Things That I Just Found Out Today.
Two things:
1) Umbrellas are practically useless in this part of Hong Kong (hilly). Way too windy. I’ve broken like 2 umbrellas since I got here and I’m so not about to break another one. Therefore, I’ve decided to never bring an umbrella out anymore. I’ll buy a raincoat (and stand out like the weirdest freak ever in uni) or carry a waterproof bag with a change of clean dry clothes after I’ve drenched myself walking to campus in the rain. Ha ha.
2) My VJ Jeans are MISSING! I think I remember bringing it back over from KL. But I couldn’t find it anywhere in my room nor that laundry basket thingy up in the washing room for ‘anonymous’ clothes (I had run out of clean pants :p. Makes you wonder how long it’s been since I did my laundry eh? NOLAR! I do laundry every week, it’s just that since my ass has gotten so big, out of the 6 pairs only 3 would fit me). Weird. Who would want jeans which is overstretched at the butt part.
It’s the time of the semester to start studying, preparing for exams and finish off tons of assignments which apparently I’m procrastinating which explains why I’m here blogging again after going on a long hiatus.
Anyways, like I’ve said a gazillion times before, I’m doomed to infinity and beyond!

Same here. The rain hits you horizontally so umbrella is pretty much useless. Get a nice waterproof windbreaker to break the wind and keep yourself dry. And train to walk really really fast.

Lol. I sorta miss the Malaysia rain. The really heavy-with-lightning-strikes downpour.
Haha. And I do walk faster already. When we meet up with Janet again, I have to see whether I really improved. :p Or maybe it’ll be the same outcome coz you guys will be walking even faster than before.

oi oi… i don’t walk that fast lah… but it’s true…. umbrellas are sort of useless. the wind here causes them to turn upside down? very embarrassing and annoying…

Jing: Coz of the freaking wind (I think)! Actually they do, but people here are pros already, so they usually close their umbrellas before they turn inside out or somehow, they’ve developed a technic of holding the umbrella to prevent that from happening (which I so have not discovered how it works yet). :p
Janet: Well, to tell you the truth, you do. :p Yep, annoying!
