Never thought that I'd catch this Lovebug again..


Guess what Guess what?! I started to learn Lovebug yesterday and I know it pretty well now (huhu still I made a few slips XD). I even made a quick "preview" for you guys! Enjoy! (this is for Elin ;)

Haven't written for a while...
My brother turned 14 (took me forever to figure that out XD) this friday so as a b-day gift we went to the cinema (I paid!). We saw "Get Smart", I wasn't like very eager to see the movie because I thought it just be some crappy comedy movie but my brother wanted to see it so why not? I like Anne Hathaway! :D
It was nothing like I had imagend, it was a very down to earth, yet funny and romantic. With Steve Carell you almost automatically think it's something hilarious but non-serious, like a re-make of Johnny English. I actually thought it was really good, almost touching.
I'll say it's James Bond for younger and with more comedy. I strongly recommend :)

I went to see a friend today in town, it was nice just to walk in town for a change and not being in school. I want to buy new tights really bad, like dark yellow ones , (new pari of) white ones or turquoise ones. Found some in H&M but alas not my size. :(
Instead I found a gorgeous pair of red skinny I've wanted for so long. When we went into the fitting rooms, we start to smell something. Uh sweat on feet! We went further down the fitting room hoping it would stop smelling but right on the contrary it becomes worse. MAN, it was some serious STINK, geeesh it was like soemone had run marathon in 20 years in the same shoes and decided to take them off in the fitting rooms in H&M. There even came in a woman who sprayed perfume...AWFUL!

I spy....a Tiffany? XD

The Prince, the magazine and the review

Have you ever seen such beautiful magazine? XD (swe translated: Har du någonsin skådat en sån här vacker tidning?)

I bought this beautiful mag. today. I've been riding the bike to the trainstation twice hoping that they would have the magazine, but they didn't. It was even one time I took the bike to the trainstation JUST to buy the magazine (it was the depressing day when I decided to go on the JB strike). I asked them twice, the first time the old woman said: We get foreign magazines on wednesday, come back then. I came back on that Wednesday, were was the mags.? I asked again, another woman directed me to ask some man who would know better. He said: we usually get Rolling Stone on fridays. I was too depressed to go back that friday so I went there today (since I almost didnt have school anyway) And there it was, I rush of happiness just filled me and I couldn't wait t get home to read it.

-end of Tiffany's not intressting story about her and her persuit of Rolling stone Love-

If you have the guts, why not keep reading about Narnia; Prince Caspian? ;) Contains delicious spoilers XD
Yupp, I saw it the second time yesterday and it was as good as ever (if not better), too bad I knew what was going to happen though XD Like..herk..the..herk..kissing scene. The first time it was really unexpected I never would have thought in my wildest dreams, I swear. That was also why it was so funny. Okej let's start from the beginning.

I really didn't like the first impression of this movie,I get that Andrew (the director) wanted to as dramatic as Blitz and all that but Narnia is after all a childrens movie. Well it should be, but I guess it targets a older group of people, which is great because now I can be less ashamed of liking the movies so much XD I also soon became very anxious to see what happend to the Pevensie's but the change from Narnia to the real world was really good.
The first scenes with the Pevensie's are absolutely my favourites in the whole movie, hahah Phyllis is there an uglier name than that? XD I like the fact that the you don't see who it is fighting int he beginning because you think it's Edmund (think the first movie) but you get surprised when it's Peter. (I said delicious spoilers!) MAAAAAAN, Skandar is hot in that cap geeesh! (Ok, that's not a part of the review....forget that) XD

Differnt from the first movie is that the journey to the "big battle" is not as interessting this time, to be honest the Pevensie's part is kinda bring if your not a hormone filled girl who screams "ED!" everytime Skandar comes on screen. (No names mantioned....)
I LOVE when Capsian and the Pevensie's finally meet, even the first tension beween you-know-who with the good hair and you-know-who in make-up (Var hittar man kajal i Narnia?! XD)
The rest from there was awesome, I especially liked the bit when the dwarf tricked Caspian to revive the White witch. It is that little twist that make the movie real and good. (Like Edmund being "evil" in the first movie) And then who saves the day?!?! (say it!) Edmund!!! :D

