Once upon a sock...

{PREPOST}

Hi guys, I have survived from this trip which was less boring than I anticipated to be. I have to give credits to all weird encounters and challenging pekcek moments and also my phone that supported me very much by providing entertainment to me, aka, allowing me to zipai everywhere i go.
Special thanks to my bag that makes it inconvenient for me to take out my wallet so I basically didnt spend much. I was given 1000HKD which is equivalent to 160 Singapore dollars but then I only spend 500HKD.
Also, I have to express my thanks to the many wifi hotspots around Hongkong and Macau trip that allows me to contact my frenz/ or more like spamming my frenz one sidedly. Spamming on Instagram is fun too. Too bad I cannot Instavid because my phone doesnt have that much space.
I would also like to thank my ownself for being very diligent carrying my heavy laptop around, which allows me to Dota almost every night till I am happy.
That, is what makes this trip more destressing, and relaxing for me. The purpose of a trip is to gain experience, and relax urself , mind and soul blah blah right?
In addition to note, after coming back from the trip, I conclude that vegetarian food there nicer than non vegetarian food. Really. It is more appetizing.
And, I was wishing that I will gain better skin complexion after I come back. Apparently not. But I do have less blackheads though.
Another thing to note is that I lost 1 kg.
How? I dunno.
And a note to Kangchyi, after reading your blogpost I realise that my hongkong trip has alot ALOT of similarities to yall trip. Yea, just so in case u say i copy u.

Okay. Buckle your seatbelts. The trip recap starts now.

[[DAY 0]]

Apparently you cannot count this as Day 1 because I am still in Singapore. In the morning I went for SM training but had to leave early to catch my flight at 6 plus. So here I am. At Changi Airport. Taking photos with all the Spongebob Squarepants theme decorations.

These are my picks from my photo stash. I have decided to DISCLUDE my sister's face in case she nags and blackmails me again. IT is Tad dangerous to post her photos.

Well this squidbert photo have gotten me quite alot of likes on FB than any other photo, and my captions says Bye Peeps, Im flying. And Im suspicious that everyone likes it pretty much that I am flying. AWAY. FROM U GUYS. Hmmmm. just kidding. I know everyone likes me very much.

I have to explain this photo a little. It looks rather odd. But then doing standard posing photos arent very memorable when you are spending money to go overseas. I decided to grab the nose because it is taller tham me. #nologic

Well, I dun have fat hands to imitate MR Krabby. But this pretty much is my best imitation. Take photo for wad? to Kill time in airport duh.

Special thing to note: we secretly bought two cup noodles to hongkong. SHHHHHH.

and so we fly.

It is the Xmas season. Which means everywhere will have a xmas tree. Which means that you have to take photos.

This is the Xmas tree located at the centre of the HK airport. uh no special meaning. Just another reason to Zipai and act high.

So I went to scout for data prepaid card and this cues me to write about my first pekcek incident.

#1Pekcek

Well, I have long heard about the less than friendly service in Hongkong. So I thought I was prepared for it. Not that I am complaining or anything and I do admire their fast pace fast speed high efficiency way of doing stuff. I went to 7 eleven to ask for details about the data card and they showed it to me and explained to me in Cantonese. -.- I tried to reply in English, and asked more questions but she juz point to me on the card and look like I am blocking the queue for the cashier.Oh well I am. But it is neccessary ya. I asked more questions and she gave me poker face. I felt so helpless. LOL. I feel pekcek because i am so helpless. So I return her the card and walk to find my dad to discuss my ignorance. Then i come back again. Tried using Chinese this time to another girl and she speaks minimal Chinese and mixed in cantonese so I was like WTF in my mind. I cant understand u. In the end I bought it. and uh shant explain details. If you guys need me to explain how to use the prepaid card pls contact me. LOL. I feel like a genius figuring everything out.

It is 80hkd.

