This weekend....well, this weekend.....was pretty cool. Yes, the weather was a bit on the cool side, but that's not what I'm talking about.
One of Chris' buddies came to visit us for the weekend and stayed in my tiny apartment (sofa bed - the now infamous sofa bed since that's where all our guests stay - the only place other than our bedroom). I cleaned for 3 days to get the house ready, threw away 4 big bags of junk that I've been accumulating in my house.
The weekend began with my dress fitting, a traditional gown in purple with hints of black and silver. Looked gorgeous. That is, of course, if I continue to maintain my current weight and shape. But it should be fine.
His friend arrived at my house later in the afternoon, sort of. He missed the bus stop and therefore, got a bit lost. Anyway, he managed to find the place, unpacked, and then we headed out.
We met up with some mutual friends at Soho (trust me, there is some sort of a "Soho" area in every city) and settled down quite comfortably at a lounge and chatted away until the wee hours of the night. But that's not the highlight of the weekend.
The highlight was this: Chris' friend treated us to a fancy-schmancy high tea the next day before his flight back home. We were whisked away to the 103rd floor of the hotel and enjoyed the chocolate-themed afternoon tea. We had a great view of the city, the sea, everything.
It was my first being in such an exclusive place. So, it was kinda neat. Thanks! =)
