Okay, I have seriously partied every single night. It’s like I’m on permanent vacation. Went to Wan Chai last night, saw a really UGLY girl dancing on top of a bar. Got free drinks & free clubbinggg. Went to Lan Kwai Fong tonight. HELLA POPPINGGGG. Went to Shake Shake. Got like 5 tequila shots and a mixed drink. Btw, this is all FREE. Good to be a girl in asia. There is a lack of so I guess thats how they attract girls and thus guys to come to their club! Seriously, come to HK. I got so many free drinks and all I pay is the taxi ride, about $27 aka $4USD. So cheap for a whole night out!

 

The good, the bad, and the ugly. January 17, 2012

The good. I woke up this morning and I saw SUN! It was always either cloudy or rainy for the past four days…such a GORGEOUS DAY today. I was on campus from 9:30-3pm, so sad I had to be cooped up inside on such a beautiful day. My auditing class got canceled and I decided not to go to my Principals of Entrepreneurship class since my roommate is in it and they don’t do anything on the first day other than hand out the syllabus. So we decided to go out and enjoy the beautiful view at Tsim Sha Tsui (TST).

The bad. After BREATHTAKING views at Avenues of Stars, we were hungry so we decided to go to a bakery. There, I found out that my wallet wasn’t there. I lost my wallet. I either got pick-pocketed or it dropped on the bus when my wallet fell as I was dozing off. Either way, it’s gone. I called the bus operator, but theres a slim to no chance of recovering it. I had a couple hundred HKD, my citi credit card, my Bank of China ATM card, CA license, Cal ID and octopus card with about $150HKD left. It could have been worse I suppose.

The ugly. So this has nothing to do with me, but as if the day couldn’t get worse, Carson lost his phone. He will be on his third phone and fourth SIM card when he gets his new phone. Man, this guy really has shitty luck with phones.

I guess we had to pay for such a beautiful day somehow. =[

 

ALL MOVED IN! January 15, 2012

Sorry I haven’t updated anything in such a long time! I barely had any down time in Taiwan and I just took some time to unpack my stuff today in Hong Kong (today is my second day here). I will post more about my TAIPEI trip later as I don’t have much time right now. 

So I still can’t believe I will actually be living here for the next four months. It definitely feels like a vacation. I still haven’t set foot on campus nor do I know which classes I am taking as I haven’t attended orientation to find out which classes I am enrolled in. I will figure that out tomorrow on the first day of school. WOOHOOO. 

Anyways, quick update on my living situation. I’m in a room with three other girls so a 4-person room. It’s pretty spacious, mostly because everything is lofted and the twin beds here are way smaller than the twins at home. My hall is like dorm style, bathroom and showers are outside down the hall. I haven’t met anyone from my floor yet though. =/

OH. If I go home and got fatter, then I consumed WAYYY too much food in Hong Kong. I am climbing hills and walking miles everyday. If that doesn’t balance out a little with my diet, I am going to cry and kill myself for being a fat ass. You guys gotta let me know. 

Okie, that’s all the time I have to update. I still need to figure out classes and shower so I can sleep early and get up at 8am tomorrow! 

 

LAUNCHED! January 6, 2012

HI! Yay I finally got around to creating this thing, after Tumblr rejected me (either the dashboard is blank after I created an account or it says that the page is not found, either way, it hates me). I’m leaving on Saturday so this is probably my one and only post in the U.S. I still haven’t packed any of my stuff yet…mostly have all the gifts for other people ready. I think I will probably end up packing a lot on Friday night and Saturday morning. Yay last minute packing…
