✧ Under A Paper Moon ✧: August 2014

Hello again!

Today's entry will be the second part of my London-diary or whatever you want to call it.
Well...actually I'll basically write about my gets, some food and show you some of the selfies I took!

Starting off with 2 delicious pieces I got from different shops in China Town! I already told you that I really liked those bakeries there and these babies are the main reasons why.

Both of them are sweet coconut buns, the second one was filled with whipped cream. The best thing ever in my opinion!

The other day I had lunch in Camden Town. There are those tiny diners where you could get cheap takeaway meals and I ended up getting something chinese. Able to mix and match everything there, I got some crispy chicken, teriyaki chicken and also sweet & sour stuff with egg fried rice, I felt like vomiting afterwards even though it was incredibly delicious. I wish we had places like this where I'm from.

Got those tops from Camden as well. I'm trying to feel more comfortable in sleeveless tops so I bought these two since they're really pretty.

The left one is from a store called Punky Fish, the right one was 3 pounds at camden market :D

After arriving in Camden Town for the first time, I walked past a shoe store after being there for only 20 minutes or something. The price of those babes was lowered from 65 pounds down to only 20 so my mom literally forced me to try them on and...well...I immediately fell in love and couldn't get up.

Ok guys, here's a story. On my second day in Bromley, I went to this massive shopping center. I walked in, went to H&M, walked past the Apple store, looked on the other side and BAM, a giant, glowing red Disney sign hit my eyes. So I decided to have a quick look at it.

5 year old me would've bought nearly every plushie in there. It was so beautiful.

Visiting a Disney Store almost feels like stepping into a different world. I felt happy for all those little kids who were tiny enough to fit into Queen Elsa's dress.

But well.

I'm a grown ass 17 year old girl, so everything I bought there was this mug (which was already expensive enough for me) and even though it's not that impressive, I love it a lot since I've always been obsessed with The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Basically me at Primark. Buying nothing but tights.

Some Chinatown gets! I bought nothing at those Asian cosmetics stores since they were quite overpriced and most of the stuff is quite a lot cheaper online.

The Pocky are already gone as well, the other 2 things are/were presents.

Ok I really look horrible with these glasses on but I kinda liked them a lot AND they were cheap so..

Yeah, guess what, they're also from Camden Market.

Here's me grocery shopping. Only a part of what I actually bought, sadly, since I've already eaten most of it.

I feel like Cadbury is like Milka for the British people. Oh, Maltesers are my current addiction and I won't give up on them.

Small but cute henna tattoo. ♥

And with that, I'll leave for today.

I have about 83848 selfies left but I'm not gonna post them here due to the fact that I pull horrifying faces on most of them.

So, mata ne and see you soon for the last part!

Hey guys!

I'm so sorry. I don't know what happened. Blogging is becoming more and more unimportant to me and I can't help but slowly lose the interest in it. But I'm not going to give up on this blog. It's like a box of memories for me.
I haven't even posted the promised photo's of the shooting I did with my friends and I decided not to upload them since I'm not really satisfied with the way they turned out.
Somehow I didn't realise how awful I looked this day...haha. But well...if you want to see them, you can check Jenny's or Julice's entries out!

Weeell, as said in the title, the fabulous potato a.k.a. me was in London.
My summer vacation started about 2 weeks ago and on the 1st August I went to Cologne with my family and we took a bus to my favourite City in the world. And it was totally worth the 12h bus which contained crying little children, a couple making out on the seats in front of me and a good looking Asian guy. *huehue*

This first post will be about sightseeing stuff I did.
In the second one I'm going to post about shopping findings, selfies and most important, FOOD!
There will also be a third one, but I'll keep this one a secret for now. Be prepared to laugh!

Regarding the fact that I took a total of 231 photos, this entry is going to be quite picture heavy. Enjoy!

Our journey started in Cologne. We took the bus because..well, it was cheaper than booking a flight. And it wasn't even that bad! I imagined it to be much worse.
So, we drove from Hameln to Cologne, to Brussels, Gent, took a ferry to Dover and then finally, London!

Here's a map of the route for everyone who's as bad at geography as I am:

Beautiful view from the ferry ♥

After our arrival early in the morning on Saturday we took the train to Bromley and relaxed in our flat for a while and later walked around Westminster where I took some photos!

On Sunday we just did some grocery shopping and visited the city of Bromley, including a wonderful shopping center with a Disney Store in it. This brought back so many childhood memories. I ended up buying nothing but a mug there.

In the evening I went to Central London again because my favourite YouTubers, Danisnotonfire and AmazingPhil did their weekly Radio Show at BBC Radio 1 and I really wanted to meet them.

Sadly they disappointed me and the other fans that were desperatley waiting in front of the building for them to come out. Some security guy came out and told us that they've already left.

I was really sad. Hopefully I can meet them one day since I really love them.

I then took the bus to the rail station and took some photos at night.

The other day, we headed to Soho because my brother who's quite interested in guitars and stuff wanted to see the famous Denmark Street where all the sellers have their stores. On my way I found a store that had K-Pop photos put up on the window. So awesome!

Soho Square!

Afterwards we went to China Town because it was pretty near! I was so impressed by all the cute stores, especially the Chinese bakeries.

Later we also went to the Picadilly Circus where I visited an Anime/Manga store Dan and Phil showed in one of their videos.

On one day, when my brother and my dad went to the Royal Air Force Museum in Collindale, my mom and I took a first look at Camden Town where I had already bought a pair of shoes and a top after a 1h stay.

Wasting money like a boss! But really, Camden is awesome and should be a part of everyone's life bucket list.

The following 2 pictures are just showing my room in our flat. Lol.

I always wanted to see the Tower Bridge and I was told that it was especially beautiful in the dark, so I went there one evening and tried to take a few photos.
