what a big one!

so i had a quiet biggish weekend. it was Halloween, and normally its drinks at home and some party where we sometimes or some of us dress up. this time around, i was too tired from work (Halloween in HK is very diff if you work in the cake and party store, compared to working in a restaurant.. i was gone!)

so i just had dinner with the cuzzies and some friends at SML, this very very funky concept store in Causeway Bay. i like it! you can order ANY dish in the menu in 3 sizes, S, M and L. is that smart or what? and drinks too.. heh. but their drinks could use abit more work.. not super fantastic..

best food: prawn and truffle toast, sea urchin linguine, ceasar salad, panfried cod, oxtail rissotto and best of all, the pistachion gelato with candied nuts.. oh man! it was good!

you don’t realize how fast time flies. i have been in HK for nearly 6 months now. I KNOW. but anyways, this is a shallow post to remind myself in 2 years.. what i thought was.. OMW HOT! and im also WAITING impatiently for the new episodes of:

• Gossip Girl Season 3 ( LOL )
• Greek Season 3 (man oh man!! CAPPPPPPPIE!)
• The Vampire Diaries (i have this thing.. sigh)
• 90210
• Melrose Place
• Big Bang Theory

yes i know.. my life does should not revolve around TV shows.. but hello! its entertaining, i don’t need to make small talk.. and yes. im sad! but i LOVE IT!! absolutely.. LOVE IT! so ive been watching this new show.. actually its not new. i saw a couple of episodes beginning of this year.. and i was hooked and then i kinda got into other things. but im BACKKKK!!

GREEK is AWESOME! the cuz thinks its lame.. but hello! its simply.. easy on the mind, laugh out loud and just plain funny! sorority life at its worst (and best) who doesn’t love that? plus the hot guys.. sigh (yes im shallow, we have already established that!) and i loveeeeeeee my teen drama’s slash high school dramas slash mindless TV shows! L-U-V!! i have 3 MAIN reasons for watching these shows.. HEHE

.

.

.

.

reason 1:

sighhhhh (Cappie of GREEK)

.

.

reason 2:

double SIGH! (Damon of Vampire Diaries)

.

.

.

ok.. back to reality! kwinny came and went, we had an AWESOME time. i actually ventured into mongkok.. which is.. urgh.. kowloon side.. HAHAHA.. obviously im of the HK island persuasion! she even went to SSP (Sham Shui Po) to pick up beads and stuff.. that has to be super record!

who’s next to visit?

.

.

p/s work is.. madness.. seriously.. madness! but you know what? i LOVE it. i love the stress, i love the rush, i love the speed.. its something that ive always wanted to do i think!

pp/s i need a break.. AGAIN!

p/s yes yes, im lame. i know

pp/s also means.. NA NA NA NA NAAAA!! i got my own EDWARDDDD!

in dire need

i miss my books. was just thinking the other day.. i need to find a second hand book store in HK. im goinjg crazy PLUS, i aint spending HKD80 on a book! it may seem the same price, but standard of living.. no way!

ok maybe i’ll splurge this weekend HAHAHA

just a quick note to say:

disappointment in people at the moment, you know that stabbing someone in their back is totally unnecessary and hurtful. it just shows, doesn’t matter how old you are, it boils down to what you are, your actions have spoken volumes!

ALSO

i thought that you being older, more mature (apparently not) meant that you would be able to handle this as an adult. im guessing you are just who you really are, pathetic, immature and selfish. wanting the downfall of someone who was just listening and trying to lead. it makes me sad, you are breaking everyone up, on purpose.

i hope you are able to explain that to everyone, in person, if you have the guts, instead of skulking around, like a vermin!

p/s hotpot this weekend? YEA!

my ‘high’ is over.. crash boom and bang

was the first thought as i landed in HK airport. my little break is over. im ‘home’ (relatively true) and back to work the very next day. and of course, its because its me, i get in trouble with the things i have in my luggage.. like 5kg worth of IKAN BILLIS!! the fact that i kept repeating myself to the immigration officers, is pointless. sigh. after 20 minutes of explaining, i get to FINALLY head for the train.

had quick dessert at 9.45pm (BEST in HK man!) with the boss’s.. (yes, they are relentless.. hehe..) im finally getting to go home. it was soooo good to be back in my little studio. dont get me wrong, i loveddd the holiday, but i hate traveling, especially when its all about wait wait wait and lining up. im so impatient (i blame that on my 4 month HK experience.. HAHA)

sooo.. it was relaxing, it was educational, it was inspiring and it was home. im glad i spent the night in KL as well, cos that was just plain fun. i needed that. i needed to see that Josh is whole again. and that he has the support system. and i needed to see Chrissy’s gigantic ring i miss you guys already!

Popiah: Handsome Court, Jalan Nanas, Kuching

Kolo Mee: forgot the name, somehwere in Jalan Central Barat

Roti Canai: some mamak in Jalan Ampang, KL

Score: 9/10 (need i say more??)

.

.

the BEST popiah in town. SERIOUSLY! slurp!

2 seconds later.. all gone.. HAHAHAHA

staple diet of any person returning to kuching and dont forget the drink..

KL’s staple diet after a wrenching pitcher of long island ice tea at a crowded club

my super dooper partner in crime.. who also made sure i got back to the hotel in one piece as Josh MIA’ed on us

.

.

but lets go back to the beginning.. how it ALLLL started

what was supposed to be a quiet catch up dinner, just me and Josh (HAH! ya right) turned into a full fledge all out party! dont you love KL sometimes?

Dinner: The C Club, Pavilion (really nice place.. seriously impressive)

Drinks: The C Club, Pavillion (beers, beers and more beers)

AFTER DRINKS: ZOUK (Jalan Ampang, KL) and was it MAMBO VIP room? i forgot. it became a blur after a while and after half a pitcher

Score: 8/10 (you’ll be dumb to not try something AT LEAST ONCE!!)

.

.

the drinks that started it all.. the Long Island Ice Tea.. man

the main hooligans la.. minus one. eve was somewhere around..

there we go.. the ugly face us… and chrissy the photog.. as she WILL not make an ugly face..

no comment

my fav picture of the night

.

.

miss you dunggus already! my sunglasses traveled ALL the way on the plane with me. that’s how good the night was

p/s i actually had work to do in KL, which i did before going out that night. PHEW!

pp/s maybe once in a while, a loud noisy club is what you need to put things into perspective..
