ただいま!!!(^0^)
10:25 PM

I'M BACK!!!! (at least temporarily...)

Hongkong was okay.... Maybe it's because of the short trip this time, everything was kinda rushed. And I no like rush at all. But of course no matter how short of time, I'll shop and shop. What is a hk trip without shopping??! But believe me, I DID NOT BUY ALOT THIS TIME!!! Somehow I have a feeling no one at all will believe me. Bleh.
Go back in time....

2nd March (Fri)
Touch down! First was back home of course.


On the cityflyer bus.

This sushi roll from the airport's 7-11 is not nice at all. All hard and dry (>_<) But I love the hot vitasoy!!! The stuffed turtle belongs to sis of course. Like why would I bring a toy on trips ( -__-)
After unloading at home, we met winnie for lunch at the noodle restaurant along the tram road in sheung wan. I love their green milk tea. OISHIII~~ Then sis and i wandered around sheungwan and central buying our beauty products. hahah~ And also the 10 dollar jusco store. The stuff there are soooo kawaii. They even have microwave popcorn in mini size!! *heart* I actually bought a cardigan that's HK$10. Like OMG cheap. It's some roadside stall~ But nice! Well, I won't buy things that I myself don't find nice yea...

And this is another nice thing. COKE!!!! This range of coke cans are sooooo pretty!!!! There's other designs too. Like balloons and confetti etc... I was so tempted to buy the whole range back!!! But obviously that's not a smart thing to do...

3rd March (Sat)
The thing I came back to hk for - SmartID.
So we woke up really early and went down to Wanchai to get my ID changed. It took quite a looooong while. Especially since everyone said it is super fast (>_<) But since this is the last month of the replacement of SmartIDs, they shifted back to the immigration office so the queue's longer than usual I think. Anyhow, we still had that done and went around Wanchai in search for food.
たべもの!!
Just go into any place that sells food and you'll get wanton noodles better than any where in singapore. On the most right is deep fried fish skin which I so love and then the noodles in the middle and a bottle of cream soda on the left. Why don't we have cream soda in singapore anymore??? Boo.
Then we went shopping!!!
I got a grey knitted dress to go with a long sleeve white turtle neck top. Which so match the knee length boots I got that evening. I LOVE LOVE LOVE boots. They are sooo pretty!!!! And I got a bottle of anna sui's dolly girl on the beach at an unbelievably low price. Also bought this CHO KAWAII pair of socks, which are meant to be worn at home as slippers. It looks like a pair of strawberries or red peppers. Bright red with green trims and yellow buttons. IT IS SO CUTE. I wore it for sleep cos it was just tooo freezing cold to sleep bare foot.

4th March (Sun)
Went to Chaiwan to pay respects to grandma and grandpa. After that, we headed down to Taikoo to shop some more at jusco. Didn't buy much, just some pouches. I am addicted to pouches. And we shopped for groceries for our steamboat dinner at the supermarket.
The steamboat was soooooooo DELICIOUSSSS!!! We were all super stuffed. Good beef, good vege, good lemon tea, good everything!! We were sooo full that we didn't eat tang yuan even though it's the 15th of the first month in the lunar calendar.

5th March (Mon)
Major shopping day!!!! We shopped THE WHOLE DAY in Mongkok.
First was our specs which were ready in just one single hour and were super cheap. Then shop non stop in Argyle centre. This is da best place to shop in MK. Everything in one building away from the sun and rain.

Proud results from MK:
- 5? tees
- 1 sweater
- 2 big beige bags
- 1 long sleeve shirt
- 3 pairs of shoes
- Non-no magazine
- 1 pair of green ribbon earrings
- Long socks and leggings
- 1 brown belt
- 1 umbrella (cos it was raining)

Had dinner at Cafe de coral. A french couple sat with us. The guy was so unhappy with his steak. Something which even sis wouldn't like cos most of hk's steaks are marinated in such a way that the meat loses its original texture. But the french are known to be picky about food ain't it?

Half eaten apple bottle!!! Kawaii ne!~ We managed to catch the last day of this promotion in 7-11 by chance. Sis got one for gorilla but it broke in the luggage.
Although I was in hk I didn't forget hana kimi of course. Watched it first thing in the morning on youtube. But it was disappointing. BLEH.

6th March (Tue)
I forgot what did we do. We went looking for dad's gore-tex jacket around central I think. Then we had dinner at Chifu. My relatives' majong skills are SO POWERFUL. They seem to play without even thinking and they win BIG!!!
The steamboat dinner was sooooooo scrumptious. 3rd uncle is the best cook ever!!! And that beancurd sheet and gingko nut dessert was heavenly~~ (^3^)
Cousin Ting is seriously a disappointment though. He became soooooo super beng and ugly. Where has our handsome cousin gone???? (T_T) And what does he do after dinner? Play majong with friends in those majong houses in MK (-__-)" Not to mention his receding hairline and gross cologne. For goodness sake he's only 23 (o_O)

7th March (Wed)
Went all the way to Fanling to visit popo. Then back down to MK and shopped some more. hahaha~ Bought some tees, leggings etc... Ate those lovely roadside snacks. And soon it was night so we headed back to sheungwan and bought pizza hut takeaway for dinner. Eating at home is still the best. Sit any old how, watch tv and drink cream soda!!!

8th March (Thu)
We wanted to go to the HK film archive exhibitions in Sai Wan Ho. But no luck, it's closed on thursdays.
かわいいね???
We were waiting for the bus to Central and saw her! Kawaiii!!!!

We took the ferry down to Tsim Sha Tsui. This is the new pier. It's actually quite nice. Although it lost that historic value. Met Uncle Fung at Tsim Sha Tsui to go to Whampoa to visit dad's aunts. They are such funny and nice people. Sis fell in love with granduncle. LOL!

9th March (Fri)
MK once again!!!
This time is for lunch with Uncle Fung at OneSushi. Food is soooooo good there. Sashimi rocks! And that whole crab leg sushi. Oishiiii!!!!

The logo for OneSushi is so cute!!!

We wanted to catch a movie but Protege wasn't showing at that cinema in Central. So too bad. Sis and I then took the tram down to Causeway Bay to look for dad's jacket in Sogo. And then was to Wa Fu for dinner with yi po. I love eating at her place too!!! She cooks really good food too~~ And great soup!!!

10th March (Sat)
Last day....
Finally decided to buy dad's jacket and did some last minute shopping for lao po bing in sogo. Then we met winnie and had lunch at the Italian Tomato cafe.

We didn't eat everything ok?!!!! This tableful of food was shared among both of us, winnie and sumsum ok!!! We are not gluttons!! hahah~
The cakes were delicious and the pasta was good too~~ Sis was so satisfied with this meal.
We then went back home to pack. And at the last minute, as in VERY last minute at 5pm when we were supposed to be at the airport by 6.15pm for check in. Winnie realised that the shop opposite our house was finally open. So three of us rushed over to check it out. And guess what??!! I managed to get something! LOL! Got a nice cotton dress at HK$30. Winnie bought it for me. LOVE LOVE!!
After that was off to the airport and check in and so on and so forth.

So now I'm back!!!
I took forever to type this.
It's actually 12.59am of 12th March already.
