My Hongkong Trip

Whenever i travel alone, i tend to have a habit to keep a travel journal. I like to be able to grasp that nick of happiness before it's nipped away. To jot down everything. Now that I picked up the habit of taking pictures. My travel journal seems almost complete. I am going post a brief of my journal here. Its gonna bore all of you if i post the whole book.hk1
For the past 3 months, it never was a single awakening moment that i felt peace. i was lost in the crowd. i have taken a disinterest to everything and everyone else's. This trip serves to be at the right time, like a rinse with clear water. I am , but just , Icarus the mortal who tumbles when he flies. Not Apollo the God.

Hongkong. A city which i adore for its intensity. Like the city neon lights that never flicker, city dwellers grow to adopt a lifestyle similar to such. Its one city that i feel grossly awkward to wear my sport gear commuting after gym. But I love it anyhow. For my friends who live there. For the beautiful and wide array of services and apparels. Perhaps thats the reason my dear gal friend finds it hard to digest the fact that she is plump, and different. She was admitted to hospial , amongst various health reason, consumption of slimming pills that may have been prescribed my unethical sinsehs.Thank god she is getting better now. But I could understand her angst, though i do not condone on her taking such pills.

My interview went all very well. It was a 4 hours long sumptuous dinner , with the rain pounding so terribly outside. I can't reveal much here. But I am taking Business Chinese in Chinese Chamber of commerce in the coming month. i am taking each one at a time. Que Sera Sera.

Despite all the shopping and deserts that gives me immense pleasure, I enjoy the companionship of my hk friends. I begin to understand and also accept each and everyone of their eccentricities. Eliminating the jesters, keeping a closer knit hangout gang.

With this trip, I am learning to wear my ego down. To see things at a more neutral point. To make my love for my loved ones felt. To isolate my life drama from work. To do gym for the love. To see tranquil in chaos. To do what my heart says.For we live this life just once.
