As the heat sets in
yes, i'm back at last. i'm left with less than an hour to blog as i'm using my brother's laptop, so this post might be pretty short.
the trip was AWESOME. i love london. it's amazing. i am so going back there. the first few days were chilly, but that chill abruptly became intense heat. freak summer, they call it. i went shopping the first few days. oxford circus and covent garden. the topshop outlet on oxford street was effing HUGE
. it was bliss, i tell you. i bought a great pair of jeans from H&M. i found atreyu's a deathgrip on yesterday album over there! P!ATD's too! coolness.
then my mum and i went to paris for four days. we went sightseeing during the first two days. the eiffel tower was beautiful. so was the arc de triomphe. actually, the hotel we were staying in was less than a ten minute walk away from it. i saw a giant louis vuitton too. it was like an entire building. two floors. we then headed to disneyland where we met my cousins and auntie. their rollercoasters are W-I-L-D. 360 degree loops, crazy twists, sudden speed bursts and whatnots. how fun. the sun was not being kind on us though. i got a tan just waiting for rides.
after two days of thrilling rides, we went back to london for sightseeing. i came back sick though, not a nice memory but i got better the next day. went to see the change of guards at the buckingham palace, the big ben, westminster abbey and the tower of london. they were all pretty sights, especially the big ben.
there were a few days where we just sat at home and talked and watched television. it was quite fun. we even watched three world cup matches in a row! also, lots of tennis matches. lol.
oh! almost forgot about the wedding. the venue they picked was
marvellous! really. it was somewhere like a resort, with lots and lots of green and even wild deer and things like that. very fresh air. however, we were late as we couldn't find the turning to get to the place. we missed the whole ceremony! what a shame. had dinner, which was delicious. their younger friends starting coming in soon after. it was the dancing part of the night. left around ten or eleven, can't remember.
anyway, thank you girls for coming to fetch me at the airport!! hope you like what i got for you all. it's 4am and i'm still awake! going to escape again tomorrow. lol. free entry from the other day, you see.
it's so hard to believe that so many things can happen in just two weeks. it's something to ponder about. imagine what you can do if you made full use of the entire two weeks. what things you can acheive.
three cheers for vanity - 3:28 AM
