I'm high but I'm grounded.

Hello everybody, I’m finally back!
The ten days UK trip has been a great experience for me.
From the very first minute to the last – awesome!
For one, it’s my first time on the plane alone.
Ahem, I’m finally big girl now.
HAHAHAHA!
Here are some of the pictures that I haven’t posted in the previous entries.
Quite a handful of them, plus some new ones from the last few days.
Hope you’ll love them!
?
The journey back was quite bad though.
I got a seat next to this really really REALLY fat African guy.
& I think he took up like 1/5 of my seat as well.
When the person in front of him reclined his seat,
this guy cannot even extend his folded table!
You can IMAGINE how HUGE he is!
Oh well, but I think I lied on his arm when I fell asleep.
(quite comfortable)
HAHAHAHA!
& I think the ticket back sort of gave me a hint that the trip is going to be a torturous one already.
Look at my board pass! It says PMS!
LOL.
The trip has been fantastic.
So good that it has made me withdraw almost all my fortune from my bank account.
So the balance is like super unhealthy now.
HAHAHA!
I better make more money now!
ROAR.

boo!
i’m also back from the short trip t london.
the places you’ve been t london were like the same as mine lah!
i didn’t venture out of london ’cause of the short time frame.
- london’s tube is really like a small tube.
- everyone is like rushing here and there.
- the expenses for food is enough t kill.
- i hate converting pounds back t sgd!
- the parliament house and the big ben are like the best looking architecture i’ve ever seen!
and i went t Primark near MarbleArch station.
omg, everything is damn cheap lah!!!
almost couldn’t control myself.
shoes were selling for 2 pounds?!!!

i did them with photoscape janice! :D
try it too.
and time REALLY flies! ten days just whizzed by like that!

hello elizabeth!
primark was really Awesome with a capital A! hahaha.
and the tube system is old but very extensive, i’m impressed!
food was definitely expensive and sucked. except for some chinese food in chinatown.
but i bet the good food is definitely more expensive so a poor bloke for me sure didn’t get the chance for good food. haha.
fish and chips was great though! love them.
i didn’t have any pounds left to convert to sg dollars. hahaha.
i really like portobello road. something like a flea market area there with stalls set up by differnt people, totally rocks my socks.
:)

June 27th, 2009 at 5:58 pm
The sky there looks awesome! Was the currency exchange reasonable?
June 27th, 2009 at 11:36 pm
hello min!
IA ah? hmm get a good A line skirt & black pants?
Don’t get skirts that are too short too, if not it won’t be suitable for work.
If you don’t want to get stucked with boring blouses everyday, you can try layer clothes!
Or get vests, jackets etc.
Something interesting like turtle necks or formal looking suspenders can look cool too.
Of course, get nice comfortable shoes too.
Good luck for IA! :)
June 27th, 2009 at 11:37 pm
the exchange rate when i went there was 2.4.
not exactly very good for me lah. but oh well, no choice!
still need to spend the money ultimately.
