Gf crashes in my room cos dun wan her to drive.
Next day wakes up at 10am, 11am, 1230 am n finally 1pm.
cos i was hungry
Got showered n changed while gf snoozes more.
finally wakes her up at 2pm cos i think of how many things i wanted to do (check out price of non contract iphone; too expensive, buy sothys post wax cream, visit the eiffel tower n take pics)
Gf drove to her home n bought pastries for breakfast
yeah breakfast at 3pm.
had tea in her kitchen while waiting for her to shower n change.
4pm left her house but went to grocery shop cos she felt compelled to show me wat she eats
Stopped by at florist cos she likes to buy flowers.
is 5pm.
My only day in Paris is gone.
N pastries r too sweet for my savoury tongue as a breakfast.
I crave curry pok.
n i getting gastric cos no hot meal n all tt waiting around.
Parked at champs elysee.
Gf went w me to SFR (phone provider in France)
iphone without contract is 590 euros for 3Gs 16gb. need to crack somemore.
Checked with bf. too ex. hopingto find a deal at 400euros.
went to another phone provider.
They dun do iphones without contract.
stopped looking.
Am disappointed.
Walked n walked all the way to St honore to Sothys to buy post waxing cream.
Cost 27.90 euro here but approx 42 euros when bought back in Sg.
Only thing on my checklist done as i purchased 2 tubes.
Walked n walked as waiting for dinner time to meet Gf's other visiting frenz from amsterdam.
Hoping to catch a glimpse of eiffel tower but scared to ask.
Stopped at cafe n had coke n fries cos i so hungry for HOT food.
Gf says is not French to snack.
I dun care. m not French.
tt's why im fat. OK?
Why must i conform jus cos im there!??!?!
Had lotsa pork for dinner.
food was fantastic.
though the additional company of a baby-talking high flying Shell exec expatriated from Sg to Amsterdam who thinks tt stewardess get paid alot for doing nothing n her English bf who thinks tt we sit around so much onboard n get DVT pisses me off.
Gf ordered total 2 bottles of wine
i look at ticking clock.
i wanna come back n sleep
i dun wanna talk anymore.
i dun have anymore euros left for cab ride back. or to pay for dinner if need to split. i had to card it, defnitely.
Bill came. 208 euros was the damage.
Baby talking high flying Shell expat from sg n I split the bill, credit card.
Was hoping Gf will pay me back half since i already compensated for her dinner treat by getting ALL the drinks the night b4.
Wrong.
104 euros is 210 sg dollars.
dinner with pple who annoyed me.
Heart pain.
Except for the fantabulous French food experience i seriously wished i had my best friends n boyfriend with me instead.
210 sg dollar spent on dinner would not seem like such a waste then.
12am back in room.
Spied boyfriend whom i miss so much on Skype.
I love you dear bb.
have to wake 7 hrs later to fly back to SG
Full load.
Day flight.
Sure gonna die.
But i cant wait to come home .
Screw seeing the Eiffel Tower n frenchy food n frenchy pple.
Im sick of atas pretentious fly life.
I wanna stay at home n be grounded forever.
Oh n my leave for Zoukout was denied.
A-fucking-gain.
So i cannot attend wedding.
N maybe not Zoukout.
Wat the FucK.
P/S. after shower when back in room realised tt i left my Sothys cream worth 54 euros for 2 tubes at the restaurant.
So officially this trip i come home empty handed. with a lighter than started out with cargo bag.
So so stupid.
*bang head*
