My gosh... I am getting so many rubbish comments.. weird people asking me to go see their site etc.. is there some competition going on? Like the most no of hits a site gets the bigger the price.. Does anyone knows how I can stop this?
Okies lets get back to life in HK:
Yesterday, Eddy, Sheena and myself went to Lanma Island (in case u don't know, its an outlying island of HK and was showcased in many HK drama/movies). We decided to go because on Friday, Sheena said that we should go for a hike as she is putting on wt! Initially, Eddy and me were kinda of surpised that Sheena wants to go for a hike, its not very like her to suggest that, so being the nice friends of cos we have to go... We even decided to have a picnic on the beach at Lanma island.
When we 1st got there.. the weather was pretty good, it was windy, not very sunny. Moreover, the air there is so fresh! A nice break from the city air that I breathe all the time. However, good things are not meant to last! It was barely 15 mins after we arrived, it started to rain. I do not mean the light showers, it was pouring! Initially, we seeked shelter at this food stall and we happily eating our beancurd, but soon the food stall proved to be a lousy shelter as I gotten pretty wet just sitting. My Birken were soaked and were rather mushy thus making it hard to walk.. so I wanted to get a cheap flip flop but the sad thing is... all the cheap flipflops are sooo small!!!! My feet arent that big rite? Finally, I found a shop that seems to sell bigger flipflop (and shelter from the rain) however, the shop only sells havaianas! so after trying on tons of color, I finally settled for a bluish-lavender one. Its not exactly cheap but guess I didnt have much choice then. Well, don't mind shelling out more for a good pair of flipflops that will last longer and more comfy since I am doing alot of walking in HK.
Finally, the rain subsided and we make our way to the beach but as usually, good things don't last! It started pouring again.. n there was some annoucement in muffied cantonese/mandarin/ english that sounded so serious, which we later found out what it meant. Simply "please get out of the water as its unsafe to swim in the storm". As soon as its more suitable to walk, we made our way back to the jetty area where there are many eateries suitable for us to grab a bite and take shelter as we wait for the next next ferry. We found a place known as the Bookworm cafe. It is such a warm, cosy place that I can just sit there all day and watch the world go by. The food is great but drinks are so so only. The place was so comfy that we decided to forgo the 430 ferry and wait for the next one. Anyway, in Hk there are Mid-Autumn festival is a BIG thing. Its so BIG that there will be no classes tomorrow. I love the lanterns here but its so expensive! My favourite is the butterfly one (think only Sheena and eddy knows what am I talking about). ohh.. one more thing! Sheena intro me to Maxim's almond fingers and they tasted soo good.. will buy back some for u guys back in sg! |
