London Gatwick Airport

hey guys.

it's one of those entries where i write a blog using overpriced airport internet because i was bored waiting for the next flight again.

i do way too much travelling alone.

when we were being allowed through the gate to walk to the plane in Cork, the lady checking our boarding passes and passports noticed that i had two carry on luggage with me (one bulky handbag and one cabin size trolley bag); i knew i was supposed to only have one but come on, it's not like the handbag matters! it would easily fit under the seat in front of me! so to my despair, she stopped me and said;

'You can only have one carry on luggage, Ma'm, can you put the handbag into the bag please, and then i will check you in'

i knew this task was impossible, but i carried my bag to the side, slowly began to put some stuff from my handbag into my luggage...wait for the strict security lady to be busy/occupied with fat old women so she can't see me, and snuck my way past her to another security lady while hiding my handbag behind me. ROFL. i love playing lets-see-if-i-can-snuck-in-two-carry-ons at airports. life is hard.

i naturally slept the whole way to London, until right at the very end of the flight. i opened my eyes then, only half-awake, and then i saw it - a white London, all covered in thick snow. it was the prettiest thing ever, and it's the first time i saw a snow-covered place from above. i took pictures as well! i'll show you when i get back, probably maybe.

i have like TWO more hours to waste. blargh. i wish i have an iPhone so i can watch movies while waiting. wait - i have a 20% full iPod nano! i cud've put a movie on it! argh i'm so stupid.

anyways bloggiepoo. i managed to hide my bag (which is slightly oversized for carry-on, by the way) and my handbag from the view of the lady issuing my ticket at the counter just now. one obstacle down! i hope the security at the gate isn't as petty as the crazy woman at Cork Airport.

i'll see you in 2010! will be going to Nice and Monaco and then back on the 1st of January.

i don't have any new year resolution...umm. *shrugs*

oh well.
