UPDATES:

-i'm back, alive after 2 days not coming back to Glion. 1st day i stayed in the Bern TRAIN STATION. not in the waiting room, but with the homeless and crazy people who are out there staying in the train station. Beth and I together with a couple who came over from Britain. We sat on the ROCK through the night, fortunately we managed to stay up chatting. Really nice knowing them, Osman and Mubarka. If not for them, Beth and I would probably just die there. Problem: Stupid train in Switzerland. it is the worst train system i've ever seen in my life.
1 - they have very very very long intervals for trains.
2 - if one train is delayed, the others will continue moving. i.e. the people on that train, can't catch the scheduled trains. meaning, if it is for the last train on the schedule, the people would probably be stuck at the transiting station. WHICH, was of course, what happened to us.
3 - the schedule available on the INTERNET, on the TRAIN STATION BOARDS and their INFORMATION COUNTERS vary!

If you ever come to Switzerland, DO MAKE SURE THAT YOU MAKE TIME TO TRAVEL FROM ONE FREAKING PLACE TO THE OTHER. i.e. you should leave the place maximum, three hours you arrive. if you are planning to go to like the Italian speaking area back to the French speaking area. AHHHHHHHH. PISSED to the max mannn-.

THEN, on the second day...
We planned and made sure that we could get out of that freaking place early enough... So we took the train at 5pm. ASSUMING that 7 full hours of travelling would definitely get our ass back into Glion. Only to realise that...

THE STUPID TRAIN WAS STUCK AT EBIKON (some ulu malu place) BECAUSE LUZERN'S TRAIN STATION HAD TECHNICAL PROBLEMS. essentially, our train was supposed to arrive Luzern in time for us to take the train leaving there... So, we were stuck there for an hour or so, and decided to alight with everyone else to catch the bus. And guess what? we were made to pay for the stupid bus ride. 3.80CHF okie... four bucks plus for a damn bus ride. EX like shiat.

and the SAME train master saw us again. Obviously, he was on the verge of being shocked to death and went YOU GUYS AGAIN?! okie, we were like the ONLY TWO ASIANS on the ENTIRE train, so i can fathom why he had such a deep impression of us.

FINALLY we found our place to deposit our butts. Roxanne's place and Konolfingen. Phew. a place to shower, to eat, to sleep. awwwwwww. all thanks to her, if not for her, we'd probably make friends with the crazy at Bern's station.

Digression: Beth and I couldn't stay at a hotel because we didn't have our B permit with us (she didn't bring it, as for ME, i haven't gotten that damn permit. screwed.) and no passports, and they DIDN'T ACCEPT MY DRIVING LICENCE. whatthehell.

Back to the point. So there was it. Our two days, without coming back to Glion, i miss this place to bits. We were over at Lugano, Bellinzona and Mendrisio. LOADS of shopping. then we headed down to Thun with Roxanne today. When it comes to shopping, i'm never tired. =)=)=)

Receipt List:

- Bally bag (500CHF, now 200CHF. WORTH IT MANNNNN.)
- 2 tops, Gloves and 1 skirt from H&M (Cheap to the MAX.)
- Flowerbomb by Victor&Rolf (DAMN nice. to die for. melts. only 120CHF.)
- 2 tops from Tommy Hilfiger (It's a steal mann! But it's still a little ex...)
- 2 tops from Esprit (Cheap and Good!!! hahas* sounds so auntie..)
- Gloves and Mufflers from D&A (So PRETTY... WHITE. melts-.)
- Lipstick from Estee Lauder (For my mum...)
- Mask, Eyecream, Eyeliner, Concealer from Clinique (all time fav. plus gift bag. owwwwww.)
- Bag from Manor (It's like only 40CHF!!! It's the BEST bag to bring to lectures. SO SOFT... and if you stuff a jacket it... AWWWWW. pillow for lecture mannnnnn. Chris will love my bag for sure. hahas* gonna bring that to bugis street to put all the stuff i'm gonna buy from there. i will never ever bring my LV there again... neither am i gonna risk my gucci or bally.. SCARY.)
- Gloves and scarf from Manor (it's grey with the cute cute ball-y stuff.)

that's about all. think i didn't miss anything out i hope. New addition to my TO BUY list.

- Esprit sling bag.
- Armani heels.
- Salvatore heels... i haven't even stepped into the store. pouts-.

The Gucci and Dior stores were a disappointment though. not as fantastic as I thought... The designs were at least one to two seasons ago. Hopefully my cussie's wife can get into the private sales for Dior again. I will make sure she gets my stuff. =) Gaucho... owwwwwwwww.

How i wish i could shout this out...

I MISS YOU MANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN.

okies, assume that i've shouted this out. Sucha coward ah fuxinyan. haiz.

The only reason why i sound so optimistic, is because i just can't seem to cry anymore. Cannot cry, then be happy lorr. Right? =)
