pisa - london
1st dec - 3rd dec
woke up at 5am to leave for the train station in time for the 630am train to pisa aeroporto. i was frantically checking the weather at pisa and london to make sure there would be no fog to stop me from going to london again. wahh. i can't believe it. if it happened again i think i would just faint.
reached pisa aeroporto at 820am. checked in and everything was running ever so smoothly and i was feeling very optimisitc. was tempted to message fz to tell her i was leaving for london but afraid that i would jinx the whole thing. i sat down quietly reading through aquinas trying to grasp everything. at about 930 i decided it was about time i head to the check in gate and i passed through! hahaha :) another step closer. and then I SAW THE PLANE! wheeee :) off to london!
reached london at about 12pm london time. managed to get down to blackfriars about 2pm? whee :) met bevvvy and she brought me to her dorm and she bought my plums. the fruit vendor gave us extra plums because bevvy was working her stuff :) hahaha kidding la. like real. he was just in a good mood so yep. extra for us!
go to her dorm and the first person i met was... hahahaha :) shan't name names :) anyhow her room was gorgeous! filled with so many photos of.. ME hahahah YA RIGHT more like chris. hahaha :) so sweet though. which reminds i should develope the photos this time and put them up. the last time i wanted to do that i crashed my harddisk. but now it's being recovered so.. :)
went to covent garden and leicester square. what a beautiful place! :) tons of food. had ben's cookies! apparently it's really popular and tasty and blah. it was good but i still don't get what's up with all that hype! hahaha :) but then again. after that we went to china town to have large servings of japanese food and winded dyingg. we could not finish the food. i must admit my appetite has gone down quite a bit but that has not stopped me from putting on some weight. aiyaa. nevermind :) you got to be fat once in your life right? why not now! :)
toured more of the are after dinner and we could not stop talking. so much things to talk about :) it was fun. and bev was doing her silly kick-feet-in-air-hop thing. ahh i can't remember what it's called. BEVY WHAT WAS IT? and i could not stop laughing 'cause i was anticipating her falling down. it was a wet night and i just kept laughing and she abandoned me. and i looked like i was drunk and laughing to myself. she got her revenge. fair enough. but :) yay had so much fun with her. can't wait to see her in singapore! the lucky girl is leaving tomorrow! she's catching the commissioning parade. ahh i also wanna go :(
later that night i met whuiwhui! and we went touring :) 'cause i wanted to see as much of london as i could. we walked to the london eye. whee it's damn chio and i took some damn artistic photos 'cause err. i was trying to fit everything in la :) so artitstic by accident. and then we walked across the (?) london bridge and went to westminister area. i saw the big ben! :) heh. and westminister abbey? i think? aiya. siang eh.
could barely keep my eyes open for the rest of the night and had an early night :)
in the morning i was greeted by confucius. yes the wise man say, a little confucius a day keeps the dictator away :) went to borough market. wahh the food! all that crazy food. bevy joined us and we had a picnic at the cathedral :) it was so fun! :) ahhahaa was so glad that bevy and whui managed to get along so well. but then again. ahhaha :) aiyaa they are both so happy-go-lucky it's not surprise there.
after that bevy left to meet her friend. we left for camden market. bevy would have joined us but then she promised to meet her friend. so we went "shopping" hahaha :) see see only. pounds is something i cannot afford! not the pounds as in fat la, idiots. pounds as in currency. i know la i fat already la. okay i can't afford both kinds of pounds.
after camden market it was off to hyde park. ooohh we saw the marble arch, 'cause it was on the way. saw hyde park. it's like the central park of london and there was like horse riding there! so fun! i also wanna goooo! ahh really miss riding. i think when i get to newyork i will pick it up again and do some showing. been so long since i've been competitive in anything and well. yaa :) exciteddd :) can't wait. after hyde park it was notting hill! i was so inspired to watch notting hill, when i got back from london i stole the dvd from my friend and watched it till 4in the morning. hahaa :) so fun!
walk walk walk, reached portebello market. BELLO :) hahaha sorry. anyway i bought a pocket watch! gonna try to make it into a necklace! it's damn chio! shall show you guys when i get the opportunity! after portebello market it was famous duck rice. it was about time we set about eating. hahaha :) so many singaporeans there. so scary! hahah :) but it was SOOO good! ahh but then again it may just be because i am deprived. all i eat here is pasta. sigh.
after duck rice it was buckingham palace! no guards. i thought they would have guarded the palce 24hours leh? i mean. it's for the safety of the queen! but then again. who would wanna kill her? she's done no wrong? well. she's done nothing since she has little/no political power. so moving on.
set off to harrods! hahahah :) FOOD HALL WAS DAMN COOL LA! all the fooooodd :) looking at them i was getting fat already. we had the chocolate sundae because i could not resist. and we bought krispy kreme! after that, we lugged the dozen krispy kreme to bevy's dorm and pigged out with chinese food that night. talked all night and huddled in that small single bed and slept quite comfortably. hahaha :) that was the best night.
in the morn bevy had to rush off for an event and i had to rush off for dimsum with SHIMMIE! haaha shing jealous or not? we ordered way too much and i was about to burst! rahhh. hahahaha seriously we thought way too highly of ourselves. adn we were like, "oh if not enough we can order more later!" hahaha bullshit. those small dumplings! nothing small about them really!
later shimmie brought me on a little tour around trafalgar square and i saw her dorm. i think? haahha :) i'm so blur so right. after that i had to leave :( sigh. but oh well.
that was london :) maybe i will go back!