In the end I thought it was a really good movie, with balance between great comedy, awesome romance (made me laugh more than the jokes) and action. I guess there are more action than fantasy story in this but it was very well done, it could been so bad and end up like some lord or the rings slaughter movie. XD (well maybe not..)
The two movies are very different, the first one has very much heart and story and this one had action and hormones. XD As a movie I think the first movie is better, I think I like the sequel so much because I've gotten so attached to the characters and Caspian also being great. :D

Can't wait for "The voyage of the dawn treader", it'll be very different without Susan and Peter though :(. YEAY for Edmund! :D

Videogirl rocked my world

O-M-G! Did you hear ? I'm dating a Jonas Brother. It's SO hot!
Believe it or not, I GOT THE CD TODAY! XD I really felt that I was about to crack today or tomorrow. I was starting to doubt that the CD would actually come but it is when you let your guard down it it strikes you rite? XD
The whole thing was kinda funny, when I woke up this morning and my sister said; Tiff you're lucky I dreamt that you got your CD, so you are getting it today.
There's a inside story about that, my sister said that she have had these dreams sometimes. It could be like one day when we are watching "Suite life of Zack and Cody" and she'll say I dreamt or had a feeling that it would be this episode. And it happends not just once, like two or three times. But it's not like something I've taken seriously, I mean "Sutie life" episodes goes in reprise all the time. XD But then she said that about my CD today and I gave it a second thought, it is really creepy! XD
The CD is.....flawless, absolutely amazing. I can like die for the CD, it's freakishly awesome. I could go on for hours about it, but I really have to go and sleep. See Ya! :D

(Narnia; Capsian was awesome, I'm gonna tell you more about it another day. :D)

The invisible post

Rain, rain and more rain. We're having a depressing rain period over here, got sun? Send over some pls! XD

I don't know if any of you noticed that I posted a entry last night about messing up my layout, it was awful. I found new layouts and got all crazy over them but then the code didn't work and everything was messed up. In the end I had to revert back to classic template and use my old layout. But I fixed everything today, even got the layout I wanted yesterday, WIHOO :D
I really like this one, but when I chanegd layout all my gadgets disappeared with it. I've added the most of them back, changed poll, put my youtube channel thing in the bottom, the links. I'm still thinking about the music player I had, but I really didn't liked the fact that the song starts off itself everytime you enter my blog, kinda annoying (especially when I check my blog everyday XD)

Hope you like it AND vote on the poll! :D
(I'm going to see Narnia; Prince Caspian AGAIN XD today and you can look forward to a proper evaluation of the movie later! ;)

Why I suffer

Lu all! XD I'm still here listening to anti-Jonas Brothers songs, the strike is really tearing me. To be honest I don't know how much longer I can stand it, my sister cracked today (well she kinda followed the strike just to support me XD). Well we can see this as a test of self-control, how much I can handle this yearning before I toatlly lose it XD.
I played some JB songs on the guitar last weekend and it made me miss the real songs so much! :'( The crack is near, I tell you!

Monday.....new day in school. I think we've had all our new lessons and new teacher by now. We had Psychology today, I was very sceptic (if your remember) but I'm happy to say that I'm really looking forward reading this subject. My first impression of the new teacher was: Awesomeness XD She's this this high professor, who have taught in UK and everything but she's also very ...youthful and energetic, you know, eager to teach. She might teach differently because she used to teach university students but when she talks, she have this charisma that make you listen and in that way you also remember most of the things she says.
She sometimes uses psychology terms you don't understand and doesn't explain them, which can be confusing. We'll just have to tell her right? XD

We started with what Psychology was in general which was good because I have no idea (lol), she started to about all these different areas, such as study about dreams, behavious and brains. In that moment I thought that this subject would be awesome, because I love the fact that all those things are kinda mysterious and maybe insane but they have scientific proves.
She told us about these hysteria "illnesses", like there was this girl who took care of her dying father and one day he had died in her arms. When they buried her father she suddenly became paralyzed in one arm and she had no idea why. Then she saw some psychologists and they found out about her father dying in her arms, then everything just vanished she had feeling in her arm again. It was all in her head, unconciously.

