Hongkong part II. The second day, was Disneyland till 2pm. Took the first bus to our desired destination. It was freaking 4.5 degrees, and I had only 3 layers of clothes on. And that was freaking no enough for me! The moment I stepped out of the hotel to walk to the bus stop, my mouth was chattering, body stiffened, body shaking.

What made the whole situation worse? The god damn wind -.-





The tour guide told us the 2 days we spent at Hongkong were the coldest compared to previous year's temperature. Lucky us. It was like paying to receive torture - coldness. Seriously lah, the sudden change in temperature caught us off guard. As my family only brought clothing enough to keep us warm at the range of 10-20 degrees.


Why did we did that? Follow the travel plans lorh! Should be more ample prepared the next time we go to a winter climate country.


Couldn't tahan the coldness, it was literally driving us mad I tell you. Because as the cold wind blows, the more we ranted on why we didn't bring more clothes, why the wind had to keep blowing.




Settled down for some lunch at a restaurant, and it felt so so much better. The tea warmed us up, and we had the most delicious food ever!!! Everything we had at Hongkong tastes better than Singapore. Eh Singapore chefs really need to do something about their culinary skills! If they can learn some skills from Hongkong chefs and open a restaurant in Singapore, the entire Sg population will fly there man!










The sun came out, like finally after we had our lunch. Went for some sight-seeing. Then it was 4D time! Watched festival of the lion king and that was about it, rushed back to Hollywood hotel to meet up with the others.








Went to Madams Tussad (a wax museum) to take pictures with some celebrities. Supposedly my sister wanted to go to the haunted mansion, but just looking at the video trailer haunted me! It had real people scaring you, can you imagine that kind of horror I have to take?! I old already lah okay I admit ):







Current status :

Still alive, yes, still kicking. Malaysia relatives have left our place, a relief. After a long 5 days of visit to Singapore, they left. I've had enough entertaining them, sniffing at their butts to wherever they went.

Went to universal studios - fucking disaster -.- 4 attraction places, and we only ventured two, Because we qeued 2h30mins for a stupid mutha fucking ride!!! To make things worst, the ride we qeued up for suddenly broke down. Like piss me off y'know. Okay whatever, this is really spoiling my mood.

Going for countdown tomorrow. And after that I will be restricted at home, no more outings! Have to prepare for school already.

And to say that life is hectic currently would be an understatement. Came back from my 5days 4night Hongkong trip - it just wasn't enough. The last day at the airport, I was so reluctant to bid farewell, so hesitant to leave the paradise which I doubt I'll ever step in again until the next decade. The time spent there can't be described here, in such short paragraphs. Its just pure awesomeness.




However, there was the other side of up, disappointments of course. A rough summary on the first day. After 3 hours of flight, we reached Hongkong at around 3pm, got everything ready and headed to Hollywood hotel. To our dismay, it rained. Rained for the entire night -'- Got all our moods down literally. Checked into our hotel and took a bus to Disneyland, could barely do anything there! Only visited some souvenir shops, took some pictures, had our dinner and left.

That was how pathetic day 1 went, seriously. Got back to the hotel to explore, and its all mickey here mickey there. Designs werent as unique as I imagined it to be. Well that was just the first day.










Alright, time for an more up to date status of me. Spent the entire week catching up with my loved ones, tuition all night and day, and packing my room. Catching up with my mates was good, shall elaborate another time. Tuition was inevitable, all thanks to yours truly doing so badly in his end of year examinations. As for packing my room, it was an annual affair, for me only.






I can really flick my hair and commend myself for being the only family member in the household for clearing my room every year without fail. The neat and tidy type, the one who can't stand papers flying everywhere - now that's me. It went pretty well I guess, it took me 3 whole days to clear everything, put things back up!






Now? Currently awaiting for the arrival of my malaysia relatives, who are taking a 11.30pm bus from Kuantan to Singapore. Will be expecting and entertaining them for the next few days. Gosh, its play time again. Intending to head over to Universal studio to try out the rides since both sister and I haven't went there before. But the entrance fee is freaking 60bucks+ ! Really cost a bomb lah. Since we're Singaporeans, have to go at least once right!



Alright this shall be it, going to be rather busy the next few days. Bye!

Seriously don't have the feel to blog. Pretty much occupied to do anything now. Its just tuition, homework, computer for the past few days - typical mundane. At long last, Hongkong trip is tomorrow! Booyah, I am getting all my deals, and best of all a polaroid! Managed to cajole my parents into it.

Second thing is that, my friend willingly lent me his dslr! That's awesome x2. Imagine all the quality pictures, professionalism I can show over there :P And once again, kudos to me being able to persuade my friend! Alright, enough of the flattery.

Flight tomorrow - 10am, have to wake up as early as 5am to prepare everything! Sorry but that's not me, it's my mum's instructions! That's her - early in everything. For the updated generation, its - better late than never. True enough? Definitely. For those who are wondering, it's a 5days trip, hence be back on sunday.

Good news number one is done here. Now next up is that my cousins from malaysia are coming over to celebrate christmas! That would be a bomb, because they keep us pretty much 24/7 entertained. My mum who usually sleeps at 10am everyday without fail can stay till 2-3am just to accompany them! It's really fun and play time if they come over.

Have got to run now, turning in early tonight for a long day tomorrow! Hongkong here I come :D
