ME
I went MAD at Paperchase and spent like 100 pounds there:/ that's where 90% of my shopping money went to. My parents will kill me if they find out lol. I bought loads of cards and stuff for Junior, I'm gonna slowly mail them to him one by one, the 100 pounds have GOT to last me for a few months. I bought loads of stickers too! And random cards cause I'm doing a stationery exchange with Alona, we're gonna send our "prison hunnies" random stuffs. Her stationery is sooo chio!!! They're really pretty. I had a hard time choosing, and she was like, it's okay you can take them all! Haha she's amazing, she's keeping me sane in this whole thing that I'm going through right now, honestly.
Anyway, I reached Manchester on Friday night, around 11, and I bussed to Piccadilly where Cheryl and Jelly picked me up (Cheryl's neighbour willingly helped pick me up, so nice right!). We talked over macarons from Laduree that Jelly brought from Paris, super yums!
We woke up quite late on Saturday morning; Cheryl made us ham and cheese paninis for breakfast.
We walked around Manch's shopping street, then my phone got stolen (wtf right seriously) and I went to the Apple store to try and track it but the person off-ed it. Haiz. Went for dim sum lunch! I love dim sum, and I miss it alot, Ireland has NO dim sum lol, not in Galway at least.
We had 2 rounds of dim sum, though the 2nd round was pretty small! We hopped over to some other cafe for dessert! Mango Snow Ice zomgggg:)
After lunch, we went to Arndale Shopping Mall. Cheryl and I went to a card shop, and we both got hooked onto this mini section of the shop which sells wallet cards and that crazy woman bought SUPER ALOT of wallet cards omgggg.
Lol, she's pretending to be making up her mind as to which cards to buy, but in reality, she bought the whole lot. Haha. We went for dinner at an Indian restaurant, where me and Jelly shared this FREAKING HUGE naan.
Mega, right??? We went back to Cheryl's apartment after that, and played with making poofs on each other's hair, and went to bed reallyyyy late. We had Sunday brunch at some cutesy tea place in Northern Quarters.
We went shopping after that (yes, again), and then we went for karaoke at night with some of Cheryl's friends, and to celebrate her birthday.
They lighted sparklers for candles, and forgot that there was a fire alarm right above the cake! Luckily, the smoke didn't set off the alarm!
Jelly and I rushed to do some last minute shopping on Monday morning while Cheryl went for lessons. We ate cinnamon twists for breakfast. I bought coconut soya milk at Lameizi, some Chinese supermarket below Cheryl's apartment block. It was okay, nothing fantastic, it just tasted like coconut in soya milk lol. I went to the airport early, cause Jelly's flight was 2 hours earlier, so I hung around Caffe Nero. I bought myself a dark chocolate mocha and a chocolate cheesecake, super sinful but yums:) I brought a book along on this trip, so I read that to while time away.
I guess I had a good weekend trip (aside from losing my phone). I'll upload pics of my Paperchase (and other stationery) madness in another post:)
