksa flavour
• Cadbury Chocolates

In the next few days, we shall sapu:

• Fish curry
• Tomyam
• Assam fish
• Tandoori Chicken
• Porridge
• Another bunch of vegetables enough to feed another small country

I AM enjoying myself.