Then we cab to our hotel >> Royal View Hotel at Tsuen Wan, as recommended by Jiayi. It is not bad. Just abit inaccessible. But then we get great sea view and have shuttle bus to town.

Here comes #2Pekcek

We told the taxi driver our destination name but he didnt even look at us. I almost tot he was deaf.

How would I know u know that our destination is conveyed to u if you dun look like u know?

Poker face.

Okay

Week 10

OMG. SHO FAST.

I cant even recap what I did for week 7. Oh. It was my midterms week.

Had to chiong AW assignment two for Friday.

But Tues I had my TWC elevator pitch which I did pretty badly. I was frozen solid and just staring straight ahead and look like piece of blockwood for 60 seconds.

Now I realise I had the tendency to stumble at my last sentence when I end off my presentation. Future Sock please take note.

What else happened on week 7?

Did my First Stats test...And I failed badly.( Gotten 11 / 30 ) I have to admit that I didnt do the practice questions. :(

On Friday I chionged my AW out but i just realised that I did not cite my sources correctly and list my references wrongly ( I did not put it in alphabetically). :(

Then Friday night I went to Basement to support Ern for a little while for the Soundfoundry Unplugged event and shunbian had dinner before proceeding to mug for Biz law.

The very next day I had my biz law exam which I feel that I confirm fail damn badly because I did it worse then I did for stats. Didnt have a final proper conclusion :(

But I still celebrated the end of biz law exam with Dino and Song at Sushi Express.

Then before I knew it, Recess week came.

Monday was supposedly to be Kscope outing day. But ended up to be just Me , Dino, Gm, Song, Weihan eating at PS, Ambush. ( Future sock please do not go there again)

Then at night it was the BE BASH, where my booth was supposedly the Ice popsicle booth but in the end the drinks did not manage to freeze :( Still, the Bash for fun because of the Wii Games and Free photos.

I didnt get to have my chance to go through proper induction because I didnt get called up to receive my BE sticker :(

( The amount of :( in this post is really...)

Still , Pres sweetly personally get me the sticker haahaaha. :)

Then the next few days was hiong.

Tues I had AS group meeting...followed by TWC meeting followed by EnB Welfare day.

We went to Fish n CO for dinner which in the end costs me 2.50 dollars only. YAY.

Then I made two new friends who are also in Asoc and one of them stays near me YAY

Then the training was at ACC which was quite interesting.(the amount of then in the post is really...)

Even though it seems that EnB may only appeal to guys or sth. but the amount of girls in EnB is really alot. At least 10 girls in the room.

Okcanz

The next day I had AS study group meeting in which I got a cold. Was feeling like a snowman the whole day and I practically just slept at the Mr bean tables for 3 hours or sth before my biz law meeting. I was almost unconscious during the meeting :(

Turns out that I had fever...38.4 degrees Celsius. So my twc ppl kindly shifted the meeting to saturday and I slept throughout the whole day on thurs and force out of my perspiration then my temperature just keep falling all the way......to 34.9 IMMA Vampire.

On friday i had my biz law group meeting againz.then at night went over to Tax alumni night to steal food.

On sat we had our TWC meeting againz.. after that rush to NUSCO concert to have some fun time with GOOD OLD FRENZ. (KC, YY, Jane, XF, Yuqi, SH) after that rush back to Prinsep street to help out ( not sure if i did helped). It was quite interesting... my face got cramped from smiling too much.

End off recess week

Then it was week 10.

Even though tues was hari raya, I had two group meetings until damn late. Biz law and TWC.

Friday had another round of meetings until damn late again. Reach home at 12am. Terrible sia.

Saturday was the day where Running Man came. T.T But I had to complete two presentations.

At night we had intensive AS discussion (only them la. I was trying my best to complete my part) We got invited to eat the free buffet.

This sums up my week 10. It feels good to finish two presentations at one go actually. My groupmates were still very kind to understand my stupid situation of having to rush between two meetings....:P

Thanks Peeps!!!!!! <3333