Yeah, basically when something dramatic or traumatic happens to you could get weird symptoms like paralysis, blindness, some sort of aches and etc. Which made me start think about my weird stomach ache I've had lately (and stil having). It started on Thursday evening (last week). The weird thing is when I wake up in the morning I think I'm all fine, it doesn't hurt but then a couple of minutes after I've gotten up it starts again. I've like tried everything "western medicine" (as my mum calls it), chinese medicine, chinese ointments, tea, coke....and so on. It's loads better now but still I feel there's soemthing bothering me in there. XD Maybe it's just some regular stomach problems (...diarrhea) but why haven't I gone to the toiletts? Or MAYBE it's because of the absence of Jonas Brothers songs which have made me unconciously miserable or something that gave me this stomach ache! XD (Maaahhaaa XD)
Well, I've never had stomach ache during 5 days before!


Me finding a way in London XD

Who created Matrix? [edited]

Welcome to a new LAYOUT! Hehe, I actually changed layout just a couple of days ago and I really liked that one but i recently upgraded my blogger to this new layout thingy and it uses XML codes and not HTML codes, which my regular layouts are. Somehow I found this layout with XML codes, I found out later how I could use HTML codes on my new layout thing.
I'm actually not very fond of this one but it'll do for a while. I've added a music player with a nice song while reading my nice blog. XD There's also a random poll on the menu, make sure to vote even if it's weird. ;) Furthest down on my blog I've put up my Youtube channel, some of my videos are up (? you mean down XD) there, check them out and give me some views! ;) hu-hu

School's rolling, eventually I'll get used to have French on Borgar (I guess...). I have a new teacher in a new subject, Religion. New teachers are always scary, so much is on even in the very beginning. Almost everything is decided the first time the teachers says something, in a couple of minutes we'll know what kind of teacher she/he is and immediately know how to act. Cruel first impression.
I also started Philosophy, geesh already from the first lesson I knew that this was one more subject that'll slowly tear me apart...XD But there was one awesome thing in our first Philosophy lesson, we were talking about things we actually knew and everyone staretd to question everything; do you really see what you see, so you really know what you know, blabla. Then someone mentioned Matrix, that we didn't know for sure that we all didn't just live in some computer world. Then someone else says really seriously: Well it's not true, we created Matrix! so awesome! XD)
On Monday starts Psychology, can't wait to see how that's going...(sarcastic -_-)
Isn't it ironic? In a time when the fans listens as most to JB, I'm not listening at all...... How will this end?

Poning Zac Efron and tasting the celeb-life[edited]

Yesterday was an absolutely crazy day. First I had school, which is was pretty okey except Borgar. XD Jk.

I came home after school I turned on an episode of Heroes, I've missed the show, can't wait until it comes out.
ANYHOW that's not the story, around 5 o'clock I was on my laptop doing regular things; comment blogs, check jbfan.org, msn..imeem. OH SNAP Jonas Brothers were online (it was Joe online on their account) and apparently Nick also made a personal account. I wrote some comments to them both, Joe wrote back in his usual way: one word sentences. Here comes crazy thing numer one: Nick wrote back to me (freaked out XD), LONG comments hahaha XD TWICE! (Crazy thing number two:)Then I comment his blog entry and he re comment my comment, believe it or not I've joked with Nick Jonas! (How mad is that?)
Then on JB's account I see someone called Zac Efron have been commenting them, I thought it was just some poser but checked him out anyway. Looked like a regular account, maybe a poser but I didn't know for sure but I saw that this person was online, so I gave it a shot. I made a comment asking him how HSM3 was going. He answered almost immediately that is was very well. I wasn't still convinced it was him, but I didn't think much about that I was still so overwhelmed that both Joe and Nick had written to me and I desperately commented them back hoping for answers.
Then I wrote to Zac that I couldn't wait for HSM3 (which is a lie XD) and that I've been listening to "Now or Never" like some drug addict. (which IS TRUE)

