Again, again, again

It’s been a very busy month. I’ve been to Lantau Island more than four times, Stanley Market twice, Mongkok Market twice, Avenue of Stars twice, and a number of other tourist attractions more than twice. Practically all the weekends of Feb nasa galaan ako.

Bakit?

Kasi this month alone nagkaroon ako ng limang bisita sa bahay, and I brought them to these places. It was fun having them around, lalo na yung three sisters ko na super na-miss ko nung umalis.

Yung dalawa ko namang college friends, I’m sure mahihimbing na sila ng tulog ngayong gabi kasi super pinuyat ko sila kagabi at nung mga nakaraang araw. Wag sana nila ma-miss ang aking lutong spaghetti.

At di ko pa man nalilinis ang nabakanteng kwarto, I just received word na meron pang darating na tatlo next month. And another two in April.

Grabe, I feel like a hotel owner! Fabulous talaga!

Gold

Green is out, gold is in. This explains why this site now dons a gold background. It's obviously influenced by what we here in Hong Kong are celebrating now -- The Year of the Golden Pig.
 
Gold symbolizes strength. In the coming months, you'll continue to learn more about my struggles as a fabulous jologs in Hong Kong, and how I try to be strong amid all the challenges.
 
Gold symbolizes beauty. But since I do not post my pictures on this site, do expect to read more on how I try to polish my inner beauty instead. Or how ugly I can get, depending on the situation.
 
Gold symbolizes wealth. It's definitely something I want to have in a year that will truly test my money-handling skills. I'll be showing you how kuripot your fab jologs can get.
 
Gold is 50 years. So bear with me if I don't update this site as often as you'd like it to be updated. Maybe check back every 50 days.

Gold shines. There's definitely a star in every one of us. And this year, I'd like that star in me to shine. I just don't know yet what that star is capable of doing.

NOTE: I don’t think the gold template looks great, but that’ll do for now.

Laisee

This is my second Chinese New Year in Hong Kong. This is also the second time I’ve received a laisee from my landlady. She mailed me this before she and her husband went to Turkey for a weeklong vacation.  Aw, so sweet!
