Live It Love It - Hong Kong Autumn 2008




Went there for a week with my mom....walang ganun pics ng mom ko kasi ayaw niya palagay sa Multiply mga pictures niya....haha....Ayun....We stayed in the house of my mom's friend's friend. Long story kung paano kami napunta dun....haha....di ko rin ganung naintindihan eh....haha....

Day 1- Arrival....gabi na so tulog na....

Day 2: The Peak....andun na yung Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum....after that we went to Tsim Sha Tsui via ferry....I bought my Ramayana series DVD in Chungking Mansion....haha....16 volumes....super bigat....haha....I also went to Tom Lee to buy my Josh Groban piano book....haha....dumaan na rin ako sa Hindu Temple doon....hehe....

Day 3: Disneyland....whole day na kami there....haha....galit na ako sa HK Disneyland kasi wala akong nakitang bakas ni Heimlich (Heimlich is the obese caterpillar sa A Bug's Life....)....He's my currently favorite cartoon character....haha....BTW....Nagkita kami ni Judea sa Disneyland....apparently may apartment pala sila dun sa HK....haha....She's my seatmate dati sa Filipino nung summer sa Ateneo....haha....later that day, nagkita kami ni Sharlene Dizon and Auntie Susan....goodness....sinusundan ako ng mga people I know....hahahaha!!!! Joke....Dumaan din pala kami sa may pier nung gabi to watch the Symphony of Lights....haha....

Day 4: Ocean Park....Ayun....plenty of fishies there....haha....then after that we went to North Point to meet my mom's cousin, tapos nagshop na rin kami....haha....

Day 5: Ngong Ping 360....went to the Chinese-style village....then went to the Po Lin monastery to see the big Buddha....haha....After Ngong Ping, we went to the nearby Citygate Outlet and walked around....haha....

Day 6: We first visited the Khalsa Dewan Sikh Temple (HK Branch)....Then random shopping....haha....we ended up in the Temple Street Night Market....dun ako namili ng super daming things....haha....

Day 7: Mag-isa ako umuwi, naiwan mom ko dun (extended siya 1 more week....haha....I have to enlist for my sched pa so I had to go back....may internet nga dun sa HK pero just in case magkatopak ang site like nung summer, at least matatawagan ko agad ang Ateneo pag nasa Pinas ako....haha....) I rode in the business class....so I was able to enjoy the business lounge sa airport....haha....Since Boeing 747 ang sinakyan kong plane, I was able to sit upstairs....haha....business class nga....haha....oh well....

Grabe talaga....it was a fun experience....except for the occasional complain ni mom na pagod na siya....kasi mas magaling akong maglakad kesa sa kanya....haha....pero buti na rin na mas maaga akong umuwi....kung hindi baka naubos pera namin dun sa kakabili ng things....hahahaha....Aside from that....it was also hard kasi I had to code switch in English, Mandarin, Cantonese (I know a little), Fukien (rarely ko nagamit kasi mostly Cantonese nga mga tao dun....haha), Tagalog (for the Pinoys na nakausap namin at napagtanungan ng daan kung nawawala kami....haha....sa sobrang daming Pinoys parang di rin kami umalis ng Pinas....haha....) and Hindi (for the many Indians there....kahit na marunong silang magEnglish....haha....)....ayun....I hope I could go back there again....kasi nice naman siya....ayun....hahahaha....AND....galit pa rin ako sa HK Disneyland kasi walang anything Heimlich dun....haha....ni wala ngang bakas ng A Bug's Life dun eh....haha....
