Trafalgar Square

I worked a 3 course dining event meal the other day and oh my lord was it prim and proper. I'm talking 3 forks 2 spoons 3 kinves. And me and the rest of the servers wore white gloves when serving food, and there was even a proper way to bring the food to the table and set it down that we had to be taught. Ya my family could NEVER go to one of those events. Connor would be there with his shirt on backwards like usual and his underwear sticking out. Keifer would want to come in pajamas and only my family will understand this because that's all he ever wears! Like ever! Ya my family could just never go to one of those.

I have been working a lot lately, only 3 separate days off in 3 weeks. But I really don't mind because I went without a job for so long I was ready to work a lot. And because mom and dad will be here soon I will have plenty of time off anyways. So because I didn't work today I decided to take advantage of it and get out and be a tourist again. 

I went to Trafalgar Square today, walked around for a bit. There is a Canadian consulate building in the square but because it's Saturday it wasn't open so I didn't get to go inside. I was in the square when I noticed I could see Big Ben from there from far away, so I decided to walk down and see it again. I hadn't walked down these streets anyways so why not. When I got to Big Ben I went on a different bridge this time and was able to see Westminster abbey, Big Ben, and the London eye from a different view from the last time. 

After that I met up with Jadyn, she was supposed to meet a friend close to where I was but they didn't end up meeting so me and her got together instead. I walked back to Trafalgar Square and we went into the art gallery's together then went out for supper. AMAZING SUPPER. It was just a typical restaurant and it was very cheap too. I had a chicken with corn on the cob and mashed potatoes and again almost cried because I never get good quality food like that. 

Me and Jadyn are becoming really good friends. In fact we are even planning a trip to Amsterdam together near the end of April! She got an au pair job in Glasgow and has time off from the 21-25 and mom and dad are leaving Scotland anyways on the 17th. So I will just hang around touring by myself for those 4 days until me and her catch a plane to Amsterdam. Flights are beyond cheap too. Round trip from Glasgow to Amsterdam is only 200 dollars. That's absolutely insaine! 

I work tomorrow until Wednesday and then have Thursday off which is good cause then me and jadyn plan to go to the sky gardens and maybe do a river boat cruise. But we'll wait and see. And in 6 days mom and dad will be here!!!
