Why so serious? *evil laugh*

hrmm, so heres another entry that will make me cringe when i look back on it.. Right now, at this moment i feel a little lost.. or as my pm says like "theres an elephant standing on my head" maybe its because right now, at this moment i know something to be real. I realised that something i thought -might actually be true. But i know that it is in this moment, and that tomorrow i will continue on telling myself that it isnt true, that i just think it is for many other reasons. But right now. right now i know it. and it hurts to know the truth. I think that inside i know it, but its hidden by many layers that try to keep it away. I cant face it or deal with it; coz if i did, then i dont know what would happen. The unknown is what scares me the most. I cant talk to anyone about it because it is something that i have denied for so long, facing up to people would just be humiliating. What else scares me is the thought of being alone. I am alone in this moment. Sometimes i fool myself into thinking that i wont be alone always. That ill always have people around. But its not what i really want. Why cant some1 choose to hang out with me and want to be around me all the time. why havent i found that someone who wakes up thinkin about me.. bleh i feel like such a loser atm. I realised in HK only a few things that i was sure about. one was that i would not worry about the small things. the other was to go out more and actually live my life. My life doesnt revolve around work and uni.. and after my first week back, my life has gone back to how it was before i left. Ive worked everyday for the past week.. and next week doesnt look any better. Im working and have uni and thats all i seem to be thinking about. I wasted my days off thinking of where to go out, that actually going anywhere. I dont wana fall into that trap again. I dont want to be the same person. I want to live.

Day 6 - Hong Kong

Thursday- today we woke up late again.. around 11am.. good sleep.. but i had alot of dreams.. i dont remember all.. i think my cousins were in it.. and maybe Steven.. but i dont remember.. We stayed in our hotel for awhile.. ate Logan & Mangoes we bought at the market the other day.. except the Logan fruit thing was sorta off.. we left it out too long.. lol it was fun eating mango with a spoon.. coz we have no knives in the room.. then we went to Jordan Street Station and caught a train to Mong Kok. we explored the street full of electronics.. and then went to the Ladies Market.. found so much bargains.. best buy were these really cute mini voodoo dolls.. i bargained her down to 5 for 100hk. i think Anna said in the city they usually sell for about $12 aussie each.. so thats amazingly cheap.. if we go back i wana buy more.. i kinda regret not buying more.. but Anna points out all the time.. that i wont use them.. but u cant go past the cuteness!.. we had lunch at some tea room restaurant.. i had spring rolls. im getting to be a master of the chopstick.. hehe its so fun eating with them.. i wana buy my own and eat everything with them from now on.. we continued shopping.. caught the train back.. a return ticket only costs 8hk.. which is about $1.20.. pretty cheap.. but i guess we didnt travel that far.. we got back to our hotel at about 7pm... anna had a nap.. and i gave a few calls home n stuff... then we left again.. went to the Charlie Brown Cafe.. which i guess is an Americanized cafe.. i had a really nice ham & cheese toasted sandwich... i think we will go back there again some time.. coz the food looks good.. probably better than maccas... now sittin at the internet cafe.. lol as the days go on.. we leave the hotel later and later. and come home later n later.. we are gettin kinda lazy.. n sleepy.. but yeah.. hrmm if the weather is good 2moro we are gona go back to Victoria Peak, and visit Madam Tausaads Wax Museum.. i think we are going to Macau on Saturday..
hrmm anywayz.. i think i like being in Hong Kong.. i was supposed to use this time to think about my life.. and about what direction i wanna take it.. but its kinda hopeless.. im keeping busy.. and my time thinking is just spent missing things and people at home.. i guess if u calculate the things i value in life and the things i want.. it all comes down to people.. i cant live without my friends.. and i guess im most happy when im with them.. Anna is keeping me alive though lol.. hehe she walks the streets pretending not 2 no me.. and walks at an arms length away so i dont knock her out with my umbrella.. lol its fun.. i like annoying her sometimes.. hehe anywayz... i guess thats enough for today..
10:55pm here.. think im gona b on for another hour or so.. then off to hotel and sleep.. goodnight xoox

Hong Kong Day 4-5

Hrmm so these blogs are an easier way to remember what i did on each day..
ok so Tuesday...
yesterday we woke up really early for our Kowloon and New Territories Tour.. There were only like 8 people including us on this tour.. and the tour guide talked heaps about her life.. she was kinda annoying... lol i dont even remember what we did.. Oh yeah.. first we went to a street market.. where they sold fresh food, fruits and meat.. and by fresh i mean, u pick a chicken, by the time u come back its dead, skinned and ready to cook.. then we went to see the border of China and Hong Kong.. it was actually at this lookout thing that overlooked the border.. it was a good view.. but the rain made it kinda foggy.. Then we went to an old village.. like proper old style where people still live today.. it had a lot of history, and was pretty interesting. Then we got to go to the largest Taoist Temple in Hong Kong. That was cool.. i saw heaps of turtles swimming around... so cute! lol hrmm then after that we went to that stupid jewellry factory again.. I think all tours are sponsored by this jewellry company.. but yeah.. oh wellz.. after that we went back to our hotel and it was so hot and humid, after a nap we had a swim... then we showered and went out for dinner.. i just had maccas.. it wasnt nice.. i mean it was yukky.. it just tasted different.. the meat wasnt 100% australian beef =( awwww... hrmmm then after shopping some more at this massive place called Harbour City with heaps of designers (Jimmy Cho, Gucci, Prada, Fendi).. we went to the cinemas... the cinemas were an experience.. we saw Hancock.. good movie.. lol we got to pick our seats.. being us, we picked the back row.. wondering why no1 had picked it, we thought we were lucky.. Once entering we realised why it was empty there.. the seats arent stadium like.. they only go up a smallish hill, so peoples heads were in the way.. thats why when u buy pirated movies, u always see some1 walk past lol.. After the movie we walked home... its ok to walk home at night in HK... everything is open till 10pm officially... but every1 walks around.. the city never sleeps.. but we do..
Wednesday.. we slept in till about 11am.. then we got ready and went to have Yum Cha.. me being me, was hesitant for tasting foods.. but being on holiday i decided i might as well make the most of it.. so i tasted all sorta of things.. prawn things, dim sum things, meatball things.. some good, some not so good.. oh wellz atleast i can say i tried it.. after that we went to the hairdresser.. i basically spent 5 hours or more there. got my hair perm straightened, treatment, and cut for only 950hk... = less than $150aussie.. thats soo cheap its crazy.. then we went to pizza hut and got a pizza to share.. even the meat on pizza tastes different.. its quite upsetting.,..hrmm then we came to internet cafe. which is where i am now.. its only 9:15pm.. but im dead tired.. hrmmm its gonna be a mission trying to keep my hair dry for the next few days... i cant believe how different my hair feels.. i have a front fringe now.. and he cut sooo much off...
-some lady followed me down a street trying to get me to get a massage and pedicure
-there are tailors everywhere still tryin to get u to buy tailored suits.. do i look like i need a suit?
-its still hot and humid and wet..
hrmm yeh anywayz.. ill try to blog every few days with updates of my holiday'ing adventures.. lol
