a bigger step...

to being away from my boy.

Spent 3000HKD today at Ikea, all for my new 'pad' in Mongkok - which means a decision to stay on in HK longer... well, at least 6 mths as that's my rental lease agreement.

It's only my 4th month here but it feels like forever that we have been apart. It feels silly sometimes, that we have been doing all this long-distance right from the start till now - a whole 2 years. I have another 20mths of my contract to go... can I really take it for that long? Why did I choose this path that causes us to be apart for like 95% of a year...?

Anyway, too late to turn back now - I can only make the best of my time here right?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
wish I could sleep but I miss you too much

didn't tase that great though....

cold & tired

and off again tomorrow to Shanghai... there goes another weekend for me. urgh. I do not get back any weekends that are spent on business trips!!!!

no sushi...

and 1 slice of cho toro was all the sashimi I had in Tokyo.
This was one stressful buying trip where everything seemed to go wrong. Anyway... Got back into HK 1030pm last night but a whole chain of events made me get home only just before midnight. Long long day.... 8.30pm already and I dunno how long more it's going to be.
=S

aaaaeeeeeooooooooaaaaoooo

I am going to Tokyo next week for a buying trip!
Soooooo excited!!!
My first trip out of HK/China for work.
Dave says I cant be impulsive and buy everything I like.
hmmm....
Will go sleep on that.

"find booty"

the London cat that I still miss...

my love is pink and...

not commercial, that's why my dear Dave made me a lovely pink pink card! It's got my favourite flower on it too. *grin* Thank you dear labbit!

'eating snake'

CNY went past in a blur.
ate too much... there's no other place that can replace all the food that I so love back home.
anyway now typing this on my wireless network at home!
yeah!!!!
erm erm...
nothing to write about anymore as I have a boring life.
work-sleep-work-shop-sleep-sleep-work-shop

in the meantime for those of you who are bored at work, have fun skiving on this!

that's me for now...

finally got a tiny moment off work to rush to the hairdresser's for a 'aubergine' colourjob + trim.

with love from hong kong

random random photos.. hope you all had a great time ushering in the new year! meanwhile, I will go about trying to loose some weight.

damn bug evolved...

into Gastroenteritis - or so called 'stomach flu'. It sure was no fun running to the toilet like 15 times in 1 day and even through the night. urgh. I swear i didn't eat anything wrong!! Crawled to the doctors in the end and got antibiotics. I hope it goes away fast fast fast!!! If not there goes all my X'mas parties! *boo hoo*

damn bug

this is a totally random entry:

think blogging is going to be a weekly thing. That's actually when i have time to sit down and ignore work for a few minutes... This week we had our company xmas dinner, then a bunch of us went out for beer after... then i caught some kinda bug that made me throw up and bend over double with pain in the tummy (hk ppl say it's a cold & that i am not used to hk) Didnt see a doctor as i dont like to but did you know that as a foreigner in HK, you pay like 3 times more than the locals if you go to a GP!

So anyway just read my last Sat's entry and hey, it's Sat again and it's 6.07pm already.
what should i do after work... *hmmmm*
shop? eat? go home to sleep?

spotted a 3mth old cat with 2 different color eyes.. HKD2900!! think i will just adopt one if i really feel the urge to have a cat. *sigh* wonder how tiger & booty are...

Sat

Supposed to work from 9 - 1.
It's 5 now and i'm still here typing this.
I don't feel like shopping.
I just want to go somewhere, be alone and watch people walk by.
I just want to blend into the surroundings.
I just want to not exist for a moment.

So that I can ignore what people say.
So that I can ignore what people do.

Maybe I just cannot face reality.
Or maybe some people are just driving me up the wall.

2309hours

leaving office now....

dead dog

I think it's the first time ever that I have neglected my blog for so long.
I really am that busy... really.
I work from 9am - 10pm... 8.30 on a goodday that comes once a blue moon.
So there... after having dinner at 11.30pm for 1 week straight, I have gone all pear shape.
=(
so there...
i work long hours
put on weight eating late dinners
only see hong kong city once a week
leave behind my other half + a cuddly cat

makes it so hard to see how this job is worth it