I think it was about this time, I did some comment stalking, reading Zacs and Joe's comments to each other. Apparently Joe had asked about Zac's girlfriend (Vanessa) or someone and Zac said that she had just got over a cold and asked Joe how his girlfriend was. Joe said, Dude I'm single now and it sucks (MAHAHA XD) Here comes the interesting part.
Then Zac said; last time I heard you were going out with Lucy . (Lucy?! Who the hell is Lucy?!?! XD) I mean if this was a poser he/she couldn't just pull a name out of nowhere, because this is the real Joe Jonas. Joe replied: Lucy as in Lucy Hale? (See Joe knew who Zac was talking about, how could a poser know that? I didn't even know about Lucy Hale, hey I know enerything XD)


After that I was pretty convinced he really was Zac Efron (btw, he said he was at his cousins Mandy, someone who knows he Zac has a cousin called Mandy?)
(Crazy thing number 3:) Next he wrote tome: Haha, I hope you stay addicted. haha. (Zac Efron told me to stay addicted, how wicked is that XD) Then I said: Haha, you'd like that huh. I see you're talking to Jonas brothers, you haven't met for a while rite? (met at kids choice awards 07, or before) Miss them? He replied: Yeah, we haven't talked for so long anf (yeah he wrote anf XD) they are like my little buddies, well not Kevin because I think he's older than me.

All this time, I was very excited to get new comments on my profile because I hoped that it was from JB but no, ZAC EFRON. I even screamt out loud once, Zac I don't want you! I want Nick to write to me!(I was spoiled, let'sget back to that later)

I wrote back to him: yeah nice that you guys get along. Kevin is actually the same age as you, aren't you born 1987?
And he keeps replying: Yeah we are but I dunno what month he was born they told me a long time ago.
Here comes the pone, I looked up Zacs birthday it was October sometime. MAHAHA I laughed and wrote to him: Zac actually you are older than Kevin, Kevin's b-day is in November! HAHA this is so funny *geessh thanks for the laugh XD*
(Crazy thing number 4:) I LAUGHED so hard for real, I just owned a celeb. it felt AWESOME! XD

Well then unfortunately Zac logged off and neither Nick or Joe replied my comments. I think it was when I logged off this kinda ego monster started to grow larger and larger in me. I don't really know what happend but I guess I was so keen to be in there, friends with celebs or something because I've seen people on imeem becoming sorta close with them. I guess I just wondered why I couldn't be one of those.
Then when I went online again later that evening I saw them were online again. Tried to make them comment me back, apparently Kevin had also made an account. I commented him several times without luck. At the same time more and more people added me as a friend on imeem, which made my ego monster grow even more.
More and more I thought over why they didn't comment me back, I became desperate. I was like some obesessed stalking all their comments and didn't felt like talk to any of friends on MSN, I just wanted to talk to THEM. It was really scary, it took me a while before realizing how I was acting. I'm really not cut out for famous life, I would let it go to my head, I would I know that now.

Today I just let it go, I don't care anymore. It doesn't matter if they write back or not, what did it give me? Happiness for 5 minutes and then a addiction to get more?
For real I let it go, I cared too much when you do that the more you'll get hurt. I need to learn how to let go.

Malmö Borgar school here we go

School is on!
The schedule is pretty OK, two lessons on Wedensday...not bad. XD
I just don't like the fact that non of our lessons is actually in our school. They're renovating my whole school so (actually almost all the schools in Malmö is doing it, at the same time smart huh? XD) we have to go to other schools for lessons or the ever charming baracks. For me I have French lessons in Malmö Borgar, that's about 15-20 minutes walk from my school. And I just can't wait that all my prejudice about Borgar kids comes true, tomorrow is going to be torture! XD

Sorry guys, I'm listening to "Now or Never" like some drug addict. PLEASE HELP ME, oh you almighty CD please come soon! *This is Tiffany going insane for real*


Haha, I bought this really cool LP disc in London of JB's single SOS. EPIC! XD

Holy Rebellioness

Guys! I'm mad and I'm on a strike!
Since yesterday evening I've decided NO MORE listening to Jonas Brothers until my CD arrives. It is a riot!
I am not kidding, I'm dead serious (I didn't even listen to Play My Music on the Camp Rock CD when I was in the car!) I am mad and I figured out that when I listened to JB I just got more depressed and angry. Sorry boys (and Manda) no offence but...BLAME IT ON THE CD!
So what am I doing when I can't listen to Jonas Brothers? I'm drugging High school musical, HAHAHA I know it's pathetic, but deperate times calls for deperate mesures. Besides the new song (from the new movie) is not all that bad, or maybe it's something I made up for myself because I can't listen to what I actually like. XD I've also been listening to the Beatles, Cobra Starship and Mayday Parade, which is kinda refreshing.

