Post about my trip to London

I realised i never made a post about my weekend in London with my sister, so if you dont like comic con, pokemon, shopping or ramblings about autistic traits and anxiety feel free to skip ahead!

So.. we took the train down friday, checked into the hotel, i broke my suitcase and some random woman checking out dragged us into her argument with the staff 🙄 ... so after all the drama we headed straight out to china town, picked up a bubble tea, custard buns and a pack of sponge cakes from a chinese supermarket. (They were yummy but i cant remember the name of them, they were sponge cakes with different fruits in the middle). Later we headed down to check out forbidden planet (a must do in any town there is one!), i walked out with a couple of blind bag key chains - inuyasha and dr stone. (Ill make a seperate post with my pulls).

After browsing a little we managed to get a booking for angus steakhouse, we were starving! The steak was beaut and we ordered a couple of the alcoholic bubble teas ... the pineapple/mango on the right was alot nicer than the raspberry!

After stuffing ourselves we took a walk back to the hotel, played pokemon go on the route and took out a few raids and gyms 🤭

Saturday -

Comic con day!

We didnt cosplay as it was our first experience, we just wanted to head in and see what all the fuss was about. We checked out the stalls, did the treasure hunt although there were no prizes left, bought some shit, ate some food and left 4 hours later 😅 .... this is where we both realise how much we have in common and that the both of us are undiagnosed autistic. It was way too peopley in there, so so busy, i was getting fed up of people walking in front of me and getting too close, i wanted to check out some of the panels but there was so much background noise i couldnt focus on what they were saying. My sister was struggling with the crowds too and stimming with her hands all the way around. We took 10 minutes out to eat food, ran through the remaining stalls and ran for the exits 😂 we have no chill and i am not social enough to sit and play the games they had set up, my social anxiety could never. I ended up buying a nintendo blind bad that had a few cool bits in and i bought myself a new pin bag which is adorable! (Seperate post once ive sorted my pins).

Anime restaurant - uzumaki

After we escaped the hustle of comic con we had a reservation for uzumaki, what an experience! The menu is all anime themed, all the walls are covered in hand drawn anime characters, they had bubble tea, the lights were dimmed which gave it an awesome atmosphere and they had a DJ playing some cool music, we had some anime osts, a pokemon remix and he threw some blackpink in there.

I ordered the chainsaw curry udon (chainsaw man) which was beaut!

Sunday we headed out to the natural history museum, my sister loves dinosaurs so i took her to see the latest exhibit, it was pretty cool! Ended up being her most expensive day with the dino merch she bought 😂

Sunday evening we had a reservation at Callooh Calley .. a cocktail place serving pokemon cocktails! They also had the lights dimmed which we love! They also had a spin the wheel thing on where when you order a drink you spin for a chance at lowering the price, 3 cocktails each later and we were a little tispy! Check out the awesome cocktails! ...

If you made it this far congrats! Heres a medal 🏅

Ill end it here and make a few seperate posts with other details.

Corpse Roads

So i watched Original Sin and i thought i would write something small for it. I had so many ideas that went nowhere and i ended up with this. I feel like its all over the place but i cant spend more time thinking about it so im posting it. Also part 2 is written already, it just needs to brew aka lay in my docs till im satisfied with it.

He's dying, slowly bleeding out in empty train carriage and he thinks about a lot of things.

He thinks about his work as a policeman, work that made him human again, work that mattered and fulfilled him.

He thinks about his mother, knowing she is safe, taken care of and finally - hopefully with some peace. Hoping that this would not break that fragile peace.

He thinks about Sophie and her warm little smiles, hoping she won't be sad for long, that she won't feel guilty. That she will find happiness in Macau or wherever her heart might take her.

He thinks of Lu Zi Ming. Man who didn't kill her sister. Father of man he almost killed because of that. He wonders about him for a second. Would he feel better if Lu Zi Ming was one to actually do it, knowing he is behind bars? Would he be able to take his revenge if there was one to take on him?

