Back from HK

I'm back from Hong Kong! I think HK is getting more and more crowded. Regardless of the time, everywhere was packed! Even at 12am in the morning. Don't people need to work on a weekday?? I remembered having more fun the last time. Maybe because it was a novelty then. Nonetheless, I still enjoyed the break and all the shopping (I love H&M!) and of course... EATING! :)

I'll upload more of the other pics when I've sorted them out. However, one recommendation in HK is to visit Lantau Island. Something outside of the bustling Hong Kong Central. We did a half day trip there and I must say the Buddha statue is magnificent.

Though my birthday is still a couple of days away, I had my share of cakes, Thanks to all my friends!

First cake, from Citco gang:

Hi guys! yes we went there. I was very young the last time I went to Lantau. So we decided to go back to refresh my memory. I strongly recommend people to visit. Other than that, HK is just like another Singapore. Just even busier.

I use the program Picasa. u can download it for free. I love it!

The Orange Timber

Today was a pretty chill day, walking around, eating and reading my book! It has been a long time since I walked along Blk 85 market. I think the last time was during my sec sch days, on my way back to my grandma house after sch. Since I had breakfast there with my grandma today, I showed der the old sch cake shop where Cham and I bought a huge cream cake (not those fanciful ones we get these days) and finished it all by ourselves under the void deck! Der and I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a slice each :) Strawberry vs blueberry...Only $1.10 each. Those miniture ones that are sold at toast box cost $1.20 and they are only 1/3 the size of this! What a rip off for something nostalgia... Later in the evening, we decided to chill at The Orange Timber @ Tiong Bahru The Orange Timber is a cafe cum art gallery. The plates are bowl used were also meant to be something nostalgia once again... hah However, I use those cutlery at home too. There are like 3 sections to this small cafe...

A very big Thank You to Jetstar and JetSaver Light! We had an AWESOME trip. Not only was it a cultural and stomach full filling trip filled with nothing but one of the very best food :), we also experienced the affable nature of the people in Penang and most importantly, we made many friends to keep :) Below was the itinerary that got us selected. And we're proud to say that we completed everything mentioned and accomplished even more. Wednesday, 1st July  marks JetSaver Light inaugural flight to Penang and also our, team 4's (GO! Go! team 4!!), inaugural trip to Penang on Jetstar with a budget of SGD60. After the initial briefing and collecting of our SGD60 which we converted to  RM144 , we were all ready and excited to jet off. Checking out the duty free at terminal 1 before boarding . Upon our arrival at Penang, we were warmly welcomed by a group of local performers . A surprising start to the trip. A photo taken together with 2 of the performers outside Penang International...
