hongkong trip5

19/7/06
Last day of my hk trip.

We had breakfast at the Australia milk company. Very delicious...yummy......

After breakfast i told my colleague that i'll go shopping on my own. Well, they hv to agree with it.

Wow...i feel so free. Walk very fast to shop in my hotel area. Wow...bought 3 shirts just on the way back to hotel.

I decided to go to causeway bay. Took mrt there. Start with sogo, bought some handbags n souvenoirs for friends.

Time is always not enogh. There r so much to shop n time is so little.

I went back to hotel at 3pm.

We took bus to airport at 3.40pm.

That marks the end of my hk trip.

Happy shopping. And finally i realise my dream has come thru. A very simple dream. To do summer shopping at hk. haha........

hong kong trip4



18/7/06 Macau
Today we went to Macau. And I went to Kim Gary for breakfast. There was 1 Kim Gary restaurant near our hotel.The toast was so delicious.yummy....

Then we went to HK-Macau port to take ferry to Macau. The ferry ticket was expensive. RM200.

1 hour boat ride. I sat next to debbie n was chatting. When the feryy started 10 min, i start to feel dizzy n suggest that we take a nap. Too tired. Slept all the way to Macau. When we reached Macau, i only realise that few of my colleagues throw out during the boat ride. I'm lucky that i slept all the way.

When we reached Macau, so lucky we met "sek shen".

Wa...all my lady colleague surrounding him like he's big star. We get some tips from him regarding where to eat.

Then we heading to "tumzhai" for sharkfin noodle. Nice street along the way. Very similar with melaka. Street with portugese style building. The sharkfin noodle was nice. And it cost Rm15. damned cheap. haha......

We also bought almond biscuit n egg roll. During this period, my colleagues n driver has some arguments. The driver was ridiculous. He accused us that we didnt mentioned his name when we bought the biscuits. And he lost his commisuion bcoz of that. But his words was terrible. Then finally we found out that it was the shop's employee's fault. They refused to give commission to the driver. haha....

Next we went to another tourist spot. The beautiful church is where the drama "shanghai tan" is shot. Remember the shot where hui man keong dashed into a church to interrupt cheng cheng n ting lek wedding. This is the place.

Then we went n take photo at macau tower. Nothing special. Just like the kl tower we see everyday.

Then they went to a kuanyin temple. My colleague pray.

Next we went to market where the local goes. Wow...many frsh vege n fruits. The longan n lychee was so sweet. Then we ate pork n "pigeon". We stand n ate at road side. 6 of us fighting for it. wow...so delicious.yummy......

Next we went to tai san pa. Macau landmark. Everyone come to macau will come here. We took photos n walked to the square nearby. Very nice nite view. Finally we came to an end of Macau trip.

Took bus back to hk.bye....

hongkong trip 3

17th july 2006 (wednesday)
Today we went to shenzhen. Had a breakfast at a local store behind our hotel. yummy...finally can have a taste of a local breakfast.

Then we took train to Lohu. The train was very packed. Cannot sit. Everyone's leg is almost gone but still has to struggle to stand.And when the train approached Lohu, passby few stations, can see the type of passengers bcome more "china". Sorry, mayb i'm a bit racist. haha..They wear very "selekeh". Reached Lohu and cross over to shenzhen.

First thing when we arrived shenzhen is go for foot massage. Ha! And we manage to find a very good deal. Only RM9 /hour. wow....even cheaper than bangkok.And the massage was great. The environment of 16 people doing foot massage together in a common area was unique. I once had this experience when i went for Abbott company trip to Kunming.

After massage we went for the cheapest lunch we find. Imagine 6 dishes, for RM5/pax. The dishes are sweet sour pork, saliva chicken (the restaurant specialty), sheong tong yin choi, vege, tauhu, etc. so cheap. All of us laughing our way out. Even if we eat mixed rice in KL also not so cheap. And it was delicious.

Next stop is east door(tung men) shopping district. We took mrt there. I followed adeline n group coz she's has been there b4. Wow....the area is so packed with teenagers. Even more people than orchard road. Difficult to imagine. And there r more than 10 shopping malls. All eths hopping malles is like sg wang.....now u have the idea...haha.....Tung men is the centre for clothing trading. So the price is very reasonable. But i have reservation for their style n quality. It was horrible. We didn manage to buy anything coz too many people n very dizzy.

Then we went to zhi qiang shopping area. Middle class shopping area. Finally we saw fashion more suitable for us. But i'm really too tired to walk n look around.

Finally we left shenzhen n headed back to hk. I tell myself this will be the first time n last time i'll visit shenzhen. Very abd ezxperienec.Especially the toilet. Just cross one border and it was heaven n helll diff compared to hk. I just had to hold my breath everytime i go to toilet.

Eventhough the city looks very modern, with high rise building, mrt, etc, but i still think that they need to improve their civil n moral values. Coz people still spitting along the road. And i saw mothers asking her young daughter to "berak" in public. And then they just use newspaper wipe the shit and dont even bother to throw to the dustbin. The newspaper will be left on the paveway. oh my god........And worse is, many ladies dont bother to shave and they wear sleeveless. I nearly fainted when i saw this.........

That's y i never like china. haha......

hongkong trip 2



16th july 2006 2nd day in Hk

Today is city tour. At first feel very boring coz going to most places that i've been.

First stop is hk dimsum near our hotel. Yummy...very delicious. But i think ipoh's char siew pau is better. Anyway it only cost us RM25.

