Kowloon Penisular & New Territories Tour


can u see the dark figure standing in the middle (a bit dark har paiseh haha).. she’s Aunt Rebecca, the tour guide for this bus.. if u can see that the bus has got 2 and 3 sits on the sides. The aisle is really squeezing man! Aniwae, Rebecca can talk NON STOP on the bus during all the trips to the next destination!


This is Wetland Park somewhere in the New Territories… Its really boring.. It’s something like our Sungei Buloh but all man-made (doesn’t it sounds like sg style haha) aniwae the “star” of this park is a crocodile called 贝贝, honoured the title “ HONG KONG CELEBRITY” and he just hide himself when we were there!!!



The famous 黄大仙 Temple.. was really smoky and super crowded!!!


And finally a peaceful nunnery. (Chi Lin Nunnery)
guess we just looked like tourists with the stickers on!! haha!!

yUmMy fOoD...


This is how my shelf looks like now haha!! Snacks stock up!! Hope this will not make Liwen drool hahaha…

Me and SJ’s 1st combined force! 1st attempt at fried been hoon! I rem we were so excited and I even called my mum to ask her how can I cut the broccoli haha!! Looks good right! Thanks to our F&N skills too! haha.. act SJ accidentally spilt too much rosemary inside haha and she ask me to shut up when I kept nagging haha.. SJ sorry to nag a bit haha but on the whole it’s really v tasty!!


...and our first attempt at green bean soup and it turned out to be great!! 有妈妈的味道 ok!! haha!


SJ’s signatured omelet!


This is one of the lastest “home cooked” meals haha.. it was a few days before the CNY. A combined forces by Nian Long, JC and me at Nian Long’s hall haha! I cooked the rice noodles and Nian Long act fried some chicken fillets that he had marinated and luncheon meat and JC did the dishes!! =)

V-Day Surprise!!!


I almost forgotten that me and SJ act bought Kinder Surprise for the guys on VDAE!!! namely JC, JF, Ah Rain and An Zai Xu haha.. This is my surprise.. so not cute! =(




I really have to thank dear dear for the surprise man! Haha.. and of course JC and SJ!! This is how the story goes: on 7th feb, a Wednesday, I was supposed to go down to Jordan, which is near Mongkok to collect Singapore Milo (the 3in1 milo here sux) from my cousin. So I was telling JC that I was lazy to go out and whether I should do it on the next day. After much talking, JC agreed to go down with me on Thursday after our lesson, but provided that we can reach my hall by 2.30pm cos he wanna visit SJ’s room and her roomie, Katherine, will be back at around 2.30pm and so it’s not v good to visit her when Kat is back la. So on Thursday, we went down to Jordan, take my Milo and had a v nice Tim Sum lunch there and got back to my hall before 2.30pm. we hanged around at SJ’s pantry till 5 plus before someone called JC. He pushed phone to SJ and insisted that she talk to the person. I was like huh? what’s happening? The funniest thing is that I didn’t even realize that Kat isn’t back yet. So after hanging up, SJ asked me to go down to the reception with JC. I asked her “go down for what?” and she just said “just go down then u’ll noe le.” so I went down with JC and I didn’t noe who to look for until I saw this man holding a bag of flowers haha.

This can only be found in Hong Kong Island (香港岛)...


...it is call “Deng Deng” in Cantonese.. which refers to the sound made by the tram when it moves. It’s really interesting cos u have to board from the back and alight from the front exit where the driver is. u pay only when u alight and it’s really cheap! Cost around hkd 2, which is sgd 40 cents!



The very famous 许留山… Famous for their Mango desserts!! And I love their 小丸子, which is act glutinous rice ball and is super chewy!!! I love it man! Can anyone tell me how to resist such nice desserts?? Haha.. it’s like u’ll wanna some desserts everytime after dinner.. there are so many desserts stalls around. And the egg tarts here are all very nice too!!!



Inside the MTR...



At 上環 MTR Station, just next stop to 中環.



saw Takeshi when I was in Causeway Bay. SHUAI!!!

Orientation Day


(From R to L) The one presenting is Justin. Followed by Jocelyn, Euquin and Andrea.



This act happened more than a month ago le haha.. Aniwae it was really fun cos it’s when we (NUS) met the SMU clique! Each country’s students are given a big drawing board like this to draw and to introduce our country to the rest of the students. So we drew: Small island surrounded by sea, a fine city very near our dearest neighbour, with our beloved PAP and Merlion, big sun throughout the year. The presenting is then left to the SMUs, supposedly good at presenting! Haha. So when they mentioned that it’s v cold here in HK, there was this ang mo commented that “oh it’s supposed to be a hot vacation for us!” We were like what the hell!!
