Golden Week
Started in China and apparently in Japan too.
The whole of Hong Kong seems to be SWARMING with tourists, mainland Chinese & Japanese.
Went for a facial yest at Sense of Touch. Place is quite small but I think the facial wasn't too bad. Wasn't run by locals I think - the receptionist and the therapists were Filipinos or Indonesians or something. I did the Skin Exfoliation treatment and for about 1 hr 20 min, it costs a whopping HK$650. BUT I think i feel the difference - my skin does feel smoother but that could be coz they used good Dermalogica products.
Following my facial, I strolled down Hollywood Road to get myself a coffee at Pacific Coffee. Sitting by the window, facing the road, I took out my notebook (the one Yeacy gave me prior to me moving here) and wrote down things I should do so I will not feel bored & miserable here. I should start gymming more often, probably take up lessons in either guitar/bass guitar/drums or learn tennis. I know some ppl are encouraging me to take yoga but honestly, I don't think it's my cuppa tea.
Anywaaaaaay, after walking around aimlessly in Central for a while (I realise I should go Central more often - it's full of non-HKies! :) ) I took the ferry to TST, thinking I'd go check out Granville Road for some shopping. Upon reaching there, I found a Japanese restaurant next to this record store I went in to help Hoon check out this CD she wanted! I got myself a Sukiyaki set, complete with chuwanmushi, rice & a Coke for a mere HK$40! Was very pleased and aim to go back there again.
Am going out to go to a private sale with Cardin now, don't even know what the sale is selling haha. Then we are watching MATCH POINT at 2.30pm and she's meeting some friends after that and I think I'll come home to watch DVDs, cook dinner and probably pack my bag for BKK.

Yoga has become Macdonaldized. Instead of zen and meditation, most centres pack the studio and you don't get much personal attention. I still root for the underdog places, the ones where you have 10 students per class, tucked away in some little corner.
