Finally Serving The Nation. Wakeboarding Spree!

So after more than 6 months after school ended, I'm finally serving the government & country. Oh and yes. It's only been 1 week & I'm out. Haha! Thanks to the fasting month for the Muslims.

*HOLLER THERE DUDE! you owe me one for this!
cya at HSBC Wakeboard World Cup Singapore 2005 -- ad :)

Anyway just before I went in, I think I went on a crazy spending spree which is SO unlike me. No, not on clothes. On wakeboarding!!! It was damn fun going with Andre, Eric, Adelyn & Jervis. They made the trip even more interesting. Haha! GINA! Jerv, although you didn't go with us on the Cableboarding, I bet you will the next time am I right? Buahaha!

Hong Kong... Round 2!

Back with another travel entry! Other than Malaysia, this is the 1st time I've been back to the same country. This time I went back to HK for a family holiday with Mum & Bro unlike the previous trip here. I don't exactly travel with my family much so it definitely does feel different. Anyway having a brother you bicker with all the time to go along, isn't a sign of good things to come. Bad weather, got sick (came back home got even worse), renovations, etc etc. Damn. But at least the amazing hospitality of my HK friends kinda made up for it.

September 6th - 9th


Early Takeoff = Beautiful Sunrise

Disneyland Resort! Nope. Wasn't open yet. Didn't really want to go there anyway.

His face seems to be everywhere this time of the year.

Hong Kong!

Stayed @ Hyatt Regency HK.

Just look at how bad the haze was.

Practically ate @ this Macau-style Eatery everyday. Fried Rice kicks arse!

Travelled mainly by train(MTR)...

...& the famous Star Ferry!

Didn't get to try this the last time. Pretty nice.

Was able to get some nice perspectives of HK Harbour.

I think this Jap girl has the hots for me. =p

Another view of the harbour from HK Convention Centre.

We also ended up walking a lot but did see interesting stuff.

Hong Kong Streets!

Hong Kong Homes

City Buildings

What's walking in HK without the crowds?

You'll find the occasional basker/begger on the streets.

My really cool HK Yoyo friends took us around by bus & foot.

Taking the bus lets you have a glimpse at Hong Kong alleyways.

Another thing I missed out the previous trip... Victoria's Peak! Damn renovations! No Peak Tram. No Peak-top Marche. ARGH!

Pretty cool to stay up so high eh? Imagine the views!

Family &...

Buddies!

Here We Yo! HK Yoyo Club!

Nightlife here of course is also an eye-opener.

Hong Kong's version of the "Indoor Stadium"

The famous Harbour view @ night.

This was like around midnight. Thanks guys for sticking around with me till so late!


Even got to walk over HK's version of the Walk of Fame in Hollywood! Jackie Chan. Ha!

An end to a very hazy trip...




P.S. Shoutout to all the HK dudes! Love you guys man! HWY Rawks! See ya'll @ AP 05!