He thinks about his work for Mr. Chen, how miserable he was with it and how good he was at it. He will miss it, like you miss a memory long passed that warms you occasionally.

He thinks of Egg Waffle, his colorful shirt after his vacation in Thailand. And Lao Gao, Lao Shi and whole unit.

He thinks of his sister, how much he misses her and that finally he will be able to say sorry to her. He hopes that she will forgive him.

He thinks of Lu Li. He won't be able to keep his promise to him. But this is for the best. Even his death will be fight for his happiness.

He thinks of everyone and is full of hope.

He thinks of Lu Li. And he hopes.

First few weeks Chi Zhen is strictly forbidden to leave his bed let alone the house. In his pitiful state, recovery is painfully slow.

He is trapped in uncomfortable bed with nothing to pass the time but watch the sun move behind the blinds. Room smelled awful to begin with but the oppressive heat makes everything worse. With yellow cracking paint on the walls and bloody floors nobody bothers to clean it's like he is waiting for a butcher. Chi Zhen feels like one big festering wound you constantly pick at until it bleeds and then leaves a nasty scar. It would be better he was dead. Better to put him to rest.

So Lu Li doesn't have to choose, doesn't have to act, can focus on his happiness only. So his mother doesn't have to go thru the humiliation, her remnant child, a killer at large. It's better to die, to make their choice for them.

From his makeshift hospital bed he plots and plans, pulls on every string, calls on every favor that can kill Chi Zhen and bury him for good. With a little bit of help he ties some of the loose threads and leaves Lanya. He thanks his saviors with 'I owe you’ and he knows they will come collecting if death won't be faster.

After Chi Zhen leaves Lanya he can finally breathe easy. Knot in his chest loosens and fresh air finally enters his lungs.

That knot pulls itself tight again after he arrives in Hong Kong. Choices waiting in Hong Kong are somewhat familiar and completely new. There is a choice of how to live and if Chi Zhen slips back into familiar but new crowds, familiar and new routines he tells himself over and over it was not just a choice born out of desperation.

He wonders about Lu Li's reaction, it doesn't matter. He is good at this job, that's what matters. Still, Chi Zhen despise Hong Kong, with the worst it's everything like home and best is nothing like at home. One room dingy apartment, in never quiet neighborhood is his home now. Stream of people milling around, having muffled conversations behind his doors are a constant now and sleepless nights are chased away only with a bottle of rum in his system. Colorful lights behind windows are always illuminating the filth in his flat but he can't be bothered to even begin to clean anything. Overall, it's miserable situation so he fills his head with what ifs.

If he returns home he is going to buy his own apartment or better yet, a house. Closer to work and closer to the retirement home, somewhere you can hear only birds and leafs outside your windows. He is going to fill it with ridiculous and ugly expensive carpets, that you hang on the walls that his many guests would marvel at. To match the carpets there would be delicate and colorful tea sets that nobody would ever touch. Sitting behind glass, picturesque and useless. There would be parties held every second week, that kind, where you sit around talking instead dance around drinking.

If he could return to Lu Li he would endlessly tease him about how ugly he looked when he cried at the scrapyard, telling him it didn't matter because he was the only one to see it. Chi Zhen would invite him to his new house and wait for Lu Li to tell him its most ridiculous thing he saw. And Chi Zhen would answer - ridiculous is good as long it's by your side. Then he would point out he has particular outfits to match with carpets and tea sets and Lu Li would burst out laughing, trying to hide his face behind his hands.

If his mother accepted his apologies and his hugs he would take her to that dream house, with two nurses and everything she asked for. Chi Zhen would cook her favorite foods as she once did for him, make jasmine tea every night to drink with her even when he hates it.

If Lu Li would allow it, he would spoil Yinuo rotten, buy her that toy that caught his eye last week, take her to see all of Lanya while telling her tales of rest of the world.

