The night before we decide to stay up to watch a movie. The movie ended up finishing around 3.00 am and we were all getting slightly hungry. We all went down to the kitchen and tried to look for things to cook. It turned out that I had to cook instant noodles for them with mushrooms and eggs. And my way of cooking instant noodles when i get lazy is in a pot. But normally i would put a lot of other things into the pot such as vegetables but i couldn't find anything in the fridge. So i guess mushrooms and eggs would just have to do.
The next morning we could not wake up early enough and ended up rushing out of the house and picking out a random church service. What i did not expect was to walk into a Spanish church service. It was so awkward, with everyone staring at you cause you're the odd one out. They even had a strict dress code, never seen a dress code for a church before. Very strange. Apart from not knowing what was said during the service, I quite enjoyed their music and songs. All so joyful.
Next stop was Chimney Brick Toast Coffee House. It was in a quite isolated area because of all the industrial companies that were around. However it was surrounded by a few other Asian restaurants and supermarkets. So the reason for us to be at this coffee house was because me and my sister was tagging along with cousin while she was having a political meeting. So we sat down at the empty table that was available, it was a shame that the table was against the wall near the restrooms. So we ordered hot drinks and hot sandwiches. My sister ordered a hot chocolate and a chicken salad sandwich where as I ordered a Mocha and a Roasted beef sandwich. I was enjoying my time until i was disturbed by the awful smell of the restrooms. Did i mention the were out of order, so it was horrible. And especially for me when I was facing the direction of the door of the restrooms. It was mostly because all the workers kept going in and out of room, which i think made it worse.
Since we were in the city of LA my cousin decided to take us to Hollywood. So we walked around the main streets of Hollywood. We walked on the street with the famous sidewalk stars, looked around the lights and all the different stores along . All the bright lights and busy side walks full of tourist. It felt so crazy to be in a place so busy and touristy. Seeing all the different buildings and structures was so amazing. All the street performances were amazing and the different people dressed up as different movie characters.
On my way back from Hollywood, I started feeling sick. It was like i was about to vomit. I tried drinking bottles of water and winding down the car window but it didn't really work. I continued feeling sick so my cousin drove through the drive through and ordered me a large Sprite. Yes, Sprite. I didn't quite understand why she would order a large Sprite. Because of all the fizz in the Sprite I thought it was a bad idea. But it turns out that it really did work, it helped my feeling of throwing up.
Well the day didn't end there. My cousins and her friends had planned to go to this event it was called 'Chill' it was like a winter wonderland. Luckily by the time we were travelling to this event I started feeling beter. When we arrived inside the event, we were shocked to discover that the ice skating rink would cost extra. This was because we expected that ice skating would be included with the administration ticket that we had bought online. Trying to move on from the fact that we would have to pay an additional amount of money just to go ice skating.
We walked on into the Ice Kingdom which was the only thing included in our administration ticket as this was the main event. Basically it was a beautiful ice kingdom with all these beautiful ice sculptures. They even provided an additional jacket because it was very very cold inside. Wearing the big blue jacket on top of what i was wearing made me look like a fat whale. Okay maybe I exaggerated a bit, but me and my sister did walk around like penguins. Yes, we're crazy in that way. So inside this ice kingdom there was ice sculptures everywhere, there was even a ice slide inside. The ice slide was very slippery and was available for all to ride and there was no limit of how many times we could slide down. After being inside the ice kingdom for a while my face started to get cold and numb. And as soon as we exited to room we were hit with this nice warm temperature.
We slowly made our way to the Queen Mary boat that was available for us to explore. We walked through the corridors of the boat and made our way out to the decks. Where the scenery was beautiful, you could see the calm harbour. You could also see the lights of the busy harbour on the other side. All so bright and beautiful. We all just stood and stared out to into the harbour, as this was happening I felt a sense of relaxation and calmness.

A feeling I havent felt in a while. And in that brief time, thoughts started popping into my head. What would I have done differently in my life. Who really matters and cares about me. What happened if I never dated Ashton. So many thoughts and all I really wanted was to be back home. Thinking that when I do get back I just want to is travel out to the city or somewhere with an amazing view and just sit there and reflect. That would be my aim after I get my Drivers license, to find a nice place with a beautiful scenic view.
No matter what happens, I try to smile even if I fail to do so.
