</div><div>i've actually been quite good this semester, attending all my classes and have been doing my work ahead of its deadline. it feels good to be organized and on top of the workload. but today i was pulled aside by my study advisor and a previous lecturer and they sat me down, saying that they're a bit concerned because of my group project and my participation for it last semester. everything they said made sense, but after what they said, i wanted to tell them so badly that last semester i had lost all motivation and i really didn't care. what's more, is that it's hard to feel dedicated and involved in a project when the groupmates don't include you in their discussions or just don't listen to you. it just makes you feel like crap and don't wanna do anything. but of course, i didn't. i just sat there and nodded the whole time.</div><div><br />
</div><div>i really feel that i'm picking back up and i actually have some motivation to do well in the courses this semester again. i really hope i can keep it up and show them that it was a temporary thing and it was only for that one class...<br />

</div></div><div><div style="text-align: left;">i was looking forward to finally being in a western society again... going back to that way of learning, interacting, living... i wanted to go and see the city, learn the 'Brit' way... especially if i was very possibly going to be living there in the future. and i can't lie, i wanted to go to be closer to Fil, which after four months now, has proven long distance relationships are hard, because they're a huge strain on emotions and on the heart. even when everything else is fine, the sole feeling of missing that person kills. and the final reason... i really wanted to go to london for exchange simply because i'm so unhappy here in hong kong and in my environment. i've found it so difficult to make and maintain friendships here because the mentality is just so different. i've began to feel all alone again here, and now with my new roommate, i really feel like i have no one to talk to here. i was really looking forward to getting away for a few months, being happier, learning better... </div></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</script></div><div><div style="text-align: left;">So here's a little update.</div></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div></div><div><div style="text-align: left;">Initially, I had planned on going to Sheffield/Newcastle in December during Christmas holidays. Then I got to think about how long it would have been since I've seen Fil if I don't see him until then... almost 7 months! Which is just insane. So I decided to take a two week trip to the UK this Sunday. Although we won't have a lot of money to spend, the time alone will be enough. I'm really looking forward to this trip! First time in Europe, first time in the UK, first time to meet his family and friends... I'm super stoked and I can't wait to be there already...!<br />
<br />
The concept of spontaneity is growing on me. Last year was a trip to Tokyo, this year is the UK!</div></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

i had forgotten what it feels like to party and not care what anyone else thought<br />
it's so refreshing to meet a new group of people that i can feel so comfortable around<br />
for so many reasons i can relate much better to them than other people i've met in hong kong<br />
really happy that it all happened. <br />
better late than never right? <br />
Honestly this week has been by far one of the best weeks I've had all year!<br />
so i'm gonna try to make the most out of the next month or so<br />
<br />
<br />
it wont be long until Shanghai and then I can head home to my family and my lovely friends whom i miss so so much!!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">These have been on the market in Hong Kong for a while now</div><div style="text-align: left;">It's suppose to release fatique and pressures in your legs and also reliefs of water retention problems, which is actually a pretty common problem for girls and causes their legs to look/feel/be bigger than they really are!</div><div style="text-align: left;">I've finally read about a few user's comments and decided to try them out</div><div style="text-align: left;">They retail for about $249HKD (a little bit on the pricey side I think)</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">I've only tried them for one night but here's what I think:</div><br />
<ul><li style="text-align: left;">they don't feel tight or too snug for sleeping, even for my abnormally massive calves, which is good, because who wants to be uncomfortable when they're sleeping?</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">i forgot to measure my legs before and after wearing them to sleep (maybe I'll do that tonight) but my legs felt less tense than usual when I woke up</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">i've always had really tense legs (since i was quite young actually), and after one night, i felt that my legs didn't feel as tight and tense after my walk from the train station to work. </li>
</ul><div style="text-align: left;">Overall I think they were pretty good for the first night and I'm definitely going to keep using them. I'll keep posting if anything DRAMATIC happens (I doubt it) </div></div><script type="text/javascript">

<div>Overall it was a good experience but there is one huge huge huge huge HUGE complaint.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Honestly, Chinese people wonder why they have such a bad reputation</div><div>Yesterday, probably about 70% of the people in the park were from Mainland China.</div><div>They were so rude, so disrespectful, inconsiderate and lacked common courtesy</div><div>I saw them actually push MANY people out of the way in order to get ahead in the line</div><div>Many of them tourists, children or families. </div><div>Even after they pushed you, they would have the nerve to give you dirty looks.</div><div>Seriously, WTF. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I can't really explain the way I feel about this except that I think it's crap</div><div>I can't imagine us ever having to rely on a society like this which seems so uneducated and inproper</div><div>What a total turn off.</div>cat makhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03439063202619185200noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135044048273683808.post-54795758219014775532010-02-13T16:04:00.001+08:002010-02-13T16:04:41.064+08:00to buy or not to buy?<script type="text/javascript">
