Yeah i'm back from Hongkong (:

It has been a wonderful time with my lovely jiemeis.

After spending a few days together, we saw the unglam side of each other, had late night heart to heart talks, camwhored like nobody's business, laughed till we cried and got comfortable in silence.

It hasn't been the most carefree holiday that we could ask for, hindered by the fear of influenzaA. The plan has been postponed time and again, but eventually we still went ahead with it as local cases got uncontrollable.

It's really great travelling with friends, because we learn to be independent. Everywhere we went it's handphone-wallet-passport-camera check before leaving. We got on the plane (unglam photos with mask on facebook) and arrived in HOngKoNg!



There were some minor crop ups when we arrived, because we couldn't find the person who was supposed to pick us up. So we contemplated between calling the airport hotline and standing around to wait, indeed the latter was more user friendly. True enough, the person appeared before us, we couldn't locate him because he wasn't holding the recognition card nor was he standing at the spot where we were to find him. tsk tsk slacker. But anyway he was friendly and helped us take a photo in hongkong airport.


We got on the coach that would take us to our hotel- Kimberly Hotel

It was OMG empty and we had the bus to ourselves~



Kimberly Hotel

Our room!



After enough of camwhoring in our room which was still nice and tidy, we went out to shop. There wasn't much to do because half the day was gone.

Purchasing our Octopus cards.. Taking cab across the island is Expensive because we had to pay Toll. We learnt that one day. We had a little advice from our "tour guide" to take cab within the island and MTR across island. Hongkong could be divided into Kowloon, Lautau and Hong kong islands.

We walked along Nathan Road (which stretches for at least three MTR stations) and in ladies street (we had no idea it was) till we got so tired, and Elaine craved for bubble tea~ "Pearls! I'll buy pearls if i see pearls!" They had this big cup of bubble tea that cost about S$2plus which they call Gong Cha, the queue was super long, business was continuous. We saw it on the first day but skipped it because we were still enthusiastic about other things. By day 3, elaine's cravings just couldn't be resisted. hahaha.

We stood by the street looking on at the crowd, enjoying our desired bubble tea. Hongkong had twice as much land as Singapore and twice as many people. But 75% of the land were mountain hence that makes flat land extremely populated. The buildings were very tall, each residential building were easily forty storeys high. And we had dinner at Ajisen Ramen. Apparently Ajisen in Hongkong has a different menu from that in Singapore and we were recommended to try.

Suspicious character. Heh.

We continued shopping and took photos of the street after dinner.

We came across a VJC shop. LOL. Which was EX. At that time the shop was already closed because we were walking back to the hotel. And we looked like terrorist suspiciously taking photos infront of a dark shop.

Irony of the signboards.

End of day one. To be continued..

Hi everyone. I should say you must be scrutinizing every part of my blog to be reading this arent you? Well, if you're that bored or interested in me, this is me you're looking at. Just a typical mundane human being living in this distorted world filled with what we call friends and foes. It's just me to get all maudlin and touchy about friendships and covalent bonds that i painstakingly built, and it's most dreading to realise what you call friends are actually fair-weathered ones and ditch you for others. You know.. that sort of ambivalent feelings which arises with such friendships. From young, my pedagogues have complained of me being temperamental and from there i have learnt and seen the world beyond me, where there happened to be people fairing far worst than i do. I realised in this period of isolation that life turns out to be happier for everyone if people knew how to be sate with life. It's just in the genes that human beings have to take things for granted and learn to appreciate things only when they have lost it. Sad isn't it?. I admit possessing that characteristic, which led me to losing what i should have treasured most, with great regrets. Now, like Krishna, we are inclined to seeking comfort from things that we are familiar with, unaccustomed to changes. It may not appear to be me on the outside, braving the winds of the outside world, strong and unbeatable. Like the saying goes, never judge the book by its cover, and i believe in that, in the way i credit people. We all treasure private space don't we?.. It's just human nature. And of course it most dreading to feel deserted by your friends isn't it.. ? To feel cheated and betrayed.. Well, live a sate life readers!
