yesterday, adrian and i passed by camden, or Winehouse country as i would love to call it. we passed by the tribute and memorial for Amy Winehouse. there were hoardes of fans and journalists from around the world. her house was just across the camden square which we passed by, and when we saw the people, we knew it was Amy Winehouse's memorial. we stopped for a bit and took some pics. it was so sad.
there were fans dancing and celebrating her life by bringing drinks and put their stereo's volume high up and played all of Amy's songs while they had a dance (albeit drunkenly).
i felt sad when i heard she died. apart from her songs are amazing, its not right when someone so young die because of substance abuse. she needed help. but it was a kind of help only she could have done for herself.

its now a thriving waterside complex of resto-bars..

oh, but before that, we popped by here.
the Adoration chapel of the Westminster Cathedral so beautiful..;-)

after that, Adrian and i had our fill of chinese buffet. i was craving for some really insanely unhealthy chinese chicken wings and noodles, we just had to go to our favourite chinese buffet down shaftesbury avenue.

indeed,Pat, 'waste' is an apt word to say for her death..she was so troubled and her songs tell of somoene who was longing for something she can never have...sucha tortured soul..i hope she will find her peace..and her family too..
