Today on Mike: Shop London!

Today we went on the Shop London trip. We made a mathematical equation for it:

(mike * credit card)shopping = 0

Where:

  • mike is uncontrollable spending
  • credit card is no spending limit
  • shopping is unlimited shopping oppurtunities
  • 0 is the amount of money left

I bought way to much. First thing I did was play DRR. Well actually it was go with Steve, and leave Monica, Sarah, Lily and Cynthia at Harrod's because they planned on shopping all day without eating. Not cool. Then we did a giant circle with Taavo, Carney, G-Spot, Tyler, Ben and Cheng, so we could leave Taavo and Carney to go DDR while they went to the Estonian Embassy to get a picture with the ambassador. (They never did get the picture, the ambassador was in Estonia)

DDR was poop. I had just eaten so I ended up with mega cramps, and it was hot and yucky and I kept spacing out. I still had fun though. Then I played Time Crisis II and I've decided I want one of those in my basement. Along with DDR. We ended up splitting up so Steve could buy his dad glasses. And then the spending started.

First we went to HMV. I spent £95 (which is about $240). I bought a CD holder, the old Nelly CD, the new Nelly CD, the Matrix Reloaded Soundtrack, The Beyonce CD, the Justin Timberlake CD, and the Best of Pure R&B Summer 2003. Then we walked all over downtown London trying to get the glasses for Steve's dad. IT took and hour and a half because the first store didnt have the glasses, and we had to go to another one. We finally found the Sunglasses Hut though. To celebrate I went into the Disney Store and bought my sister and mom souveniers. Then I bought a £70 ($164) watch while Steve bought the glasses. When we were all done, we still had two hours to kill. So we road the subway!

Subway Stats:

  • London Circle Line - Full Loop: 1 hour 2 minutes.
  • We got on at Westminster.
  • We got off at South Kensington.
  • It took 1 hour 9 minutes.
  • the drive took a bathroom break: once.
  • We got cut off: once.

Now don't ask me how you can get cut off on a subway tack. I have no idea. I know we did manage to rearrange my CDs so they're in alphabetical order, much to the amusement of some of the passengers on the train. When we got back to the bus we ended up leaving late because someone (*cough*sex*cough*) tried to cheat and get on the cool bus and not the ugly bus.

I think I eat too much. I've been out of money the last three days. I had to borrow money from Jen because I coulnd't afford McDonald's. I can't believe tomorrow is our last day.

Thanks!
Mike.
