im back! (:
so happy to be back. there's the internet here, there's friends' here. there's even ur crush to talk to!
hahaha.
however, i miss the weather! and well, i miss being on holiday.
well. if there's ever one thing u must know abt spain, SALT IS FREE THERE.
literally. everything one eat is SO salty.
goshhh. food there, seems ok. sometimes not really pleasant at all.
then there's the gypsies and the pick pockets and all these people out to grab ur money,
it just freaks you out.
yea. and in spain, everybody is like RUDE.
in shops, they dont say excuse me, they just push you.
and no one speaks english in spain.
they dont even know how to say the price of stuff.
quite frustrating. really.
in spain, the red light (man) means, CARS, do go on moving.
the green man means, YES. CARS, do go on moving.
popular there, isnt a red bookshop, its some technology thing or a bank. no clue.
and metro, well it isnt fancyful and clean like the metros, in singapore.
metros here, are like shopping centres (:
and im sure you know what metros' are there.
oh and the weather there, PERFECT. cos its so cold!
-3 to like 13 or smth.
haha. the cathedrals were gorgeous and beautiful,
but you kinda get bored when you've seen majestic ones in the other states already.
yea. some places were really awesome, and they had captivating historical stories behind each limestone rock.
like the marraige of isabelle and- i cant remember.
oh and i LOVED the visits to places ive never been to in my life!
i visited a synagogue! it was the coolest thing for me ever!
oh wells,
its alright for everyone to visit spain , experience life there yourself.
its a totally different culture there, and one would learn ALOT. to appreciate stuff in Spore.
appreciate the simplest fact that there's no beggars in spore.
appreciate the fact that you can safely put your bag next to you in macs and it wont get stolen away.
appreciate so many other things that just comes with life in spore. how our society can be really really pleasant at times, and how life in spore is so , unique.
i sound like some governtment advertiser, but its really great to live here. (:
there wasnt much shopping there.
mango was quite dissappointing actually.
the stuff was expensive and WINTERY.
i bought an ultra SWEET sweater.
but my bro said it was too thick for spore.
blew my cash for nuttin.
and zara was like giodano there. so many frickin outlets.
but it aint cheap at all lar. it was maybe only a few dollars lesser than sg's stuff.
so dissappointing.
but there's this spanish shop called bershka. their stuff. ROCKS? (:
well their stuff is really really cooll.
yuppp.
maybe sooner or later it would appear here in sg?
who knows...
oh, and if you think bk is ex in sg, well wait till u see it there.
one meal is like 5.30 euros. that equates to $10.60.
so freaking expensive.
a meal for 3 can cost up to 20euros. so that means $40!
which could pay for measl at cartel.
sickening it is!
their levis costs like 105 euros, which would be $210 sing.
crazinessssss please.
and their converse, just the plain cream white high cut, it cost 55 euros,
a hundred and ten sing dollars. tell me whats nuts.
just a box of smith kisses, 2.65 euros . $5.30!
miss sixty earns big there. i tell you, you'd be shock at the prices. seriously.
and my mummy fell seriously ill in portugal.
paying for consultation fees, 150 euros.
plus medicine, and the poor old man's taxi fare, 47 euros.
in total, $394!
FRICKIN CHEAP.
dont worry, all can be claimed back in insurance.
but seriously, please pray for my momma k?
she's got bronchitis. the doctor so louya. cant tell her that.
but honestly, my trip there had been a fruitful one.
i witnessed a funeral ceremony, a wedding and a mass in the most awesome cathedral. what more could a girl ask for?
yea. and back in spore, ive been accpeted in SERVE.
(:
im really happy about it.
me and dan are going together. hahah.
real cool stuff. school starts on jan 4th.
cant wait cant wait cant wait!
ka's starts on 3rd jan.
new life ahead. new rules. new set of everything.
it feels kinda sad somehow, to leave our past behind,
and move on.
but everyone has to somehow.
oh wells. if u wanna see pics, i cant upload them now.
me and my dad took 1000++ pictures.
i think its craziness. hahahahah.
