I am about to have a birthday in another new country – Canada. How exciting! Since Canada has a different voltage to Hong Kong, I had to get rid of a lot of electronics and would need to buy them again, so I have those on my list along with beauty products and winter wear […]
Polin
Dearest Gentle Readers, I have a new ship. It’s POLIN – or what the Bridgerton season 3 couple Penelope and Colin is known as. Now I’ve shipped a lot of fiction couples in history, but this is probably the one I relate to the most because I am like Penelope in a few ways: not […]
Covid Finally Caught Me
After four years of dodging Covid-19 like Neo dodged bullets in The Matrix, it finally caught me this month. In Boracay, of all places. I was in vacation in Boracay with family, and on my last day there (June 11) I got a sore throat. I even asked for honey from the hotel breakfast buffet […]
Confessions of a Forty-Something F##k Up {Book Review}
I am so proud of myself for finally managing to finish reading a book after who knows how long. I did a whole post about how this is a problem for a lot of former bookworms nowadays because our attention was stolen. I actually came across the book at a shop called Bookazine in Central. […]
Chinese New Year 2024
Happy Lunar New Year! I didn’t get to see any dragon dances or fireworks, though I did hear them from my flat. They went on for 23 minutes. I did capture the beautiful decorations on Lee Tung Avenue, though. They look so much more beautiful at night. I am so happy about how the photo […]
Galentines Date @ Carna Hong Kong
I had a Galentines date at Carna by Dario Cecchini with my gal pals May and Beulah on the night of Chinese New Year. Technically it could have been called a CNY celebration as well, but it wasn’t at a Chinese restaurant, so it doesn’t seem quite right. And besides, May and I had come […]
New Year, New Hair Colour @ JT Hair Salon
My friend May randomly discovered a really affordable hair salon all the way at Yuen Long called JT Hair Salon. She likes their service and price, so when she said she was going back to get her hair colour redone, I asked to join her. We did it the Sunday just before Chinese New Year, […]
Kes in HK: Lua
Kes and her family were in Hong Kong to watch Messi play football over the weekend, so we had lunch on Saturday before they watched him. They were not able to buy tickets to the actual game, but just to the practice. They wanted to meet up at Causeway Bay, so I asked some friends […]
Myung Ga Korean Restaurant and Eyebar
My friend Ashley was craving for samgyupsal, so she, May, Precious and I had dinner at Myung Ga Korean Restaurant at the 27th floor of iSquare in Tsim Sha Tsui on Friday night. I thought I would get lost when trying to find it, but the mall was directly outside the MTR exit R. We […]
End of a Pen Era?
When I was a student, one of the highlights of my life was shopping for school supplies at a shop called Golden Bell before every start of a school term. Maybe that’s why until now, I get weirdly happy whenever I find myself in a stationery supply store or bookstore. That’s where I found myself […]
