No place like home...

After two weeks going across a fraction of a couple of the best provinces of China down to Macau and Hong Kong , one can only imagine of an utterly amazing experience I must have had. Besides, spending 5 days in the Metropolitan city of Hong Kong surely must have met up all of the expectation one might have for a city often heard of its wealth and growth in all aspects.

Well, guess again!!

Don't get me wrong, Hong Kong is, in fact, a nice city, with its culture and developments, as any city is, is indeed an extraordinary place to be. However, one thing is lacking, a civilised mindset.

It surely is a shame. In those few parts of China I visited, you can see locals spitting by the corner of the sidewalk, at the corner outside of their own shop, jumping the queue individually and AS A GROUP (>5 person) and feeling nothing about it even after complains from others in line, talking like shouting especially whilst on the phone, smoking in air-conditioned restaurant despite the "NO SMOKING" sign and occasional rudeness. These are but a few that I can remember and the opportunity that I had observing them for the past 2 weeks. Of course, I expect more...hmmm...

In terms of their hygiene, as a whole, well, with the spitting and all, you be the judge!

However, I should comment on their constant use of chlorine in cleaning their dump site and the walkways of their flats. but then again, such constant use of chlorine can spell microbial resistance and a future crisis...

One things is for sure though, people usually say Hong Kong is a shopping paradise. Well, on the contrary I'd say! In terms of choices and varieties, yes, they have more, much more and some quite nice, but in terms of price, I don't see much of a difference. You can sure find loads of branded shops in Hong Kong, but chances are, if there's no sale going on, you're better of shopping those items back at home, be it in Kuching or KL.

What else... let me see...

For all that is lovely and nice:

1) Hong Kong's pastries

2) Portuguese egg tart

3) Musuems

4) BBQ goose

5) Lou Po Peng

6) Public transports

7) Temples

8) Disneyland

9) Casinos

10) Some spectacular sites

11) Suspended bridges

12) Extraordinarily sweet, humongous, juicy lychees

NOte: For the first time, their local food don't impress my palate at all... Nothing special, nothing much...hmmm...

Overall, a splendid experience, one trip that will aware you of the luxury, hygienic practice, multi-linguality, food-blessed Malaysia...

If there's anyone who doesn't appreciate being a Malaysian, try visiting other parts of ASIA. I'm sure you'll be aware of how fortunate you are, of course, despite all the 'little' things happening. Hei! No country is perfect!!

After a very long time...

It's been a long time since I drop something here. Didn't have the mood to drop anything in fact. Don't know why, but, well, now, for the moment, it's back.

So! Where am I now?!??! A 3rd year's student in UNIMAS as a Biotechnology students, well, I am proud of what I have done, especially for my thesis for Kelampayan. I don't know, perhaps it's just too ambitious, but I am hoping to, perhaps, have a publishable thesis? then again, at FYP level? Ha!!! perhaps it will just remain a dream, i guess...it will.

Anyways, It's never too early to dream huh? ^^

I am dead happy that my senior (lab mate) has asked me for a joint co operation in writing up a thesis based on our topics. I really cant wait for it. Just wait till d exams and Final Presentation is over, I do hope to publish something on Kelampayan, hopefully... hahaha...

So much for being a geek, well, It's my final year already!!! Every outing with me pals are all crazy in the least - with shoutings and sickening gestures out in public, we don't really care of the embarassement anymore, well, at least to a certain extent. lolz...

Live has been good, but there are some things that is bugging me, for starters, my job... Don't know when or how.. lolz..

A lil for today...buh bye...ZZzzzz
