Americanish
by Was feelin a bit peckish this morn, stopped for a cup a' and an egg and cheese bap. Fantastic! Had a smashing time in Jolly Ol' England, didn't we? When me mate Gemma told me she wus to be wed, I knew I just had to come across! Strange how I liTrally 'ave a famly 3,500 miles 'cross the Atlantic! Love visitin the Pooles. Gemma found herself a dashing lad, didn't she? Duke is absolutely wonderful, treats her like a queen. She sure looked like a queen, she was georgeous on her weddin day, yeah. They're on holiday, yeah, in the South of France. How handy! All are doin quite well there in the Birchwood congregation, they've taken to us Americans quickly, s'as if we've bin there all along, haven't we? Yeah. Colin and Jackie are lovely, as always, drinkin mamosas after a long day's work a buildin conservat'ries and a cleanin! John and Charli bin courtin 3 months now! Vickie's courtin a bloke too, almost a year now. Got quite close to Ricky this time around. He's my scrumpet scuffin, of the white chocolate chip macademia nut kind, toasted with butter, naturally. Haha! Neveryourmind! He taught us more Brit sayins and such, stuff we should say and stuff we shouldn't like "I seemed to have gone toilet on your floor." or "You've given me a wet willy, haven't ya?" or "I'm going to stick things in your pants!" Pants, no not jeans or slacks, underwear! I 'ave a special spot in my heart for the smelly ol' bloke and the Americanish we and and my mate Niks have started up:
You cheeky tart = You cheechy tart!
Scrumpet (flusy) = Scrumpety skank!
Your father was a hamster and your mother smelled of elderberrys = Your mom's mom was a Jezebel!
And s'funny how I con't say CRAP but they can drop the ace and biznatch bombs however they fancy! Fantastic, ain't it? Ahh, this is where it's at ducks. No backpackin' through Europe, fetchin black cabs 'n' stayin in random hostels with other dudes from America...no sir. It's chattin it up wit lads and lasses, learnin the culture, yeah, like Livvy said "branchin out!"

they can't say oh my god either. Brits!! who needs em?? jk... i'll get to check em out first hand in a week or so
I know, but they seem to say variations like gee-golly tho..it's so interestin! What's got you goin across?
just a random trip, never been there before, wanna check it out
You're gonna have a blast, what 'ave ya got planned?
not a whole lot really, i think we were mostly gonna just play it by ear. got any suggestions?
who are you going with?
rachel, nicole, jesse, and two others from cherry hill area, dave and christin
Welp, ya gotta see all the spots like the palace, big ben, tower bridge, london eye, etc. but you can do all of that pretty much in one day if you fetch the Big Bus Company route. You can hop off at each stop, check it out and then get back to the bus stop to catch another which will take ya to the next site. The Subway system is the easiest and most user-friendly around so you could see all the sites on your own too. Also, the British museum has a great Bible exhibit I hear. There's the Theatre district, China Town, Picadilly Circus is where a lot of young people chill-live music sometimes and there's a virgin mega music store and an internet cafe there too. Trafalgar Square is cool..whenever there's events/protests, it happens there. There's a Cheers Bar you could check out. Go to Harrod's, it's like the craziest enormous posh department store ever! Definitely just for window shopping :) Go to Soho for the shops and record stores, it's a little creepy in that area but it'll keep ya on your toes. There's SO much! I only spent a few days there, not nearly enough.
you know what's amazing, harrod's is an entire city block. it's huge.
i've done the bible tour at the british museum, it's given by bethelites (if my memory serves). call bethel ahead of time to get a time for a tour guide. this is DEFINITELY worth it. there's a few different tours they give (plus, it's nice to meet some new witnesses when you're on vacation with billions of worldly people).
nice lookin out Dan. I have to do that next time.
Ya know, at the weddin there was a group of asian lads and one looked like you..he practically leaped onto the dance floor at the sound of punjabi beats. They all did, it was brilliant! Anywho, he was all tryna find common ground with me so ya know what he said? "From America are ya? Oh yeah, the hostess wit the mostess!" I foolishly replied, "You guys say that too?" and he said "No..but you do, right?" Yeeeeeeeeea...weirdo. haha
i look asian?? what the?? ty, did you see this? we're like brothers now!
Asian as in Indian...
like from Indo-China?

No Indian people are considered an asian people. Like when they celebrate Asian heritage month they're in there LOL!

I can't waitto go to england. My plane leaves in about 77 hours
where are u gonna be at? We're staying in London
Oh we are going to be in london for I think one or two days, we are going to bethel, and and some musium. But the whole rest of the trip we are going to be in the town of eye and near norwich and such we rented a house in eye, its like a bread and breakfast type looking place but if the people who were running the place left and it was just us there
technically russians are asian too
Oi! Mind elaboratin, do ya?
whats there to elaborate.
Asia is from saudi arabia to indonesia.
The Asian continent, that is.
ahh, I was bein a bit daft...never thought of it that way, really.
