I miss the bears back at sg too.

HKICO + coincidences!

We were really lucky, met friends from singapore here - pure coincidence!!! :)

Just by sitting in PCC in HKU to enjoy coffee...
And then a group of Singaporeans came to sit at the table beside me.
混在一起 after a while.
And, tada! great surprises! :)

Seems like it's all fated sometimes..just when I decided my dizis are going to be lonely here --> was urged to pick them up again --> knowing a new friend who opened the doors to the CO here :)

Now I'm back to being friends with my lonely dizis again. :)





In any case, HKICO was held last week. Orchestras from different places, including Singapore, Cananda, Guangdong etc. came to Hong Kong for performances. Caught one at HKU and two at HKCC :)




This was in HKU on Wednesday night. There was also this group of 5 people who were really impressive :)


the Cultural Centre at Tsim Sha Tsui. Something like Esplanade..



And all these performances made me spend on CO CDs! Bought one with 梦蝶 in it and the other one with Ancient Capital. :) My newest favourite songs.

Cheung Chau :)

The day started with a morning call. It's so early!



On the 9.05am express ferry.


This new friend, named i-Phone, travelled with us :)

Touring around Cheung Chau..mostly residential area. Quite a small island in fact.

Risked our lives climbing up this wooden plank balanced against the wall to get this photo! haha. Well, actually it was just about 1.5m away from ground.
Wellwell... of course we've got to do some acting.

Cat-hunting on the trip.


Went to the not-hot beach. No sun, only chilly winds. :(

Funny legs.
Favourite shoes - crocs.



Yummy BBQ at night. That got us so so so so so full that our cup noodles were left for breakfast the next day.


Had a really enjoyable trip :) Hotel was comfortable enough too..with a nice view from the balcony. Well, it's nice since we overlooked the beach and it was the sea in front of us... but really....the beach was so small........

www.hko.gov.hk

My favourite website in Hong Kong! :)

Currently the warning issued is Monsoon. With occassional gusts and squally showers.

Sadly the typhoon that was on its way to Hong Kong several days ago has changed its mind about coming and the T1 signal is cancelled.

Then came the amber rainstorm warning. Which finally I see that it is raining when this warning is hoisted. Got all wet when we went out to buy dinner..felt like it's the typhoon that was here instead.

I think it will be fun to work in the weather station here in Hong Kong. It's so different from Singapore.. the number of warnings that they have and the seemingly huge number of measurements that they take throughout the day. In comparison, it seems like the weather station in Singapore is not so fun.

Well, I guess I'm just concerned when school will be cancelled due to bad weather here. Haha.

Stanley Market





Stanley market is just another place for tourists. Can tell from the style of the markets. But it was really really packed.

The good thing was that it is near the sea, so there are quite nice views.

And we were mad! We all went to take the stimulator! Quality wasn't that good though.. "jam" halfway one!

Oh yes... and we had ice cream from Hagen Daz! :) :)
