Finally back from Hong Kong. Only to be greeted with this lump of Geog and Maclaurin's Series staring at me. Still got alot of work to finish and lots of things to worry about 2008. I am SOOOOO not looking forward to this.
Anyway, I just can't express how much I miss all the 大家乐s and the Dim Sums and the pollution and the Shopping and the 废材s and the KCRs and the PK仔s.....Did'nt go to Disneyland as promised by the few buggers(ChunYin, YouRong,YatHin and Karl) who dragged me to do something every Hong Konger has a profession in. Shopping.
And quite surprisingly, it was only until then did I realize that shopping is not a "Girls Excusive" activity. Cuz I observed that the people tended to group themselves into "Girls only" Or "Guys Only" and the occasional "One Guy Many Girls" configuration.
We went to Mong Kok to Jalan and look around. Bought some of the "gifts" that I promised the MJ clique and some books, while the most PK of the group(ChunYin=PK仔) bought some...err....I duno...stuff that says:废材联盟.
Langham Place:Mong Kok. Probably the best place anywhere in the world to shop. 悲情城市:天水圍
Happened to have the opportunity to visit the "City of Sorrows" which is indeeed, quite...bad. The place really has some form of resemblence to Punggol. the only difference is that: In Punggol, the kids(Not all ofcourse!) smoke. Here, they take drugs and get their entire lives screwed up.
The common emo-er.
The very deserted Light Rail Station.
But fear not! There's hope!The government is investing more on social welfare to the zone and hopefully the lives of people here will improve.=)
More Snippets:
Land for Sale VS Space for Rent
The picture on the left is the former Wong Chuk Hang Estate that is slated for demolision to make way for the South Island MTR line.
The picture on the left is none other than 2IFC, the building where someone jumped off in the Holleywood movie, Tomb Raider.
Aji Ichiban. the best place to get sweets and candy at an affordable price. Must go if you're doing CNY-shoppin.
The favourite hobby of the Hong Kong and Singapore goverments. the Hong Kong government likes to dump trash into Victoria harbour to kill fish and build an oversized expressway when they could have used ERP. Singapore goverment does that for the sake of blocking Malaysia's ports(or so Mahatir claimed...).
The last remaining old-styled Star ferry Pier @ Tsim Sa TsuiSleepers on the MTR.
Government made graffiti. the chinese words say: North Point is my Home. (North Point is a plac in Hong Kong...like DUH)
Welcome to my place in Hong Kong. I used to stay in the unit above the one with flowers. It's currently rented to someone else.
This estate is more than 15 years old. Quit well maintained after all those years.
In the "valley" of skyscrapers at Central.
The news-stand. You get alot of "clean publications" such as MingPao dialy as well as some..err..."dirty publications' such as the weekly *******.....you get the picture...
New ice-cream provider if Perkafe opened an outlet in Hong Kong. their ice-cream is better than Ice-cream Gallery and it's slightly cheaper. HK$16 for a 100g scoop.
Probably one of the most crowded Macs in town. It's not yet tea-time and just look at the queue!
Chek Lap Kok's T2. Hong Kong's answer to the "Budget terminal". Most airlines that use this terminal are either budget carriers or are LPG full service airlines.
After the hols....
Christmas is just days away....and I'm glad I bought everything I needed to give. Though I'm not very glad at my progress with my mugging....
Anyway, Thankyou Pau for that very nice card!XD
