The Blister and The Weather

So yesterday, I decided that I should get out of the house. After finishing the chores at home and after lunch, I went out.

You see, my sister's house has many interesting roads around that I have yet to see because the bus routes we used will stop right in front of the house. If we were to continue sitting on the bus, there will be another whole area on the other side of the town. So I happily headed down that road, not knowing where it will lead me to. Oh, the bus says it will head towards Wapping.

As I walked, I felt my blister pain I got because of the basketball game. My socks were too short. I took the risk and forgot that the blisters have not healed yet. Sat down on some random chair and put some plasters on.

Then, I passed by a kindergarden. Since I arrived, and even when I came here 2 years ago, I have never come across any school at all. I could hear the kids screaming and laughing. I could even hear music! But they were all outside at the playground. It was hardly visible for me to see the whole school but at least, I found a school!

Then, I walked down further, not knowing which direction I should head to. This is tough. Directionless again. But then, I knew I was in those kind of neighborhood. Out of town. The neighborhood that I wouldn't be able to find when I am in London town. And, I managed to see the name of that neighborhood. Yeap, it was the Wapping Neighborhood.

They have small little shops around, groceries, laundries. I even passed by a Hospital Center. This is some scene that London town does not have. It is so quiet. And I think this is the kind of place where everyone in the neighborhood knows everyone because some guy just randomly stopped at a shop and started chatting with the shop keeper. I must have been an alien there and they must be wondering who the heck I am. That was when I started to feel uneasy. I felt that I have to get out of this place FAST!.

And, I think I got lost for a while. The place really was quiet. Not many people around to roughly guess which direction I should go. So, I depended on my sense of direction. And luckily, I found my familiar territory.

Decided to just head towards the garden by the River Thames so that I can sit down and see the view and read my book. But my plasters were not useful anymore and I was bleeding. So I headed home first to change to a longer pair of socks. I even changed my jacket because the jacket I took from my sister's closet was a bit too warm for me.

Destination two was easy for me because I found this place last week. The difference compare to last week was that, the place was empty. Hmm, because there was no sun? Haha, see, the obsession for sun for people in London! LOL

So I sat there, looking at Tower Bridge and the ships around. Hmm, my plan was to hang around until dinner time. But I couldn't. It was getting colder. And I don't see the fun in staying out here reading my book when I can actually do it at home, comfortably.

So, I headed home.

I am thinking twice about staying here for 5 months. Will I last? Hmm, shall wait and see.

Oh, I passed by this duckling family! so CUTEEEE...
