started off the morning in a seedy old run down resteraunt in mong kok, eating THE BEST wontons ever. sat by myself and everything! felt like a real local... NOT. bet they were talking to me, i didnt even have my phone to keep me occupied, & couldnt even read the things on the wall because it was all in freaking chinese! lol so i just sat there watching the lady making the wontons, so fast!!!
after that, did a bit of shopping at the local markets and then headed via bus to Harbourside, where i purchased some MAC makeup for Cassie & Steph. thinking about going back there tomorrow to do a bit more damage... so cheap here!! like half price!!
once that was done we hopped on a famous 'star ferry' to central, where from there we caught a bus to stanley markets... where nearly all the 7s teams were shopping!! copped myself a few souvenirs for you guys aaaand... a jimmy choo bag for myself <3 woot woot.
after that went to HK TIMES SQUARE, where we ate dinner. i was craving those little japanese octopus balls hardout so imagine my deeelight! (hamish and andy lol) when i saw it on the menu! quite nice i must say. then went to the markets where i got some nice and plain silver studs for 50c a pair lol. shoulda stocked up damn. wish i had bought a few more souvenirs too but pretty sure there will be more opportunities for that.
those wet look tights are here everywhere as well, better get myself a pair just so that i have one in my wardrobe, instead of borrowing cassie's every time i wanna wear them lol.
my dad is getting my contacts tomorrow, heaps cheeeeap. as for myself i'm going shopping with cammy, we're going to sneaker street. seen a MEAN pair of purple hi-top vans yesterday for like $500HK which equates to about $70AUD oodamn!! definately adding a bit of purple to my collection. didnt think i'd come back with many sneakers but idk if i'll be able to resist!!
my porpor is soooo cute. she nearly got run over yesterday :O shame on my mother for running across the road thinking that my porpor would be able to run just as fast. stupid woman. the cars/trucks/buses here must have immac breaks because i swear the truck was like 5m away going at like fckn 70km/hr which is fast for an alley!! so now all the 7 grandkids dont let porpor leave our sight and we all grab onto her when we cross the road lol! today was colder than usual wish i had taken a photo of her in her 493284093 jackets and beanie, covered with her hood! so cute <3
funny thing that made me smile today: was reading the description of tigers in chinese horoscope... "always changing their mind but very strong willed, happiest with dragons, many go on to become chefs (and other professions)". remind you of someone? well it sure reminded me of my ex boyfriend. and as for me (dragon): sometimes over confident, gives good advice, professions: doctors, dentist, teacher..." but the big one... "very independant. usually stays single." DUDE. lol killed my liiiiiiiiiiife! jokes. but really!!
lol. anyways. i got a list of wishlists from my friends :) gna have lots of fun going shopping for them tomorrow. so far we've only really been to markets, apart from MAC store. so i wanna go and take my two cousins to some department stores, those clothes are a little less honky and a bit more professional/classy. we'll see what we can get. really need a new work skirt, even though it's gna be winter soon... :S
anyways real tired atm. gotta wake up early to meet cammy so better get some rest.
miss you all.