After breakfast we went to chin shui wan. 2nd time going there. Never like that place coz it;s too commercialised. Eventhough it's a beach. My colleagues took so many photos. I dont seem to be interested on man made things. Haha....only then i realise i like to take picture with nature especially sea n mountain or lively photos. Not posing in front of a replica. haha.....

Next is stanley market. First time there. I have been wanted to go there coz i heard that it's very nice place. There r few nice restaurants architecture.

We went to 1 nice building to take photos. 1 of my colleague said that this is the scene in the drama about the pilot. And this is where Vincent (Ma tuch chong) proposed to Belle (chan wai sun). It seems so romantic. All the couples dashed there to take photos. Too bad....ong is not with me. So, i only take alone lor :(

Next is hongkong chai. This is the place where the famous jumbo seafood restaurant. And where stephen chow "kitchen god" is filmed. I still remember the last few scenes of the movie. As u all know, i'm a super stephen chow fans. haha......

After that we went to the hk convention centre. The landmark of hk back to china.

Next as usual, jewelery shop. boring. took 1 round n came out. Everyone did the same thing. Another chinese herbal shop ends our city tour.

After city tour is shopping time. We went to harbour city. wow...big place n great discount. Too bad we only have very short time. ididn manage to get anything.


Then we took the ferry to hk island and headed to wan chai. Stroll the pasar malam there. Then took the tram to causeway bay.

Next shopping crazy starts at causeway bay. I had mcd with colleague. I'm sick of waiting for them that are always late, i told them that i'll be on my own n will meet up with them later. They r quite worried about me. Anyway i reassured them that i'll be fine.

Hurray,.....it's so happy to be on my own. I went to patterson street (remember twin song, xia yi zhan de tian hou..one of the lyrics mentioned about this fashion street), mitsukoshi closing down sale, g2000, finally saw times square. But too bad. times up. Went back to meeting place.

Then we went to the hilltop tp watch the night scene. Wow....hk is forever so beautiful. Too bad the observation deck is renovating. We can only see from the side. But it was really very impressive.

After hilltop, everyone's leg was exhausted. So, we took a cab to lan kwai fong. Nothing much coz it's sunday nite. Took some photos n headed back to hotel....too tired.....

end of day

hongkong trip1

14/7/06
1 day b4 the trip. Very excited because there is 1 speaker from china coming to our agency. He is the top insurance agent in china. And he has a talk tomorrow in Kl where the participants has to pay hundreds to listen and he is talking to us free. Just because my GSM has a presonal relationsip with him. His talk is terrific. I really admire the beauty of chinese. Chinese n taiwanese people really can talk very well. Malaysian still a long way to go.

Stayed overnite at Sook Mun's house.

Chat till 2am.

Woke up at 4am


15/7/05(saturday)
Reached eric's house at 5am. The beginning of my journey of waiting for hk trip. I hate to wait for people that is late. Well, i guess i've waited long enough during this hk trip bcoz my colleagues are always late.

The taxi came at 5.15am. And we only took off by 5.30am. Imagine our plane was at 7.55am. And puchong is 45 min from airport. Everything is in a rush. Rushing for breakfast. Ruching to check in.

And the flight was a nitemare. A 737 to fly to hk. Oh my god! MAS only used it for local flight. And turbulence all the way. Can feel the plane shaking when landing. Everyone says that it's last time on china airline. But i told them that i used to flew to taipei and it was fine.

Landed at HKIA. Everything unchanged. Still busy as usual. The tour guide was quite a nice person. Mayb he knew that one of my colleague was an ex tour guide. So, he was very honest all the way. He drop us at Prudential Hotel, Jordan. Imagine 16 GE agent staying at Prudential Hotel??? What a joke?????

After check in we decided to walk to tsim sha tsui. Walking along the way, great sales everywhere. We went to parklane. All of us gone crazy in G2000. so cheap......i bought a shirt for dear for RM40 only..cheap......

Then we went to esprit outlet store. so so only.didn buy anythng there. Next stop is hui low san dessert. yummy...the mango dessert was so delicious.

Next is temple street. Nothing much as expected. Just accompany colleagues that has not been to go there.

Next we went to mongkok for teng zhai porridge. yummy....so delicious. Then we shop along women's street.

Reached hotel at 11pm.damned exhausted.

time to sleep....

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

换日线

那天在电台无意中听到张智成的换日线。这首歌令我有非常多的感触。

思绪回到2004年的冬天。我结束了我第二次到台湾之旅。往桃园机场的路途中,眼泪忍不住流了出来。硬撑着到机场下了车,办了出境手续,走到departure hall找个位置坐了下来。眼泪一直在流。可是毕竟是大庭广众,还是尽量忍着。已经有好几位男生往我看来。他们一定在想我在干嘛。
上了飞机,坐了下来。当飞机终于起飞,离开了台湾,眼泪就像缺堤的水流个不停。

拖著沉重的行李 機場廣播的聲音 人們互道再見的表情
回顧手機的訊息 初見面到相戀的痕跡 我怎麼忍心刪去

還想和你看北海道的雪祭
還想陪你走遍這世界風景

我就要往陌生的天空飛去 天知道我會多想你
當飛機越過傷心換日線 天空只留下寂寞無聲的盤旋
時間它能不能倒退一點 停格在你晴天笑臉
你的心飛過傷心換日線今後我們的世界地球各一遍
如果季風能把感覺連線要傳達給你說不完的思念

在机舱里一直用被单掩着年,深怕让空姐看到泪眼模糊的我。

我度过了这一世人最长最久的飞行。为什么家好像距离好遥远?我想应该是因为我把我的心遗留在台湾了。
我告诉自己我不想再经历多一次这样心碎的感觉。

在我第三次离开台湾时,我反而没有哭
