Sunday was a great day. Probably one of the best days I've had since being in HK. That's huge. Considering how miserable I've been with the commute and "minor" annoyances that shall remain nameless.
I met coworkers in Kowloon Bay for Hazel's send-off. (Not my sister Hazel, a co-worker Hazel.) We started with lunch at Megabox--a shopping mall--for Korean food. We waited for five elevators before squeezing into one. Hahaha. Yep, HK and elevators. After lunch, we went bowling. Now that was a trek. The hot sun didn't help. We got there and realized there was a tournament. Lol. Waited about 45 minutes for a lane.
The nine of us took two lanes. It was hilarious. Because no one could really bowl...but seriously the best way to play. While we were waiting, we got silly and started taking pictures. That was awesome. I'm waiting for Hazel to upload her pictures because Ching Ching used Hazel's camera to try to squeeze all nine of us into the photo while she held the camera...well she got everyone but herself. Hahaha.
This is perhaps the defining moment of our day. For the last round, Natalie used this gadget to help roll the ball straight...she got a strike!
Then we took the shuttle back to MTR station. I was going back to pick up my stuff from a family friend's place before heading home. But then ended up joining Dorothy and Judy to Tsim Sha Tsui. That was really fun. We just walked around Harbor City mall and had Vietnamese food. I decided I ate too much and did not get my new obsession from Cha Cha. I had the order ticket in hand but decided against it. Yay for good decisions!
We then spent some time taking photos with Doraemon. It was so fun being silly!
We parted ways at about 10pm. I took the bus back to Homantin because it would be a little closer than taking the train. Judy and Dorothy asked if I knew where I'm going. I said I took this route to the pier before. Judy asked, "During the day or night? It looks different, you know." And it did. Hahahaha. There was a nice man on the bus who helped me figure out my stop because the stop I knew to get off of is on the OTHER side of the street so whatever I was looking for would not exist. I walked up the hill and walked way faster than usual because it was a little dark and I kept saying to myself, "Don't be dumb next time. Just take a taxi."
The trip home from there took an hour and a half. I waited 20 minutes for my minibus and did not take the one that goes to the main road because I'm not walking from the main street to my place with laundry, groceries, overnight bag, and purse. Sigh. It was past midnight when I got home. Back to being a pumpkin.
