It's finally the day where I'm flying to another country again. Finally the day where I'm nearer to the sky. A bit baboon la but I love it whenever I'm up in the sky. Flight is at 8.55am and thanks "oreo's half dad" for giving me a ride to the airport at 5.45 in the morning-you know who you are. I arrived Hong Kong airport at around 1pm. 4 hours journey and I was reading this book throughout the flight. 400 pages in 4 hours-such efficiency! But man, that book is damnnnnnn good.
The first thing I did was to find a SIM card. I exited the immigration counter, took my checked in luggage and proceeded straight to the 1010 centre and purchased the HKD118 tourist 8 days SIM card. It's quite a good deal for me la cause it has 5Gb data and the rest I'm not so sure. Haha. Okay errr initially I wanted to take the airport express link but damnit I have two luggages with me and gah I'm alone. Too much of things to carry and its damn bloody hard to handle if I were to take the subway all the way from the airport. & so I took a taxi. It didn't take me long to reach my hotel, costs me about HKD240.
Checked in to the hotel and they asked for a deposit of HKD500. Settled my stuff and I went out right after. First thing I did was walk around my hotel area. Bought a drink for HKD7. It's only a minute walk from my hotel to the YAU MA TEI MTR and I bought an adult octopus card, HKD150. Err bought a wheat bread for HKD9. Then I went to TSIM SHA TSUI. Strolled around there for a while until I'm drenched in sweat, literally showered in sweat. Heat was damn unbearable here. Took a picture with the avenue of star statue-a prove that I was there :P then left the place and went straight back to my room. If I'm not mistaken, it was around 4.30pm when I reached my room. Bought some peaches and a cup of watermelon juice for HKD34. Took a shower and didn't feel like leaving the bed anymore! I was mentally and physically drained. Didn't get to sleep much last night....
At about 7.30pm, I went Mongkok. It was flooded with human beings. I was damn under-dressed. Dressed like some kind of hobo. Lololol. The heat wasn't that bad though. Not as bad as the afternoon. Errr had tons of street food-fish balls & gaidanzai for HKD20 and had a bowl of Sizhuan mee for HKD30 w a drink. Couldn't even finish half a bowl of the mee. The portion of one Sizhuan mee is equivalent to 3 portions of Malaysian-sized Pan mee. But it was good. Every bite was heaven. Too bad I couldn't finish it, not even half of it. Took a walk around the night markets. Nothing much to do after that so I went back to my room and decided to call it a night!
Oh and since I am sort of kind of daddy's little girl, I called my dad twice today and talked quite awhile and I had to reload HKD100. Yeapppp :P
