so i traveled to Central London yday+today,
i love about half an hour away from there
so i randomly took a few trains and luckily
i was on the right ones (:

and i met....


Gabe+Wens+MunWai yesterday.

MunWai's presence was supposed
to be a surprise which failed
but i was really happy nonetheless.


and Ems today!


she was really happy at the time cause
we found 100 Plus in China Town (:


i really don't know why we're all crouching.


so on the first day we went sightseeing,
all the usual Big Ben, London Eye etc etc
of which pictures i will put up on Facebook (:


Harrod's in Knightsbridge.


so cool you know there were fake snow
drifting down along the whole Harrod's.
i got so excited at first cause i thought
it was really really snowing but no ):


I'm sure you've seen this in movies n all!


so we just walked around and saw the
pretty sights of London with our
faces frozen off 'cause it was SO cold yday.
the London accent is AMAZING!
i love walking and just listening to them talk.



supergiant sweets!!


and then today I FINALLY MET UP WITH EMS.
we've been talking about this day for
weeks over the phone and MSN
so it felt really surreal (:

we went to the major shopping parts
and basically walked for the whole day,
so my legs are half dead now.




and then she brought me to Chinatown,
where i saw the above picture.
i never thought i'd shriek at the sight
of yaucharkwais and hanging roast pork
but when you live in a place where
there are hardly any Asians
you get really excited over small things like these.

Chinatown is such an amazing place!
durians, 100 plus, and summore got...

CHAR YIP DAN!
my ultimate favourite eggs!



then we went back to Covent Garden
to look at the above shop, David&Goliath
which is about my favourite shop ever
cause they sell these really cute shirts
but for super expensive ):


what a weird sign.


i kept hoping i'd bump into one of the SpiceGirls
so that they'll give me free tickets to the concert
or anyone famous but no ):

after all that walking my aunt and i
just went for a midnight Tesco run
which was pretty fun cause their supermarkets
here are 10 times the ones in Belfast.
so now my legs and arms are numb edi.


WICKED!!!!!!!

i swear i must must must watch this.

then in Tesco i saw my dream bday cake.
it was a cake with JohnTerry's face on it!
i'm going to buy that for my birthday
and preserve the icing (:

anyways i'm super tired right now
what with all the walking and carrying
and it's almost 4 am, so forgive me
if my post wasn't coherent or made much sense.

more on London when i'm awake!
(:
