Cultural differences
flap your wingsFOODWell, first of all, Hong Kong people's taste buds are different from ours! I really have to admit that certain foods are not really to my liking. However, pizzahut is superb over here, with their baked rice, and KFC with their portugese egg tarts!
PeopleDo you know that Philipinos make up 3% of the total population in Hong Kong? Well, most of the people in Hong Kong are Chinese. Why so many philipinos? I guess mostly come over for work. Hong Kong Chinese are quite good in their customer service. However, I must add that there are also some occasions whereby they are really rude, from the experience of my friends. I wonder whether it's our expections or that the sales personel does not understand what we say in English. I do feel that if we are able to speak English or cantonese, the people would look up to you. Which is sort of true. So people, learn cantonese before you come, you can get better discounts! Oh ya, they are implementing the GST scheme either from next year onwards or after the next year!
Through the summer exchange, I have learnt about amusing experiences. Haha~ Well, hmmm...
Once I went to Macau, and in the ladies' toilet, I saw a auntie doing her business without the door closed when there is a door. Hahaha, amusing, but I guess it may just be that she is used to her culture. Also, there was this American guy who was shocked when he saw us peel off the prawns' head and sucking out the juice. He said that, from where he came from, the prawns have already been beheaded and excluded from the servings. Well... we continue to shock him with the fish's eyeballs. Gasp!
=) Plain amusing, and embarassing....

It's been a long time since I've blogged.
flap your wingsYep... It's like a century ever since I've blogged, but it's not really that long. Haha... I was just busy with studying Traditional Chinese Medicine for the last week. Well, after the TCM exam, the University held a dinner at a posh hotel( The Metropplis in Hung Hom), however the food was not really what I have expected. But the hotel do score points with the BBQ and cakes and desserts. I can only stare at the Hagen Daz as I passed by it, just because we did not pay $84 SGD for the buffet( we paid less, so had less variety too).

A few snapshots from Macau Trip
flap your wings
Well, I tried snail for the first time and I must say that the texture tastes like one lump of mozarella cheese after it has cooled from cooking. Also, my camera died from shortage of power, so I need to get some of my pics from my friends.. haha... A nice trip on a birthday, I must say. However, felt a little cheated by the locals there.
