wednesday, 17th july

I came back yesterday. Train ride back home was better because it was actually a first class car, but later it became unbearable when all foreigners get out at Kraków Główny. Paying 59czk for a coffee made sense here as I finally had a nice one I'd get in cafe instead of some instant coffee for same money. I have 1,7k pictures to go through and laundry to do, I managed to unpack and clean up my bedroom a bit but I still have more things to do.

Prague was so fun and it was even better when I went out alone on my own after I got hang of the transit system which is so good, though next time I might get the visitor pass... but I need to calculate how much all transit and museum tickets would cost without it, also I need to know if I can get on the Zizkov Tower with it for free (I wanted to go but I didn't have cash at that moment unfortunately, as their terminals broke). Outlet in Sternoholy is overrated and outlets mostly are a scam, but funnily enough jeans in cut and color I wanted were only 850czk each. I got a linen Benetton top for 40% of original price but I now feel it still was overpriced.

I got some fabrics I wanted, though I wish I had saved up more money. I smelled perfumes I was interested in... Clinique's Happy was initially disappointing, felt like old lady floral but next time I felt the citrus more. Men's one is better and it skews super unisex, I'd use it and if I had a male I'd 100% force him to wear it. Clinique had own store here and they had a good discount on certain products, 50% off if you buy two. I got a lipliner and a quad eyeshadow palette I actually wanted. I could test the purple one too, I'd get it if I wasn't so pussy to wear purple eyeshadow. I wish they had one in cold brown or gray honestly. It truly was first eyeshadow that doesn't cause allergic reaction around my eyes. I tested some from Lancome at Sephora and they wasn't what I wanted, I should go to Estee Lauder store too as I was interested in their eyeshadow ranges too.

I'm gonna go through photos I took, I need to transcribe 4 days of trip diary for now and try to remember what I did between Friday and Monday as I went into so many places on my own... Gonna go back to cleaning my sewing room now.

I didn't read that much. I'm just gonna return most of books I have on loan for now, I'll leave 3 that I actually will read...

Being away and not desiring to update the site did ground my feelings, emotions... I was spiraling so badly before this trip and it seems it did help me think over some things. I don't desire being online that much anymore. Internet isn't fun anymore.
