A new perspective on life in LDN + outing at portobello mkt!
the weather today was perfect!! i had an outin wif my new found fren jenny n her frens at portobello mkt!

i was out in my shorts! yay finally e weather is gettin warmer! actually i only saw one girl in e crowd who was wearin socks w/o leggings. ppl were starin at me for my attire, but heck! spring is here n snow white is thrilled!!

busy portobello road on a saturday

we came to this pub wif real weird doors!

we had lunch at e garden.. weet!! but e beer battered cod was ok only..

i came to this stall to buy seals. this frenly old uncle thot i was 18! gosh.. he was shocked to hear tt i was 25, n said if i were 20 yrs older, n he’s 30 yrs younger, he’d ask me out. omg.
then we got onto e topic of mathematics, n he started talkin to me abt vedic maths! omg. haha.. he was so engrossed wif it, i felt bad makin other customers wait to get his attn. we must have chatted for a real long time. by e time i was done, my frens have finished walkin e whole street n had walked back to where we came frm, had a brownie n were waitin for me. haha..
so as i was payin for my seal, uncle john said since he fell in love wif me intellectually, he shall give me a small seal as a gift. we took a pic tog before i left n freak, he was holdin on to me so closely when takin e pic! zzz.. neverthless a very kind old man who’s as usual, a lil long winded.. i enjoy chattin wif local ppl on outings like this tho.

the outing ended rather early at 3plus.. it was a really lovely day to be out man.. even my place looks really beautiful for e first time. i thot of darlin n felt really blissed-out. life is so wonderful!
by then, i had started feelin hungry like i din have lunch at all (freakin PIG!!) so i went to get some fried chicken. passed by the hotel tt darling stayed at durin his surprise visit in march.. he had chosen a hotel that was closest to me so tt it’d be easier for him to see me everyday. oh well haha.

n then i passed by lever street, which was e place where he first held my hand. i was feelin really shy then.. din really expect him to hold my hand actually, but felt really happy n sweeeeet like a young girl. our love is so pure n innocent, it is so special to me. everythin feels like a first time!

life is jus so wonderful now.. even when we’re apart. not tt i love bein away frm dt! it’s jus tt LDR = long dist r/s no longer is a drag to me emotionally, but has somehow become an emotional support.. in such a way that i can truly enjoy outings n life in london while noeing that someone is still “there” with me n for me.
i actually once said tt i was grateful to have found the ex (yes, i’ve always thot he was good enough n i’ve been grateful).. but now i jus feel like im e luckiest luckiest luckiest girl in e world hahaa! bleah darling, dun get jealous!
it’s like everythin has never been so in balance, so right before.
life is perfect, now that i’ve found you..
i love u, my darling dt.
