Netherhere!

So I'm currently in Gatwick Airport in London waiting for my flight to Amsterdam in an hour. I've been here for two hours and all I did was sleep. I decided to walk around. The airport here is just like a mall! The clothes are cheap, but it's all in pounds!

My trip to London was 8 hours long. I was served dinner (beef steak and mash potatoes) and breakfast (cake and yogurt). The plane was really cute. There were a blanket, headphones, pillow, socks, toothbrush, and eyeshades on every seat. They also had cute little give aways to little children. :) I sat by the window but didn't see anything since it was dark. I got to watch The Hangover, and it is hilarious just like what everyone's been telling me. I also threw away my retainer (accidentally, of course!) after I ate my breakfast. Ugh. And I just got that fixed.

Um, everyone around me has a British accent. It's totally cool and different. Although people speak English, I still have to listen hard to understand everyone. Everyone seems so nice so far. :)

What I'm seeing right now....tons of cute people and I haven't seen anyone who is overweight yet. So different from the US. The fashion is also very cute, a bit like the US. I went to this shoe store and was tempted to buy at least three pairs of shoes. But I said no, since I'm already short with money.

Hmm...I'm ready to be out of the airport already. My gate opens in ten minutes and I'll be heading to The Netherlands! How exciting! I haven't eaten but I'm not hungry.

I don't know what else to write about. I think I vented out everything....I'm liking everything so far. I don't know when I'm going to have internet in my apartment but I'm hoping ASAP like tomorrow so I can call everyone and anyone I know. Lol.

Damn verizon phone won't work. Ugh.

I looked at my bank account, and it seems that I'm being charged twice on everything...like using internet right now and the phone. It's costing a pretty penny right now. Hopefully they take off one of the charges.

  1. So it sounds like everything is going well so far (other than the expense thing). I'm actually really jealous of you right now. I'm bored with the US, i want to go over seas!

    you're a tough girl toni rose. I have a lot of respect for you. I know you're gonna do great things in the Netherlands. And show them how we girls do it USA style. ;-)

    miss you girl! hang in there!!