School tomorrow...and I'm kinda OK with it. But I know I'll take it back after the end of the week. XD Well good thing with beginning school is the take-it-easy period in the beginning, rite ? ;) I've seen our schedule and it confuses me, hopefully there'll be some light over it tomorrow.

I'm actually watching High school musical (the first) right now. I've realized as a whole movie HSM is slightly better than Camp Rock, you know storywise. It feels like a real musical but modernized and..young XD. Camp Rock is more like a family movie only with unusally much singing. But you all know which soundtrack I like the best. :D

You know what High School Musical have always been like my guilty pleasure, I think it's dorky and lame but at the same time I can't get enough. XD But you know what? I'm glad that I was there when it happened, HSM really is a phenomenon. You know why? Because of cute actors /actresses, catchy songs and cool dances, that's really everything that needs to catch the hearts of 12 year old girls around the world.
MAN, the actors/actresses suck in this first movie XD. You can see how their lines go through the head then out from their mouth, you can really see OH NOW it's my line and now I have to this. They sure improve int he sequel though. Zac looks like such a dork in the first movie and it's not even him singing in the movie, which I strongly dislike because Zac is a great singer but I guess Disney channel didn't think so.


High School Musical 3, hitting the big screen October 24th :)

Summer two thousand eight


This picture pretty much says everything of my summer this year. XD As said many times before this summer has been the very best in my life (so far XD), and it's not just because of meeting Jonas Brothers. (well, mostly..)

The summer started off already interesting with my very first summer job, which I had a blast at. It really gave me insight of how it was having children. An imagened crush, being friends with 6 year olds and acting like a 6 year old- that tells most of the experience. XD
Then during my second week at work I had to take one day off to go to the JONAS BROTHERS CONCERT! (well Avril Lavignes but, what the hey XD) My very first time seeing the boys in real life, man it's still unreal to me. (really without my pictures I'd think I dreamt it all! XD) Waiting in line with Trs, Manda and Jenn was awesome, that was almsot the whole experience...and of course meeting Greg Garbo!! XD (Do you think he "closed" his blog for general visitors because of me?)
It was after this concert I got sick, Jonas-sick. Everything I did, I thought, I sang, I breath was Jonas Brothers! XD I didn't care for anything just as long I had my JB dose. And it would become so much worse 2 days later, when I went to Stockholm to my second Jonas Brothers concert.
I went to the meet n' greet (CD signing) and really I was the only person there that didn't freak out. It was strangely calming seeing those "fans" freaking out over some boys they obviously didn't know. (stuck up much? XD) When I opened my mouth to say the very first word to Kevin Jonas that was when my brain shut down and left me with all the memory gaps. (Darn brain!) I guess I just couldn't take it, it was too good to be true. They are great boys and I always say that they deserve every fan they got (I say that? Well, I'll start saying it...! XD)
The Stockholm concert was the most wonderful and the most insane experience ever. The Swedish fans were so enthusiastic and energetic that it didn't just lift the boys up but it made yourself feel so good, because you know the boys really enjoyed the concert. I walked on clouds for weeks after that. I was convinced that this was the meaning of life, being this happy. The boys seemed like my everything.

I finished my summer job a couple of weeks after that, having fallen in love with most of the kids and promised to come back soon. The same day as I ended my summer job my cousins from France came. It was nice seeing them again, we did some fun stuff but I don't why I couldn't enjoy it more. Maybe I couldn't keep doing all my JB things or I just felt so sufficated.
In the beginning of August Meks and I went to London, as you remember very well. It was the first time I went on a holiday by myself (without family) without being a language travel. I felt really grown-up and free, it was awesome.

