Postcard From Germany

Before I continue with my Hong Kong Day 2 post, I wish to post this up first. I reached home 2 days ago with this in my room:



Yes it’s a postcard from Germany! It’s from someone whom I refer to as Bestie which in a way means best friend and yes she is indeed, a special friend. Of course it is not Irene and I kind of special but it is a kind of special friendship which I cherish very much :D

Thanks Bestie!

Hong Kong Day 1

Yoohoo yes I'm back from Hong Kong and it was great! In fact I already came back on Friday almost midnight, but couldn’t find time to write about it until now. I'm happy with my Hong Kong trip but Macau was just so-so. Luckily I only spent a night at Macau or it will be wasted.

Both Irene and I rushed to the ferry terminal right after we touched down at Macau so that we can reach the motel as soon as possible. The ferry ride was nauseating, so we didn’t enjoy it much and thank god we didn’t puke on each other. We took a cab when we reached Kowloon to the motel and although our room was really small but it was clean and tidy. I was comfortable staying there and the only thing I wanted to complain about is the tiny toilet. But it’s Hong Kong, so it’s reasonable and acceptable.



Everything went well according to my itinerary and the thing I like most about Hong Kong should be the down to earth street-like kind of feeling. We were staying at Mongkok and the street was really packed with people sprawling to every direction. The only thing that can interrupt or stop the flow should be the traffic light for pedestrian, or the boarding door of the MTR.

We were rushing here and there hoping that we could cover all the places that we wish to visit. But on the first night, we only went to Ladies’ Street and Temple Street since both places were close to our motel.



Wan Ton Mee was our dinner that night and although the noodle tasted normal, the Wan Ton was really good!



We went to Hui Lau San for dessert after that and understood why the place is so famous for its dessert.



After strolling the street a little while more, we went back to rest and called it a day :D

Tomorrow, Hong Kong!

I'm flying to Hong Kong tomorrow *happy*

Hong Kong

5 more days and I will be flying to Hong Kong!

Yes I'm going there for a vacation and it’s not a pre-planned one because it was only decided a few weeks back. I have been longing to go there for some time and since I have to clear my annual leaves this year and Irene’s birthday is approaching, so why not? Both of us really need a short getaway because we have been working our @$$ off until wee hours sometimes when the ‘situation’ needs it.

Ok the arrangements are made, hotels are booked, itinerary is planned and packing seems to be the only frustrating thing left to do. Now where can I get help?

Black and White

I seldom watch series but I've just finished Black and White, a Taiwanese series which in my opinion is the best Taiwanese series that I've ever watched. Ok maybe it is the best since I haven’t watched many but if most of the Taiwanese drama is thiiiiiiis good, then I think I'll watch them all!

What I like most is the plot which is so twisting and keeps on surprising me when more and more is unfold. It is also different from those usually draggy Taiwanese series because this one leaves no room for mushy stuff. Heard that they are doing the movie now and will be out next year and I'm wondering whether it will be as good.

Xiao Ding Dang

Yes a Xiao Ding Dang which runs on solar and will keep on nodding his head. Cute eh

A Surprise Visit On The Night Of The Mooncake Festival

It has been one week, how time flies. Think I need to spend more time recording all the interesting stuff that happens around me. Talking about interesting stuff, I wish to record this wonderful idea that I had last Saturday which was also the mooncake festival.

I worked until 3:30 am last Friday and nothing interesting on this because that wasn’t the first time. And I woke up around 8am the next morning to continue with my work hoping that I could make it before noon so that I could go back to Melaka with AR. But I couldn’t, so I fetched her to the bus station and continued with my work later after that.

Nothing interesting so far, and after I was done with all the fussy stuff, I came up with this idea to give AR a surprise visit. It was around 6 pm that time, and I planned to reach around 9pm and spend the night of the mooncake festival together. I know she wouldn’t even have the slightest thought that I will show up, and I was so dying to see the surprise look on her face.

So I drove all the way alone to Melaka and reached her place around 10pm I guess. And what a surprise, the car porch was empty and it can only mean one thing, she went out with her whole family. I called her and she said she was on the way to her relative place at Jonker Street. I had a little confidence that I could find Jonker Street since I've been there for a few times and while lying to her that I was still at KL, I drove to Jonker Street and luckily, I found it!

I called her again telling her that I was at Melaka and as expected, she didn’t believe me. In fact her whole family didn’t believe it but I couldn’t blame them because I couldn’t even believe myself either. So with a little hesitation, she walked out to Jonker Street to look for me and tada~ I was there 
