The Happy Kiwi

Hello~ :D
Yesterday, Steph and I went to go see Katie in London and we had an amazing time, and the weather was terrible, but when isn't it?

We were meant to meet at the station at ten, and knowing that I'm always late, I got up at seven and got there for 9:45 ;D However.. Theresa, who was originally meant to be coming with us, bailed out - basically she didn't want to get up that early - and Steph was running late - a.k.a "holy shite, I forgot it was today"... So while waiting in the freezing cold for Steph, people kept staring at me for no reason. I'm not really sure why, I think it was because I was stood there in the same place for like 40 minutes or something.. but hey, it was nice to be on time for once :/ Anyway, I kept reading all the signs outside the station and this one made me laugh :)

Would the real penalty not be a sure death sentence? Compared to that, £200 isn't that much ;D

Anyway, when Steph finally came, we got on the train and made our way in to London~ We were trying to get to Waterloo, but we went somecrazy way on the underground and ended up walking like 10 miles in all these little underground places and walking up like 100 flights of stairs :/ ..not cool. I'd also been wearing my big navy wool jacket and couldn't take it off because of the major sweat patches I'd know I'd have...

After all that, we made it to Waterloo and phoned up Katie. She was like 'meet at the entrance with the sainsbury's outside'... :| We went out and looked for this sainsbury's for like 20 minutes... and finally she was like 'just stay still, I'll find you' hahaha, I swear we literally were such retards that day.

Katie's uni <3 ...at night... because I forgot to take a picture...

We went past Katie's uni and back to her room which was in this really cool building with lots of huge windows and cool brick patterns :) We had a look around her shared kitchen (which was a mess) and her room (which was an even bigger mess!). Steph, for some reason started cleaning her room, which, by the end, was amazingly tidy! And I, who wasn't going to lose to Steph on the friendship scale, cleaned up their kitchen and washed all their dishes :)

The original plan was to go out to London and have a look around, but the cleaning and random chats that we'd had took us aages, so we ended up going to the National Gallery for 5 seconds for Steph (who was a bit annoyed we couldn't stay longer) and then I took some pictures outside :)

Then we headed off on a bus to Marble Arch to go do some quick shopping (but the paying line was too big~) and then get a KFC. The best thing was the bus had a friggin' tv... soo cool~ but as you can tell from the picture, nothing good was on :/

I can see the people behind me~

Then in KFC, we met up with Liz, who'd just finished her first day of her new job and ended up going back to Katie's to have fun :) And fun we had <3

Anyway, we all had a great time, met some of Katie's flatmates and then went home afterwards on a better journey than the one we came on, with a little help from Katie that is :) And for now, I shall leave you with this mind scarring picture.. megan look away now~!
