Welcome ♥

More than I could hope or dream of
You have poured Your favour on me
One day in the house of God is
Better than a thousand days in the world

So blessed, I can't contain it...
So much, I've got to give it away,
Your love taught me to live now...
You are more than enough for me.

Lord, You're more than enough for me
Lord, You're more than enough for me

God's child ♥

my deepest desires: go to Australia to get my degree. do humanitarian work. backpack. find my 'knight in shining armour'. and finally..MIGRATE! (:

My name is jiamin. i'm just a simple ordinary girl struggling to excel in my studies and to find my true identity. i have come to realise tht hope is, but, a very important thing for all of us; tht in the darkest moments, only if we cling on to hope can we find peace within ourselves. God bless!

woO and im here again!! haha!! gonna FINALLY blog abt my Hong Kong trip!! and here goes...

DAY 1
aft clearing immigration we rushed to buy WATER!! gosh almost 4 hrs without water..haha! but it was our choice la..wanted to save money ma...ok anyway aft tht went to tke a bus to Nathan Hotel. it was quite a bad start cuz the seats were like stained and dirty but we seemed to b the onli ones affected by it..the other pple were juz sitting normally and some were even slping!! alrights aft settling our hotel rooms we dived straight into shopping wif the genius minds of xy and hn in reading the map (i seriously m so bad at doing tht) they managed to find the way to Jordan station and we took the train to mong kok...shopped at Argle centre till the night..had late dinner at KFC..cuz the things there were like so cheap we cldnt bring ourselves to leave the place...bot so many stuffs.dinner was embarrassing..kfc there has a different system where they give u the number for yur order,so we tot they wld serve us, but little did we noe tht we were supposed to collect it ourselves. apparently there was sum announcement made but in CANTONESE and we cldnt understand, and when the waitress came to inform us she spoke in canto and despite us expressing tht we din understand she juz walked away..wad kind of svc manz!! but anyway, lastly we tried to find where ladies market was..and it was so amazing when we went there we saw stretches of roads closed for pple to shop. oh and we happened to pop into a 3 storey Bosini shop and each bot a kid's tee..haha..so cute and so cheap!! less then ten bucks! the thing we realised was tht...at even 11 plus the streets were still thronged wif pple shopping..and it was a weekday! haha..round off fers day...streets quite dirty and smelly, we cld smell the sewage waters and the pple are rude and pushy!

Day 2
had breakfast at a dim sum restaurant across our hotel...a treat by xy's parents..thanks!! but the svc was atrocious! seriously bad!! but anyway today we went to disneyland!! the train to get there was spectacular..the windows and handles were mickey mouse faces, and the seats were cushiony, and there were disneyfigurines at intervals between the seats...extremely out of this world haha..and as we were walking in the street lamps had disney pictures handing..the whole place was extremely beautiful and magical..ok fine i noe im sk..but it was rrly spectacular..haha especially the fireworks behind the castle at night...exactly like wad it was like in the cartoons..the rides weren't thrilling bt i guess juz experience and soak in the atmosphere of the whole place. oh ya! the dustbins even had cartoon faces on them...like Jiminie the cricket frm.....PINOCHIO!!! HAHA

Day 3
went to Ocean Park!! rides definitely more thrilling!! haha..the place is freaking big!! we went up escalators climbed stairs all the way the place is so high and the rides are so far frm each other..and they haf two islands..haf to sit cable car there and we cant see the other island frm where we were cuz it's over the other side aft two hills..i tell u the architecture itself is amazing and absoutely gravity defying...solely built on the sides of the mountains. hmm anyway we left in the evening and then headed to tshim sha tsui area..fers shopped at the esprit outlet..totally grt bargains...then we rushed dwn to avenue of stars to hopefully make it in time for the so-called performance..but unfortunately missed it...however we got some photos of the beautiful night view and some handprints of some famous actors..haha..oH ya and we realised the roads in this area were so much cleaner and didnt stink...all the posh hotels were ard the area, there were alot of ang mohs which was a rare sight at where we were staying..and so we figured it was a rich man's area...anyway aft tht headed to ladies market...and as usual it was packed...and we discovered their cinema..it wasnt even in any building juz a sidewalk where we saw alot of pple and smelt popcorn..wonder where the cinema is...somewhere inside i guess?haha

Day 4
ok today was shopping day..we decided to tke a walk to tshim sha tsui area..passing by the boulevard since we were quite early and the shops din open tht early. left tht area mayb ard 3 to 4 plus i think, then headed to causeway bay..bot donuts frm KRISPY KREME..it's frm USA and it taste damn good.haha. xy bot some cute bottles frm the supermarket there which sold stuff countries all over the world and i wanted to get them too but in the end decided against it cuz i think in the end i wun keep it also...haha..aftwhich we went streetshopping for awhile before heading to victoria peak...which we took So long to find becuz of the poor signages and when we asked pple where the bus stop was different pple told us different places..so we were like gg back and forth..in the end we managed to find the place but all the shops were closed and we cldnt find anywhere to haf dinner so we settled for doughnuts.haha..the view at the peak was beautiful...hong kong rrly has beautiful lights on their buildings, think spore shld follow..Suntec is the best tht u can get..haha..and oh at the peak it was cooler then at ground level..and there are even houses at the peak..muz b rich pple manz...ok aft tht we headed back to hotel le...

Day 5 ( Last Day)
checked out fers then went to mongkok area to find the same doughnuts...to bring some home...then we headed to argyle to do some last minute shopping....before leaving the area at ard 2...went to pick our luggages at the hotel before tking a taxi to citigate shopping area...it was bad judgement...the taxi fare was abt HKD280!! i felt like we were juz being robbed!! so freaking ex!! ok anyway had another dim sum meal treated by xy's parents...thanks once again...it tasted so much better and svc was better...haha..aftwhich we shopped ard awhile before heading for the airport...we were lugging our luggage everywhere..which was quite a sight i reckon..haha...tis time round oddly the plane ride back on jetstar was so much more pleasant...wonder if it's juz psychological but the seats seemed wider.haha..we decided to juz order their food and heck the expensive part.haha..the air stewardess were so much friendly esp this one called patricia..the moment we came on the plane she asked about our doughnuts and her laughter was so CutE! haha..anyway aft eating we fell aslp and before we knew it...we were in spore!

how 5 days juz flew by...misunderstandings happened and i sincerely apologise in those tht i was involved. but i hope our friendship grew as we got to noe each other even better? accept each other's flaws and weaknesses. anyway pics are somewhere wif hn and xy...havent goten my hands on them yet..HAHAHA!! wOw such a long post!! i took like 2 hrs to type tis..haha..and it ends NOW (:
