(too bad we couldn't cuddle them)
so while my back was turned and was oogling at the cute itsy bunnies..
i felt something pushing my backpack
i thot it was some kid who wanted to get a closer look at the bunnies

something big brown and hairy stared at me
i squealed and let him push his way up front
everyone one else parted to let him thru

grrr.

the beginning of the twist

London: 09.26AM
Home: 5PM-ish

the trip to Madame Tussauds two days ago was great. Managed to get a picture with Captain Jack Sparrows and many other wax figures. But i was disappointed to find that many of the other idols were removed cuz they keep changing the lineup. Madame Tussauds IS kinda small.. Smaller than i've imagined uh.
can't find Jude Law or Heath Ledger (not sure if he's even made)
i enjoyed the day out tho (:
madame tussauds was 21.50 pounds

the next day we went to watch a movie at O2 Vue Cinema.
OMG the place is so goddamn big.
heh
and and and
the nachos are TO DIE FOR!
i swear they are so delicious that i bought a big serving AFTER the movie
my little brother would so love this.
he loves cinema nachos (:
the movie was Over Her Dead Body starring the eversogorgeous Eva Longoria
and some other stars. oh and the American Pie couple!
haha i cant remember their names for nuts. sorry!

after the movie we went out into the cold to the Greenwich Park
its been said that people from all over would be lying in the park sunbathing
doing fun park stuff in the summer
but post winter its still a bit crowded
tho there wouldn't be much people willing to stay long in one place for more than 15 minutes
it was a foggy/misty afternoon tho
the view was breathtaking! (literally too as the hill was kinda steep ahha)

and and and
we bought three tickets to attend the NME Aftershow Party 2008 at the Indigo @ O2!!
GAHHH! :D
O2 is this wonderfully big place where big stars used to come over and perform their concerts at.
NME is this wonderful magazine published in the UK covering wonderful indie British bands like The Kooks, Boy Kill Boy, The White Stripes etc.
This year's afterparty will feature names like The Futureheads and Club NME DJs Filthy Dukes, Lady Hawkes etc.
I know that there'll be other big stars making appearences throughout the show.
cuz last year's party had Oasis Gallaghers, the Artic Monkeys and Paul McCartney in the crowd!¬
whoa.

starts at 2300 til around 0200 to 0400
above 18's only! woots
oh i so wish Enter Shikari or Bloc Party will attend
and play
live
*swoon
love them so

cant wait!

day four

London: 09.42AM
Singapore: 05.44PM

yesterday we stayed home and cooked NASI LEMAK for everyone.
they were so looking forward to having a Singaporean dish. the adults mostly.
cuz they missed having Asian food and it has been some time when they last came to sunny SG.

there were 11 of us in total.
all the dishes turned up good. especially the rice! yipee¬
heee we were so proud of ourselves *beams
we volunteered to cook another Singaporean dish for them before we go.
anyone have any suggestions on what to cook?

then after dinner, we were pooped.
prim's cousins offered to be our waiters and served us
banana splits. yummmy!
it was hilarious the way they acted out the restaurant scene in real time
especially the scuffles in the kitchen
too cute
even the parents 'layan' them by asking them to take their orders and
complaining about the state of their drinks
one waiter even got reprimanded when he wiped the forehead of one of the 'customers'
utter chaos.

that was what i find i really liked in London
the family bond.
everyone is so close to each other
they spend so much time together
that they know what they like
they know how exactly to annoy the other person
heh
i guess having cold cold weather does show how cozy it is to stay at home with the family
the dark streets and threatening crime rates play a part to keep everyone home early too
it is really so different in Singapore

well we are getting ready to go to Madame Tussaud's now.
the famous wax museum.
excited.
grr but it costs £21.50 which translates to around S$65
ahhh what to do?..

i'm still a tourist (:
so its a must!

and and and
its in The Sun that Liam Gallagher (yes! what's the story, morning glory?)
just got married like a week ago and is STILL in London
till next week in which he will fly off to godknowswhere
wow. what if..
we get a glimpse of tt ohsofamous rockstar?
wow.

what if.

a getaway

time now: 12.35AM
time back home: 8.25PM

oh wow.
they sure werent joking when they said its gonna be chilly here in London!
hahah yeahh
we reached london safely. Via Qatar Airways.
my second time on a plane since Pri 6.
sure din miss the air pressure pain of the plane desending.
grrr. twice somemore due to the stopover at doha.

now stayg in prim cousin's house. a cozy little place.
overlooking the Thames river. damn cool sia. gonna take pictures later.
the double bunked bed overlooks the river.
big ben is gorgeous at night.
gahh so many things to see!

prim's uncle said he might bring us over to emirates stadium.
heheh jason will get mighty jealous.

cant wait to meet everybody.
breathing the chilly london air.
stealing glances at the people.
gosh gosh gosh
a whole new experience for me
of a lifetime!
what with all the food
the currency in pounds and pennys
the language
the questions
ohh and the television commercials are cool!
and funny too but prim doesnt think so
she keeps giving me a funny look everytime i burst out laughing

heee
tag my board then!
will update on our adventures when i can (:
now gonna get ready to shop for foodstuff and go to Canary Wharf.
xoxo

missing everyone <3

goodbye, she said

all my bags are packed
i'm ready to go
i'm standing here outside your door
i hate to wake you up to say goodbye

yeah me and primlove are leaving for the land of the Beatles, where God is keeping an eye over the Queen, where the whole mods-vespa-quadrophenia-madness started.
yesh i'm speaking of the United Kingdom!
we'll be there for two whole effing weeks. in the cold cold weather. the start of spring with the beautiful trees and other flora awakened from winter's slumber.
'take picture take picture!' as VLC like to say.
hell yes we will 'take picture!' and loads of it too.
leaving on 15th Feb and returning back on 1st of March.
.
one of the highlights will be the london gigs.
enter shikari
jimmy eat world
plain white t's
the audition
will all be in london at the same time we'll be there
.
i so hope we'll get to witness any of them in their glory
performing live
oh gosh
i wish i wish
.
this will be the opportunity of a lifetime.
am so looking forward to it.
pray for us dear friends.
for our safety.
everyone will be missed.

heyho. LET'S GO!

look out London, here we come!