Then of course the CD (!!&!/&¤#@¤ !!%&/¤%&¤ anger) would be a perfect ending on a perfect summer but it just made me angry, depressed and sad.

Other things really made my summer was: haning out with Trs and Manda, seeing KP, making music videos, seeing the very anticipated Camp Rock, figuring out about what I want to do in the future and listening to the Beatles (they rule!).


new wall versus old wall

Something mobbed or something very mobbed

Here you go my very first music video/cover. It's Jonas Brothers (very old) song "Eternity". It is very dorky and laughingly but still I hope you like it and doesn't laugh so much that you choke. XD

And if you don't mind check out the youtube "verision" and giv eme some views. :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIT2rmNmMM8 There you can also check out my music video of "Please Be Mine".

ENJOY O.O (dorkface)

Things less aggravating

I'm SOOOOOO MAD! The CD came out yesterday, "A little bit longer" (Jonas Brothers), and I haven't gotten it yet. I booked/bought it 3 months ago and have waited much more.
It was kinda OK waiting before, when everyone waited equally but now! I can't help getting so mad, that everyone has it, listening to it the 100th time and talking about it when I got nothing. (ELIN, shut up! XD)
But soon..SOON. The shipping will take at least 2-3 days, so if I don't get it this week someone's head is on the chopper! XD

-d e e p b r e a t h -


So let's talk about things less aggravating......... (thinking) well, let's go from aggravating to depressing.
The summer is slowly coming to an end and I'm scared that I don't have time to do all the things I planned to do, but I have to admit I've done loads of things this summer. :D

Let's take a look at the list:
DONE:
-Get a Youtube account
www.youtube.com/thatmandy
-Get present for a friend
-Redo the walls of my room
I'll put a photo up, SOON
-Upload new video(s) to the blog
YES, I made two cover/music videos recently. I've uploaded them on my youtube but I'll upload them here too. (Next entry)

HALF-DONE:
-Read at least 2 books (eventually Twilight, Harry Potter och Dödsrelikerna?)
I've finished the Agatha Christie book, started with "Världens största konspirationer"=World's biggest conspiracies, not done yet.
-Learn new songs on the guitar (All-american rejects, Hey There Delilah the whole song, Camp rock songs?)
I don't remember which song I didn't know before the summer. I know Hey there Delilah, Eternity and Kung Fu grip now. Should I've learnt more?
-Learn the "Hey the Delilah" lyrics properly
I did for know them for a while, then came the hgue JB phase and yesterday playing it I mixed up the senteces. DARN IT!
-Get a proper tan (t-shirt tan, so embarrassing..)
I tried, tried hard. It's not as disgusting anymore but still
-Look through all the school application brochures/booklets and decide my future
I've looked through them all, I've done lots of thinking. I just need to look up stuff on the net. So this one is 3/4 done. XD
WHATEVER XD:
-Make tutorial videos and co-op with Therese!
Tutorial? What was I thinking? Maybe in the future. Höhö, I don't think Therese ever wanted to make co-op vids with me XD
-Print out photos
Hhhmmm, something I really want to do before school...time is the question.
-Blog at least every other day
How was that again? You tell me XD
-Ride bike around whole Malmö
I wanted to, don't have time anymore. Future plans!

It maybe doesn't look like I've done much but I have and this summer was no doubt the best summer of my life yet! I'll give you a review of it later. Enjoy my videos for now. XD


Me going crazy at Zavvi (ex Virgin)

A Tourist in London

Wednesday, the last whole day in London. Finally it would be a rainfree day (they said..)
We hit the tube (subway XD) a bit after 8. We bought this one day travel card which was even cheaper than only 2 rides on the tube.