If Chi Zhen had the courage, he would go back to Lu Li's side and never leave.

His head is so full of what ifs and he can't breathe. He stops thinking of what ifs and he breaths just a little easier.

Chi Zhen keeps track, he keeps track of everything.

He knows every word said in the halls of retirement home. He knows of every little thing that happens in Hua City Police Department. From investigation into Dong Lingqi, which is honestly so stupid and risky, to Lao Shi's daughter expecting a second baby.

He carefully stores every bit of knowledge and tries to take deep breaths.

Everything happens so fast, Chi Zhen is no longer a wanted man in Lanya and Lu Li gets a promotion. And still Chi Zhen doesn't want to leave Hong Kong, or he can't leave Hong Kong.

He saw Lu Li on TV that day, in pristine looking uniform talking about achievements of Hua City Police Department and Chi Zhen wasn't really listening.

He saw Lu Li, all sharp angles, jaw set tight, talking about justice and all he could think of was that he has no right. He has no right to go back, to crush into his life like nothing happened. Like they could just continue where it stopped, like Lu Li waited for him to come back. So Chi Zhen just smiles at the image in front of him. Lu Li looks good, comfortable in his new position, healthy with solid weight and pretty color in his cheeks. Chi Zhen hopes he is happy and shuts down the TV.

He starts thinking about his future in Hong Kong, what he really wants to do and he stops thinking about Hong Kong shortly after, when he gets the news that his mother is sick.

#original sin #原生之罪 #chilu #fun fact: i hate jasmine tea and more then jasmine tea i hate green tea with jasmine in it #what a waste of perfectly good green tea #also i cant believe i didnt write any dialogue #also also second part is the reunion #also also also more i write more i realiye how limited my english is #how basic my sentence structure is and my vocabulary is jut shit #so yeaaaah #enjoy i guess #chi zhen #lu li

The Top 10 Worst Diets Ever Invented

When we look back over the sad, failed history of dieting, one thing came to mind: wtf. Diets alone are really fucking stupid, given the fact that most, if not all, are unsustainable. If you cut out a whole food group, eventually youre either going to slip up and eat from said forbidden food group OR crave it so much you go crawling back sans self-control or dignity. Same for any diet that considers soup your now only source of food.Do yourself a favor and eat HEALTHFULLY without restricting yourself to crazy, weird shit. By “crazy, weird shit” we mean any of the below aka the 10 worst diets of all time. Think of it like Nike, only the complete opposite i.e., just don’t do it.

1. The Tapeworm Diet

In todays batshit crazy news, we learned that there literally used to be a tapeworm diet. Back in Victorian times, when a womans biggest issue was fitting into a corset and pretending to not be interested in banging her husband, some medical professionals decided that swallowing a goddamn tapeworm was the answer to pesky chubbiness. We shouldnt have to explain why this is a terrible idea, but yeah, it is. To add to that, people are still buying janky capsules with tapeworm eggs inside/drinking the tap water in Mexico on purpoe. Earth to Matilda: This is really fucking dumb. Why doesnt it work? Because the damn tapeworm lives in your fucking intestines, eats all your food, can result in malnutrition, AND yes, you can die.

2. The Cabbage Soup Diet

Any diet that literally has you eating one food for an extended period of time is a terrible goddamn idea. Can you imagine how insanely crazy youre going to feel on Day 7 of eating cabbage soup? It doesnt even SOUND appetizing. Yes, vegetables are good for you, but eating just cabbage soup will make you drop a ton of weight and then instantly gain it back when you stop dieting. Next.

3. The Grapefruit Diet

As is the case with No. 2 on the list, eating just grapefruit for an extended period of time is an awful, awful idea. Can you even IMAGINE your new aversion to citrus after a few days of this shit? Yes, you should be working things like grapefruit into your dietshit, have one every morning for all we care. But if you go on replacing every meal with this sour af fruit, youre going to fail in the long run. Youll crave steak, fruit snacks, and all the carbs. Also if you’re on the pill it could fuck up your medication and you could end up pregnant. JUST SAY NO.

