Greetings my dear friend.
How have you been? I am so tired right now, but a mocha is making me feel better. I can count all the number of coffees I’ve had on one hand (5 lol, including this one from pret at the airport). I’m thinking it’s a good idea to stick it through and stay awake until night time in the UK, I am usually very good about beating jet lag within a day’s time.

For those who are with me on instagram, you might have seen the ‘slight hiccup’ in today’s travel details. It’s definitely partially my fault for not being more careful- but I basically asked an employee for directions, and was led to a complete wrong end of the airport. Had to take a couple buses to travel back and forth, go through multiple security checkpoints & borders… resulting in me missing my connecting flight.

It’s no big deal, because I am very patient! Don’t mind waiting, as I have lots of editing to work through on my hands. What concerned me was inconveniencing those waiting for me on the other side! But what happened can’t be undone, and I am just very thankful to even have a flight out on the same day. I am safe, warm and healthy. So I’m sitting here in pret, with The Lumineers in my ears, shutting the rest of the world out.

An exciting week lies ahead, I have no idea what is to come, but I will surely do my best and not let you down. I wouldn’t be sitting my butt in this chair in this airport if it weren’t for this platform, and our incredible community. I will never forget that, and I am so grateful.

I hope you get to catch the incredibles 2 movie soon and let me know what you think. I watched it when I was 8, even though it came out 3 years earlier. I lived in china when it first came out, I actually even remember seeing their posters in our magazines. A boy in my class was going on about dash “running on water”, but I had 0 clue what he was talking about. I still remember very clearly first watching this movie.. It was in my mom’s 1 bedroom apartment in cupertino, I was sitting on the ground. The tv was those chunky square ones with the curved screen LOL. And I didn’t understand A WORD. But LOVED IT. Sometimes actions speak louder than words, right? I think all I understood was when Edna Mode said “Edna Mode...and Guest”.

Watching this sequel- 11 years later brought tears to my eyes. It reminded me of the little girl I once was, and how far I’ve come since then.. Also, I love Brad Bird. Very much. Not only is he an amazing writer and director (of this movie), he created my favorite movie of all time… Ratatouille.

I am so happy right now, and I have you to thank for a large part of that. I hope to come back from this trip with lots to share. I love you, and I will see you soon. Be safe, and take care of yourself.

Love,
Annabelle
