Holidays in Hong Kong > Day 1 / Sunday, December 10, 2006
I woke up to the annoying polyphonic of YMCA, closed it and then went back to sleep z_Z. Olivia had to go to Wan Chai today to get her HKID card done, so we had to wake up early. It feels good to be back in Hong Kong, and to move slowly at my own pace, watching all those busy Hongkies rush past me. Everything works faster in Hong Kong; trains go faster, even escalators go faster. After dropping Olivia off at the Immigration Tower, I went to Lok Fu to wait for the two boys. At the station I found a manga store with all of Death Note and the rest of Hunter X Hunter @_@
Because Olivia wasn't with us, we went to smaller shopping centres first, Tai Koo. Chris wanted to get his phone first thing but I didn't want to take them to the street markets yet. During the walk around Tai Koo, I started getting a really bad stomachache, until I gave up and went home to take medicine, to find we had a box of Panadol but no Panadol inside, so I just sat and watched television. Sitting in a ball really does help. My dad came home to get something and got me some medicine, also showing me there was Panadol in the medicine cupboard, I was just blind ^^". The three of us spent the next few hours playing Nintendo DS and Neopets. Maiki is a maths freak (Albie, he beat your times on maths o.o) But I beat him on High and Low ^__^.
After an intense nagging session I agreed to take them to Mong Kok tomorrow, and we would go to the electronics street right now. On the MTR the three of us played Paper, Scissor, Rock and thumbwars all the way to Mong Kok - yes we were really bored. We picked up Olivia along the way, she had been shopping ahead of time at Mong Kok with her parents and they had bought a whole load of stuff.
At Aplieu Street, Chris immediately began his search for the cheapest price on his phone, and soon I was getting extremely bored. Chris bought his phone at 8:30, when we should have nearly finished dinner, and we couldn't find a DS for Maiki. We went to Festival Walk for dinner (KFC). They found a gaming shop that sold DSs, and said they would go back and get it after eating, but it was closed by the time they got back. Aunty Wendy took them back home and Olivia and I took the MTR home. On the way, we went high for no reason and started making up stupid games and talking/laughing really loudly. The people around us seemed embarrassed but we were having too much fun to care. At first we were playing Paper, Scissor, Rock, and then we played this game where one person had to slap the back of the other persons hand, and the other person had to try not get hit, a reflex game. Then we upgraded the game to waving our hands madly around... AND it was 11:15 by the time we got home, good thing my dad doesn't worry as much as my mum.
