So I decided I needed a week
off from the stresses of life, just a week where my boyfriend and I could enjoy
ourselves without the stress of working, studying and anything else… Here’s how
the week went…
The original plan was:
Monday: Watch
American Sniper, Into the Woods and eat at Las Iguanas and a walk down the
riverside
Tuesday: Bowling and
Nandos
Wednesday: Go to the
Science and Natural History Museum and go to have Afternoon Tea at Haagen Daaz
and go to M&M world
Thursday: Watch Ex
Machina, go to Nandos and a ride on the cable cars
Friday: Go
sightseeing, Covent Garden, Oxford Street, China Town and check out this cute
little candy place in Covent Garden called Spun Candy, go out for dinner and go
for shisha.
Like I mentioned that was
the plan… to be fair most of it went to plan, but some of it didn’t…
So Monday we ended up
watching the films we wanted to and had a better experience at Las Iguanas then
the last time! It was surprisingly quite nice… American Sniper literally bought
tears to my eyes, it was a really sad film to see that someone who gave up
their life for the American People survived 4 tours then died at home… but then
again I’m a sucker for a sad story.
Tuesday, we decided to stay home
and have a nice relaxing day in watching movies on Netflix and ordering in.
Pizza+ movies + a nice cuddly blanket = heaven! But watching Saw, The Woman In
Black and scary ghost films! Not my thing!!
Wednesday we decided to go
on a Museum crawl and visited quite a few places, we went to the Natural
History Museum, Science Museum and the V&A to see the wedding dress
exhibit. We walked for hours and hours but I got this really yummy rock from
the Natural History Museum! We were then meant to go to Haagen Daaz but we
decided to be fatties and go for Pizza Hut instead! My feet were aching from
all that working that we couldn’t even go out on Thursday!
Friday we decided we’d head into West London, we said before we left - No Shopping! But lets face reality here we both knew that we would end up shopping regardless, so we went shopping, House of Fraser, Debenhams, Selfridges then down to Knightsbridge to visit Harrods! I bought a load of Perfume and Clothes! We then visited the Dodi and Diana Memorial, surprisingly it’s quite a romantic place!
AND I GOT MY FIRST PAIR OF
LOUBITONS! AAAAAH, but sadly the first day I wore them they started to wear
down! And I got some Macaroons! £15 for a box of 8, I could have bought so much
food with that £15… I’m wondering if it was actually worth it or not!
Saturday was my little sister’s
birthday. I made a balloon arch complete with fairy lights. I think I should
seriously become a party planner! I love decorating things and getting into
creative things! After all the cake I have had during the past couple of weeks
I am pretty much SICK of cake, I know I know, everyone
that knows me knows I don’t get sick of much, but too much cake, I would rather
have a kebab to be honest lol! But my aunt cooked us all tandoori and jerk
chicken, suffice to say my nose was running all day!
Sunday… usually Sunday is my
chill out day but today my boyfriend mentioned he wanted to go out so I thought
we’d go somewhere he’s never been but has been dying to go to… DUN DUN DUUUUN
-- The Zoo!
But before the zoo we went
to Wafflemeister! OH MY GOD the best tasting thing ever, it was so nice it was
unbelievable! Strawberries, cream and sprinkles! AMAZING!
The zoo was a lot of fun,
even on a cold Sunday! My boyfriend was like a child in a candy store, he was
so excited that I thought he was going to explode. He was seriously so excited!
There was a monkey exhibit where the monkeys roam free and he was loving it!
And the baby tiger cubs and the goats! We looked at every single exhibit they
had on an empty stomach! We didn’t want to lose any valuable time!
But then sadly 4pm hit and
we had to leave! So I decided he deserved a present, so we went back to Harrods
and I let him loose in Gucci and afterwards we went to have dinner!
