| London and other stuff |
[Jul. 15th, 2008|03:37 pm] |
I've avoided posting about London because... I only took two pictures. XDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Or well, five. But the three other ones are from Madame Tussauds, and it's not that interesting u_u
Basically, it's one picture of Eivind on a bridge in Camden Town and one random shot of random shops in Camden. So this post is totally not gonna be like last post from London XD I'll keep it short ;D
Well uh, I had a greeeat time!! XD I was a bit grumpy now and then, but I always get in that mood when I go somewhere. Dunno why though.
We arrived late at the airport (the plane was delayed TWICE), so we took a cab to the hotel. But it got really expensive, however way more cheap than what it would've been in Norway.
The hotel was ok, but at the same time quite sucky. The rooms wasn't in the same building where you checked in, and the staircases were narrow and they had no elevator. So with superheavy suitcases we had to climb four floors, and we were already fucking exhausted, so we went to bed at once we got into the room.
We went to Camden Town the second day, but we got there so early that nothing had opened yet XDDDD FAIL. So we had to wait for like 1 hour before things started to open. And 2 hours before the shops we wanted to visit opened (Sai Sai and GLP).
I bought a few things (pictuuure under all this text XD) and my boyfriend is such a fag so the only thing he bought was a feather boa. XDD And some fake VW blingbling from Sai Sai.
The third day we went to Picadilly Circus and tried to find a Vivienne Westood store that was supposed to be located close to Picadilly and/or Oxford Circus somewhere, but nah, we didn't find it :v
So we went to Japan Center and I bought an issue of Ranzuki (july), and then we headed to China Town to find the purikura maschine. We found it with some text message help from ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) keekers1, but it was closed this day ;_; sucked.
Then we went to Harrods, and tried to find the VW clothes there, and after some rounds in the clothes section, we found them, yay. I was tempted to buy some of her jewelry (the only thing I could afford XD), but I just... couldn't. If you know what I mean. If I bought it I would have limited money to use for the rest of the trip.
So we went to the Chocolate/cake area and bought ourself something tasty to eat. Eivind got himself a strawberry cakethingy and I got myself a crème brûlée♥
After that we went to Madame Tussauds 8D good times.
The fourth day was departure day XD but we got up really early, like 7 AM, and our airplane didn't leave before like 8 PM, so we had too much time. XD
We basically just went to Victoria (where we were supposed to take the train to Gatwick) and walked around before I got so grumpy by walking that we went straight to Gatwick XDDDDD sorry baby...
I must say I was kinda proud of myself for being able to navigate through London all by myself without any FAILs :DD We only used the Underground, and it is pretty easy in itself, but usually I'm too much of a wimp to make choices like where to go and such. The only thing I really needed help for was the Eastbound and Westbound platform thing, I didn't know about them before Eivind told me XDD haha.
Well, yeah. London was really awesome~ I totally want to there again. Ho ha.
STUFF I GOT:
Fake Angelic Pretty bag (which has just... broke. XD I can probably get my dad to fix it though) from Sai Sai and K-star sweater from GLP. I also got a fake VW bracelet but I forgot to take picture of it. It's also too big, and the other day I managed to brake it XDD
Tons of socks and tights from random shops in Camden Town.
Ranzuki magazine.
Nintendo DS Lite, protective case. Which I got at Gatwick's tax-free. I got the Pokémon Pearl game in Oslo (way cheaper than what the price says hohoho. Used-store yanno, and Eivind sold some old games and DVD's he didn't need/want♥)
I also bought myself a JSG parka from Eurogal when I came home:
aaaaaaand a elder Egg issue 8DD (not that old though). And ignore the Snack A Jack x.x
I really recommend Eurogal!! The seller is really nice, and sends it the next day you've paid.
AND ALSO ALSO, I got myself a new mp3-player!! My Zen Vision:M went nuts some day and we sent it back to reparation (to the place I bought it; Datakjeden). But I never got it back, so I got it replaced for a totally brand new one 8DDD
And luckily I was able to pick it up in Oslo, because the Datakjeden in Oslo is the one that send stuff to the one up in north. XD
Yeah...Backstreet Boys XDD and Hanoi Rocks' cd cover turn up everywhere x.x
I also went to this meet-up thingy called J-rock tea party (altho' I don't get why they call it that when it's more like a... bbq. XD), it was really cozy, untill it started storming and raining like shit.
I didn't take any pictures ._. so I'm stealing the link to oukokuniji's photobucket album with pictarz from the meet-up; cleek. The password is teapartey ;D
And upcoming Friday there's a petite j-fashion meet-up, and I promise I'll take pictures!!!! >-< I really look forward to it too. Lots of people I want to meet irl.
*edit*
Totally forgot about some shit.
I and Eivind went camping. It really sucked though, because we had to sleep on fawking rocks and it started raining at night +++ but then again it was kind of ~*ROMANSHIKKU*~ except for not. There was this tree right next to our tent which kept on creaking and we were fucking scared because we were afraid it might fall over us XDD
The nature was very pretty though.
There's more serious things I want to ramble about, but I'll post it later.

You photobucket link failed :V
And I have that mp3-player too 8D Only with not as much space on. Yours has like.. 16gb, was it? 18?
Mine just got 4gb XD
Pokemon Pearl kicks ass. Sadly though, I haven't really played it in a long time. x.x; All the stuff you got looks so cute. I love the sweater in the first picture. :D
Sounds like you had a great time. :P
Yessss, Pokeman Pearl is awesomeeee. XD I've just reached the Pokémon league. But my pokemans suck... haha XD
Thanks!
Yes I had! And I'm still having it quite awesomely. XDD
Sweeet. I can't remember where I'm at in Pokemon. I think I was taking a break from training and capturing to get some of my most used pokemon trophies in the judging area in Cerulian {I think?} city. If you don't already know about it, you can get your pokemanz judged on how cute and tough they look {I believe there might be one or two more categories but I forgot}. If they win 1st place they appear in the hall of fame inside the building and they're ultimately much happier.
Anywho, the photobucket is locked by password.
Oh, lmfao. Scratch that last part. I didn't see you said the password up there. X3 D'oh!
Cerulian City is in the previous games XD I think the Pokémon contest located in Hearthome city or w/e the name is XDD
And yesss, I know about them 8DD they've been there since the Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald games, and I've played them before ^^ I've won cool contest, cute contest and beauty contest 8DD I have though left.
Oh well w/e. I really don't understand much of whats going on in the newer Pokemon games and series. I'm still only familiar with the first 151 Pokemon and the original Red/Blue/Yellow games. XD
Either way, it's fun. I like competing against my friends. ^^
Yes, they've gone a little crazy with all these Pokemons x-x
The clothes you got are great <3
And the other things too XD
