nasaan si 'wally'?
it has been a week since we moved office from central to tst. still, i'm not yet used to waking up about 20 minutes earlier every freaking working day. more than that, i have to endure mtr daily rush as i'm interchanging now to mong kok line unlike the usual direct route before. it's hell more than double the fare now; and i have to walk a long way 'cause gateway is far by the nearest mtr exit.
people in this side of the island eat lunch the filipino time. at 12.15 noon, you can smell food already; unlike in central that people won't stand for lunch until it is 15 to 1pm. for a week i've been eating almost at the same fastfood court…and to my dismay it's a lot pricey than what i've been consuming in central! every meal is atleast 40 dollars here. like the fare, it's almost double than before.
is this my ill-fated way to end the year?
p.s. but i have to say that my place is so much nicer and bigger and comfortable now.
it's only now until a friend pointed to me out that the lyrics of the song 'Burn' by Tina Arena is somewhat devilish….hmm…what do you think?
Do you wanna be a poet and write | Do you wanna be an actor up in lights
Do you wanna be a soldier and fight for love | Do you wanna travel the world
Do you wanna be a diver for pearls | Or climb a mountain and touch the clouds above
Be anyone you want to be | Bring to life your fantasies
But I want something in return | I want you to burn, burn for me baby
….
Ill lay down on your bed of coals | Offer up my heart and soul
But in return | I want you to burn | Burn for me baby
….
I want you to burn baby ooh | Laugh for me
Cry for me | Pray for me
Lie for me | Live for me
Die for me | I want you to burn
Burn for me baby
we just moved office today. starting tomorrow, i will be going to tst for work…a couple more dollars for fare compared to my usual causeway-central routine…i packed some things in the office this morning (which is nothing but scratches) and they'll have it move to tst. they'll let us open our things not until 4PM today, so i decided to go home first…
'will see my new spot in awhile. hope it'll be better.
i arranged piles of clothes in my drawer. i think i wear too much colorful now!
one of the better things here in hong kong is that people care less. they don't mind what you wear or what you look like, and i liked it that way. back home, people give attention way too much! if you looked different or you dress up weirdly, a dozen pair of eyes will follow you…i could just imagine they even rotate their heads like that of an owl! and our neighborhood at home is just a fine example…
so, while i'm here and i value my freedom most, i just had….an anime haircut! cool! hahaha
it's exactly one month before going back to the philippines! so excited!
