WATER CULT

TODAY I WENT HYDE PARK WITH BOB. I HAVE A MENTAL BUCKET LIST OF THINGS I WANT TO DO THIS SUMMER (TO STOP MYSELF FROM STRESSING OUT TOO MUCH ABOUT UCAS AND STUDYING).

WE MET UP AT 12:00 AND GOT ON THE TRAIN. IT WAS QUITE PACKED. THERE WAS THIS LITTLE GIRL AND PRESUMABLY HER DAD AND SHE WAS LIKE TO HIM 'WHOSE A GOOD PARENT?' I WAS JUST SAT THERE LAUGHING. WE ATE CHERRIES ON THE TRAIN. YESTERDAY AGATA SAW SOMETHING SHE THOUGHY WAS CHERRIES ON A TREE AND DECIDED TO TRY ONE. THE DIGUST ON HER FACE WAS SO FUNNY! I DECIDING THAT I DID NOT WANT AGATA TO GET POISONED BOUGHT REAL CHERRIES.

WE GOT TO HYDE PARK THROUGH MARBLE ARCH AND HAD A LONG WALK. AGATA COULD NOT BRING HERSELF TO SAY THAT I WAS RIGHT WHEN IT  CAME TO THE DIRECTIONS. WE REACHED THE PRINCESS DIANA MEMORIAL FOUNTAIN AND BEGAN TO WALK AROUND IT AND GET WET. IT WAS RIDICULOUSLY COLD AT FIRST - LIKE WE WERE STEPPING IN ICE. HOWEVER WE SOON GOT USED TO IT.

WE DECIDED THAT WE WOULD GO TO THE DEEP END SOME HOW AND ONCE THERE, WE SAT DOWN. SOON ENOUGH, WE WERE SOON ATTRACTING A LOT OF ATTENTION. THIS GIRL CAME A LONG - SOPHIA - I THINK HER MOTHER CALLED HER, AND SHE BEGUN TO WET US AND SPLASH. SHE BECAME MY SWIMMING INSTRUCTOR FOR THE DAY. I WAS REALLY SORT OF LIKE NOT JEALOUS BUT IN AWE THAT A 7 YEAR OLD COULD SWIM AND THAT I COULD NOT. SOON ENOUGH, THIS OTHER GIRL CAME, I FORGET HER NAME, BUT AGATA CALLED HER HER SOUL MATE. THIS 3 YEAR OLD BOY CAME AS WELL; AN AMERICAN SOUNDING GIRL AND A GIRL CALLED ISABEL. TOGETHER, WE DECIDED WHICH PASSERS BY WE WOULD WET AND WHICH WE WOULD ALLOW. THE AMERICAN GIRL MADE US RECITE RULES, SUCH ' WE ONLY WET PEOPLE WITH BATHING SUITS,' AND ' WE DO NOT WET PARENTS WITH THEIR CHILDREN,'

IT WAS THE MOST FUN I HAVE HAD IN AGES! I COULD NOT HELP BUT THINK THAT CHILDREN ARE SO BEAUTIFULLY INNOCENT. ONLY A CHILD WOULD RANDOMLY START TALKING TO TWO TEENAGE GIRLS AND PLAY WITH THEM. TEENAGERS WILL BE TOO CAUGHT UP ABOUT WHAT IS COOL AND WHAT IS NOT AND ADULTS WILL SCOFF AND BE LIKE 'TEENAGERS THESE DAYS!'

HOWEVER, ONE OF THE KIDS LET AGATA HUG HER WHEN SHE WAS COLD AND SOPHIA HUGGED ME AND TRIED TO REFUSE LETTING GO OF ME. SHE EVEN SAID SHE WISH I WAS HER OLDER SISTER. ISABEL TOLD AGATA SHE WISHED SHE WAS HER SISTER AND ALSO TOLD HER THAT HER DAD WORKED IN IRELAND AND SHE HARDLY SAW HIM. IT WAS SAD BECAUSE SHE WASN'T EVEN THERE WITH HER MOTHER BUT HER NANNY. :(
