today i hung out w/ wini and vivv.....i think i'm really gonna miss spending most of my weekends with them when i go back to van =(
anywayz....today i "volunteered" to be vivv's hair model for her hair class this afternoon...i thought it was going to be so bad since she told me she would have to corn roll my hair...but turns out she only had to practice a little....haha....what acutally happend was she had to CURL...like massively curly my WHOLE head.....haha....it was so funny cuz she kept complaining about how much hair i have and that it would take forever to curl my hair.....it didnt take THAT long...but she did a good job!! =DDD keke....yay....then they were supposed to use their creativity to design as many hair styles as they could with the curled hair....vivv ended up doin 4 styles on me....err....kinda...haha...very "cao kay" did some styles...haha..while the other students spent a lot of effort....vivv's effor was very "vivian"..kaaka....but still looked nice!!! thx =D then wini came and "rescued" us.....we left soon after she came.....and i finally got that "Flora" shirt i wanted at Izzue!!! it was on sale! keke....then after went to eat at KFC and watched FLIGHT PLAN!!! which was GOOD!! i liked IT!! the whole movie's mood was really tense and "lan hai" scary...but it's not really....but it did make me want to keep on watching till the end! no boring parts! haha.....jodie foster's acting was great...of coz la.....anywayz....great movie! =DDD then we walked around cwb for awhile....wanted jap & dessert...but no luck...nothing good to be found.....oh yea...wait..thx to wini i got a "new bra"....kakakaka..anywayz...yeaaaaaaa....soon after we both left since cwb was boring us...haha....=PPPPP

SFU Alumni Event @ Landmark tonite was KEWL!...

today i went to the SFU alumni event at landmark with terry, chris, and ivor.....it was SO COOL! haha....it is the 40th anniversary of SFU and the president, Micheal Stevenson (i know his name now! hahhaaa) is on an Asia tour and one of his stops is Hong Kong (his last stop actually)....it is also the 25th anniversary of the SFU alumni association in HK...anywayz...i guess it was a lot to celebrate...haha..it was held in the Gloucester Tower on the 43rd floor!! so coooool..the view was quite awesome!!! =DD but it was kinda awkward being at an alumni event when we STILL have not graduated yet!! hahah....just that we are exchange students in HK..and they decided to invite us as well =DD keke...anywayz....the president came around and stopped to talk to us..it was sooo weird....not much to say to him....haha...but we also took pics with him as well..kakka =PPPP we were telling him how we like SFU a lot more than HKU (which is the truth!!! i mean i know what is quality education now!! hahah..or maybe it's just the business profs at HKU)....oh well.....the BEST part of the night was of course the FREE FOOD and OPEN BAR!!!! hahah.....at first these ppl brought around dishes with cute little fiinger food....which were quit interesting...and also orange juice too..which i had like 3 cups...but terry had at least 6!!!! ahhaa.....she was "high" on vitamin C...kakkakaa.....=PPP anywayz...slowly we migrated to the food area and just kept on eating all the dishes..hahaa....and omg the desserts were sooooo yumeeeee.....carrot cake!!!! which i havent had in SO long!!! and also they had the cutest strawberry tarts which smelled so good too....that was the best...and there were these pure white and dark chocolate balls!! omg delicious to the MAX!!!! =DDDDD *droolz*...keke....and then the president gave his speech...he mentioned so many new things going on at SFU BBY..and all these new buildings....and me and terry were like HUH? where are these buildings? did all these things happen within the 3 months we were gone???? and C lot is gone now too? omg is B lot moved even farther too? crap....i hope when i come back i still recognize SFU!!!!!! and he kept talking about the north and south side of SFU BBY...and i was like where? haha....so lost..i dunno my home campus very well at all!!! =( anywayz...while he was talking on and on about SFU....kinda reminded me how much i miss vancouver....i mean just these past weeks i have been saying how much i love HK and starr hall and how much i dont want to leave....but then tonight's event and his speech reminded me i do also miss my home...=( one of the things i've learnt on this exchange is that i don't think i'll ever get the best of both worlds....there's always things i have to give up or leave behind =( oh well....life goes on i guess =)
anywayz....funnee thing is we saw owen..one of our 254 TA's...haha....no more BLUE hair and gangster style! hahaa..he looked so SEE MUN..haha..that's why i didnt recognize him.....but he recognized terry tho! haha...=PPP he looked so embarrassed when i asked him where his blue hair went...kakaka.....anywayz..so after some picture taking....we left and now i am here in hall and it's SO quiet cuz most of the locals are at home for the weekend......and the freshmen are outside dem gun cheers.....i can hear them loud and clear...."we are stars we are stars we are starrians....we will get we will get the champions...." hahaha...i know...the cheers are SO GAY....."we are starrians of pokfulam road".....keke....but no matter how gay they are...i still love starr hall...last night me and sabrina were talking about how when we first moved in....our perception of hall wasnt very good...we just thought we bought a bed space and that's all...but as time passed we have grown to love our hall and the "gwai sook gum" just comes from the orientations and floor/unit events....and i guess just as time passes......you start to grow fond of a place..especially the ppl there.....and there's always st going on here...every night almost.....like floor soup...floor meeting....cleaning...unit gatherings....and when nothing is happening that night....it seems awkward....oh wellz....rite now i just hope i dont get reverse culture shock!!!!
anyhoo...tomolo is HKU open day!! and starr hall has open day tooo!!! ppl come and seeeeeeee =DDD (if you're in HK and have nothing to do =PPPP)
