from hk that is. haha my first time there so i generally had lotsa fun.
buildings there were really tall.. up to 80 levels high i think. the newer office buildings haf reflective material tinted on their glass walls. against the dark backdrop of the night, the reflection of the lights created such a spectacular view.

The highlights,
Day one:
- li yu men for seafood.
- gg to the peak and taking many many photos.
- taking the tram down to the bottom. it was steeeep to the ultimate degree.
- ooh ooh and my first time sitting on a no-roof bus! like the hippo bus but cheaper
- taking the ferry from hk island to the new territories
- avenue of stars. erm but most of them were lacking in the stars' hand prints
Day two:
- woke up at 7 despite sleeping at like 2am that morning
- repulse bay. the tour guide pointed out jackie chan's house
- the jumbo place. i vaguely rmb gg there when i was 3!
- eating some dessert i've nv seen before. the bottom is sesame paste and the top is covered with some egg white-milk thingy. it was supposed to be award-winning and i guess it is, frm the satisfied "wah hen hao chi" of the uncles and aunties in my tour grp. but i din really like it.. in fact i was like yucks hahah
- the wishing tree! like the ones in the tvbs sh0ws. i made a wish!!
- nu ren jie. it was like permanent pasar malam street
Day three:
- da4 yu3 shan1. the one with the huge buddha statue. it was their vesak day and we waited more than an hour to eat lunch at the vegetarian restaurant nearby!!
- da4 ao4. it's a fishing village and we sat on this motorboat which drives us round the place to see the village pple in their houses. all of them were mahjong-ing in their houses!! the pong sound of tiles clashing was so eminent
- shopped awhile at causeway bay. oh man the number of pple there tt nite.... i was on the 3rd level of one of the shops looking down and they were like little ants surging forward
- walked along temple street since it was so near our hotel looking for stuff to buy
Day four:
- most of the day spent at ocean park. i was forced to sit the mine train roller coaster by tt twit hong. ni3 gei2 wo3 ji4 zhu4. :- shopping agn at mongkok. near nu ren jie.
- last nite at hotel. anna stayed over with us
Day Five:
- walked down nathan street along jordan road near the hotel.
- washed up, checked out, and it's bye hk and time to go home

actually there's really nth much to shop. the stuff there are pretty much the same as those in spore and the prices are also the same. so din get to buy much. bought a pair of sandals, act cute shoes (my first covered shoes!!), a black top, earrings and a bag. was hoping to get more stuff but ohwells. hahah. and yes the food was nice but it was super salty!! like salt is free liddat. shld haf checked my blood pressure level before and after the trip. hahah

came back to spore and to regular life. ahhhhh........... ohwell i once said i'm not gonna complain abt pettystuff anymore so.. but really ah i'm NOT your maid OKAY??
