After 5 mths in Bj, i'm finally back home..but only for 1 mth before i'll have to go back again. The feeling back home is really good. For the 1st time i realize tt alot of things seem to be very big. My hse and room seems to be super big and bright. And with the clean air with no one smoking, no spitting on the floor, no need to bother abt wad to eat for lunch and dinner and no worries on whether there is enough time to study for this or that...This is really the 1st break after like 1 yr...i muz really enjoy this break before i start on another busy journey.
Before i came back s'pore, i went on a trip to hk and macau with wan wan and lili for ard 1 wk. Haha...everyone says hk is a shopping heaven..but i dun think so leh. Unless u r gg for branded stuff, or else i think bj is still much more fun shopping coz of the cheaper prices(can bargain for better prices :p). But it's still a good trip to be able to 'tui fei' in another country other than bj or s'pore :p.
DAY 1 of trip
Wow..the 1st day is really exciting man. We took cab to the beijing west station and on the way there is a traffic jam at the tunnel to the station. We had to wait for quite a while before we decided to drag our bulky luggages to the station. 2nd event we encountered was that wan wan's tix was stolen. She had to run abt to find ways to 补票. 3rd event, we went to the wrong gantry and had to rush all the way down from the 2nd storey to the 1st storey to the correct immigration gantry with our big luggage. After all these, we then managed to board the train. Luckily we din miss the train coz it really left the station on time. The train wasn't as bad as i thought. Although it's quite squeezy inside, but it's still quite clean and the bed is also quite comfy. Haha...guess tt we were too tired fr the adventure, we fell asleep soon after we had our lunch. The rest of the train ride was eat then sleep then eat and sleep again. 24h isn't tt bad to go with...
Day 2
We arrived at kowloon. We took the mtr to tsim sha tsui stn and took a few min walk to our hostel--mapleleaf guesthouse. The guesthouse looks quite nicely furnished but a glance at our rooms, there is only a conclusion fr me...omg why issit so small. Haha..the room can only fit 1 queen size bad and a single bed, with no space for a cupboard at all. we had to put our luggages under the bed. the rest of the day was followed by having lunch at a cafe selling 鱼蛋面as the specialty and visiting the avenue of stars.
Day 3
We went to lantau island to visit the great buddha and then took the tram up to the peak. The view up the peak was really great. The skylines of hk is really great to look at.
Day 4
This is another day to tui fei again. We woke up quite late and ended up at causeway bay searching for dim sum in vain. We walked lanes and lanes but couldn't even see a shop selling dim sum. In the end, we decided to eat at 许留山for their fabulous mango desert. Nxt we juz walked aimlessly ard. Act the clothes we saw wasn't really tt cheap. When we see shop tt has discount we juz went in and 大扫 the clothes.
Day 5
We went macau with wan wan's parents. I personaly think that Macau is nicer than hk. As in the scenery and architecture is much more different than hk. The birdnest egg tarts tt wan wan's dad bought was really nice and smooth. However, Macau is really quite small..coz we always overshot our destination.
Day 6
This is a day of mainly eating and resting day. After searching so many days for dim sum we finally found one today. However, the food is so disappointing. It's quite normal yet expensive.
Day 7
Back Home! :)