Our first destination was Westminster- Big Ben/House of Parliament. Then London eye on the other side. (I just couldn't stop thinking that Jonas Brothers had been in one of those capsules XD) We took pictures, met some weird people and made a (disastrous) vlog. We took the tube, after asking some policemen the way there XD, to London bridge. The original idea was to look at the Tower Bridge but there had been some misunderstandings so we just took some long distance photos and moved on to the next place, the Shakespeare Globe theatre.
We walked from there, it was a bit tricky and we made some really lucky guesses (we did have a map....XD) before finally arriving at the globe theatre. I've seen the theatre several times before (from Thames ferries) but I've never been there. I couldn't actually go in though :(, but we had tons of things to see anyway.
We kept walking, we walked across the Millenium Bridge. Huhu, I saw this suit-man standning at the bridge just starring down the bridge with a somewhat sad-looking face, he had even taken off his coat. I thought for real that we was going to jump, he didn't though...XD On the other side of the bridge was St. Paul's cathedral (which we didn't know was there) so sort of improvised we went there to look and then just took the tube from St Paul's station.

We arrived soon at Liverpool street with the tube. We'd looked up markets in London before going and decided to go to 2 around the Liverpool street area. The Petticoat Lane market said to be open at 10 o'clock, it was 10.30 when we arrived there still there were only a few stands (stånd) that were open, the others were still unpacking their stuff. So instead we went to the other market nearby, to our great disappointment we found out that this market were not open on Wednesdays. (We switched sightseeing day remember?) We kept wander around until we found a Tesco store, where we went in and bought lunch and ate it at the busstop outside. XD We then went back to the first market, which now looked more like a real market. It was mroe fo a clothes-shoes-bags market, I'd hope for a vintage jewellry market but anyway i found a relly cool T-shirt. :D

We went to the nearest tube station to go to St. James Park, to visit her royal highness's house- Buckingham Palace. It was about this time the sun came out and it became warmer which was nice. The place (picture 2) was swarming with tourists as always. We sat by the fountains and enjoyed the sun for a while. After a quick rest we headed back to the tube station to catch another tube to South Kensington, to the Science Museum.
We didn't know about the direct udnerground passage to the museums so we wandered around on ground, mixing up the streets and all that fun stuff. XD eventually we found the place and once again the place was swarming! We watched some stuff, it wasn't like the Science museums I've been to this was like a real museum. XD We did however find an interessting section with the theme the Future. The whole room felt very futuristic, with minimalsim and all the white. There were 3 huge round tables, these were sort of a game with a projector on the cieling above the tables, which made the tables look like a big computer screen. Along the edges of the tables there were one button one revolving disk, there were about 10 of these "seats" on each table. We soon found at that it was a game about different theories in the future, such as Space holidays, men having babies and talking toilets. First they showed a short presentation of the theory then there was a game (catching babies and so on XD). It ended with a poll; "Would like to go on a space holiday?" and so on, then you could see the results of the other people voting that day. It was actually really fun. After an hour or so we headed back to the tube station.

The next stop was Covent garden. We went to the Jubliee Market, looked and bought stuff. XD Then we walked back to the hotel, What a day!
We went to eat dinner for a change XD, to went to China town and ate a buffet. YUM. Then it was abck to the hotel to pack and sleep for very (VERY) early day in the morning.

Yup that was basically the whole story. XD I also got 6 mosquito bites the last day so my leg have been swallen and ichy ever since coming home.....

See you later alligator!

Under a rainy cloud in London[edited]

Long time no see! I'm back with a wonderful accent and all. No jk. Really London have been crazy and absolutely wonderful.
I actually sat on the bus and wrote down a sorta "template" for my entries about London. It was bored and there were a few bumps here and there, and really I have to really focus to read what I've written. XD So I'm just gonna start from scratch. XD


It was me and a friend that decided we'd go to London this summer. I found this bus company (travelled wth them before) adn they had a 6-day trip to London and I thought it was relly nice. (You know it's more environment friendly XD)
Off we go, exited and happy. The first day, Saturday, started early, 7 o'clock the departure was 8.10. There were alot of old people on the bus of course, but there were some families and youngsters (XD like ourselves).
The trip to our frist stop in Germany was alright, we'd eaten at home and had some food with us, so that was fine. We arrived around 9 o'clock and it was time for dinner. The hotel was really off, middle of nowhere but it was really nice. We ate and then went to bed, basically, I mean there's no use in watching German TV everything is dubbed and you there's nothing you understand. XD


