My weekend

On Sunday, we had lunch at a mega toilet place. Very interesting..
Can you see the lighted urinals and the pangsai lamps?

The eating area. I think they should allow us to wear their bathrobes!

Pearl and her toilet bowl full of ... food.

Angus and his flourishing "business".

Sue and I with our delectable hotpot of assorted food.

The gang
Observe the toilet bowls we're sitting on! and the bathtubs and washbasins as our tables!!

On saturday night, I met a Singaporean during one of my chemistry classes (Pharmaceutical Chem). Realised that it was a post grad class!!! Anyway, he's a masters student who was from acs(b) and acjc! cool eh. He's quite a food addic. So brought us to eat dai pai dong at Java Road in North Point.

Wanton with creamy cheese inside!

Wai Zin, an NUS girl I met on exchange in HKUST. She's a math's major my year!

That's the masters guy - cheong sin and jiahuan!

Haha. Random. But on sunday morning, we had yumcha at 9am in the morning! at Hk's famous Maxim's palace. wooohooo. (yumcha before church. can you beat that!)
I realised that HK allows freedom of speech. This is a Filippino pastor preaching on the streets at central. Along the way, I also met an angmoh man holding a healing session. To my surprise, many people were there to recieve healing! On the streets!

That's roy and jang with a table-full of dim sum!

小笼包

forgot the name!

炸wanton

Yupp. After yumcha, Sue and I left for Church service at ICA.
One of the church member's father/husband passed away recently. Don't know them. But felt their sorrow. Maybe because it reminded me of what happened to my Dad. Thank God for His faithfulness and love.

This will be my 4th week in Hong Kong. Then can I safely say that I have spent a month in HK! cool eh! ~
Coming back in a week's time! Can't wait. Miss home miss family miss church.

And Guess what. it's 7 - 9 °C in Hong Kong now! Freezing! brrrrrrr!!!!

My dorm

Tried walking from my hall to the train station the other day. Guess what? I climbed down so many stairs, it made me dizzy! haaah. This is alumni park, which leads from nearby the Science centre to the college chapel! Nice park. Wouldn't want to go there alone at night though.

These amazing flowers by the road near the Science Centre. It becomes redder every day! Blessedly, I got them on picture, pink! :) I think they're roses. But they're way too huge!

Silly, but I went running with Jia huan on a cold night one day. Nice eh? The track! We have 2 tracks in CU. This one is at Chung Chi college, near the train station.

I'm sure Dorcas would like running here. There's HK std chart here btw! so cold! can't imagine anyone running... brrr.

My first time at the laundry downstairs. That's ceci from my floor! She's really cute! :) It only cost $1+ to wash clothes for 40 minutes. There's even a dryer!

And that's the kitchen on my floor.
I'm attempted to cook everyday this week! And I did! except for 2 meals :P

That's my adorable dad on skype. I have no idea what he's doing! I told him to smile :)

And my mom and dad during one family msn video session!
Praise God it worked!

And this is the stairs i have to climb up everyday to the bus stop or to the science centre or to anywhere else.
Today's cold, rainy and really foggy!

My floor and the decorative umbrellas ellas ellas.. :)
That's my room on the left hand side, with the red CNY sticker on the door!

Foggy Day - not good for going out!

Alrighty, have a 10-5.30pm class tmr :( booohooo. I hope i survive.

Morning view

"Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters."
Genesis 1:2

Sunday Morning!

By God's grace, Sue and I managed to find our way, 45minutes on the MTR later, to North Point, and to ICA (international Christian Assembly). Andrew (guano's cousin) introduced me to it! And it was good! God really blessed sue and i.. the opening song was sung by a Korean homegroup (look above); and guess what!? the visiting pastor was... none other than...


Pastor Benny Ho! hohoho! He preached on Ezekiel - will the dry bones live? Indeed they will - with the spirit of God! The only way to defeat lifelessness is through the Spirit of God.

That's the book i'm using for Theology Class (introducing the Hebrew Scriptures). Ordered on amazon.. but it has yet to arrive! argh. The class is so-so i feel.. not taught from a Christian point of view, but from a neutral one. However, the class is full of divinity school students (old aunties and uncles). haaa.

After church, Sue and I met up with Roy to go to Ngong Ping for some sight seeing. The rest went to shen zhen.
Ate at food republic - sue had laksa with a '5cm' thick layer of oil, I had Hokkien prawn mee fried HK style :p, and roy had chicken rice - the safest bet.

Later, we trekked up the 2nd highest mountain in HK...


Just Kidding.

Mango pancake from the dessert stall at ngong ping. By the time we got there, the durian ones were sold out. aiya!

Just for fun!

On our way up, we bought some "ping tang hu lu" - i think these are special ones. It's frozen strawberry, coated with malted sugar and rice paper. Delicious!

As far as the heavens are above the earth, so is God's love for u.
Our Lord God almighty, is Lord over all!

I liked how the flags were swaying with the wind. Couldn't capture it nicely on photograph though. It was beautiful!

ahhh. ahh. ahh.. halfway up there! *pant*
There's so many stairs in HK! especially in CUHK. Everywhere i go, i have to climb stairs! I can see some leaner thighs on the way.. yumyum.

Poinsettas in the temple.

hey, I know i'm handsome, but who said u could take pictures of me.. ruff!

roy from smu. haaaa. i think he's pretending to be cold.

On the cable car ride down ngong ping.. the wind thru the slits on the seats were freezing our butts!
