back from my holiday to Hong Kong with ade!

it has been a wonderful trip and i absolutely love how some of the people dress there. u get no such shit in singapore. there were so many sartorialist moments, but i was so busy staring that i didn't take my camera out to snap. i am completely giving in to their fashion of loose tops, baggy jeans folded at the cuffs, and high cut shoes. and they happen to like wearing fake glasses. a lot.

i ate so much there. but it was all worth the calories. as much as i missed Singapore food whilst i was in Shanghai, i had that wrenching feeling when i got back to singapore. I already miss all the dimsums and noodles there.

i had such a good time there, and i think it's mostly because of the lovely company of the beautiful yeong ladies. ade's mom was the warmest, nicest and most caring person ever. i nearly wanted to cry when she gave me a kiss on my cheeks because she was so happy. i don't think my mom ever did.

and although we didn't go to ocean park, we went to macau and it was so fun there. and i really meant the casino. gambling is vile, but i want to play the jackpot machine again.....

i was so excited about the trip that i prepared a itinerary with the help of my HK friend, hintak. in fact, i was so excited that i could hardly sleep and thus woke up ridiculously late on the morning of the flight.

ade's dad graciously offered to give me a lift to the aiport for our 640am flight. they would reach my place at 5am. i was startled awake at 450am when ade's message came in saying that they were on their way to my place.

till now, i still cannot figure out how i missed the two alarms i set. i vaguely remember waking up at some point of the night with my hand gripping my phone underneath the pillow, but i don't remember hearing any alarm ringing.

miraculously, i managed to get my butt downstairs by 507am. lucky me, they were really nice.

Marcus came to the airport to send us off. He is honestly the rare few people who take the effort to love friends around them. I got a lot to learn.

G came to pick me up on thursday. Lucky me, i have G who cared and missed me enough to want to pick me up despite it being so late. He hung out at my house till early morning when i'm done unpacking. it was nice of him because the house honestly feels really cold and empty nowadays.

did a small private screening of Durian Complex at GARAG3 today for the folks at e27. I received the usual confused response, which sparked quite a discussion about confusing films. It was pretty fun, and I was glad I did end up doing this screening because I half wanted to back out since I was feeling really tired.

got a headache now, will try to get more rest.
