August 14th (Thursday)
after everybody turned in their work for class, we all (Ann, Ruhi, Carolyn, Emily, Margaret and I) headed to London for the IceBar. we had some extra time before going so we went to Oxford st. where they have all the major stores on one street. shopped and browsed a little bit. we passed marks & spencers and saw that they had afternoon tea. we all hadn't had that specific tea and went inside to enjoy ourselves. our tea came with sandwiches and scones. it was a really big meal. right after we headed to IceBar which is a bar made from ice sponsored by Absolut. it cost 15 pounds and that includes a warm cape plus one double shot drink.
we go look for it and we could NOT find it, i was starting to panick because i'm a time freak. but eventually we found it and were on time. we all got these capes that made us all look good, thrown over our clothes. inside it was freezing, duh, but quite small. it wasn't too bad with those fetching capes, we all took our time getting drinks. we had some fun taking pictures and drinking our drinks. man mine was so strong, i can still feel it thinking about it now. bleq. it was fun taking pictures, our drinks were in cups made from ice. we started playing bumper cars with our glasses.
afterwards we met up with the other asian group, i'd call them the more hardcore asian group. of course we would meet in china town. i wanted one last pork bun but they ran out, sad. but i soon got a steamed pork bun, just as good. hung around with them for a little bit and we had to leave. lots of sad goodbyes, aww. the rest of us went to go get some food at a Hong Kong cafe place, the food was pretty good.
our last thing for London was getting autographs for me and ann's wicked program. basically we got the whole main cast, all except Fiyero! i was reallllly mad about it. come on, all except him, ugh! we had a pretty nice ride back on the train back to Brighton. London's been good to us, it was a sad goodbye.
August 15 (Friday)
our last day in Brighton. this day was truly the saddest day of them all. we all made a list of what we wanted to do in Brighton. usually when this happens we would only get 3 or 4 things done. but i was in charge for the day so we got everything done. We first went into the North Lanes for handmade fudge, Sejuice smoothies, and Frozen yogurt at Lick. quite productive i'd say, i also bought some candy and the first harry potter book. Off to the mall, borders, primark and peacock. we all found something each of us liked and bought. besides primark stuff, i bought a really nice wallet and got a student discount woo! at primark i bought a bomber jacket for 11pounds. not too shabby. me and margaret went back to our rooms and put our stuff down while the rest sat around at the beach.
we all met up at Donatello's, me and margaret shared a vegetarian lasagna, wasn't what we were expecting, but it was still really good. too bad we didn't have our first waiter. good stuff. afterward we all headed down to the pier. ate some donuts, gambled a bit, bad idea. found a karaoke place on the pier. we didn't have to pay to do it so we went and sang a bit. i got a little too excited for it and ran on stage, tripped because the step is decieving, and ate it. hahahha i played it off and no one really saw, ahhahahah! after we went back to our flats and packed up.
we met up again later that night to chill a bit. then we all said our goodbyes, super sad. awwww!
