the many little things you all have missed : )

hey people, i believe many of you have started classes and by reading your blogs it seems that it sure has been one hell of a holiday for you and for me too : ) I miss you peeps, i truly do, but by communicating thru blogs and msn occassionally is definitely a good way to keep up all our spirits (especially mine..im lonely,believe me!) since im far far away from home.. *sigh* freedom? yeah.. i have them all but there really isn't anything much you can do here (in my little city on Menomonie). It's been a while since i last blogged about alot of things and i'm gonna try to make this the longest post i've ever posted : ) for all of you. I'm sure there alot of things you can't help but ponder righty right? So my first stop was Hong Kong, I'm in love with Hong Kong like really : ) my 9 days there had been awesome! Food was awesome too..i guess you'll really have to know where to go and at the same time to know what you really want to buy before you head out in Hong Kong, and the MTRs are so effecient they come every 3 minutes and of course there are the taxis, HK's local favorite LOL..it's very convenient but it can be really expensive in the long run. So i can't even remember where i shopped and stuff cause i've been places and went back again sometimes, but i do remember the first shopping trip was to SOGO and their supermarket (was literally filled with Japanese food).. and all the Sanrio stuff u can buy in Hong Kong, it's insane..plus the originals are somehow cheaper than what we can find in Malaysia, so in Hong Kong we have variety plus a better bargain, makes you wanna go over there huh? But it's true.. LOL! So i could imagine myself living in Hong Kong, it's bustling all the time but i guess it's nice when u live in the city of Hong Kong which is Central : ) it's ultimately the most convenient hub! but of course all these comes with a price, so if u are thinking of even leaving alone with a small apartment with 2 rooms, and if you dont even have a couple of million in your bank account then u don't even have to think about it LOL im serious, i was really shocked when i found out myself @"@ So there was Sogo, Times Square, Harbor City (which is next to the sea and ports) it was HUGE!! But mostly shopping complexes located in Central sells branded stuff, and for sure i dont need to name them, so normally my aunt would bring me to little allies and stuff, you'll be surprise what u can find there mwehehe! So it was maximum shopping and also not forgetting my food!! Below is actually juices, it was like half and half so it's watermelon and mango (it almost tasted like puree as it was ice blended) with little glutinous rice balls i like : ) awesome stuff! And of course! Never forgetting my Krispy Kreme when i got to Hong Kong to fulfill my curiousity, they didn't come cheap but nonetheless, they were good : ) they were RM6 each..and they were obviously a whole lot better than Dunkin, not so artifical : ) lol it's not that im being bias as i do not like DD, but seriously we should sign a petition and bring Krisp Kreme into KL..yumyum! my favorite was the Cappucino one which is the one on the top right : ) Heavenly..

So..after a couple of days, Monday my family and i with my mm..Granduncle and Grandaunt headed to Shenzhen, CHINA to my dad's cousins house. Therefore the picture below is where i lived for one night, and my dad's cousin married a Mainland Chinese lady so that explains why he lives there. We sat a train across the border which took approx 45mins and we headed to the condo, then to eat, and then to shopping. I have to say the things in China now don't come cheap, they're about the same price as the ones in Hong Kong and basically i didnt buy anything at all! I prefered shopping in Hong Kong like a thousand times better so, we were there only for a night and at night we had dinner, and for the first time in my life..i had baby lobsters..good to see but there were barely anything to eat LOL! and it's shell was so hard to peel..nyeh! Therefore, the next morning we headed back to Hong Kong I LIKE! and since my aunt was also arriving the same day (Tuesday) we waited till she came to my uncle's place before we headed out again cause she's my ultimate shopping tour guide : ) My uncle somehow look forward to me working in HK in the future, but it's obvious that i have to buff up and take Mandarin classes, there's a price to pay for everything!

So this is a glimpse of Hong Kong at night from the ferry i took back to Cental : ) Unfortunately it wasn't very clear due to the fact that it was my dear phone camera which was only 2 mega pixels, so this was the end results..nyeh!

And these are the tall buildings of Hong Kong, i think it was near Prince Rd or someting like that..

So that was Hong Kong, the shopping, the food and the everlasting fun : ) mwehehe i heart HK. And thus i ended leaving for america a couple of kilograms heavier : ) Smiles of Joy..until Friday came =,( mmmhmm..it was time to leave for America..well i was so overwhelmed with my emotions, i just sort of didnt know what to feel..i was without a doubt sad.. and at the same time i knew i had to do it, i had no choice and no turning back and i told myself that this is life afterall, we can't keep living in the safety of the shell without hatching, it's just not possible..and there i was at the aiport... my dad had to leave first cause he was going off 2 hours earlier than we were..and we had a short lunch at the restaurant, and as soon as we were done there, my dad had to go into the departure hall.. i HATE departure halls dammit! since my daddy was in a rush, we didn't really have a chance to say goodbye =,( which make things even more depressing..he had to go and i knew he had to,but i can help but shed some tears.. and then soon he just walked over to the hall, turned back and uttered a word 'bye', but he did text us before he flew off which made me cry even more baaaaaahhhhhh! u know it's not like i want to, i just cant help it.. so there my daddy flew off.. and we left to go to the SkyMall which was located next to the airport..so there we were walking abit and then eventually getting something to eat before my brother's and i turn to go to the departure hall.. and as we were done, we walked and walked and walked.. without having much conversations between my mum, aunt, my brother and i. Let's disregard my brother, he's pretty much emotionless and cant emphatise with people for goodness sake..soooo as i walked and as i got nearer to the departure hall i just knew i had to go, and obviously i cried la right! Hugged my mom and my aunt and soon we were off... RAWR! i sobbed abit before it was my turn at the immigration..soooo... and then we were off! *emo-ness*
This was a picture taken before my flight took off to Chicago..

So we flew and flew and flew and at about 9pm we were flying pass Japan : ) mweee..and we flew..it was a 15 hour flight, and obviously it wasn't pleasant at all..it was like wake sleep wake sleep sleep wake eat..u get it? so yeap and we were scheduled to touch down in Chicago at about 6.35pm and thus our next connecting flight to Minneapolis was 10.30pm, so we had some time..we got off immigration and stuff, left out baggages to check in again and rushed to another terminal for out connecting flight..and we were SMART, we didnt look up which gate we were suppose to go to but since all United airlines flight were in terminal 1, we just headed to terminal 1 and checked out what gate we were suppose to be at..to my horror, and after reading it like 5 times..i realised my flight to minneapolis was CANCELLED! it wasn't even delayed..it was CANCELLED..i was horrified and frustrated and so angry, like as tho i was about to blow..rawr! So my brother and i enquired an assistant from the check in counters and we were told that out flight had some mechanical problems.. what an experience right? Nothing beats the enriching experience flying to america *heh, sarcasm* so yeah..we were then rebooked for the 6.55am flight the next day and we were then relocated to Hyatt Regency in Ohare,Chicago.. so obviously it was a free room.. just when i txted my parents that i hv arrived in Chicago, and was about to txt them again as i reach Minneapolis...*geram* and i was then yet again frantically txting..i had a bigger concern then! What happens to the room i have booked in Minneapolis with Marriot, as stated on the terms and conditiond..i had to pay cause it was too last minute to cancel..RAWR! And u know how it feels when u get stranded like this, without ur clothes nor ur necessaties..it's utterly depressing..and wen i got to hyatt..i had to call marriot..and that call which last barely 2 mins cost my brother a whooping $10.38..for some reason.. so yes people this was my adventure : ) interesting, no? I shall update my days in University the next time as my room has no connection mweee till then : ) take care you people..
