That's it.... This will be my last entry...and it will end my stay in Hong Kong!

Soon I will close the blog once the new one is up and running

(P.S: I am tooo lazy to load the remaining pictures)

I remember I entered the very first day....not really feeling sad that I am leaving Singapore, maybe because I had my good friends with me then... I did not know what to expect. But I knew that I will have newfound freedom, at least for the next 5 mth without mum and sis breathing down my neck to do the housework or to even to be home by 12 midnight!

The first few days in Hong Kong, I went around with my best friend and his hubby...it was fun especially when they had other friends around! The first few days was great...but I was freezing in HK....tempreature went real low especially in the night!

When Eileen left, I recall being sad, caused now I am really all on my own, all my friends are back in Singapore and the remaining friends I had were the other two gals whom I know from SMU on this exchange trip....Joey (whom was my roomie) and Yuting who is staying a level below me.. Joey and myself was staying at level 13 while she is staying at level 12.

Joey is my beautiful roomie, whom lack no suitors! She often make me giggle like a mad gal! I think I have learnt a lot from her.... from dressing myself up to...speaking up for your own right! She is a gal whom speaks what she thinks and is not afraid of people challenaging her statement!

She showed me that...fashion comes in many different form! I really hope she would be able to find someone whom will love her and not hurt her! Love you lotsa babe!

Yuting is the another Singaporean.... this smart gal also lack no suitors...from koreans to europeans to chinese.... Too bad this gal is taken! Overtime, after mixing around with us too much....she had also learn the art of dressing up and looking different. This gal has a goal in life and I wish you all the best! I hope you will be able to achieve whatever you had set out for babe!

In fact, the 3 of us had very different taste when it comes to clothes and stuff! Still we really enjoyed each other company and constantly hang out together often! Life would have been sooo different without them around!

PolyU exchange (AECO) I would say they were great, they had been very helpful in helping the exchange students and had a lot of program for us, the exchange students...being as usual super entu about all the events that were organised, I tried my very best to join....City Orienteering was the first few event that ocurred...It was fun, I would say and we had a lot of fun knowing new people and making new friendship.

Following that, we had a city tour of HK....We went to the Convention Center, we went up to The Peak and we went to the Repulse Bay....the usual must visit places of Hong Kong.

All has a lot of actitivities as well, from dancing classes to dumpling classes to cooking competition and sports competitions. I stayed in CHENGDE, which is level 13 (for the girls) and level 14 (for he boys). I remember the first day when my hall committee members came knocking on our door, telling us to vote for them to be his year com. members. ROSA was the gal who spoke up once they realise that we actually speaks english! Let see what are some of the events which I have participated sooo far!

Maybe I was tooo free....recalling I really took part in ~ Single party, Cooking competition, Etiquette Dinning, Hip Hop Dance class, Stars Gazing, Kickboxing class, Heritage Tours, Volleyball competition, Badminton competition, Hotpot~Opening Dinner, Examination Dinner, High Table dinner.... That shouldbe about it.....

The VolleyBall gals..

It was fun playing volleyball in HK, especially when the weather is cold, you would not even get to sweat..in fact I always had a hard time starting the game cause I was freezing whenever we start playing in the court...Though not very pro...still very fun ...and we always get free dessert from our tutor...super nice women!

The Badminton Group

Cooking Competition

The Dumpling night!

I had also made a lot of friends on this trip, people whom I really treasured a lot and hope that we could continue to maintain our relationship even if we are sooo far away....Mainly my good friends were people from HK....do not asked me why...maybe cause I could learn cantonese from them... but still I love them lotsa, though some I kinda regret knowing them too late, only when I was about to leave, giving me no chance to know them better!

Overall, my Hong Kong trip had been fun...though I had my ups and my worries when I was there....I think an independent life is indeed I am consantly in search of...still at the end of the day occasionally you would miss home...but skype help me fill in the gap.

Living in hall had been fun for me tooo...how I wish I could be in their committee, getting invloved in all of their planning and excuting of their events... I love the idea that i had a gym, swimming pool, pool room and dance room all in 1 building.... good for a lazy person like to me to and exercise...and relax!! I really enjoy my only hostel life in SMU @ Poly...

For my 4 year in Uni, this had been one of my phase of my life!! I want to thank all my friends, for making my life in PolyU wonderful.....and memorable!!

WIthout you guys...my life would not have been sooo colourful and happy....

THANKS!...This will be a phase in which I will never forget!
