went to Carrefour with Joanne and Mandy today to do some grocery shopping, as usual we bought tonnes of stuffs and we even bring our suitcases along liao, but still its not enough, went to wait at the bus stop for the bus back, met an french old lady there, was having a nice chat with her, pretty surprised that i kind of understand what she was speaking even though she is speaking in french, probably because she speaks it real slow but a pity i wish i knew more french then i would have been able to really conversate with her cos i dun really know how to answer her back... she said she has been to hk four times already, thats a lot!!
and then another group of Chinese came over to wait at the bus stop too, and when the bus arrived all of us got on, after 3 or 4 stops, and ass it was approaching another stop, i caught sight of two bus ticket inspector at the stop waiting to get onto our bus to check our tickets. Apparently, I wasn't the only one with sharp eyes because the group of Chinese practically jumped from their seats and plurged towards the machine to get their bus tickets validated for the trip, and two of them even have to leap towards the bus driver to buy their tickets... even so, the inspectors caught two of them....
At that moment, my friends and I just wish we werent on the same bus as them, its just humiliating, I was pretty angry with them, its people like these who are like the few black sheeps among the white sheeps that will give others the impression that we Chinese are sneaky and love to cheat on small things, gives them the impression that we dun have intergity, we are dishonest, we cant be trusted judging from simple things, thats the way all the passengers will look at us, they wun see that the 3 of us Chinese as well were playing by the law...
disappointed.angry.sad.

christmas eve today...
glad to go out with Tracy, Kitty, Fanni and Freeman, it has been a long time la... with them i always feel so warm arh...
kitty was so smart to have bought the tickets for the curse of the golden flower beforehand...erm didnt have high expectations of that show after hearing the feedback from joanna and kah hui so wasnt much of a disappointment for me.. the most funny thing was that there was this auntie at the back who said that the stuff that they put on their head was like the christmas flower or misotoe.. (u will understand if u watched that movie) my frens n i tried so hard to contain our laughter...
then went to walk about and in search of a place for dinner.. Kitty suggested Spanish food and brought us to El Cid ... but cos it is christmas eve larhs, then the restaurant say there is a minimum spending of HKD350 per HEAD, wth. we settled for a jap restaurant and the ramen was just as nice, our total bill was not even HKD350 lorz...
found a starbucks coffee and spent the next 3 hours there, sat down and talk and laughed.. haha and found out that freeman actually look a bit like 張敬軒...Orz... nice to be out with them, so warm and fun, and always good food.. There was a question that i have been burning to ask tracy for a long time but tonight she actually asked me, to my surprise ....
these few days heard about a lot of stuffs, felt that the way things turn out for some people are just so wasted, it shld have been better...

went to shatin shopping centre today with Erica and Janice... accompany Janice to Seiyu and bought a Keroro handphone stand for her piano teacher... dun understand why people like Keroro so much... when i see him all i can think of is a slimy frog.... how could anyone call this thing cute...
haha and Erica was saying that last time she tried to use the word "slimy" in her essay but cos the english teacher's english level is too low, she marked her as a spelling error and cancel the "y"... hahah and Erica went to argue with her saying that she is not trying to use the word "slim"... XDDD
after we send Janice off for her piano lesson, we went to dine at 風記避風堂... had great food there though and as usual, we were laughing like mad... i think Erica must find me hilarious becos there are so much Cantonese terms that i dunno and my chinese is so poor...
we walked through the christmas "tunnel" as we said we would and there is actually a Fish and Co in Hongkong, i think it is the only one ba...brings back happy memories cos i love the fish and chips that they serve, if i am not wrong there was once we ate at jurong point's fish and co...
Met Erica's fren also a disneymate part-timing at Marks and Spencer.. are all hk ppl so hardworking, keep on working, even my sis is juggling with a few tuition clients... makes me feel guilty ~~~
in search of telecom shops to check out the hp that Erica has her eyes on... i still believe it is 3380 not 3388, haha but dun wanna bet with u lehz... when u think of pretzels, what do u think of? for me, its auntie's anne... kinda scary the way our brain is structured....
