Viv and I went to see Charlie St. Cloud screening that was sponsored by the Dolly and Cleo mags tonight at Event Cinema after work. Zefron wasn't there to welcome us sadly but we did get a goodie bag filled with useful stuff if you're a teenage girl (which is the main target audiences for the movie). Dry shampoo, toothpaste, mascara, wallet, mags etc.
Tash asked me to give her the tampon if they had one but sadly they didn't give that out in the bag, so no tampon for you Tashie!
On top of that, we also got free soft drinks and popcorn and a mini fashion show before the movie start. The movie itself is actually quite good. Awesome if you're a big Zefron fans like myself. I think he's a really good actor, he's got a special charm and gentleness that works really well for this kind of movie.

In my opinion, the most annoying part of the movie is the trailer. Whoever did the cutting for the trailer should be fired because they show and tell the whole story of the movie there.
I know it's based on a book but I think you should keep some elements of suprise in the movie for the people who haven't read it. In saying that, I stil give it 3 and a half out of 5 stars.

It's been a super duper busy couple of weeks for me, with the crazy deadline and all. We had been staying back at the office every day until midnight this week. My body feels so tired and thank gawd we finally finished the whole design part yesterday. I don't envy the subbed dept at all because they still have a long way to go.
The Disney peeps got invited to the Camp Rock 2 Australian premiere and they invited me to come along. Free food and drinks after the deadline from hell? Hell yea! It was held at Deckhouse in Woolwich and we were supposed to take the free ferry ride from Darling Harbour, but since Klai is bringing Phoebs along, we drove there instead.
The Disney channel goes all out with the location' decor, entertainment for the kids and the place. The deckhouse is a really nice place and we all had never been to this area before. Lots of kids with their parents come as expected and once we all had the nibbles and drinks, they start playing the movie. We obvs didn't come there for the movie haha, I haven't even seen the first one yet, so we all just hung around out at the back waiting for more food to come. The food were quite nice Btw. Peking duck crepes, hot dogs, satay chicken, macaroon and champagne wit OJ for me.

My friend, Denin has a stall at the Sydney Uni Pet Fair today, so we went to give her a visit. I've known Denin for ages, since high school to be exact and now shes married, has a 3 yrs old kid (Chris, who is insanely adorable) and has opened a small business. I'm very proud of her. It's called Spoon and fork and specializes in cookies, cupcakes and wedding cakes.
As her friend I got the privilige to taste them all obviously and trust me, they're really really good. She brought a 20kg wedding cake to my office and we all eat it for days and days and everyone compliments at how delicious the cake is. She's really talented at what she does. She's like an Asian Martha Stewart!

It's Phoebe's turn to have her B'day celebration today. I know! all these b'day I'm telling ya, but this one is special because she's turning 1. Yep, a full 12 months! That's why Im trecking myself via train all the way to Merrylands. If you know me well, you would know that I don't like to travel anywhere past Newtown and Merrylands is way out west.
It turned out not that bad. I took a limited stop train and it only took me half an hour to get there. Tash and Alex picked me up from the station.
The party was held at Merrylands RSL club and it's an all-you-can-eat buffet. YUMM!!! Klai invited 100 people. I don't think she knows most of them. They're mostly friends of her parents. For entertaiment, they had this overworked magician with his seemingly drugged out rabbit. Poor magician, he couldn't have a peaceful time to finish his dinner. Everyone kept asking him to make animal balloons and stuff.
As you can see from the pics, the theme is Mickey Mouse. Little Phoebs dressed up as Minnie complete with the ear headbands. The buffet was amazing Btw. We kept on filling our plates with seafoods and desserts. On last counts I think I had between 4-5 plates. Damn you buffet!!
It was a really fun party and totally worth it travelling all the way there hahaha. Thanks for inviting me Klai and happy B'day again cute Phoebe!

We went to Adrian and Raffi's place for his B'day drinks. Even thou they don't live that far from me, I haven't visited them in ages. Actually I lie, I went to their place last week to return the vacuum cleaner, but only for 5 mins!.
Anyway, It was nice to catch up with them again along with Josh and James. I haven't seen James for months! I used to see him at the train station every morning, but since I go to work late most of the time, we never cross path's anymore. They all went clubbing afterwards to Oxford Street but I went back home. Way too tired.
Joyeux Anniversaire Raffi! lots of love:)

So grab it if you guys are planning to get married or having babies. I actually really like our Bride cover. It's really gorgeous and romantic and they're real life couple too.

We are flying back to Sydney today. Boo!! :( There are still so many places that we haven't seen.
When we first planned this trip, we thought 6 days is more than enough to see HK and had even planned to go to Macau. Obviously we were wrong. 6 days isn't enough to check out HK at all! I’ve still got a lot on my to-see list and it's really sad that everything was over so fast. We were already starting to get used to the city and their working hours and we love it here. It's a really nice city to visit and I actually have a lot of relatives here who I haven't seen in years. Hopefully we get to come back here soon and for longer this time. We would prob spend more time just enjoying the city and not got at an Amazing Race pace trying to cross out everything on everyone’s lists hahahaha.
Sidenote; everyone here actually thinks that I'm one of them and always start talking to me in Cantonnese! I don't think I look like Honkies at all.

We will arrive in Sydney in the night time. Luckily, I took Tuesday off too, so I can unpacked, rest and prepare myself for work on Wednesday. Can't wait for my next holiday again. Bring on December!!!!

Last full day in HK. First on the schedule is Ocean park. It's a huge theme park in HK. We took a bus to get there and since it's the weekend, there's thousands of people there already. It took us ages just to even do 1 ride. It was fun nevertheless. We took the cable car again and got to see a panda, red panda and seals in their animals exhibits area. The weather is really hot tho, it makes you just want to stay indoors or somewhere with air con like the panda's area hahaha.
After we finished with Ocean's park, we took a ferry to Harbour City mall. It's a large shopping mall in Tsim Sha Tsui area. They sell some really nice stuff and I got myself a cool jacket that was on sale in one of the shops there. We spent a couple hrs there until sunset until the weather cooled down a bit before we headed to Ladies market again. We just wanted to check it out and get ourselves a couple of souvenirs before we fly back tomorrow. It's kinda sad that my holiday has almost come to an end :(

After lunch, Darren and Tum had to go back to city and to the airport, so David and I continued checking out the temples near the area. Once we finished, we caught the bus back to Admiralty area and checked out the Pacific Place mall. It's one of HK's swankiest malls. We like it there because it's got air-con. It sells all the high end brands like LV and Burberry. We hung out there for a while and then we moved on to Causeway bay, which is only 2 train stops away from Admiralty. Causeway Bay is one of HK's major shopping districts with Times square and SOGO. We didn't even get to check out SOGO because it was getting really late and everything was starting to close. Oh well, put that on the list for the next HK trip:)