The next day involved more bus (really?XD) and going through the Eurotunnel. When we came over to the British island we stopped at Ashford to eat lunch. The diner was in this American western style, it was really cool. They had these american car licences throughout the whole diner, though that was cool. (picture 2, GO NEW JERSEY ;)) We had fish and chips and I have to admit that, I never felt this full again on the rest of the trip.
we then continued and around 4 o'clock we were driving down the streets of London. :D We hoped we'd arrive early to get in some shopping before they closed and we did! I went into HMV for like 10 minutes then came out £40 pounds poorer just like that. XD I realized later that if I continued this way I'd run out of money (which I eventually did).
We also went to Leicester Square to catch a movie, what we didn't now that it costs a fortune to watch a movie here but we decided to watch anyway. I really wanted to see a movie on Odeon on Leicester Square, how cool wouldit be to watch where all London preimeres are? XD We wanted to see "The Forbidden Kingdom" but unfortunately it only showed on a smaller screen at some kind of annex to the Odeon. I've never been tot he cinemas in England and thoguht it was really cool, the movie sucked but the experience was cool. XD

The following day, Monday, we planned to shop. After breakfast (crunchy nut YUM! XD) we started the very long day on Oxford street. I've never been the part of Oxfordstreet beyond the crossroad at Regent Street, so that was interesting for me. We went to Primark, which was insane XD and I finally foudn my favourite clothingstore in England, New Look. WIE! Here (picture 3) we are at Debenhams on Oxfordstreet where I found the bag of my dreams but didn't buy.....
The day went on with more rain and some shopping. After a quick rest in the Hotel we decided to walk down to Picadilly circus (picture 1), it had just started to get dark so it was really beautiful. My feet hurt so bad in the end of the day!
We watched the news (BBC news was like the only channel we had in our hotelroom) and they said it'd be rain on Tuesday, which was our planned day to go sightseeing. We thought it wouldn't be as fun if it rained that day so we switched the last day for sightseeing instead of shopping.

So Tuesday we had another day of shopping by this time a had a really bad ache in my legs and feet, but I continued on bravely. We went first to Primark to turn back some clothes that didn't fit (the line to the fitting room the previous day was insane! So I just guessed and bought XD). We came around opening time so there were not so many people and it felt so peaceful and calm, comparing to the caotic previous day. XD I could relax and really look for clothes, I ended up buying a pair of shoes and a top.
We went down some streets that supposed to be shopping streets but got ripped off and just went back, like New Bond Street and Baker street. XD So we decided to go to Hyde Park and see the Peter Pan statue.

The cross to the left is the Peter Pan statue and the other cross is our Hotel. The red line is supposed to be the way we walked but in reality we walked much more because we took some detours XD We calculated it and it's about 17 kilometres...... in the rain XD But it was kinda worth it, Peter Pan is one of my favourite stories ever. :D
We walked back to Oxfordstreet and crashed down at the very first place we saw had food. XD It was KFC, we were all hungry so we acted all silly. After a rest in the hotel we walked down to Trafalgar Square.
After that we took a detour back to the hotel and somehow ended up in Covent Garden. (picture 6) The market was closed by now so we decided if we had time tomorrow we'd come here again. The killing-our-legs-and-feet-day was nto over yet NO, we walked up Tottenham courtroad to see of there was some interesting shopping places. We got ripped off again, then we went into Tesco and bought soem food.[edited]
We came eventually home and was dead tired, NO WONDER we'd walked several miles just in one day. (I actually didn't realized that myself, until reviewing it now)

I'm just gonna stop here and post the last day (the sightseeing day) in London on the next entry. See Ya :D

The nicest kid back in town XD

London Calling

LONDON IS CALLING (!) my name. If you haven't read or been living under a rock for the few past weeks (KIDDING!) I am going to London tomorrow with a friend on a 6 days shopping hysteria. It is going to A W E S O M E. Probably I won't be able to get access to a cpmuter or something like that, so see yah 8th Aug. ;)

I'm really sorry to tell you this, but I've unfortunately lost my sunglasses! :'( I liked them so much! So in London I'll go a hunt for a new pair, I'd love have a pair turquoise. (The ones Kevin has ;))

Rest In Peace
