day 6-Liverpool-Scotland(Edinburgh)
so started off the day going online in the morning. to talk to some people. cos its about 7 hours behind here. so 8am is 3pm in Singapore. talked to the people i wanted to talk. thanks a lot!! sorry if i seemed a bit distracted and all! but thanks! went down for breakfast. then set off. drove... in the car. slept for quite a bit. was supposed to stop at Lake District. some small village there. there were a lot of farms and scenery around. and the lake looked nice. but didn't stop there in the end. wanted to stay in a B&B but couldn't find it! so decided to continue the journey to Scotland and just go pass Lake District. and guess what? had car sickness... threw up once. maybe its the choc? haha! idk! but didn't feel too good. had a headache too! any way, managed to sleep. so it was okay after that. reached Edinburgh around 4 plus. tried to find a place to stay. drove round and round. alot of places were booked. so only found a hotel at 6? two hours! so the whole day was spent travelling and finding a hotel! but the room is okay... and at least there is free internet! went down for dinner! lagsane! soaked in the bathtub! now online. and watching CSI ny! nice! might try to go online tmr morning(afternoon, singapore time). but for now! sleep!! haha! not really.... just rest.

so.... food that i've wanted to try here

so... its 6am, singapore time, no one awake!!

day 4-London-Liverpool
had breakfast, left the hotel at 11. waited for dad to get the car till about 11.30. then set off for Liverpool. slept for most of the time in the car. got headache. weird. never had car sickness before! stopped by one of the stops for lunch at around 2.15. fish and chips!!! again! will never tire of the fish and chips here! its good! and will not be eating chinese food at all! yay! ate, then continued on the journey. our car had a GPS! so interesting! nice to play with. pics will be up at a later time! reached Liverpool around 3 plus? found our hotel around 4 plus. holiday inn! the room is much better then the past two nights! so nice! went down to the shops to get macs(yes macs!) for dinner. and some water and groceries too! came up, ate, soaked in the bath tub(my house has no bath tub! so bath tubs are great!!) and the slept! didn't go online, so no post! will be online on and off. but mostly posting only. cos its 7 hours behind Singapore time here, so when i'm online at night here, its early in the morning, like 3 or 4 am, who will be awake? and can't go online in the morning much, cos outside, unless before/ after breakfast.

day 5-Liverpool
woke up not too late. had a great breakfast! better then the other hotel's. the other hotel was bad! okay, anwyay, went to see the Liverpool stadium. got a souvenir, and dad got a lot of Liverpool stuff! did a shirt for his collegue and himself. then he walked to Everton stadium. mum and me just stayed at the Liverpool stadium to get some food-hotdog and fries. it's our lunch! dad came back, he ate, then went back to the hotel to put the souvenirs down. went down again, got the chocolates. okay, some chocolates, for souvenirs. but have something else in mind for others!! went back up to put the chocolates down cos we bought a lot!! went to shop... well, we were supposed to go to the dock. but there were so many shops on the way, so went into a shop... i forgot the name. it sold shirts for as low as 1 pound!! bought 4 shirts from there, 2 pounds each! cos so cheap. we spent a long time there, parents.... dad got socks, mum got 3 shirts. went into marks and spencers again, the clothes part this time. only mum bought 4 shirts.

finally made our way to the dock.it was disappointing! cos nothing much there. it was already about 5 plus.and apparently things close around that time, well, most shops. so early. but the uniforms here in Britain are nice!! school uniforms. but i doubt i can survive in the schools here, a bit too different! so we walked back to the hotel. went to the hotel restuarant for dinner. nice!! tomato soup, burger, waffles and ice-cream. eating too much already! went back to the room. slacked!!! the comp couldn't work and had to wait for dad to return. he went somewhere! bathed first! nice bath!!! haha!

