Sunday, 31 Decemeber 2006(G)

Last day of the year 2006. A good time to summarize everything that i have gone through this year. Overall i must say that i had a very good year. Finally made my class know my existence(hee) and also went to hong kong, for the first time in my life , with my campmates and had a memorable time there. All the ups and downs in this year has only made me stronger than i can ever be. Joined a few camps this year, no regrets in them, had more fun than i had expected. All in all i just hope that the coming year would either be better or the same as this year.

Anyway that aside, the main bulk of my this post should be about my trip to hong kong!!!!Was a great and fun 7 days i must say. Firstly the weather in hongkong is simply perfect! For starters, there isn;t any rain for the whole 7 days. and the temperature is a nice 16 degrees which feels like being in an aircon room permanently. The people in hongkong are also very very gracious. They sure keep to the right side of the escalator allowing people who are in a hurry to go by the left side. Their food serving in hong kong is also very very big. And considering the amount of meals i have per day while i am at hongkong, i m just gaining fat like nobody business. Something interesting about hongkong is that their shopping centre escalator can sometimes just go up by 2 levels instead of the usual one. Rollar coaster rides can also be found within the shopping centre. In hong kong their fastfood restaurants are much nicer than those in singapore and when i talk about fast food restaurants i m not refering to mac or bk or kfc.. rather its those that are not found in singapore. The toilets(or lavatory as its called in hong kong) in hong kong is also very different from that in singapore. Firstly almost 90% of the toilets uses automated water dispenser be it for the urinal or taps. And they always provide paper towels to dry your hand. Something interesting i also saw in hongkong is that they also provide the toilet seat cleaning solution for ur usage in the toilets.

In the period of 7 days, i visited ShenZhen, Macau , Disneyland and many different streets of hong kong like Fa Yuen Street and Temple street and many others. To record done what i have done throughout the 7 days would take a lot of space and time and may not even be able to express what i felt and what happened. In summary, i would say its more than fun, its memorable u need to personally go and experience it yourself to really know what i meant. At the end, I would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to Yaocong for inviting me to hongkong, and Ziyuan and Ben to share this experience with me. Happy New Year!
