买东西吃东西 - Day 2


To Lantau Island to see the Buddha. 

In case you are wondering, i'm a Christian (or rather free thinker in some ways) and i was only there because the 2 of them want to go and since i've never been there before, there was no harm going to look around :)






Took a 30mins Ferry ride 






It was too damn cold and too damn windy. I just had to eat something hot. 

And no regrets because I had the BEST glutinous rice here. THE BEST i'm not even kidding.


Right. I said it was too cold and it was partly because i wore shorts. I deserved it. Lol. But frankly speaking, i'm a shorts person so i have a lot of shorts at home.... I have nothing to wear for cold weather haha. I braved the cold in this outfit, i'm quite proud of myself  *pats self on back*




OOTD

Top: Bangkok
Bottom: Roxy in Gold Coast
Jacket: Topshop
Shoes: Pointer


A lot of dogs on this island. They were all basking in the sun. 

TADAH! Brown hair with red peekaboo underneath :)




Good workout haha.






 Stayed in this shop for super long because all the 招财猫s are so cute.

I bought 2 招财猫 keychains for my parents and specifically chose the one that symbolises Health for them! I bought another good luck keychain for myself and a big 招财猫, in pink, to put on my study table. Pink symbolizes Love. Not that i need the pink one, i just really like the colour.

Too cold so i got starbucks to save me hahaha. Damn loser. 





Left Lantau Island and went to Causeway Bay at night to have our dinner and to continue shopping! 


Crumbs has nice yogurt but it was about $6 SGD for the regular cup *points to photo above*

We were actually searching for this place that has good ba zhang, as recommended by my boss, but to no avail. Roamed around and finally settled on this spicy noodles for our dinner. They also have the clear soup for those who cannot take spicy food.


Whenever i eat at places that allow me to choose the spicy level, i'll never pick the max because i don't want to overestimate myself even though i love and can eat spicy food. I remembered Bryan and i ate at this bar at Thomson last time and we ordered the chicken wings.

Waiter: Spicy level?
Me: Hmm... 3.
Bryan: What 3? Give her the max *looks at menu* 5!

In the end we had level 3 and it wasn't even spicy haha. But the point is, i don't want to overestimate myself then suffer the aftermath.

So i ordered 大辣 while June had 特辣. Lol i think she regret instantly because it was so numbing on her tongue that she couldn't taste anything. Her face and lips were super red too. In the end she transferred her ingredients into Daniel's half eaten bowl of clear soup. 

I normally love the 油菜 but this sucks leh. 


Causeway Bay has the 6 storey Forever 21. I spent about 3 hours there the last time i went haha. This time i only spent 90 minutes since not a lot of clothes caught my eyes. It was too troublesome to shop together so we went separate ways at F21 and set a time to meet at the entrance instead. After i was done, i walked over to another mall just opposite F21 to walk around and saw Pandora there! 

Caved in and bought one charm in the end haha. Actually it's only $4 cheaper than Singapore.... 


Wanted to get this but decided against it in the end. 


We also bought boxes of Wife's Biscuits in Sogo. Sogo used to be available in Singapore remember? I super love Wife's Biscuits. It's my MUST BUY whenever i'm in Hong Kong. This is also my "souvenir" for my family and friends lol. I also just found out that Bryan doesn't like it...... after being together for 5 years........ after i gave him a box last year and another box this year........

I seriously thought everyone loves Wife's Biscuits. #failgirlfriend #buthenevertellme #notmyfault
