Dancing with myself

I remembered this song that I have heard in a lot of American shows called Dancing with myself and I thought it be an appropriate title.

Yesterday I was supposed to go our with a friend. Hahahaha, with the supposed, you can already tell that it is a foreshadow. I was supposed to go, but guess who did not turn up? Okay. I waited like an hour at Alperton station the went to go get lunch from Sainsbury's. I wondered if I should just go home, but I looked back at the train station and thought, today, I was supposed to just relax and celebrate exams being over and I can still do it anyway without a friend.

Some of my friends are unreliable, selfish or opportunists. What is so hard about coming on time? She messaged me at 14:36 saying she just woke up but it was not her fault because she was on her period and I was like, you know what, I am not even angry, I am just disappointed and actually, it's sort of my fault I expected any different. She said, next time though. I am still talking to her - for now - but actually, I do not think there is a next time and if there is, then I may just forget to show up or I will blow her off at the last minute, because actually, waiting for someone who will not turn up is not time spent well.

I went alone to the Natural history museum. It was so cool. The road was literally called Museum road and there was a tunnel from South Kensington station, leading to Victoria and Albert Museum, Natural history Museum and the Science museum. I went into Natural History Museum - the one Mike recommended when I told him I was going Museum on Friday. I had a look round and there were these large like skeletons and figures and I looked at them and I thought, wow, are they actually real fossils? Then I read closer and read what some of them said, and some are just copies, but even still, the original fossils must have been equally as big. I looked at the arthropods section. It is so cool that the museum was providing me answers to questions that I had never even questioned before. I walked in listening to music, but switched it off, because it was too distracting. I found out the difference between centipedes and millipedes. Centipedes have only one set of legs per segment of the body, whereas millipedes have two. I mean, yeah, it is not as if knowing this is revolutionised the world, but it's still worth knowing.

I went to the science museum afterwards but only stayed ten minutes because my toe and neck and head were hurting. I got on the circle to Edgware road. I needed to get on a Bakerloo line train so I thought, okay, I will get off at Paddington. The carriage I sat on was empty, but pretty soon, people came and sat in front of me. I was thinking, like, come on, there is a totally empty carriage further down, but NO you sit infront of me!

I look up and realise, crap, we are at Edgware road station, where the train terminates. What happened to Paddington? I missed it and had to get on another train to Baker street.

It was a good day out. :)
