Rain, rain, and rain
July 10, 2008
It has indeed rained a lot in HK the past few days. Today's the first time I see rays of sunlight actually, after visiting Ikea in Causeway Bay with Kevin (I didn't buy anything (in fact, I have bought almost nothing (well, except clothes)). Normally I appreciate rain in the summer, but rain in the summer in HK means nothing but unbearable humidity. Plus, rain does not cool here.
I've also been crawling on the streets and inside malls(metaphorically of course). On tuesday, I crawled the entire mk, then had dinner with grandma. On wed, I had lunch with Amy and Vivian in FW's Exp and crawled Logon. Then Amy and I sang k till 2am after an extra quick dinner, obviously inspired by watching Star Avenue in Pacific Coffee in the afternoon. There was no bus at 2am..so I had to minibus+taxi back.
Today, I crawled Causeway Bay and a bit of TST. Kevin and I had a late but good lunch at 和文 and I ordered 焗海鮮飯 （烤？）. We also played Mario Kart in a game 'shop'. For dinner, Amy and I went to 小城滋味, and after that we also went to 打機.
I've changed my plans a little bit; I'll be flying to beijing on monday. This should give me a few more days to meet everyone.
A bit too soon?

So, I've arrive in HK around 7pm last nite. I was greeted by a wave of hot air, which is not surprising since many have told me how hot it is. Yet unlike last time, arriving in HK did not feel as surreal. It felt like a standard and regular procedure. Perhaps it's because last time, I thought I'd never be back (I know this is not comprehendable for all). Yet this time, everything was all too familiar since I was gone for only five months.
Yet, I'll only be here for a couple of days. On the 12th, I'll be heading to Beijing, which should be fun, but I am more nervous than anxious because I don't know much of what I'd be doing.
Meanwhile, June's total visit was 23400-22886=514, 514/30=17.13. Okay, not bad. Let's see if july's better.
