lush
jen's favorite word. anyhoo, today we had breakfast and stayed out the whole day shopping - oh my poor feet. we went to H&M which sadly was a little disspointing, but i managed to spend some moolah on a coat and a sweater. then we took on Primark which is like MCC on tuesday x about 1000, with even ruder people and people changing in the aisles lol. but hoo boy those clothes are cheeeeap. $65 canadian for 3 sweaters, one dress, and 1 long sleever. we had lunch at starbucks where the girl forgot to charge me for my drink so all i paid for was and awesome egg sandwhich that had bean sprouts on it. but it's all good cuz that egg sandwhich cost me a whopping $4.50 CAD. i can buy three cartons of eggs with that (i don't cuz i buy the free range kind...but i COULD). BUT we are not thinking about the money, we are having a good time (sorry phil). umm we walked through this department store that had all kindsa designers like Ralph Lauren and D&G and Chanel and stuff but mostly only bags and jewelry and stuff, and more notably Ted Baker, of whose i own a black sweater i purchased at value village, and whose scarves cost around £35 ($70ish). eek! then we went back to camden market and finished our present shopping and then went to covent garden for supper. we ate at Bossleys i think, and i ordered lasagna but got lasagna soup which i think may have had cream mixed into everything. but the pecan tart for dessert was greeeat. then we wandered...and wandered...and wandered like a full tube station's distance and stumbled into Trafalgar square which jen had not been able to find when she was here last with Meghan, so sweet, and theeeeeeeeen we came back to our hostel where we are now glued to the dirtydirty screens. tomorrow its off to ireland!
London calling baby
sooooo i just completed a marathon 14 hours of sleep. the hostel is nice, we're in an all-girls 19 bed dorm, and the internet is free! umm yesterday i landed at 8:45am and i overheard a girl on my flight saying she had to take a train to go home yet so i asked if i could go to paddington station with her and she was like "yeah 'course you can!" (in a greeeat accent) so we took the express train to paddington train station cuz that's where i was going to meet jen and this girls (Grace) train only left in an hour so we just hung out and talked. The train was not cheap, but i feel like it was worth it cuz this girl was really cool and we even ended up talking a bit about that I was a Christian and stuff. after she left then i went to some tables and basically fell asleep on one of them, and woke up in a little pool of drool (haha gross), and then i went to starbucks and had the worst hot chocolate of my life (again, i've had it there before, somehow thought it would've changed), and waited for jen. after we dropped our stuff off at the hostel we went to get "lunch" which was £1.20 for two pieces of peanut butter on toast - BUT it was reeeeeally good cuz there bread is a little different here - crunchier or something. anyways, and then we went to camden market (so cool) and i bought some cool stuff and we went to a teeny tea house that we are going back to take pictures of, and then decided to come back and go to sleep...at 6:30pm. and now it's the morning and we're going to H&M!!!!!!!! ok bye.
