Where have I been? -- HONG KONG!!


Tallest Building in HK -- IFC (international finance Centre...you can find most of the big brands here)

Snuggling up in this cozy single bed for 4 nights. Sooo sexciting!hahaha
On the way up to The Peak
View from the Peak -- SIMPLY BREATHTAKING (apart from the fog)
telling the world that I've been here!
Peak Tower -- U can go up to the observatory tower to catch a bird's eye view. But dont be ridiculous! Why should I pay to see? We simply walked further down and found a scenic spot. best of all, it's FREE!


Seafood @ Lamma Island
Trying to catch a Lobster for dinner. Eeek!

wow! Such giant squids!
Bamboo Clams...yum! (saw them moving...eek!)
Scrumptious Clams with celery (very tasty!)


Been missing in action for a week now because I've been on a holiday with my dearest darling! Went to Hongkong for 5 days. was gracefully accommodated by a friend at her apartment near Gold Coast Hotel. Nice view, facing sea, has a yatch club nearby and a man-made beach! there's even a mac donalds and couple of restaurants + Watsons within walking distance! Isnt' that cool? Only problem, it's a little away from the hustle and bustle. Located amidst the greeneries, this place is along Castle Peak Road which is in New Territories. I'm not complaining, coz the air there is supposedly better! The place is also extremely accessible. There's shuttle buses to Tsim Sha Tsui MTR Station, bus to Central, airport transfers, and of coz Taxis.

Upon arrival on the first day, we went to chk out Central. Due to time constraints, we could only do THE PEAK. Took a train and boy was it a steep ride up! It's supposedly the highest peak in HK. Prices of tix was only 60 cents long long ago. Now..many many times more expensive! Reached the peak and the view was breathtaking. Sadly, it was very foggy and we couldn't take nice pictures. the air was nice a cool and perhaps a little polluted too. The skies were amazingly hazy. At night, we went to Lamma Island for some delicious seafood with our friend Neil. Ordered lobsters, delicious celery & clam, lemon chicken, noodles, oh-so-soft squids for approximately SGD 200+. YYUMMY! but the boat ride there was amazingly long! Took us almost an hour before we arrived.

Vietnamnese dinner @ Indochine


My goodness! how long have i not blogged? There's just so many things to do and so little time!! FOr the past few wks, I've been busy working like a dog. No day no night. Now, I can finally take a breather. A small one though. Things are not as fast pace and I manage to date my hunny bunny last night and we went to NUDE restaurant by Indochine. Mind u, there are no nudity at that establishment. Can we thus sue them for misrepresentation of words? haha

We had delicious Vietnamnese cuisine (i had the chicken noodles whilst he had the beef..we also had an appetizer-- some Laosian deep fried seseme Chix Wings..which are errrr your regular chix wings with a little more taste? The dip was sweet which I dont exactly enjoy.. the noodles were alright, after you put in all the spices and sauces). I thought it'd be nice for us to enjoy it in SIngapore since we can't join our friends on the 20th for a trip to Vietnam. :-( Nevertheless, we have bigger plans!!! We are going to HONG KONG yee pee! Causeway, Kowloon, Tsim Sha Tsui, here we come!!

After dinner, we went for a little shopping spree. Checked out Wisma and boy, i think i've become a country pumpkin! THe place changed so much. Patronized ON COTTON and bought some very cute undies! They are to die for! *SLURP*
