Hong Kong Day 6!


Hello! :)

I’m having bad outbreak at my back!!! Its so disgusting!! I usually have small pimples here and there on my back but now its like acne! I’m desperately trying to find good products to get rid of my back acne :( Hope it will work!
This is the last part of my HK trip :( No worries there won’t be anymore food pictures! 
It was a Friday and when we woke up, it was pouring! Thank god, it didn’t rain for the past few days! 
Gloomy morning from our hotel room.
Our flight was at 4.20pm, the bus was going to pick us up at 1.20pm and we had to check out before 12 noon so we cannot go anywhere far. We want to Yuen Long which is 2 stops away from Tsuen Wan West!
At the our hotel’s lobby :)
Yuen Long! I think its quite an old estate, the buildings are more rundown and people dress more casually compared to places like Mongkok, Central etc. Its like a countryside LOL.
We settled down at a Cha Chaan Teng! 
People always comment that my sissy looks exactly like my dad haha!
And I look my mum! LOL I THINK MY MUM IS SUPER NOT PHOTOGENIC!! This is me with zero make up. No concealer and my eye brows were not drawn, too lazyy.
I forgot what is this called.. :(
Anyway, NO MORE PICTURES OF OUR BREAKFAST!! I had sandwich with my sissy and my parents had Soup Bee Hoon. I don’t know why I never take pictures leh!!! The food was quite good and cheap lor! Every meal comes in a set so its like the combo-style yknow!
It continued to pour crazily….. we bought our Lao Po Bing and we had only 2 umbrellas. There was no shelter back to the MTR so we were stucked at an overhead bridge.
Kids look mad cute in their cutesy raincoats like this one!!
It was a wrong day to wear jeans!!!!! :( Dad & I shared an umbrella and we were walking beside the road when a taxi went passed and splashed water at my jeans.. My jeans was wet to the knee area!!! So uncomfortable!
Then the worst thing was the umbrella Dad & I shared has holes!!!! So we were pretty drenched -_- Threw that umbrella away!!! We somehow made our way back to the MTR and got back to our hotel to rest before checking out!
Our hotel room!! ^^ My check in luggage was packed to the brim and I didn’t want to flatten my Ginger Bread Man so I had it with me on board LOL.
Glass toilet!! Of course there’s curtains la.. and we didn’t get to use the bath tub.
Changed into my shorts and slippers for the flight back home because my jeans and scandals were wet from the rain!! >:(
Goodbye HK, I will miss you :(
Even though we arrived super early at the airport, the plane was left with single middle seats! I didn’t know we can actually reserve the seats online beforehand :( We were all separated!!! I had to sit beside a man and some woman and I couldn’t hug my ginger bread man to sleep, too embarrassing!!!
The dinner on board was nice! Cheese Pasta!! I watched Mission Impossible 3 Ghost Protocol to kill time~! Our flight was delayed for nearly 2 hours! It was supposed to depart at 4.20pm but we only left the airport at 6pm due to traffic congestion as what the pilot said.
OHYAH!!! WE HAD TO SIT THIS MINI BUS TO OUR PLANE and board the plane without shelter, it was still drizzling!!!!!! I thought HK International Airport don’t do things like that but maybe there were really too many planes la. Not my first time sitting these mini buses but the wind was really strong lor.
Okay that marks the end of my HK travelogue! I’m rushing off to watch RM now! Timbre tmrw to celebrate Bird Nest’s Bird day!
Goodnight!

Hong Kong Day 5!


I got myself addicted to RM again! I just watched EP 96 and its so funny la! I can’t wait to continue watching after I finish off writing this post! Today is my off day so I had a lot of time to rot at home.. I kinda miss this lifestyle but I need $$ so yeah~~

This is the last 2nd part of my travelogue! :(
On the 5th day, we didn’t know what to do other than visiting Victoria Peak in the evening. Since Victoria Peak is located near Central MTR, we went there for our breakfast!
Breakfast @ Tsim Chai Kee 沾仔记
Wan Ton Mee!! Honestly, it’s the best Wan Ton Mee I have ever eaten so far in this HK trip! The noodles is mad nice, not forgetting the Wan Ton with many prawns stuffed inside.. I WANT THIS RIGHT NOW T.T The soup was really good as well!! Even the auntie working there is nice, she kept chatting with us because we were there really early and there were not much customers!
After a fulling breakfast, we went shopping @ Central’s 4 storeys H&M!!! That’s where I really spent a lot of $$$ but it was worth it!! ^^ We got bored of Central and went to Causeway Bay!
Causeway Bay has quite a number of shopping malls with branded shops la so we basically had nothing to do there because we are no rich peoplezx. We ended up at Macs to chill and rest LOL. 
Even the Supermarket located in the shopping mall looks damn posh la.. atas place!
We got bored (again) of this place and went to Wan Chai to buy this really famous cookies at that area! Anyway, the cookies are indeed very good! Super buttery!
Along the way, mum drank this tea which she used to drink when she was young. I have no idea what is it.. 
We went back to Central and walked to the peak tram!
I tried to take a reflection of the 4 of us squeezing, trying to sit on a tiny bench but all you can see is my H&M plastic bag.
I’m happy!
Tall buildings @ Central!
We had to walk up slope to the peak tram station, very very tiring!!
Old bus tickets!
Queuing to board the tram!
Madness queue.. I don’t understand why there are sooo many people even though it was a weekday!
After forever, we were finally in the tram! I like how the tram is inclined at such a steep angle! Somehow it feels like I am on a roller coaster!!
VICTORIA PEAK!!!!! ^^
Sissy & I!
We got a Singaporean to help us take photos!
Don’t know why my mum looked so happy! WHY U SO CUTE!
Holding so many plastic bags…
I tried to take a picture of the buildings together with the plane that was ascending but I failed terribly.. (you can still spot the plane though)
When the sky gets dark.. SO PRETTY RIGHT!!!!!!!! 
I told sissy to take a picture of me… I look so noob pls!
And I decided to do it myself! See I look so happy!
With Sissy!
Took the Peak Tram again, we queued for super longggggg.
In the Peak Tram! I don’t even know what my dad is looking at LOL.
When we went back to our hotel it was about 10pm alr. I WAS SOOOOOO TIRED I COULDN’T WALK! so my family left me at the hotel lobby while they went out to some nearby places to have dinner. I had wifi to keep me accompany~!
Walking the whole day is no joke.. my feet were aching so badly! Must be the walk up slope and down slope from the Peak Tram station to the MTR! 
I got work tomorrow! Hopefully I can finish Day 6 tmrw!
Time to sleep, Goodnight!!