hmm.. hey, how was training? what happened? and how's everything in singapore?? i want to know! anyway, will be going back to London after Scotland. can't forget how terrified i was of the tube(underground London train) the first time i went underground and took it! too many shows.......... may not post any more, till London. depends if they have internet! so bye for now! pics will be up sometime...

its like i can't breathe without you
and i'll be lying if i said that i can live without you

had a dream last night and have been thinking about past memories. the happy times that you've trusted me so much and we could talk and talk. i know i have neglected you and have made you feel alone, but i do wish that we could be good friends again. just like before. when it was fun! and we could laugh together, sit together on excursions, talk and not be like strangers. yes, this is my fault. my fault for going off like that whenever i want and not spending time with you. but i want you to know that you are stilll special to me, whether you feel differently now or not. i don't know if you still come here and read all the posts like you used to, which really meant so much. but if you are reading this, then please, can we patch up? i know this may be a little late, or too late, but please?

okay, so today was not too bad... day 3-London
was online till about 5, singapore time. it was 10pm here. 7 hours behind. slept whilst watching something on youtube. woke at 5  plus london time. turned here and there, then slept. woke up for real, had breakfast. toast, strawberry jam, ham! yay! saw platform 9 3/4! from harry potter!!  it was great!! went for a walk to Burkingham palace. walked round. and saw the changing of the guards. and did a video of them marching and playing some band music. took the train to some station, wanted to eat there then wait for the tour to start, but it was too early and not many shops were open. besides, there weren't any food shops. so went on to the tower of London again to eat fish and chips. going to grow fat, but really enjoy it! cos it was so nice!!! but we walked from one station to the next undergroud. cos it was a direct route and we could walk!!! so walked. but very tired. its a seriously long walk! after eating, took the underground train(we took that to get around the whole place. will get a car tmr! thankfully! not more tube!!!) to some station.

met a guide for the harry potter tour. we saw the place where the leaky cauldron was filmed, diagon alley, places where the knight bus was filmed, where the dementors flew pass buildings and distroyed a bridge. all from harry potter. we also learnt a bit about London's history and how some buildings were made. a lot of walking. but it was fun and educational! tired. went to some market place. got some chocolates! and two pens. will be buying the real souvenirs soon, i hope. got a lot of people to buy for! had a drink and cake there, to rest too! walked to marks and spencer there, or theirs is just the M&S sign.got the piggy sweet! so willl bring on training days for you all okay! better eat! went to find Arsenal stadium. long walk! it was okay.... walked back, got lost! asked for directions a lot of times. then finally reached the hotel. it was noisy outside. since there was a park nearby and some concert was going on. wanted to go! but not allowed. dangerous i guess. so went to the hotel room. and just slanking now. very sleepy! will sleep soon! and legs are soo pain!

i'm so sorry, but i love you
(from the song, lies by big bang-its the second song in the playlist)

yeah, i am really sorry for what happened on thursday, all that i did while you trusted me. and kept looking for answers when i couldn't say cos i didn't know the whole thing. its like you really thought that i would do something but i didn't. i really feel guilty about it. i'm sorry.....

so the trip has been okay..

day 1/ day2!!! Singapore airport-heathrow(London)
friday
left the house at 9. thanks for the best wishes for a safe and happy trip and all! Sha!!!!
so went to the airport. checked in, ate dinner, sat on the plane. was the second row on the plane. so far front. the worst part is, the front row, all had young babies. so cos the plane seating was 3,4,3, there were 3 babies. so irritating! kept crying! shouting!! irritance. really. but it was okay on the plane. 12 hours. watched how to train your dragon, a bit of tooth fairy(stopped cos it was boring!), a bit of memoirs of a geisha(ended cos not enough time), heard songs, slept. they had a lot of English artists!! Kesha, Justin bieber.... then koren groups. big bang, epik high, dbsk, suju, shinee. a lot!!! so had a great time. but only slept for 6 hours the most. cos of babies crying and wanted to watch movies/hear music. had a headache on and off too. was bad! but got to drink a lot of soft drink!! and the food was okay. had no appetite for dinner on the plane(it was served at s'pore 1 or 2am)but ate a lot of the breakfast(at least it was about 10am? more realistic! i mean, dinner at 2am??) had tidbits too. so must run more now to get rid of fats!! haha!

