The journey started at 10 in the morning when.. Yes! I woke up. Almost in a trance i rose from my slumber and prepared for another day out.

First, I walked across the street to LRT station.

Turn left to kelana!

Count it! 7 stations to Dang Wangi from Setiawangsa.

Picture of me coming between them!! whoaa.....

Kenot forget d stoner guys. so laidback and ''cool'' konon lor. i duno. my idea of ''cool'' is different... it's the nicholas type of cool. outgoing and funny.

ok! 3pm... it's time to leave. rush rush rush!! monorail from Imbi (Platform B dis time) to KL Sentral.

Where I took a bus... and met up with Edwin at Subang Parade at 4.45pm. craaap! bought joey's present and took taxi (RM20) to joey's hse........ all the way in KOTA KEMUNING. -.-!!!

hong kong + shenzhen

this is da pictorial report! haha... which reminds me... kyc havent do report. dang... nobody emailed me anything. guess i'll hafta do old style lah.. me n myself do. =(

anyway, tuesday til saturday i was in hong kong n shenzhen (which is the part of mainland china closest to hong kong). so i'll let the pictures tell the story... is not a picture worth a thousand words? but stil, i'll explain each picture lah. haha... im contradicting myself, aren't i? nah.

first day in hong kong. had wan tan mee soup for dinner... and a beef noodle soup as well. they really did it nicely, the beef. the tenderloin part which is usually tough and sotong-like texture now feels like fat. which turned me off actuali. but still... the soup tasted good. seen here is me looking all sleepy from the flight. (pretend onli la.)

this picture is specially dedicated to my dear friend chin kheng lam aka mushroom.

next day in repulse bay, hong kong. this is one huggeeeeee doggie. cant reli see la, but u compare its height to its owner. my brother and i were standing a good 5m away la, coz the owner said it's okay to take picture but we gotta be far away just in case he snaps. whew! the dog was onli 8 months old leh. and it's about the height of his owner's chest when the guy's sitting down. whew!

dad, me n bro. dragon thingy. mm.

who's that? is it...?? it can't be!! ming wai actually looks SMALL!! haha... still repulse bay.

cheh... gaya eh? haha... this was in a 'transportation sampan' somewhere in hong kong waters. behind me (look past the haze) is the 'jumbo floating restaurant'.

perfect desktop picture, don't u think? haha... jumbo restaurant again in background.

evil brother took photo of sleeping me.

on board train to shenzhen, where we walked across a bridge to china. i walked to china, ppl!!

hotel in shenzhen, china. posing like santa. i tink i actually outsize santa leh... i gotta start going gym. haih...

outside the... erm... duno. haha...

revenge!! sweet revenge!! yawning duckie bro in bus.

inside miniature china. across the very serene looking lake/pond is a miniature chinese palace.

the trip was actually my dad's company trip. L-R: dad, jason, ming hui, chris (dad's secretary hidden behind my bro. wife of jason), me, engineer mun kong, his girlfriend whatshername, lil girl, florence, lil kid, and buck hin my dad's salesman and husband to florence n father of the 2 irritating kids.

snake!! ohh... it's a snakkeeee.... (for more info click here)

inside disneyland hong kong. we were having turkey legs. huge!! not very great tasting but hugee!!!

ooh... funky.... some shades disneyland gave to make every light i see look like snowflakes. works just as well with any point source of light! confirmed by sow huey ru. =D

well... disneyland was.... okaylah. after going to disneyland anaheim in los angeles and disneyland paris... i have to say it sucks. there's only one rollercoaster, the space mountain. well... others are just rides. nothing exciting lah. if u wana go to a real disneyland go to florida. that ain't disneyland tho. it's disneyWORLD. there are 6 worlds in disneyworld, each the size of disneyland paris, which is a lil bigger than disneyland hong kong. aisheeee....

my christmas plans!! today i had dinner with mum's side of d family at kelab darul ehsan. nice food. tmr it's out with sabrina and da gang somewhere i dont noe yet, den staying over at her place along with the whole bunch of ppl. den wednesday im trying to get zmin to go out with me. haha... surprising eh? after 9months still gotta ask and ask for dates. but u noe wat? it's worth it. every single time. not her fault anyway... it's d weather conditions. unfavorable. sometimes when there's typhoon at home, den cannot lo. haha...

my bro's laptop kena some kinda virus n his comp was sort of formatted of some sort lah. anyway since i came to my dad's place here in subang at around 11pm, i've been downloading n installing stuff like iTunes, AVG and windows live msngr for him... so now i have hardly any time to update coz im yawning like every 10seconds. my eyes are dry. anyway. update first...

i went to klang today with edwin and hanged (hung?) out with nicholas... nicholas drove us around all day. first stop: bah kut teh under d bridge. splendid! neva ate any bah kut teh as good as dat b4. next stop: more bah kut teh! went gallivanting around for another shop to prey on. den after dat we lepaked at d new jusco in klang, den went to play some bball. haha... i won nicholas 11-9 thanks to my 3pointers which got me from 0-5 to 2-7 and den suddenly 9-9, and d winner of coz. hahaha... i guess nicholas wasnt even trying hard to play la, tatsuai can beat him. kai!

after bball we went for cendol (i had 2 bowls of cendol, a cup of coconut juice and a cup of sugarcane juice) den they dragged me to a barber. yesh, i have a new haircut. even tho it's diff and nice but still a bit uneven lah d sideburns there... like got patches of thichk hair surrounded by thin hair. but anyway it's still cool and i'd reli like to show u guys but.... my consciousness is slowly fading dy. addlkfdlkjzzzzzzzzzz..... huh? huh? oh. yeah. blog. update. must. mmm....

i'd really like to update more but... tmr is my flight to hong kong where im going on holiday with my dad n bro n my dad's company (company trip ma) til saturday. actually it's hong kong - shenzhen which is d southernmost part of mainland china near hong kong. flight's at 1pm, so if you'd like to call and talk to me one final time for the next 5days (no ming wai leh. can survive anot....?) can call b4 noon lidat larh. i miss vina. =( it's like falling in love but not in THAT kinda way larh. it feels so magical to have a special friend but not in d romantic manner... it's a totally different feeling. it's good! like eating wagyu beef. mmm.... wagyu beef....
