Weird Wonderful Stories from London.

So, as you probably know, I am in London at the moment, I am with my friend actually. Her name is Juliet. We've had a rather interesting day today. We went to Portobello Road, but had a few adventures along the way. Firstly, we were casually waiting at the bus stop, when this tramp man comes and sits down, and starts creepy-staring at us. Then this weirdo-creepy-random-in-your-face woman comes and stands right next to my face. Juliet is standing by the bus stop sign at this moment, and the woman says "The bits of water she get wet." and I nodded. Then she started randomly shouting at Juliet saying, "You have to get out of the rain the bits of water make you very wet." and Juliet awkwardly stood there and then came back.
Juliet sat next to me and the woman came AN INCH FROM MY FACE and started asking us awkward questions like, "Where do you live?" "Where do you go to school?" and then she said to Juliet why don't you go to this school? And it was SO AWKWARD. She kept on talking to us and I was trying not to laugh my head off in the process. We finally got on the bus and she stayed there because she didn't want to get on a crowded one.
We got off when we needed to switch buses, and then we were just talking about someone smoking when the WOMEN CREEPS UP BEHIND JULIET AND STARTS TALKING AGAIN. But this time it's, "Where are you going?" "What bus are you taking?" "Where are you going to spend your money?" and Juliet said she didn't know. Because we didn't want her to follow us like she had probably done before. She was centermetres away from Juliet's face at this point. Then she turned to me and asked, "Do you trust your friend? You shouldn't trust her she hasn't got an umbrella." and weird sentences like that.
We then saw our bus coming and as we were going to get on, she STROKED MY ARM, but I got away, but she stroked Juliet's arm for AGES. It was creepy. Awkward weird times.
The other weird thing is that as we were walking up Portobello, and we were casually talking about watches. When these two women come out of no where and say, "EXCUSE ME! EXCUSE ME!" and then go up to Juliet and say, "We're from Select Model Management!" and start talking about if Juliet wanted to do modelling for them and stuff and their details. JULIET GOT SCOUTED. YAYYYYYYYYYY. So that's the other weird thing.
Hope you weren't too boredommed by reading this,
Louise :) (and Juliet)

London.

I haven't said this before on here, but up till I was 11 I lived in the wonderful city of London. My favourite place in the world, other than San Francisco and Venice. And I am going there tomorrow to see my lovely lovely old friends. You probably don't want to know what I'm going to be doing so if you want to skip this section then go ahead.
SKIP NOW!
Okaysie, well tomorrow I am, going shopping on my favourite street to shop on, Oxford Street and Regents Street. MAD DASH FOR HAMLEY'S. No I'm totally kidding. I am also going to a art exhibition of Dagas paintings. And I also might be going to The National Art Gallery. The smell of that place is lush. And then in the evening I'm having a sleepover with one of my BFFs. And then we are going shopping on Wednesday in Portobello Road, which I used to live 5 minutes walk away might I add. And we are going to the cool shops like Rough Trade etc... we also might go to Westfield. I dunno. And on Thursday my BFF is coming back to the countryside and I'm also getting my hair cute. Fringe or not? That pretty much sums up the events of half term.
UNSKIP!
I'm getting pretty hyped because NaNo starts in 7 DAYS! The day I go back to school actually, which is a super bummer because if it had been in the half term then I could have got more words done. And while all the adults are typing away on Monday morning, I shall be slaving away at school. Fun.
I just posted a thingy on a penpal website and now I've got loads of emails from 10 year olds and stuff. Great.
I am sooo busy getting Writing Buddies for Nano at the moment, I've had so many messages asking to be my writing buddy its madness. Of course I have said yes to all of them. I wouldn't just ignore someone.
I have to go now but speak to you guys soon,
Louise :)
