Back with another 300 photos from Days 4 to 6!!!
I seriously need a more efficient way of taking and sorting through photos though...
I take 2 hours just sorting through them and arranging them among my three sources of photos (My camera, my phone and Yuehuan's camera)
D:
Anyway it's our last day in London today (Day 8 now as I type this), and we're gonna be heading to Amsterdam!!!
Wooooohooooo excited!
Starting to feel a little too unhealthy for my comfort from all the good food I've been having in London, so hopefullyyyy I won't binge so much in the rest of Europe hahahaha.
My sleeping/waking hours have been really wonky by the way.
Some nights I sleep 12am - 5am, some (actually most) I sleep 2am - 7am, some 10pm -10am...
I can't even tell whether I have jetlag or I've sleeping issues hahaha.
As I type this it's now 2am and I don't even feel tired.
/:
I've been getting used to the cold, I think.
Everyone's telling me it's actually really warm these few days, at 17 degrees, but I'm still dying because I'm that weak.
I think I'm the only one in the house who uses the heater hahaha
My skin's been getting really really dry too. D:
Tomorrow I'll have to go and buy my very first bottle of moisturizer if not my face is gonna crack.
I don't even know how to buy facial products omgggg save me.
-----
K after I typed that previous line I realized it was really very late and I needed to get more rest before my last day in London, so I forced myself to go to bed hahahaha.
But in the end I didn't sleep well, and I didn't sleep a wink on our 12 hour journey from London to Amsterdam, and now it's 1am after a whole day around Amsterdam, and I am deadddd tired.
I pretty much haven't slept for 2 days.
D:
But anyway!!
Day 4:
Berries for breakfast! :D
Outfit of the day for day 4!
Red leotard from American Apparel, watermelon skirt from Bangkok, high socks, gloves.
Aaaand I headed to Borough Market again! Hahaha couldn't help it - there was too much food I had to go back to try!
I love the tube by the way. It's so clean and comfortable and HEATED.
But it's really damn expensive la zzz.

Then I took the train down to Portobello Market! Because I heard that it's only fully open on Satrudays!
I honestly wasn't really impressed with Portobello Market...
After awhile all the antiques and craft things looked the same.
And it's not as friendly and lively as Borough Market!
The vendors were so cold :(

Four Seasons Duck!!!!
Everyone had been bugging me to go and saying it's life-changing etc etc so I was really really excited!
But alas...
I didn't like it ):
It was waaaay too fatty!
And if you know me, you'd know I'm not the healthy-eater kind of girl.
I love my meats and fats and creams and cheeses etc etc.
But this was really too much for me ):
It was nice at first, but halfway through I started to feel a little sick D:

SO MUCH LOBSTA.
And yes yes everyone says I should have gotten the lobster instead of the lobster wrap, but the bartender said she prefers this so I trusted her judgement!
K la maybe I'll go try the lobster again when I head back to London for my flight back to Sg!

Hahahaha. He really did feel very strongly about these ribs.

Tiring days, but I was really really happy in London!
I'm currently in Rome, and I've been to Amsterdam, Luxembourg and Brussels before this.
But so far I'm sure London's been my favorite.
So glad I spent so many days there!
And I wasn't even bored!
I got bored of Amsterdam in 2 days lololol but I'll blog about that another time.
Alright, it's 1pm now in Rome, and Erika and I are way too lazy to get our butts moving so we're just gonna bum around for a bit.
The running around the previous week among Am, Lux and Br really killed us.
Running around with 10+kg backpacks is really no joke D:
Alright byeeeee!
