So here i am in hk!

I feel like its been a super long journey just getting here..had to get to heathrow, then after arriving in hk, i had to take the airport express to hongkong and then..waited 1 freaking hour just to get a cab. So tired. It's typhoon season and it has been pouring non-stop all day. Me, no umbrella, can't speak cantonese==jialat.

Hk feels quite complicated. Its kinda different from what i remembered..maybe coz of the rain and my heavy luggages. -_-. Seriously need to pick up cantonese otherwise i can't get around as easily. Everyone just assumes i can speak canto just coz i look chinese :(. And if i speak mandarin, they look at me like i am da lu ren. :( :(. So then i switch to english, and i feel like a banana. :( Die die must learn canto! But other than that...i'm loving hk! Everything is so damn cheap compared to london. And the food variety is awesome..love it.

My place here is really nice too. Very cosy, just nice for one or two ppl. Today after dinner, i bought an umbrella from watsons and walked from wanchai to central and up all the steep stairs to midlevels back. It took me about 45mins strolling but it was somehow quite relaxing walking like that in the rain, getting my shoes soaked, and just taking in all the bright lights and loud clash of noises and smells, and also discovering little foodie hideaways.

Now its time to make myself at home here, make the best out of every opportunity i get! And do what i do best..work hard, play hard..and eat and shop and eat and shop and eat and shop!

Changed my blogskin coz i feel that the old one doesn't quite reflect me anymore.
