Plane fright

i just reached home in hk at 9pm on sunday...gosh, i lost out the whole of my weekend for this trip...left hotel in philly on saturday at 9am...24 hrs altogether!!! for this trip, instead of taking the transit flight from philly like i always did, we drove from philly to NY airport instead...it was actually faster than transiting...this will be my route from now on...on saturday, my colleague drove from philly to half way in new jersey, and i continued the drive from new jersey to brooklyn bridge to NY airport...i couldnt believe i drove on one of the famous bridges..it was a great experience!!!! took us only 2.5 hrs to reach...instead of 5 hrs of plane ride from philly to LA (plus 2 hrs of waiting and 1 hrs of driving time)

this is a picture of brooklyn bridge while we were in the car...it looked magnificent

Anyway, for this flight, i forgot to check in online earlier and when i did it, there was one last aisle seat left..which was second last row...i took it anyway coz it would be more convenient for me...but it turned out that it was the worst decision i have ever made!!! the moment i sat down, i felt like vomitting coz the person sitting beside me was a huge man...and what made it worse, he had body odour!!! u would think, what's the big deal...let me tell u why: first, it was a 15 hrs flight, second, it was not a normal odour..it was normal odour plus strong weird smell (sour + salty)...i wonder what this man ate for all his life...i don't wanna know...so i asked the cabin crew to find me a seat in front...without checking, she told me today's flight is too full, no seat available..i was sooOOooo disappointed and didnt know how to cope with the smell....i didnt dare to breath...i tried to cover my face but i couldnt...then i asked for help for the second time..again, i got the same answer...desperate but didnt know what to do...after the plane took off, my tv screen did me a favour..it was broken and i asked for help...they reset it for me, still broken, i got angry and scolded the crew...and guess what, they found me a seat!!! in fact, they had a lot of seats in front...i felt so cheated...guess what im gonna do now? log into the site and lodge my complaint!!!!!

after i changed my seat, i went bek to my old seat to take my bag...surprisingly, another lady took over my seat..guess what she was doing the whole time..she was holding her breath, pressing hard on her nose all the time....i didnt know if she sat there throughout the whole flight..i know i couldnt...and wouldnt

Party @ Jane's humble little place

Today, i woke up at around 815am and went to buy my grocery...the moment i was doing my grocery, i was a bit regret for making myself so busy...i wish i could have just said "let's go out for dinner"...but i didn't..i had tonneds of things to do...need to think of what to cook, get grocery, get plastic plates and cups, get soup pot from my friend, get ingredients i couldnt get at the supermkt at my place, need to take my friends to wong tai sin, the most important of all, clean my apartment and cook!!! it was a LOOooong process for me..quite tiring, but after i finished, i was proud at myself and glad that i invited my friends over to my little place ;)

i finished most of the things now...now just waiting for my friends to come before i cook other stuff..oh, my friends are gonna come here and cook some dishes...im so touched :') well, LJ, u wanted pics, im gonna fulfill ur wish..hahah..but instead of photos, i took video for u...hehehe..let me know how u think of my humble little place :) ....my video has music oh...

just talking

I actually have no idea what i wanted to write...just logged into some blogs and read through and found out something...kenny's blog becomes increasingly boring...i remember when he first started, i'd log into his blog every single day..sometimes a few times in a day and i re-read some of his posts...they were so sentimental and original, after x yrs, it becomes commercialised and all i do is log in (hardly nowadays), see what topic he has, scroll up and down without reading and not even waiting for the pics to download, then close off...how sad is tat? but he still has a lot of fans..i guess everyone has different taste....i like nicolekiss' blog...she is more original and very sentimental...sometimes she could be very expressive, which i enjoy reading..and my blog? hahaha..it has become boring too...i hardly update, hardly have new topics, and im not so sentimental :p oooppss...my physic told me that my friends are gonna abandon my blog soon....hey, better than xiao hui who never updates her blog now..HELLOoooo...xiao hui, are u there? pls reply me~~~

oh, this saturday, i invited some of my friends to my humble little place for dinner..im gonna make home-cooked meal...i have been trying to decorate my place into a nice little living space for myself but at the same time, i didnt wanna spend too much...who knows where i will be in a few months time *wink*....but i enjoyed the process of trying to make it homely...during the typhoon night on Tuesday, i ran to a nearby shop to purchase my very own shelf and carried it back with me in the rain and wind...it was SOOO heavy and the salesgal didnt tie the rope tight enough around the package that my heavy parcel dropped on the ground when i ran..luckily i didnt keep anyone~~~it was nice to DIY during the night of typhoon..while the rain was splashing against my window and wind banging on the doors and windows...i love the weather...:p

magic

Like Jenn said, our trip to melbourne wasnt the type of trip that was properly planned before we went...it was just based on our mood...one moment, we felt like going skiing and agreed to wake up at 5am in the morning, and when we did the next day, someone didnt felt like going and we just went bek to sleep..well..it was just spontaneous ^^ went to yarra valley one day just to get out of the city...it turned out to be a great escape...we saw sheeps on our way...we saw grassland..acre and acre of them...mountains, blue sky with alot of clouds of different shapes...it was just like a place without problem....1 hr later, we arrived at a vineyard...chandon as jenn called it (i just cant recall the name ^^) here, hel said they served great food...yup, they did...we tested all kinds of wine and until we were dizzy, we ordered food..and lots of them....here they were:

NOW YOU SEE

NOW YOU DON'T (Reason being: they were attacked by 5 hungry ppl :p)

*innocent*

I love this pic...it was so funny and adorable...poor kitty being sat on by such a big puppy :p the puppy must be enjoying the "cushion" underneath...hahahah....ooh, i just felt like cuddling them...how adorable :p mayb i should sit on jennifer next time...:p

DISASTER

this is the picture of my living room when i first moved in..so ina, now you know it was much messier before...hahaha..and compared to the condition in my previous video, isn't it much much neater? hehehehe... I made this computer table with my own bare hands...gosh, sometimes i think im a genius :p *BLUSH* see the box in front? it used to be my "chair" when i first moved in...how sad..now i got a simple chair...nothing fancy...but hopefully when im sure of my destiny, i will invest in better things...

my new apartment

moved in TWO weeks ago...i quite like this place..eventhough it is far, it's quite spacious compared to the apartments i stayed in before....the funny thing is, i stayed further and further away from the city as time passed by...when i first came, i stayed in HK island...then i moved to kowloon area and now, i live in new territorries...my new place is close to airport..which makes my "work"easier now whenever i have to make business trips...hehehe...i feel happy staying here eventhough it's far...at least when i wake up in the morning, i can see mountain...i cant believe i have this view in HK...hehehehe... another good thing is, i have a very caring security guard...who will always ask me if i have eaten, whether i will work late and whether i will come home late...aaahhh....so fatherly...hahaha..i bought him a bar of delicious chocolate from US...how nice am i? :) here's a picture of the view from my place and a video clip of my place...enjoy~~~~