Finally


As much as I want to blog, I’m too tired from work :( Today is the last day of the Expo Food Show. Off day for us tmrw so I will probably have a lot of time to blog!! I ate so much during the Food Show, I think all the weight I have gained back all the weight I lost in HK! I’ll try to jog tmrw!!!!! 

Something very very epic and dramatic happened to me today but its a long long story so I’ll talk about it tmrw LOL!!
Since I’m leaving everything to tmrw, this post is quite pointless…
okay bye, goodnight! LOL.

Hong Kong Day 4!


I’m back again! :)

I spent my whole weekend with the baby! Friday, after my work at the Expo Food Show, I rushed to baby’s house. I can’t describe how happy I was to see him :’) We went shopping on Saturday! He got his sperrys but I couldn’t find the shorts I saw in HK’s H&M, in SG’s H&M :( 
Bumped into liting & chris in 313’s Zara, they couldn’t see us when we were directly opposite them! I blamed it on weijiebao’s botak head, just because he looks way too common LOL.
I got a pair of floral shorts from f21 because I was pissed I couldn’t find my shorts in H&M!! I was lucky to find my size, last pair! THE GOOD THING IS BABY PAID!!! hehe he felt bad for making me spent so much to buy clothes for him in HK which I didn’t really mind la ^^
Okay as what the title says, I’m going to continue with my travelogue!!
We planned to go Lantau Island which we did, we took MTR to Tung Chung. We took to Lai King to change to the Tung Chung Line. The train ride was quite long and it was drizzling! We were hoping the cable car will still be operating because we didn’t want to take the bus!
Breakfast @ some restaurant in our hotel! Food was so-so and quite expensive! Totally not worth the price!
Citygate outlets is a shopping mall with all the outlet stores! Nike, Adidas, Body Shop, Kate Spade, Dunhill and many other branded shops!
I’m not a camera-pro. The camera kept focusing on the raindrops on the cable car’s window.. WHY!!
20 mins cable car ride! 
Ngong Ping!
It was so hot and humid! The sun was blazing.. *refer to the picture below*
LOOK AT OUR EYES!! I couldn’t open my eyes AT ALL!! My eyes are really small alr and the sun didn’t help.. -_-
Still very bright and I managed to pose but I look shitty here!!
\
Walking towards Big Buddha!
Artificial Tree which happens to be a Wishing Tree.
Mummy & Daddy!
Yes we are getting nearer!!
Some pictures along the way, FAT FACE!!
Big Buddha!
At the top! ^^
We didn’t stay at the place for long, we prayed and left. This time we had the whole cable car to ourselves! Sissy & I wanted to sit the Crystal Cable Car, the cable car’s floor will be transparent but dad refused because we had to pay more!!! >:(
LOLL MY LEGS LOOK SO LONG AND SLIM HERE AND FAIR!!
Hong Kong International Airport in the background!
After reaching Tung Chung, we took a 40 mins bus ride to Tai O. Tai O is a fishing town, very laidback and kampong-like. 
Its quite a small town so nothing much to explore.
We had Tau Huey and watched 皆大歡喜, Virtues of Harmony II. Super funny!
We bought Ji Dan Gao, Egg Cake? LOL.
Then I saw a cute black dog and decided to take a picture of him/her sleeping.
When I tried to zoom in, the dog turned away from me!! HUMPH!!!!!
A group of cows! There was an old lady behind these cows holding a cane! NEVER SEE THIS KIND OF THING BEFOREEEE. I’m a city kid!
We came back to Tung Chung and took the MTR to Sham Shui Po, 深水埗! We were going to TIM HO WAN, 添好运点心专卖店!!!!!!!!!! ^^ The store at Sham Shui Po is like 3x bigger than the one located at Mongkok and its nearer to walk from the MTR! We didn’t have to queue when we reached there :)
Happy us! Who will not be happy eating such good dim sums!!!
FOOD PICTURES BELOW!!!! WARNING!! It will make you hungry ^^
