Don't really know what is wrong with my mood recently... Not exactly my happiest moments...
Maybe i miss zj...
Whatever it is, i hope my mood becomes better....

Anyway, on a lighter note, i baked again! haha... love to bake... even though they are not very nice...

Chocolate chip and walnut cookies!

Well, since i had nobody to give to, i ate this cookie! haha... the shape doesn't look too perfect...but, still nice....

Jellyfish Aquarium! it is really very very nice... I took alot of videos in there... Jellyfish are so fascinating and unique... really really beautiful...

This is the Japanese Bakery that sells an interesting bread that tastes like a mixture of mua-chee and bread... haha... but, since i like dough-like stuff, it actually taste quite nice....

They went to sit the viking ride in ocean park... haha...

Aren't the pandas cute???

Ocean Park filled with pandas!

JELLYBEANS!!!!

Desserts, desserts and more desserts... There is seasame paste, mango pancake.... erm... not sure about the one zj had... but, shi hui had a papaya and snow fungus dessert... haha... tastes a bit weird....

Isn't this a really cute panda van?

I saw this car in a shopping centre in HK... I like this kind of vintage cars....

Hmm... if i remember correctly, this is the space museum. but, we didn't go in...

This is a very nice fountain infront of a very nice and very expensive hotel....

This is the milk custard i had in HK...It is a new dessert i have never tried before... Soft, sweet, milky... quite yummy....

Oh well, this entry is suppose to be dated on tuesday when i had the kushinbo buffet... But, i was lazy to type... so, here goes...

On that day, i passed my advance theory!!! Then, only at the end of the day then i realised that david works at the police station near the driving centre... haha...

Anyway, going to Kushinbo was a last minute decision... Plus, trying to reserve a place there is weird... Shi hui and i both called and the restaurant and they told her that there were still seats, whereas, the lady told me that there were no more seats... so weird!!! anyway, when we got there, the restaurant was not exactly packed... so, we managed to get a seat in the end... haha... we had lots of sashimi until david was shocked at how much we can eat... hehe... maybe, we really did eat the whole fish... haha...the food was good....the soft shell crabs were quite good too... but, not really a fan of soft shell crabs becos it is fried... but, i loved the sashimi... yummy! i can live without pork, chicken, beef, etc... but, i can't live without seafood! haha...

After that, we did that most unappropriate thing after eating buffet... dress shopping! haha... well, shi hui doesn't really like mango, but, always seem to be able to get stuff from there... haha... overall, i loved that day... it was very very very very enjoyable...

This is the really really nice and expensive blackforest cake that zj loves to eat... haha... for ppl who love blackforest cakes, you should try this one.... personally, i don't really like blackforest cakes... but, this is seriously not bad..

This was the chocolate souffle i had at the chocolate factory... very nice!! The top was baked and crispy... and, the inside was soft...but, zj didn't really like it.. That was one of the sinful days i had during my hols...

HONG KONG!!!

I'm back from my trip! I have learnt alot, ate alot, shop alot, walked alot, carried alot and seen alot in just 4 days...

I'm so tired... I need my beauty sleep... We woke up at 7 everyday... Seemed more like a camp... But, it was fun going on a holiday with friends... This trip was my 1st free and easy tour with my friends...

It is so easy to get lost in a country that you haven't been to before... I'm horrible at reading maps... My sense of direction is horrible... and, whatever direction I chose to go, it seemed to be the direct opposite of where we are suppose to go... Luckily, i have zj and sh... haha... (wonder why i'm learning driving? I can predict i'll get lost every single time i drive...)

My legs are extremely tired... We walked alot... till my legs ached... The people in HK must be really skilled in walking long distances and up stairs and slopes... If there was ever an international walkathon, the HK ppl will win hands down... So many slopes, stairs, escalators and their mtr stations are huge!!!

Hmm... shall write down what we did each day... Otherwise, i think i'll forget...

1st day...
Our plane was delayed by 30mins! by the time we reached our hotel, it was 4pm... So late... Hai...Half a day wasted...After putting our luggage at the small hotel, we went to eat wanton noodles and milk custard... Milk custard is quite a nice dessert... wonder if singapore has it... After that, we walked towards the harbour to watch the symphony of lights... The symphony of lights was nice because the buildings were lighted according to the music played... We could see a few fireworks... It was quite a nice experience... So many buildings... so many people... We also walked along the alley of stars... There were any handprints of famous actors and actresses... but, i didn't know many of them... After that, we walked around to shop... The things there are quite expensive... Especially the clothes....

2nd day...
Woke up at 7...so early! anyway, we had dim sum for breakfast... quite yummy... and, 20 plus dollars for 8 ppl is quite cheap... After that, we took a bus to Ocean park... I'm not a big fan of the rollercoasters.. But, i love their aquariums!!! They have shark, fish and jellyfish aquariums... very nice!!!! and, it is air-conditioned... haha... i sound so spoilt... Well, it is summer in hk...so warm... the sun was so bright with the occassional drizzles... horrible weather... Singapore is much better... Well, we left ocean park at 6.... After that, the group split and zj and i went back to the hotel to put down our things first... then, we went for dinner and desserts around that area... the first time i had ginger soup with tan yuan... not bad... but, i still like the milk custard better...

3rd day...
Woke up at 7 again! we went to a "traditional" tea house to eat our breakfast... I ate noodles... that day, my appetite was quite good... ate alot... wonder why...After that, travelled to hk island and went to the mid levels escalators to eat egg tarts... yummy! haha.. the crowd seemed to follow everywhere we went...Then, we ate lunch and we tried the roasted pigeon...to me, it looked like duck and tasted like a combination between duck and chicken... After eating, we walked around shopping and then went to the peak... The tram up the peak was so cool!!! it was moving 45 degrees upwards... so steep! Anyway, the scenary there was so nice! can't believe there are actually ppl living so high up in the mountain...rich people... After that, we went to Madam Tussuads Wax Museum... It was not too bad... but, i think it is smaller than the exhibition singapore had a few years back... After that, we went back to jordon to eat dinner and headed back to the hotel...

Last day...
We woke up at around 9 and checked out at around 10... After that, zj and i went back to the bakery to buy egg tarts back to singapore... After that, we went back to the hotel to put down the egg tarts and went to mongkok to shop... Zj bought two pairs of shoes and a nice girly top... I bought a nice dress... haha...wonder if i'll wear it in singapore... oh well... I liked the last day becos we could walk around leisurely...

Overall, i bought more food than clothes... Quite glad about the things i bought for others... haha...travelling with friends is fun!
