just got back from HONGKONG TEMPLE TRIP and i'm exhausted (says the girl who slept at 215 and been up since 8 and still refusing to sleep. genius eh?).
ok it was definitely a good and worthwhile trip.
day 1
checked in at patron housing and spent the rest of the day at Cheung Chau island. it was super fun, and super tiring. imagine walking steep slopes that go up and down and up and down and up and down and phew! ooh but i can proudly say i've gone through a real cave :DDD ok halt, it was more like this super narrow passage that was pitch black (we used 1 handphone and camera flashes to navigate). but it was still called a cave. hee exciting!
day2
started off with temple work and went back and sleeeeept. hee then walked almost the whole of frickin Mongkok (with the "adoptive" family)just looking for 1 cheecheongfan stall. oo-er. but at least i got my sneakers muahahahah. then reached Tsim Sha Tsui 45min early and went to look for a place to eat. yum my Lasagne Deluxe from The Spaghetti House was fabulousy cheesy. but oh dear went to the Symphony of Lights show thingy by ourselves and we just missed it! oh well not as if it was entirely that spectacular (if i remember correctly).
day3
temple work in the morning again. then went off with the youth to Mongkok once again. walked and walked and ate lunch at the first food stall we came across. gah! we so should have walked further on for more acceptable food. boo my beef in my beef noodles was very fatty, cheryl's rice dumpling had no meat, trent's 5 beef types noddle (???) was like, errrrrrr. one beef component looked like the villi. HAHAHA. went to eat my sorely craved after mango dessert, then met the rest at Prince Edward after that and trained to uh, hm, dang can't remember. anyway, we arrived at the citygate outlets, and went around (window)shopping. ok right things there may be cheaper, but they're still not cheap. a big difference there man.
day4
got jerked awake by noobcake and thaddus at 955, even i though i specifically said 10, and just sat there trying to wake up, until noobcake came in again, threatening to pour water on me. ngah! ok temple work again after that, then lunch at some university's canteen. wah their staff canteen (just beside it) looks super posh k. it looks like a friggin restaurant please. and they have a bank outside the canteens too! now how cool is that man. ok took the coach to the bbq place. hyrum's cousin is 5 and is very cute :) ok right when we first reached there we were like, errrr. how in the world are we supposed to occupy ourselves for 2hrs before bbq?! i mean the place seriously looked like there was nothing to do. but SOMEHOW, i got a good workout! what with riding bikes (that were lousy and those that the workers there used were like, so obviously better pfft), playing slides with seth and joel and volleyball with nicole (the star player! and she's only p1 man), cheryl, thaddus, mark and onson.
[i digress. i can't help but see what my cousin is watching now, and it's this hongkong show and currently the scene is about this pair of colleagues who are in S'pore and they went out to see the sights. and the first thing they showed was the Merlion. wah ultimate propoganda lah please]
bbq after that was pretty good. had a good long think about,,, stuff. i can't believe noobcake fell for the ol' i-look-so-sad-but-actually-i'm-really-alright look. do i really look sad when i don't smile?! oh well thank goodness for nicole who came up just at the right moment, asking if i wanted to play ball.
day5
temple work again :) was feeling super starved and woke noobcake up to please bring me to Festival Walk to eat. hurray for Ben&Jerry's as a dessert. went to Distribution Center after that. ngah had to buy garments for dad, and poof! there went my very last $100 note. so i couldn't buy #1 yw cd that looked awesome #2 this SUPER-DUPER-UBER-FANTABULOUS-SCREAM-WORTHY HUGE SPONGEBOB CUBE THING WITH DIFFERENT FACES PRINTED ON EACH SIDE #3 this SUPER-DUPER-UBER-CUTE SPONGEBOB pencil case that came in the shape of his briefs HAHAHA. #4 other SUPER-DUPER-FABU spongebob pencil cases. ngah! >:( ok then headed to Sham Shui Po to look for Thaddus' psp. oh my gosh we were in Golden Computer Arcade (or something like that) and wordy. one part would all be selling handphones, and at the next turn you'd see psps everywhere. oo-er. walked around after that looking for dinner.
haha stopped outside a snake soup store and i was like "hey! snake soup! my father gave me an address!" and i took it out and whoo! it was precisely the store! nice. so after snake soup (yum! seriously man.), finally went to eat dinner. meh hongkong shows are so much better in the original dialect. all those dubbed shows always use back the same voice! pfffft.
day6 aka last day :'(
temple work for the last time this year. snifffff. ah well noobcake was supposed to wake me up at 10. hah! in the end sam and i had to go around waking all of them up. finished packing up, and left for lunch at FW. haha yay went to Mongkok for the very last time, and rushed to look for the pair of flats that i couldn't stop thinking about. boo didn't have my size and had to change to heels. rushed back to patron housing thinking dang we're slightly late, and realised we're even earlier than the Lims! ok right bus-ed to airport and checked in, entertained myself on the travellator (i was lonely), ate dinner and muahahah. BOUGHT KRISPY KREMES. nyeh nyeh to those who haven't tried. it's ultimate soft and delicious. pwns donut factory anytime. whoo! boarded the plane and as it began to take off, i started feeling terribly sad. cos i don't want to leave hongkong!!! i love their wanton noodles, super cool weather, shopping and food, temple, etc.
but i must say, the view at night from a plane is beautiful.
touched down at midnight. sis dorothy came and drove me to my aunt's place. even sis doreen was impressed with the location. "wah, Margoliouth. that's the bungalow area you know!" teehee. ok i better sleep now. it's mon and i still plan to jog and do hw (finally) and use comp and watch tv. ngah i'm a busy girl.
