You wouldn't want to read this -___-

It has been long time since I sit down here with a peace of mind to blog. I have been very busy last few weeks - with reports to do, and cupcake orders to complete. It was indeed hectic, where at some point I am gonna lose myself. Thank God I have an Mr. Angel by my side, giving me the strength and energy when I'm down, pushed me when I stopped and gave me head massages to ease my headaches. I found myself lucky to have someone who support, encourage and lend a helping hand to whatever nonsense I do. And that pushed me to go further, together with him. ;)

One thing for sure, my energy level went down the drain, and so do my readers T__T *sobs*. This won't stop me from writing though! :)

I shall continue with my China/Hong Kong trip, which happened last year (arghhh don't throw rotten eggs to me...) and yes Clara, I still owe you Bandung trip posts. Feun's birthday. My coming birthday. Yaki-yaki buffet review. Swap review. Cherating, Pahang. Phew... One thing at a time. :D But now - Shenzhen. Boo...


Date: 28 November 2008, Friday
Agenda: Depart from Macau to Zhuhai and then to Shenzhen. (Fuh...)

We woke up at 7.00 am, thanks to the "friendly" alarm reminder via automatic telephone call by hotel. -___- We were freaking sleepy (we were in Macau the day before) but to think of the other members in the tour, we dare not to snooze for longer period. That's why we swear we would not joining any tour packages EVER AGAIN. No matter how cheap/worth it. I still prefer free and easy, where I can sleep and wake up whenever I want! Hmmph!

Dressed up the HK way. I wanna dress like this in Malaysia too... and get heat stroke later wtf.


After breakfast, we depart to Zhuhai (Pig River Pearl River), from Macau. Just look at the queue at China custom! Freaking long.


Here we are in Zhuhai.


The famous landmark in Zhuhai - 'Lady with Pearl'.


What are you waiting for? Snap photos lah!


We being very touristy T___T What's so nice bout the sign-stone after all? ;)

Next, we went to garden (where the others went for some cable car ride), while me and Wei Hwa walked to other side for some photo-snapping and dried sotong munching. Yes, dried sotong -___- It's famous in Zhuhai (as they claimed to be) and it's dead yummy!!! :) It comes in original and spicy... I love the spicy one! Forgot to snap photos of it though.

After dried sotong, lunch, jewelery scams (no shop's name being displayed and located in between flats) dingdingdongdong et-cetera, off we go to Shenzhen. Least that I know that it's gonna be a 3 hours journey! 3 hours journey in our local express bus is OKAY, but 3 hours journey in CHINA busses are definitely NOT okay. The seating of the bus was 90 degrees straight. Yup, how comfy is that. "Thanks" to the driver too, I can't sleep well for 5 minutes. Thanks, Reliance. =___=

Finally, after escaping one kind of a hell ride, we reached Shenzhen and thanked God we're in piece. What's the first thing to do in Shenzhen? SHOPPING! :)

Dong Men Shopping District is not a department store, its an open air shopping area that is interconnected, with hundred plus shops. A shopping heaven, and its lively at night. Along the shops are small parks with benches, and a lot of food stalls, good place to sit once you are tired from shopping. The place is really for people that love to bargain, always ask immediately for 50% off from its original price. Bags (from handbags to luggages), fashion accessories, shoes, toys, men & women clothings. Shop keepers accept only RMB or HK dollar. But a lot of them accepts RMB only.
