struggled a bit today. tried to talk it out but just made it worse. just not gonna think about it. been doin a pretty good job of it so far. just a little hiccup today. whatever.
ANYWAYS.
today my cousins came to pick me up and we headed to sneaker street. it was funny, us 5 kids wandering the streets like lost ones lol. i bought a new pair of vans <3 them purple hi-tops that i fell in love with at first sight. for some reason i got it HEAPS cheaper so it turned out to be like $60AUD bargainnn! after that cameron bought his soccer boots finally after searching for like 2 days for his size in a specific pair.
after that we went back to the appartment with the cousins etc, they were meant to get ready to go to sevens but they decided not to go today as it was just like warm up games anyway. soooo we had a feed, latham discovered this shop near their place that sells bbq pork w/ rice for like $10HK which is less than $2AUD... cheap as!! he had it for breakfast lunch and afternoon snack lol. but yerh we all had that for lunch...
after a bit of chilling playing card games & catching up on family goss (the kids know more than the pre-adults i swear!), we checked out the local mall, where we maxed out at the supermarket. imagine an asian grocer, but x4328 better!! we were in heaven, they even hav cappacinno flavoured maltesers here!!! lol.
after that headed to the markets and thats where the excitement began :) got x4 long champ bags and some presents for the girls. wanted to get moremoremore but ran out of cash on me lol. gonna go back tomorrow with my mumma :) got hectic bargaining skills now!! these bracelets were meant to be $89 each but i managed to get 5 for $100!!! thats skill right thurr :) (dont freak out, keep in mind 7HKD = 1AUD)
after spending all my monayyy, latham shouted us dinner... at maccas lol high roller. nah was good though was semi getting sick of wonton. who am i kidding no i'm not. but idk, missed my cheeseburgers & maccas coke lol.
then i got the train home all by myself. that's right... roaming the streets of HK by myself like a true local. NOT. dressed in obvious tourist clothes holding a big bag full of market goodies lol, i took the wrong exit out of the train station tryna be all clever, thought it was a short cut but no it wasn't. had to ask the popo for directions but i got home in the end :)
then i got home when my parents were eating take-out in the hotel room, and there was a bowl of wonton waiting for me :) too bad i was stuffed, we had been eating pretty much all day from food stalls on the street. at first my cousins were like eww no... but then after devouring a bag of fried squid & washing it down with a taro milk tea, they gave in. i should advertise for food LOL. get paid for eating what a laugh.
my mum was so excited to take me to the shops downstairs from my hotel and how could i resist, my mum HATES shopping. so we went, thought she was gonna show me all these things i'd like cos i gotta admit its been hard finding clothes i like here. but no she just wanted my opinion on everything she had tried on but was double minded about buying LOL. bless her.
after that i picked my porpor up from the other apartment, she went to disneyland today with the mclellans. lol how cute. and here i am. tired as, and about to conk out.
xxxxx
