MY LAW TRIP WAS SO AWESOME. awesome. awesome.
:B Firstly we stopped at White City and took the tube to Westminster then went to the Big Ben (Houses of Parliament) but sadly we didnt get to go inside cz we have to pre-book the visit :( Oh well i heard the teachers are gonna organise another trip for younger students so who knows we might be able to go there again :)
So we walked to the Supreme Court and this was the most awesome part for me. We actually went into the court and we had to go through this security check like in the Airport. hahaha. We went outside a courtroom (Court 1, the largest courtroom in Supreme Court) and listened to a case live on the TV screen. Actually we were meant to sit inside the courtroom but there were 24 of us so it's pretty impossible for all of us to go in there. So we're hearing this case about the army who wanted to sue the Gov for 3 reasons. The reasons are quite long so im not gonna say it here but basically the British soldiers died and they wanna sue the Gov for it. I didnt really listen to the TV but instead, i looked into the room through the door (part of it was transparent). It was so cool. The court room is so big and very vintage-looking and there were SEVEN most senior judges in there plus the only female senior judge, Lady Hale. After about 20 mins we went downstairs to another courtroom, Court 3. This one is less "serious"-looking. Idk how to say but it's still awesome. haha. Then we went to another courtroom, Court 2. A modern style courtroom and i found out so many interesting stuff i've learned in lesson which really linked to the court. SO FASCINATING. and i was so intrigued till forgot to take loads of pictures -.- I'd really love to go there again and listen to a case! But it's so far :( Even if I go to my Aunt's house, it's difficult for me to go there because I'll have to take the tube and stuff. And i'd be travelling alone :(((( It's okay. Sigh. Oh tmr im planning to visit the smaller Court called the Magistrates's Court. It's quite near my house, but I'll have to catch the bus. Hope i wont get lost -__- hahaha. I asked one of my friends to join me but dk whether she'll come :/
Okay so after visiting the Supreme Court, we went to the the the oh sugar, i forgot. Wait. OH I RMB. hahaha to many places, forgotten which is which. We went to Downing Street! Nothing much there, just saw a really cute guard. Hahahaha. Stayed there for a couple of minutes then we went to have our lunch in Covent Garden through the tube. Lunch was nothing special. I brought my lunch SUSHI! and bought Caramel Macchiato (yummy!) at Starbucks. My friends had McD's but i wasnt feeling well so didnt have appetite :(
After lunch we went to Leicester Square (China Town), Trafalgar Square and M&M's World! awesomeeee. It was interesting in there, full of M&M. But it was too expensive -.- A box of M&Ms costs £16. Like wth. No wayyyy. Took some pictures there but lazy to upload them :B check out my instagram, they're all there.
Then we went to the front of National Gallery and took some pictures and walked to Buckingham Palace. The journey was soooo long my feet were killing me. Haha. I'm not sure whether the Queen was in there but the guard said She was in. And then my law teacher lied to us saying that She'll open her window and wave at us every 30 minutes -.- hahahaha. it was so funny tho. a few people believed and waited.
After that we took the tube back to Westminster Thames embankment and teachers asked us whether we wanted to go on the boat but many of us didnt raise up our hands so we didnt because it's either all of us stay on the ground or all of us go on the boat. So in the end we went and hang out near the London Eye till 6pm and prepared to go home! The sunset view was so beautiful :') And the weather was really good as well! I didnt follow the group cz i was meant to follow my aunt home. But the thing is, MY PHONE DIED !@#$% -.- it's so annoying! i saw my phone battery and it actually has 12% remaining -.- GRR. stupid iphone. Plus my aunt and cousins didnt know that there're actually THREE entrances for the Westminster tube station so at the end my teacher had to find my aunt with me. We went thru the entrance we first came, and all the way to the one in front of the Parliament. THEY WERENT THERE. so we went to the main entrance in the opposite of the road. THANK GOD THEY'RE THERE. it's like im so troublesome and mind you, in the previous trip i was the last one to go home too -.- But it's okay. im safe and sound now. haha. Blame my stupid phone. I actually wanted to write down my cousins' telephone numbers but i didnt -____- like wth.
And i was extremely guilty not only because of having the teacher to bring me to the three different entrances, but also because of my aunt and cousins. they waited for me for almost half an hour in the entrance and they had to walk back to the station from Buckingham Palace to meet me up. Long story -___- sorry folks. haha. BUT IT'S OVER NOW :)
all in all, it's quite a productive holiday. Minus the fact that i still havent touched my hw again. And we're having a mock exam on Tuesday for the whole topic in Law T__T Sigh. So stressed out man. Then in exactly two weeks' time, IT'S OUR RESULTS DAY. i really want A's T__T so scared nervous freaked out.
***********edits. i plugged in my phone to charge it so might as well upload the pictures ;)
kay i know it's a long post. i should go now. Bye! WISH ME LUCK.
