Macau
We get a public holiday as it was Mid Autumn Festival yesterday. Funnily I didn't see many people carrying lanterns but the people were out full force alright.
Had to go to Macau in order to re-enter the country under the Employment Visa. Macau is bleargh! Could be coz i had to go thru the ferry terminal and it was probably not as civilized as how the airpot would have been. The customs queue was insanely long and even though I was not in a rush to get anywhere, I sure wasn't gonna hang around and wait! And some stupid China woman tried to cut my queue, but my dagger glares had her slinking behind me. The place is just so absurdly uncivilized, and I thought I made a better choice opting for Macau than Shenzhen.... guess the mainland Chinese ARE EVERYWHERE!
When I bought my ferry tickets in HongKong i wanted to make sure that I could return on the same day so I bought a return as well (some ppl opt to buy it only when returning). I asked the guy at the counter to give me as early as possible and he's like... "you reach there 4.15, u wanna return at 4 plus too?" In the end I bought a 6.50pm ticket that gave me a few hours on flat ground before I returned to HK. That didn't give me enough time to go into Macau City and I tried to find out where was worth going and in all honesty, NOWHERE! Apparently European architecture is quite prominent in Macau and I saw a few casinos... the place looked a bit dirty and I just hung around the nearby Yaohan (!!!) mall and just went back to the Ferry terminal early... which was probably for the better coz it was also ANOTHER MADHOUSE. Thank gawd I brought my Marie Claire mag which proved to be more interesting than Cosmopolitan! On the return ferry, ANOTHER STUPID woman took my window seat and no matter how I tried to tell her mine is the window seat, she kept pointing to the aisle seat and nodding at it. I glared at her and really couldn't be bothered to argue with her and her stinky low class equally uncivilized husband. I had a good mind to just sit there and not let them out if they needed the loo!!!!
I have never been so damn glad to be in HK I tell u.
Bought dinner and ate in front of the TV while watching SCHOOL OF ROCK.
Maybe Macau would be better if i went with other ppl and knowing exactly what to see and buy etc.
Nonetheless... BLEARGH TO U STINKY uncivilized tourists at the
Macau Ferry Terminal!
