I'm gonna try to keep the text minimal due to laziness and just a lack of time... Blogging takes so much effort! Anyway, so much has been going on... I'm definitely just skimming the surface with this entry, but oh well, what can I do.

I'm having a great time so far - Met a lot of new friends! :) I've been going out with either friends or family every day and it's almost overwhelming! I'm not really used to this out-and-about lifestyle yet... But I'm getting there!

Aside from sight-seeing, I also did a bit of shopping (of course). I've been fairly stringent these days though - I really have to stick to my budget. Bought some clothes, accessories, and other beauty-related things... I made a wise purchase today! :) Got a pair of falsies by TAKAKO, and I have to say they're amazing! I think I'll get a pair for my sisters and ship them back home. The quality is THAT good!

Excuse my tired look =="
takako style.jpgSince I've been trying to save money, I've been trying to delay my visit to the hair salon... But my black roots got so nasty that I had no choice ==" Yes, I think it's so gross that I don't even want to post a "before" photo. When you're faced with such a dilemma, you could do one of two things...

(Which I've been doing for the longest time, sadly)... OR fork out 400HKD

Anyway! THE FOOD HERE IS GREAT! Even the fast food. Really. I was looking forward to the McDonald's menu, and they never fail to disappoint! They have CURLY FRIES!!!

Tastes like Arby's! But better!

They also have "McPasta" for breakfast! It's a must-try!

Ahhhh now I'm so hungry ==" But I'm exhausted... So I'm gonna end this post. But what's an entry without a few camwhore photos?

Hi~ i'm from soompi~~
I don't have that much to say other than that I really like your blog and you seem to lead a very interesting life judging from your pictures~~
I'm in highschool (in Canada) and I'm not sure what I want to study in post secondary but I was also interested in doing something related to business as well as doing an exchange to HONG KONG..but the thing is I don't think I have the guts because I don't know anybody there and since I'm a 'jook sing' my chinese is relatively poor~
Any advice? Haha. Please keep blogging :) I enjoy reading and looking at your posts~~
