So we finally got to have a nice North Indian Thali Meals @ Trafalgar Square (after 4 days hehe).
Salad, Butter chicken, lamp gravy, Onion Bhajji and Rice Indian food tastes err different abroad ! :D Oh well it was good enough to keep me on my toes for the next few hours :) It was a simple meal, but i enjoyed it simply because I was starving and hadn't eaten well in 4 hrs :P
Gallivanting aimlessly at Trafalgar square, London after dinner we walked past a an artist.
Mr Whatshisname:Yes yes No ?
Me: Hmm ok!
My mind voice: Wokay Bass! get back to work!
Then I recollected what Mr.Whatshisname said earlier!~ *FLASH BACK*
" Like Monalisa, I draw you "

Well impressed by his work , I was so tempted to get my portrait done, so I went for it!
There is something almost intriguing about the way an artist views his subject and draws them ..
I of course cud not keep quiet for long, So I began a conversation with Mr..(I don't remember his name)
I learn t he was previously a high school art teacher in China before migrating to Britain to find employment which he never did :(
Ok back to the portrait
So half way through the portrait, our conversation..
Mr Whatshisname: Like Monalisa, I draw u!
Me: Oh My really!
Me: Hmm ok!
Mr Whatshisname: Ohh u has long hair I see! Oh u wears nice dress , very beautiful very nice!
Me: *Awkward smile*
So finally he gave a thumbs up and said 'Yes its ready, come and see'
Lovely portrait! Monalisa smile alright! Ooo High Cheek bones and doe eyes!
Err Just one thing.. in my mind voice of course
Dude where is my face?
