It's been another three day gap so I shall do my best to fill it, but before that, the bigger issue is the outcome of the referendum which was close, but ended in an OUT majority, and subsequently a spiral into political unrest and confusion. I won't delve too deep into this because I never cared much for it before and the less I think of it, [potentially] the better. I shall return to more engaging matters.
Friday was my day out in Central London with Jackson. The weather was surprisingly warm and breezy - almost summer-like - but my body had other plans and decided to lump me with period pains which detracted slightly from the wonder of London's complex heart in the sunlight. We stopped off in the Japan Centre in Soho for classic Japanese snacks (sushi, mochi, fizzy fruity drinks) and ended up in St James' Park by The Mall playing Smash Bros on his DS before another wander. By 6pm, we decided it was time to find some proper food so we went to a place in Soho called Shoryu, serving ramen (which was a first for me). That, however, was pretty much the end of our day, having missed the Pride parade which supposedly had passed through Central London that day.
Yesterday I finally got to hang out with my long time best friend Eloise in the larger nearby town of Bromley. Have some lunch, shop, and catch up, whilst avoiding the occasional downpour courtesy of our British summer weather. I ended up buying myself a fringed burgundy suede handbag in a sale in Topshop due to the fact that I didn't have a medium sized bag myself. We ended our day watching a squirrel eat popcorn while hanging upside down from a tree! I managed to get home just in time to avoid a hail/thunderstorm (which Eloise, unfortunately, did not), but jeez was the thunder ever loud! Such a feeling to be out under that sky too!
Today, however, has been a bit of a bore, being that I was taken to Bluewater (again) by my dad out of his desire to buy a professional coffee machine from John Lewis. Granted I scored a sweet dress belt and some surprisingly good coffee (courtesy of Krispy Kreme), but it hardly felt worth the effort.
Back home it was Sunday as usual, doing laundry, making dinner, etc. etc.
And it's another week over again....
Tomorrow, I start ordering my second year books and maybe get to watch another film *fingers crossed*
