Chinese new year is here
year of the tiger beckons
which means just one more year to the year of the rabbit
that means turning 24 in 2011 and nearing the end of uni
and yet at this point in time i still do not know what i want to do yet
some things have popped into my mind
but the drawbacks that such jobs require shift work and you do not have fixed day offs
im talking about government agencies
and NO it isnt The beloved SAF
considering options like ICA and police force but not as a uniformed officer
more like those that investigate corporate crime
commercial affairs department
but then again nothing solid
yet my poor eyesight and sedentary lifestyle may pose obstacles
ideally something related to finance/econs/business if not im willing to explore other options
cny was spent overseas for the first time that i can remember
last friday flew off to hong kong
had dinner with my grandmother and my uncles from my mother sides
the weather in hong kong is perfect for walking around 14 degrees whole day feels like total air conditioning
sat went to do some shopping at ladies market
got a sling bag to replace my old ageing bag
got a another led torch
after that off to my cousins house
while my mum and relatives helped themselves to mahjong
i was messing with my cousins ps3
played some golf game that was in japanese
luckily can still read basic jap
then tried call of duty 4
i must say cod4 really is an awesome game
it deserves all the praise it has received from the gaming community
in the night headed off for reunion dinner with relatives from my fathers side
had a rather too full dinner
nice food
but not good for waistline
cny day 1 went visiting then in the evening headed over to macu
spent the next 2 days in macau eating too much
and playing slot machines at the casinos
the next few days will be detoxicing days less heavy meals
oh i managed to try out hong kongs bubble tea before heading over to macau
12 hk dollars snags you a large cup of taiwanese style bubble tea ahhhhhhhhhh
i cant belive i think about bubbletea even though im in another country
they should award me with loyalty points system, wait that sort of exists back in aussie already
off to bed to recharge woke up at 5 am this morning
had to rush from macau back to hong kong to catch 9 am flight
really tight 530 leave casino
6am leave macu
7 am reach hong kong
740 reach airport for check in
1:24:00 AM