4. The Cookie Diet

This sounds like my kind of fucking diet, since my spirit animal is and always has been cookie monster. However, upon further investigation, we cant believe this was everor even still isa thing. Dr. Siegal, whose medical degree we question, came up with a diet that entails eating one to two cookies every few hours along with a 500-calorie meal of the dieter’s choice. The catch? The cookies are made of some bullshit ingredient (probably from Sweden and isnt legal in the U.S., like phentermine) that is apparently going to make you lose weight. So, not only will the cookies taste like shit, but youll start hating cookies. Additionally, this wont make you adjust your shitty eating habits AT ALL. Since, ya know, youre training your brain into thinking cookies are the answer. Which, in this case, they are not.

5. Cigarette Diet

This sounds like a theme from . Apparently, back in the 1920s, tobacco companies started pushing their cancer sticks as a means of controlling appetite. Nicotine does, in fact, suppress your urge to eat, but at the cost of having disgustingly smelling clothes, hair, and hands. Is the cancer worth dropping a few pounds? Gonna go with no on this one.

6. The Apple Cider Vinegar Diet

Ok so yes we were all obsessed with the Master Cleanse a few years ago because we were really fucking stupid. How fast did you gain back all that weight? Ill hold while you crunch the numbers. Drinking a combination of apple cider vinegar, cayenne pepper, maple syrup, and other bullshit may have you drop a few pounds at first, but, like OF COURSE YOU WILL, YOURE NOT EATING ANYTHING. I could drink Blue Gatorade and Ensure and drop weight, too. To add to that, enjoy your gastrointestinal discomfort brought on by the whole drinking vinegar thing. Not to mention the terrible, terrible gas. Sexy.

7. Detox Diets

Hey! You know how you have a liver and kidneys? The job of those apparently ignorable organs is to DETOXIFY YOUR BODY. So, these fucking diets touting extreme regimens like liver flushes, body cleanses, colonics, etc. are literally (and I mean literally) full of shit. Your body detoxifies itself all the goddamn time. Sure, if you want to add a few veggie juices and whole foods to your diet after a week of bingeing on pizza, itll detox you in a mild way. But having shit literally sucked out your butt and calling it necessary is the shittiest shit weve ever heard.

8. The Air Diet

I cant even believe I have to address this, but, its a thing. Probably started by Gwyneth Paltrow and her ungodly shitty GOOP blog (Hey, Gwynethare you going to go ahead and rescind that jade vagina egg post? No? Cool). Hows it work? Dieters literally sit with an empty plate, fork, and pretend to fucking eat. Um, cant think of a faster way to a) starve and b) develop a high-key eating disorder. Man and betch do not live on air and sunlight alone. There need to be nachos and chocolate. On second thought, anyone who does this probably has a great future in miming.

9. The Clay Diet

Something else probably piloted by Diet and Lifestyle Professional, Gwyneth Paltrow, is the clay diet. Apparently, you stir clayyes, literally clayinto water and drink it. Why? Because itll totally detoxify your organs, of course! Wow, I cant even begin to wrap my head around how thrilled mothers of toddlers everywhere will be when they find out that, yes, their children can continue eating mud for health benefits. Seriously, whoever came up with this one: Go fuck yourself.

10. Miracle Diets

Any diet that starts with miracle or what doctors dont want you to know is probably going to be really fucking stupid. Additionally, any diet that tells you to drink green tea or chug acai juice or roll in memberberries to prevent eating more than 500 calories per day is going to make you gain double the weight back in the long run. Your metabolism will actually slow down, so when you start eating like a human being again, youll get fat. Congratulations, idiot.

May all of your diets fail and may you eat like a normal human being. Amen.