landed, at 5 plus. got baggage, then left for the hotel. we reached the hotel at... 7 plus? 8? too early, cannot check in, so we just took the tube(train.. and the routes are super confusing! living in london, the train goes everywhere, but its confusing! and a bit scary.... the train map is so confusing.... and have to keep changing, but at least it beats the jam at the top) to london bridge. it was so quiet cos its saturday and so early. so walked on london bridge, took pics, then went to st paul's church. where prince ___ and princess ____ got married... i forgot who!! bad memory. went for another short breakfast at a shop. got hot chocolate.. mistake! not used to it! haha! so took a bus to the london castle... it was nice! walked round it, so big!! had fish and chips. was great. went back to check into the hotel. got some drinks along the way. cos hotel didn't provide. the room is really small!! but on the 3rd floor! no air con, but there is a nice wind! so not that hot! bathed, slept then went out again at 4 to shop. forgot the place, but it was very big!! then came back to the hotel, and now online! first day pics will be up soon, when i can use the comp again! the houses here are about the same..... most are not apartments... something like bungalows... really great! and its cheaper then Singapore bungalows! haha! moving to Britain will be great! nice houses! but not as well kept. and the ohter things are not as cheap. only houses. guess its the land! so bye for now!!

well, yesturday almost ended well. got a call late at night about something. i don't get it. why can't there be no problems for just one day? one peaceful day!! and have to be disturbed right before going overseas. thanks for all the help from two of you though. i wanted the day to end perfectly. guess i must erase the last unpleasent part of the day. this trip, just going to unwind and let go! and forget all other unpleasent things! will bring back souvenirs!!

today
on the phone, i sounded angry.... and mind you, people around me could hear every word. cos yes, i was angry. and if i hadn't be on the bus, i would have shouted on the phone. i know you have problems. but you are still stubborn. still don't want to listen to advice. still think of only the bad consequences. you may be their only hope now. so its your choice. but please, you know when you tell someone about your problem, it may become theirs too. so don't add on unneccesary stress to people okay. sometimes i get pissed off with the things you do. so, i'm going to be overseas. you can't text or call me, cos phone willl be off most of the time. if you do, then will waste money. you know who else can help you. cos i've made it clear already. i really want to enjoy this holiday without stress about you for once.

so today's YOG training was fun! well, not too bad. did the same things. but the heart changed. and we formed the word respect in the rectangle formation. getting darker and darker every day under the blazing hot sun. any way, thanks a lot to you all for everything. have a feeling of belonging again!!!!! <3 you all!!! :)

going off to the airport soon, then to enjoyment!!! yay!!! relaxation!!!! okay, so bye!

after training, went with Jacob, Trisha and Yoges to Ikea to eat. took a lot of unglam shots. nice! had fun, laughing, talking, eating, joking. wonderful memories. took a lot of pics!!!hehe! then went home with yoges. bathed, went to vivo. giant, walked round. met Joyce! then Yoges left.

went to get tickets for 'killing' then wondered around, deciding what to eat for lunch. talked talked that we walked aimlessly. finally decided on kopitiam. had fried carrot cake! talked about a lot of things.:) then went for the show. it was nice! shared a drink. iced lemon tea. first time drinking that!!! didn't even finish 1/4 of it after the show. drank so little. but the show was so funny! laugh so much!!! haha! walked round vivo again to try to finish the drink. went into the cd shop. then to page one. got a call to go home. so left page one. and went home! Joyce inspired me to go to ACJC. hehe!!! maybe that's where i'll end up one day! so any way, thanks a lot for everything!!!! :)
