My Humble and Cozy Home

yes, have finally found and moved into a place where i can call "my home" in Hong Kong. this moving house thingy has taught me that it's very expensive and very tough to move house. previously, living with my parents, my mum will take care of everything and i just got to move my ass. haha now, i know the amount of money and trouble my mum has to go through to move house. but luckily, my mum loves me enough to spend 2 weeks in Hong Kong, mainly to help me to settle down in my new home. hee hee i basically only need to pack my clothes and stuffs into the cupboards while my mum ensures that my toilet, kitchen and the rest of the home is in "working condition". and the end result, a comfortable and nice home. as the saying goes, " pictures paints a thousand words " and so here are the pictures of my humble home:

the kitchen. dont think that i've cut off the kitchen. this is how "big" my kitchen is. hee hee but enough as i dont really cook lah.

the sofa bed next to the kitchen. this is the extra bed which i can offer to my visitor. my house is sooo "big" that i can only afford to have 1 visitor in my house and it's already quite cramped. hahaha
shoe cabinet. honestly speaking, my shoes are wayyyyy too many for this tiny cupboard. so my mum, having good foresight, has shipped over a shoe rack and have placed it next to this cabinet so taht it can hold all my shoes. and i need to stop buying as there's no more space. haha. didnt take a picture of that as it's not exactly pretty but you can catch a glimpse of this in the picture. hee.
the divider. not sure if you can call this that. basically it's just cupboards and storage space that is placed next to my bed to kinda separate the "bedroom" from the "living room". it's pretty empty for now because i want to keep it empty and nice. hopefully i do not get rubbish and fill these spaces up!

the tv. isnt the tv big and nice? haha one of the reason why i love this apartment is the tv that it has. just nice and i can just lie on my bed and watch tv and fall asleep. haha but of course that is bad as it waste electricity and all the what-nots. hahahaha!

the bed. yes this is my bed. basically the houseowner has built a platform to houes the bed and cupboards. it's a very good idea as there are plenty of storage space under my mattress. it's not solid wooden platform but hidden space. so if i have a lot of stuffs, i can actually hide them inside. very good idea. will use that for my OWN home in the future!!!!

alrightly, this is the humble home that i am living in now. think i will be quite comfortable here and should be happy too.

my last week at happy valley *sad*

this is my last week in my service apartment. time really flies, this is my 3rd week in Hong Kong and I have found my place, got my mobile, and more or less know how to get around in Central. i am going to miss this home because it's rather big and happy valley is a good environment. my new home will be in kennedy town and it's much smaller than what im staying now. anyway, it's hope it's cozy and nice, actually i think it is, if not i wouldnt have rented it. HAHA okay im talking rubbish.

anyway the weather has turned cold. shioks! these few days, the temperature ranges from 17 degrees celcius to 24 degrees celsius. it's soooo shioks and the sun is shining brightly and the sky is clear. i wish i was at the beach, suntanning but i have to work. okay, maybe a little too chilly for me to do that. but anyhow, it's good weather! but i am sooo not prepared. when i first arrived, it's still hot and humid and so my clothes are lightweight and thin. but now, these clothes doesnt seem to work anymore and so i went out to buy jackets. take a look:

not bad right? quite happy with my buys. these are from H&M and they are not expensive. the first one cost around SGD 75 and the second one cost around SGD120. for a jacket, i think it's pretty alright. went to zara and mango, SOOOOOO expensive! anyway need to save money as i am going to NY next month for training and im soooo sure im going to spend another fortune there!! *grins*

ooh a friend just visited me over the weekend. shioks! it's nice to have someone to hang out with over the weekend. we went shopping, cutting hair, eating, partying. just like old times, except that currency is different and places are LKF instead of Butter Factory. tomorrow my mum and brother will be arriving. have 2 more friends visiting me in December! shioks! plus my mum and brother will be arriving tomorrow! cant wait to see them!

Am NEVER EVER going to celebrate Halloween!

just got home, pissed and angry. very pissed and angry. farking pissed and angry. just wasted HKD 500 for NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING. all i got was a glass of green tea, 20 pieces of potato chips, lost my heels for my shoes and anger! HKD 500 for all these worthless and valueless items. *ARGH* am soooo pissed and angry that i cant sleep!! *SCREAMS* this is what happen.

10/31/08 was halloween night. apparently it's a BIG thing in HK. people are getting costumes and all ready to party till dawn. i was invited to a private party and to a memebers-only club. was really excited as this is the first time im kinda dressing up ( got a wand and halo hairband) for a halloween party. so was really excited to attend the private party. i was expecting to see a decorated penthouse, with music and food. but when i arrived, it's just strangers, with NO food and NO drinks. NOTHING. just messy rooms with shoes, clothes, empty cups, dirty plates ALL OVER THE PLACE. sooooooo pisssed and sooooooo bored. i was really really disappointed and because i have paid HKD 250 for this, i went around lokoing for food and drinks. NOTHING. only managed to find potato chips and green tea. sianz 1/2 loh.

then the organizers said that we should start going to the club as there is heavy traffic (human and cars) in Lan Kwai Fong (LKF) area. So a group of us took the MTR ( which is like our MRT) from Causeway Bay to Central. when we reached central, they have closed the exit to LKF and made us walked around and around to get to LKF. but the problem is, the club is not even in LKF, it's on hollywood road. but becuase the traffic is controlled, we have to squeezed with the crowd and walked many extra miles just to get to LKF. i was already very pissed off and was sweating because the weather was horrible. I told my friend " hey, i think i am going home " but she said " but you paid already. at least go in and have a look at the club lah " then i was like " okay find, for the sake of my money " so we walked and walked and walked and walked. mind you, it's not flat terrian, it's UPHILL, yes UPHILL. so by the time i reached the club, im like 9/10 sianz and pissed already. accordingly to the organizers, we're on the guest list and should be able to get in. also i've paid HKD 150 for this. BUT when we were at the reception, we were told taht we have to paid HKD 200 more because we arrived after 1am. WHAT THE FARK IS THIS RUBBISH???? and then the UGLY and FAT BOUNCER chased out of the club's reception area and refused to let us in. however, i saw that he has been letting in hodes and hodes and hodes of ang mohs. what the fark!!! just becuase we're asians? such an idiot. i hope he rot in hell. yes im mean but i really hope that he will die a painful death adn rote in hell. he doest not deserve to live at all.

well, this is wayyyyyyy to much for me. so i told my friends " guys, im heading home. this is too farked up " and i jsut walked off. walked a bit more and thank God, a cab came by. hop into the cab and then my friend called and tell me " hey, we're in. " and i go " so? am in a cab too. enjoy! " soooooooooooooo angry with all the farked up arrangement. i am NEVER, EVER going to attend and pay for any more event organzied by this organizers. seriously, im wondering if her bills are really that high that she has to collect so much money from us. the other time, we went clubbing togets. she told us it's HKD 250 each. so we paid. and then on the next day, she suddenly mentioned that it's HKD 350. WTF. biatch!

NEVER am i going to attend any events organized by her. NEVER am i going to accept any invitations from her. NEVER is she going to get a single cent from me again. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER!!!!!! my peeps in Singapore told me that they are going to butter factory to party. i bet they are having a good time and i bet if i were there, i would have a blast!
FUCK!
