... this was the BESTEST birthday outing EVAR!! My feet are now in an eternal phase of pain but the walking was worth all of it!!! My cousins and I went to the city and ate the most yummiest cream puffs ever from Puffy, then we had some tea from Easyway (with pearls of course), we then bought us some Pocky, Puka, Mochi, Waffles, GIANT Pocky and some Jap lemonade from Thai Kee. Walking for quite a while, we stopped by to Market City and to other cute little shops like Morning Glory where I bought my Domo phone cover and to Emporio (with four floors of SHOES) for my ate's formal. We then walked to Yoshinoya and had some delicious Japanese foods and were resting for a while because we were so full we were all going to just burst! We ususally didn't gone through this other side of Hyde Park because there was usually nothing to see there, but we saw tents and a congregation of people, so we decided to go check it out. On the way there there were heaps of Police cars going to the front of this hotel and we were just walking past, but then my cousin was all like "Hey guys! I see a body!" And so there we saw from afar a guy's body, unmoving on the road, while police were trying to hide the view with their cars, but since we were elivated we could clearly see it.... even some of the blood. We also passed by this guy who actually SAW how the guy died and was all stressed like "I saw him jump from the top of the building!!" And his gilfriend was trying to comfort him. So we were all kinda shocked and surprised and were saying "Lucky we rested at Yoshinoya for a while, otherwise we would've seen him jump!" Because the police hadn't even arrived yet and there was no media on the scene, they hadn't even covered it up yet! But then we walked and discussed a little more down the path and just down the road we saw the most beautiful wedding ever!!! It was at the St Mary's church which has like a 5 year waiting list and the bride's dress was so white and beautiful and large and flowing that we could see it from all the way from Hyde park! Finally arriving at the tents, we found out that it was a fundraising event for the AIDs Trust fund, so people were buying wine, food and all sorts of stuff. And so this got me thinking: everything can happen all at the same time. These happy, festive people were oblivious to the dead man just down the street! It just blew my mind at that revalation! I just couldn't get over it!!! I got so depressed over the death and all the happy things being so close to the scene..... But then afterwards while we were walking to the Lindt store, we saw two more beautiful weddings happening and it distracted us for a while to some extent. At the Lindt store, the stuff they had was SUPER rich with chocolate!!! Both my cousins ordered ice mochas, while I ordered a nice hot chocolate. We ordered a small choclate cake to share and we reeeaaalllyyy struggled to finish the puny little thing because of its rich chocolatieness! And because I enjoyed my hot chocolate so much, I bought a tin of it for myself for home.... hehehehe..... and so it was the second time we were all utterly full from eating too much food. I thought my pancreas was gonna die and my veins were going to cause me premature death because of all the rich chocolate. Such a gastronomical day.... we passed by this cute cupcake store on the way to Central station and bought the cutest little cuppycakies!! >.< We bought some for my cousin Aianne who couldn't come because of stuff..... and that also went alongside a copy of the Hanazakari no Kimi Tachi e special subbed dvd, a pack of giant Pocky and some Jap lemonade. When we drove back home and gave the gifts to her she was so happy. My aunt, grandparents, little brother and little cousins then went to see the Fisher's Ghost Festival fireworks at 9pm, but my legs and feet were too dead tired and sore to go, so my cousins and I stayed back. When my two older cousins left to go home, Aianne immediately started watching the dvd!! She also started drinking the Jap lemonade, but is still having strouble closing it.... the little marble just won't close it!! DX So here I am, at home after the most eventful birthday outing ever.....
