A short one before the trip...
Kita s’lalu berpendapat, kita ini yang terhebat
Kesombongan di masa muda yang indah
Aku raja kaupun raja
Aku hitam kaupun hitam
Arti teman lebih dari sekedar materi

i can hardly open my eyes...i've been packing since 11 p.m., and its now nearly 2 a.m...well, in between i took a makan break, and a long phone call break (courtesy of the cousin, Tina Yoohoo *grins* ) ... and i'm off to Spain in a few hours..will be taking the coach to Stansted, and our flight will leave a about 11 a.m....i am soo unprepared for this trip, i've not looked up for places to go and stuff..i'm basically a small, albeit cute, hehe, puppy following Kak Moonie's butt there...the plan is to go to vitoria for 2 days and attend the wedding..then it'll be to Madrid for 3 days...we're meeting a certain Jean Simpson, who's also a friend of the bride, cuz she will be travelling to Vitoria from Valladolid (where we'll land) by car, and we'll be sharing the ride with her..apparently, there are also a few other friends of the bride coming in from Netherlands..so it should be a merry ride...
so, here i am, googling as much as i could about these 3 places..would love to go to andalucia, but itupun kalau the budget and time permits us..as a matter of fact, we do not have any places to stay in Madrid, as we're planning to men"gamble"our way and just walk into any hotels..according to this big-eyed dude, there's some kinda grand wedding going on, so we really hope that there'll still be room in Madrid for us two tiny, curly-haired travellers..hehhehe...
alhamdulillah, i went through my exam and submitted my assignments..but that's not without its drama..picture me running through a maze of corridors, ending up in dead ends, climbing more stairs, all for the one fitness studio which was the exam hall..pheww..penat makcik..in the end, i had to consult someone at the assessment office, and they got me an escort to show me the way..haha! well, i arrived about 10 minutes late *gulps*..and the only seats left are the ones under the skylight! and it was such a panas day!! my classmates who had on their tank tops, halter tops, short skirts, and flip flops tak nak laa pulak duduk kat situ..and me, with my long sleeved shirt (walaupun berlubang-lubang) had to sweat it out underneath the sun! not to mention the long traffic jam that follows the exam, coupled with the stifling bus ride, and the smell of many sweaty Londoners..yucks!! at one point, i just felt like screaming! it was soo uncomfortable...
so, today i went about my business, going to school to sort some stuff out, then later to Angel to exchange my pounds to euros, and hung round waiting for Athirah who wanted to hang round with us...so, i amused myself by walking through the market, trying out prom dresses at Monsoon, spraying perfume at Sephora, checking out the books at Borders..wanted to buy some rubber bands, cuz someone had the idea of playing getah at Hyde PArk...won't that be a hoot?? never mind that i've never touched or lompat-ed the getah after my knee injury..never mind that the highest i could jump was the armpit level (and that was MY armpit too! *short* )...should be fun!
got home, cooked dinner of fried meehoon, keropok, cekodok pisang, and tiramisu (Ainor's speciality)..then Kak Moonie came home from her bapak angkat's, and i got to meet Uncle Cedric and wife..really nice people who donated us some home-made tuna buns and chilli sauce..Athirah decided to sleep over, so now i'm surrounded by 3 sleeping girls...
