December 28th

So here I am again, in the glorious city of London. Sorry for not writing a journal before leaving, but I was stuck for time and all that jazz. To make a long (but surprisingly interesting) story short: I got to the airport, no problems. The plane was actually on time for once and we arrived over an hour early... But... and this is what I was dreading... I got detained at Gatwick airport Exciting stuff, I'm sure. The Immigration Officer was excessively annoying, asking questions I'm sure she had no right to ask. But, after giving James' mum a call, the Immigration Officer decided I was not crazy, that I was not a suicide bomber or a terrorist, and that I was not going to try to live in the country as an illegal alien. So yeah. Needless to say.. we arrived at Gatwick at 10:00 AM, and I finally got out past the baggage claim at 12:30ish. Yay. Oh! On top of all that... because I was so late getting to luggage carousel, my bag was left at the side of it with 3 other bags with a guy guarding it. I went to take my bag and he said it had to be sniffed by the dogs. Lovely. But it was only looking for meat so it didn't find my stash of weed... just kidding . But yeah. Just so you guys know, I'm going to be updating this journal over my stay, instead of just writing a new one each time.. so you might see it appear in your message centres again and again. Just know I'm not re-posting it, I'm actually updating it

December 30th

It's been harder to get over the jet lag.. moreso than last time. I've been regularly staying up until 5 then sleeping until 12. Not so good. But James is doing the same thing, so it's okay, . Our plans today include going to see a movie at the cinema, and his mum is going to go out and get me an oyster card, which is really nice of her . And apparently, by looking down at my arm.. i've been bitten by some kind of bug . And yes... It is raining. But it's nice. I hope we have a thunderstorm soon That'd be amazing!

January 3rd

So, been awhile since I last updated you all. James is out right now getting me some sandwiches () and I'm pretty much bored sitting here waiting. It's 10 past 12, and I don't know what our plans are for today. Yesterday, we talked about going to a movie and getting some pizza hut.. so we might do that later.

But about the fireworks.... they were amazing. We decided to go to Westminster Bridge and catch the display around the London eye, with approximately 150, 000 other people. Yeah, it was crowded, but not too bad. We got there at 10 to 11 so we had to stand around for an hour before they started. It was such a great atmosphere, and the fireworks were so pretty... especially when this gold dust-like sparkly fireworks filled the air, and the london eye turned this beautiful shade of purple... wow.

Here's some pictures I pulled off the web:

Wish I took some now . What did all you guys do?

January 17th

Long time no see, eh? Well, I haven't really been busy... just not interested in dA. James and I have been lounging around a lot and cuddling... you know, the usual, lol. We're actually going away on January 23rd for a few days to Paris, staying in a beautiful 3 star hotel which is only a 3 minute walk to the Eiffel Tower. How good can life be? We're taking the Eurostar to Paris and it will only take about 2 and a half hours, so hopefully we can get comfortable. I'm taking my camera with me, and I might submit some pictures to my scraps later when I get home. To those of you who I promised postcards to (only 3 people, so don't feel bad if you're not one..) Would you rather Paris postcards or London ones? Send me your answer in a note and I'll try to oblige according. This is a great time to brush up on my french .

I'm sorry if I don't reply to your comments right away, I'm not really doing them right now, but I will when I get home. I'm missing my family <3. Hope everyone is well :]

Bye for now
