Thursday, November 29, 2007

hello people.
so,i just got back from holiday.
it was a super fun one.
i watched HSM 2 in the plane.
we reached Hong Kong at 2.45 p.m.
it was cold.
like highest was 22 degrees celcius.
lowest was 13 degrees celcius.
check in hotel first.
we stayed at metropark hotel,mongkok.
then,we walked around the hotel.
then,we went to eat at Shadowman Cyber Cafe.
halal eh.(:
then,went to walk around there.
a lot of shops.
like adidas,bossini and giordano.
all the clothes are like super nice.
i wish i could buy all of them luhh.
soon,we took the MTR
to this place called Causeway Bay.
the shopping centre there is like full of cute
baby clothes.
and so,there is this special lighting
everyday at 8 p.m there.
and the lighting is so colourful
and superb.(:
then,we went to the Ladies' Market.
the market is super big.
i bought a t-shirt.
then,we went back to the hotel around 11.00.
and the people in Hong Kong are super nice.
when they see you looking at a map,
some will go up to you and help you.
like so kind seyh.(:
than the next day,
we went to Disneyland.
took a lot a lot of pictures.
i was being a little kid.
hehe.
take pictures with mickey mouse,minnie mouse,buzz lightyear,winnie the pooh
and more more more.
like the disney characters all so cute.
so,went to eat after going back from Disneyland.
and yeah,the train to Disneyland is super nice and decorated.
after that,went to take bus to
the tram station to go to Victoria Peak.
actually,we can also
take the straight bus uhh.
but,it's like the bus is going through a winding
route.
and you are seating on a double-deckered
bus.
and,it's not covered.
so,we took the tram.
then,reached The Peak.
walked around at the shopping centre.
then,went to the sky tower to enjoy the view.
and,it was freezing cold.
haa.
serves me right.
i didn't bring my jacket.
then,my mother went to ask this photographer
at The Peak there if
Jackie Chan actually lives there.
and,the person said no.
heh.
cuz i heard rumours that he lives there.
then,it was late.
the waiting time to take the tram was
very late.
so,we went to Mongkok for a while.
walked around there.
as usual,many shops.
and the shopping centres there
close like at 12.00.
extremely late.
and u can still see many people at the streets at 11.00p.m.
as if like it's only 6.00 p.m.
and i went on weekdays.
if weekends,the people
will be much more.
and in the mrt stations which they call
MTR,people nvr stop walking.
it's like people are like ants there.
haha.
the next day,
went to Shenzhen.
we were crossing the border
between China and Hong Kong.
i could say that day was a shopping day luhh.
we spent like all day shopping there.
bought jeans.
t-shirts.
and more stuffs.
then,went back to Hong Kong.
then,went to Ocean Park the next day.
it's located on two mountains.
all of us took the Raging River ride first.
then,my mum was like
is there no seatbelt.
haa.
then,i was panicking.
luckily,we didn't drown or what.
and got wet obviously.
but it was fun.
then,my brother and father
went to take the roller-coasters.
as usual,i didn't.
i'm a scaredy cat.
and u know,
during roller-coaster rides,
they always take candid photos of us
at the point where the roller-coaster is going to
make a drop or what.
and my brother's face looks funny in the picture.
oh well.
we also saw sharks,fishes and seals.
they are endangered,you know.
when we eat shark fin's soup,
we actually only take the fins of the shark
and throw the body at the sea.
and the shark dies a painful death.
like,u take arms and legs from a human being.
so,i think we should not eat shark fin's soup
anymore laa.
and the Ocean Park is a
non-profitable organisation.
they built it specially to save animals.
CHEERS OCEAN PARK.
so,pretty please.
SAVE ANIMALS!
after that,we went to take the cable car.
we were going to another mountain called the Lowland.
it's the second part of Ocean Park.
we took the go-kart.
it was fun.
then,went to visit the giant panda habitat.
the pandas are super cute.
and took some other rides.
after that,
we went to Tsim Sha Tsui
to walk around and shop.
you can never finish shopping and walking
even if u spend a whole day at the same place.
it's like so big.
and there's so many shops.
i bought an adidas t-shirt.
it's original.
but,cheaper than in Singapore.
so,bought it.
then,we went to another night market.
and shopped for some souvenirs.
the next day,
was the last day.
so sad laa seyh.
so,we ate breakfast.
and continue shopping around.
then,we checked out of the hotel.
went to the airport.
ate lunch at Popeye's Chicken and Biscuits.
halal oke.
and also nice.
then,time to fly back to Singapore.
waved bye at Hong Kong.
haha.
i watched No Reservations in the plane.
then,it was time to land.
my ears was like so pain.
dunno why.
usually,
my ears won't be pain.
it hurt so much,
that i felt like crying.
then,the plane landed.
took taxi home.
reached home around 11.30.
slept at 12.00.
and it feels good to be back in Singapore.
but i'll sure miss Hong Kong.
hope to fly there again some time soon.

Signing off,
ilahh(:
