Day 26

Just came back from church with Aunty Virginia. It was really cold today but it was fun. Me and Aunty Virginia will be going to Chai Wan later to join Aunty Michelle and the others for hotpot. I am so sad because I will be leaving Hong Kong tomorrow night. In fact, I miss the weather here too as the weather in Malaysia is hot. But anyway, I have to go back to school and have PMR next year.

I will be going out to buy some stuff tomorrow morning before I leave for Penang. Have got a lot of things and gifts for my friends.

Aunty Virginia's niece came to sleep over yesterday night. It was fun because she took a long time to explain what she meant when she was telling me something. HAHA. Well, we slept late. Anyway, me and Aunty Viriginia went to Yuen Long today to help Aunty Michelle to perform 2 songs. After that, we went around to shop for some stuff.

Will be having dinner later with Aunty Viriginia, Uncle Terrance, their father, her niece and nephew and maybe Aunty Anne. Got to go now...

Day 24

Me and Aunty Virginia went to Wan Chai and Sham Shui Po to do shopping today. I bought lots of gifts and stuff for some of my friends. The things were cheap and nice. So, I bought myself a pair of ADIDAS sport shoe, 3 pairs of PUMA socks and 2 NIKE school bags for me and Nicolas. But it was quite expensive.

After that, we went to Yau Ma Tei. We sang christmas songs on the streets and it was awesome.

Okay, I will stop here for now. Will try to update tomorrow. MERRY CHRISTMAS!! =D

Day 23

Me and Michaela went to Ocean Park today. It was really crowded and we did not get to sit on every ride they have. Anyway, we took some pictures of birds and nature. We just went around since we had to wait for such a long time to ride on the roller coasters. I waited for an hour just to sit on a ..less than 5 minutes ride. So,these are the pictures that I took there...

Though the crowd was unbearable, it was a good experience for me to learn things on my own.

Till then,

2010-12-16T05:49:00.000-08:00

We did not go to Echo Valley today because the weather was too cold. The temperature was around 8-9 degrees. It was freezing. BRRR....

Anyway, we were at home the whole day. At around 6p.m. , we went to the MTR station in Admiralty to meet Aunty Virginia and her friend. We went to Yao Ma Tei to look around. But it was crowded. Then, we had dinner at her friend (Gary) 's house. And the food was delicious.
We did nothing much today but shiver because of the cold weather.HAHA

So, that's it for today. We will go to Echo Valley tomorrow. I didn't know time passed. It has been already 16 days since I reached Hong Kong. But I am now used to the weather and the living lifestyle in HK. And I am enjoying my time right here.

Hope to update again tomorrow. Hopefully, the weather here won't be that cold again. Got to go, BYE

2010-12-13T05:57:00.000-08:00

We rested for the whole day because we were tired. Therefore, I and Michaela woke up late. We just sat at home. And at night, Michaela went to her uncle's house and I went for dinner with Aunty Annie, Uncle Terrance and their father at a chinese restaurant. I have pictures but its hard to upload as it takes quite some time. Anyway, Aunty Annie took me to look around the shops in Causeway Bay but I didn't buy anything. I was quite exhausted and tired today. So, I might go and sleep earlier later.

Thats it. I am going to stop right here. Hope to update again soon..BYE

HK- Day 12

2010-12-12T05:28:00.000-08:00

Went to the kindergarden today to help Aunty Virginia to teach sunday school. So, these were the kids whom she taught. They learned about Joseph and his brothers today. Might need to go there again tomorrow to help them out. This is also a picture of them. :)

After that, we went to a secondary school to have a celebration with the handicaps. We had some performances and events which were interesting. It was a tiring day for us but I enjoyed every single bit of it.

When we were at the secondary school, I was taking some pictures of the flowers found outside in the garden. They have a beautiful and nice garden.

So, I will stop right here. I had fun today because we had to perform a dance and we got the best dance or performance award. =D We took some time to prepare the props and actions for the dance. I am happy because I have 2 new friends. They are Aunty Daisy's daughters. But I forgot to ask about their name. Anyway, we had dinner at a japanese restaurant with them and we ate lots of sushi s.

Hope to update again soon..BYE..

HK-Day 11

2010-12-11T04:25:00.000-08:00

I just sat at home today doing nothing because it was a Saturday. Michaela went to her uncle's house. So, I was all alone at home watching this korean series--PRINCESS HOURS. At around 6p.m., I went to the same restaurant we ate yesterday with Aunty Virginia, Uncle Terrance, their father and their sister. The food there was nice. Its 8.20p.m. right now. I might continue watching Princess Hours later. I am not a fan of korean movies or dramas actually. I was just bored and there were a lot of korean movies and dramas at home. So, I watched it. :)

Need to go now...will post again tomorrow..Tomorrow's going to be a really busy day for me.. =) BYE...

HK- Day 10

2010-12-10T04:33:00.000-08:00

We woke up late today because we were all very tired. At around 2p.m., we reached Echo Valley. I helped them to do the computer stuff while Michaela did paper work. We were a bit tired throughout the whole day. At night, Uncle Terrance brought us to a restaurant for dinner. The food there was delicious. In fact, the food in Hong Kong can't be compared to Malaysia..=) Anyway, we came back at around 8.30p.m. and updated our daily assignment, that is, to write 10 sentences about what you have done or went to. So, I am doing it now. I actually lost count of time and date because I am having a lot of fun here. The weather is cool. Malaysia is really hot..=/

So, I will stop here. Will continue to update my blog tomorrow...BYE!!

Day 9- Hong Kong Disneyland

At about 10.30a.m., Anuty Virginia and Uncle Larry met up with us( me and Michaela) at the MTR station. Then, we met another friend, Geroginia. After that, we took the MTR to Sunny Bay which leads to the Hong Kong Disneyland.

When we reached Hong Kong Disneyland, I was amazed by what I saw. The view of everything was amazing. Here are some of the photos that I took while I was there.

The main entrance..

ooops! What was I looking at??HAHA

Sleeping Beauty's castle

After that, we went to Tarzan's treehouse..these pictures were taken on the way to his house.

We also went on roller coasters which were exciting and fun. (SPACE MOUNTAIN)

This was the car that I drove...badly. =(

Next, they had this Let It Snow parade.

This was one of the main attraction there.

At night, they had fireworks display. It was pretty..

the rubbish bins.

In conclusion, we had a whole day of fun and excitement. It was indeed interesting to play and learn things that I never knew.

2010-12-06T05:33:00.000-08:00

We went to Echo Valley (Handicap centre) to help out with their gift wrappings for a party this coming Sunday afternoon. There were only a few people including me, Michaela, the pastor and a few other friends there. After that, we went to a restaurant to eat. Hong Kong food is nice and delicious. :) At about 5 p.m., me and Michaela went to LUI YAN KAI (MONGKOK) to shop. And I bought 2 long pants which costs altogether $200....=/ Not only that, I also bought a ("GIORDANO") jacket( sweater) for Nicolas and me and a pair of socks. And I got a free bottle of shower gel. But its altogether......$433.=(

I am forcing myself right now not to buy anything this week after looking at what I have used up. Will and might be shopping again maybe next week or next next week... =)   That will keep me on track on my daily usage of money.

Uncle Terrance cooked a nice dinner for us before we went shopping just now. :) Tired now after walking for like...6 days non-stop. Got to go. BYE..

Day 3

We didn't do anything because we(me and Michaela) were not feeling well. She had stomach pain and I had a horrible headache. So we went to bed before 10p.m.

Day 4

It was a Saturday and we went around the streets to shop and eat with Michaela's uncle,aunty and her cousin. We also went to Causeway Bay and MongKok. We had fun searching for the things we wanted but it was crowded.Indeed, we had a pleasant evening and ended with a nice dinner at a restaurant.

Day 5

Michaela, Me, and Aunty Virginia went to church (North Point Alliance Church) today. Before that, we had breakfast and I ate this...

Michaela and Aunty Virginia...

We attended the English service which started at 12.15p.m. And here are some pictures which I took when I was there..

After that, Michaela followed her uncle and aunty to go somewhere and Aunty Virginia took me around the market in HK and the shops in the supermarkets. Might go and shop again for stuff .....maybe on the last few days before I leave for Penang from Hong Kong.. =)

Hong Kong--market

HK-Day 2

2010-12-02T01:19:00.000-08:00

We woke up at around 9.00a.m. and had breakfast at a shop downstairs. =) Me and Michaela had a big bowl of pork noodles =D and....we did NOT finish them. =( Talking about this, it reminded me of yesterday..HAHA....we had dinner at this restaurant and we ordered chicken rice which costs $40 each. We were shocked when they served us our food. And I couldn't finish it. =(

Anyway, we went to visit a nursery and went to a huge supermarket...=) YEAP! and had some pictures taken there. We did nothing much today as we were all exhausted and sleepy..

the streets in HK..

OOPS!!! This was the chicken rice I was talking about.Well, I took it from the other angle...=D So, the food may look a bit too little for you guys..haha

We are going to have dinner later at one of the shops downstairs later at about 6.00p.m

Will upload pictures tomorrow if I have. =) BYE.

Hong Kong- Day 1

2010-12-02T01:03:00.000-08:00

Me and Michaela reached HONG KONG after 3 hours and 40 minutes of travelling on the plane. The experience was indeed surprising as we had to check our luggage and bags in on OUR OWN, and ask people for directions. The view on the plane was amazing! =) haha...but the plane was a little bit shaky as the weather was cloudy....here are some pictures that I took on the plane..

I also didn't expect the sky to be so dark when its 5.00p.m. =) But the view of the city from the top is beautiful! =)

So, we reached the airport and Aunty Virginia came to fetch us. HEHE...we took a bus and went home- Fortress Hill. =) This is my first holiday trip alone with a friend..and I am hoping to see what comes next tomorrow.

NITE!

Hillside Baptist Church (HBC) had this VBS camp. =) Amazingly, we had more than 50 kids who signed up for this camp. The camp will be from the 25th to the 28th of November. And I guess a lot of them had fun playing games and singing songs.Well, I was too busy to update the activities we had for the last two days in my blog. So, I am doing it now..=) I enjoyed myself alot today cause we had this new song call the ''ABCs''. Anyway, the older kids played baseball in the field. It was awesome! I am sure they had lots of fun. =) Here are some pictures of them..

I can only upload two photos because the loading process is very slow.=(

All in all, we had a wonderful time with the kids.They have taught me how to be more patient and kind towards them. =)

Looking forward to see them again tomorrow..
