day 12

Christmas Day was spent travelling around HK, riding on trams and drinking Starbucks overlooking Victoria Harbour. It's been a long day, ending with an extended family dinner at Mei Foo's Foo Lum restaurant; the chicken was HK$1 each! Took the taxi back home and craving some sleep!   Foggy Victoria Harbour at noon, the whole place was filled with tourists of several nationalities, tugging their Canon and Nikon cameras. This is the...

day 11

Wishing all my Australian readers a Merry Christmas! Hope you people have a lovely day celebrating with your family and friends :) As for me, I still have one hour of Christmas Eve to go and I'm excited for tomorrow's events! We're going to a food convention in Wan Chai; mum said there's a lot of food so it should be a swell day. I got back from a Christmas Eve dinner with my relatives at a (you guessed it) Chinese restaurant! I felt like dressing...

day 9

I wasn't blogging yesterday because I was exhausted from shopping my sorrows away but I'm back again! Hopefully I'll be able to blog for the rest of my trip :) Today we were going to head out to Tsim Sha Tsui but due to exhaustion, I wanted to go somewhere closer. So we went to Metro City.   Alive and well, a day after the ATAR release!! Lunch, at KFC! HK$116 consisted of three bowls of rice, fried stuff, egg tarts, chicken and drinks....

day 7

This was my breakfast before leaving for Diamond Hill. It was from a bakery near my place and it was nice!   After taking the bus and MTR, we arrived at Hollywood Plaza. We shopped around at clothing stores and were pestered by the shopkeepers. It's something I dislike about HK; they just don't stop recommending clothes for you and asking you whether you like something or not! Some of them aren't so nice and bitch about you if you don't...

day 6

This morning, people were awake at the crack of dawn to find out their HSC results. As for me, I woke up at noon to find out I didn't actually have my HSC pin with me and had no idea what it was! As a result, my results remain a mystery to me but I just need to know my ATAR. My desperation was quite tiring so I dropped it and went out to Telford Gardens, Kowloon Bay. All those Chanel, Dior, Kiehl's, Benefit, ZARA etc. stores! My brother...

Festivities at Tseung Kwan O's Metro City mall Some of the 11 dishes from yum cha with the gran The oversized H&M shopping bag was so cute! It was just fun to wear Doubt anyone could actually look that good with those undies ;( Pho for tea, this was the lemongrass pork one I was so excited when I saw Zara because it wasn't open at Metro City two years ago. So I had to purchase something! HK$199... bit pricey for a tee...

day 4

Went to APM mall today for a spot of shopping and didn't come home empty-handed. There was a Steve Madden store but the shoes are double the price of those in the US, what a shame!     APM mall festivities, Kwun Tong     So many levels, there are escalators crossing them a la Hogwarts!   UNIQLO haul, due to the massive sales spent approx HK$1000. That is what post-HSC holidays does to you! Fluffy...
