Post poned bday party part 2

Went out to Richmond with Alex, Amaris, Frank, Grace, Martin, Patty and Priscilla.

As usual, Martin got lost and was late so we had to meet up w/ him @ Coquitlam station instead of Henderson cuz he dunno where it @.

Arrived in Richmond and had lunch @ Ninkazu's across from Aberdeen Centre. Word of advice: Do not believe the hype from food blogs! Ninkazu is nowhere near as good as Richmond Sushi! Even though it is cheaper by $2 or 3 per person, it's not worth it!

Then we headed over to E-spot for some Pool. It was fun!

After heading home, we had dinner @ Westwood Cafe and ended the day by heading over to Patty's for games and snacks.

Thanks to everyone who attended and for the birthday presents as well!

Bday

Late post but spent my bday (April 17th) sleeping in, went out to eat lunch @ Kirin restaurant @ Henderson till 3. Went out grocery shopping for steak and red wine. Then chilled @ home and relatives from Mom's side came over.

March 20th, 2010 - Vancouver outing with Patty and Alex

Went out to downtown and walked around pacific centre for a bit. I bought my brother a blue North Face Venture jacket there. Walked around downtown for a bit then decided to take the sea bus to north van. Had lunch @ McD's there and then went to Park Royal mall by 239 bus. The mall was fancy and Alex bought a black North Face Venture jacket. Then went back to Downtown and walked around the gastown district. Kinda scary w/ all the homeless ppl. Alleys smelling like piss and whatnot. Picked up an online order from HAVENshop (NSW coach jacket). However, I didn't like the quality and decided to exchange it for something else @ a later date. Headed back home after that.

March 22, 2010 - update, picked up a pair of SI Shadow pants.

Last day in HK.

Woke up early to have dim sum with Uncle Albert.

(Please excuse overexposure)

Just packed up, rested a bit. Then went out to Harbor City for lunch with my uncle. Just had Cafe de Coral (mixed bbq meats + rice). After lunch, I grabbed a pair of black cargo pants there. Very light; I likey. Uncle Albert bought a pair of cotton pants: beige coloured. Afterwards, just headed back home and chilled for the rest of the day.

Went to Fung Sing for dinner with Uncle Albert and Uncle Fuu. Then just headed off to airport.

I'm gonna miss HK; wonderful family and friends here.

But yea, gotta really thank Uncle Albert for taking care of me for the past 1.5 weeks.

Can't wait to give everyone their stuff when i get back home to Van.

And of course, can't wait to see them.

1 week 3rd day

Look @ which store I visited again...

For Grandma back home in Van.

After got back home, I chilled out for a bit and then went out to Maxim's cafe for lunch with Uncle Albert. Then we ran some errands (visit bank, etc.) and headed home afterwards. While he was taking an afternoon nap, I went out bought some more gatsby and snacks.

At around 7, I went out to TST with Martin for lunch @ Fairwood (Tai Fai Wood) for just a quick meal.

We went back home to Hung Hom and then shopped around Jusco for some more gifts for my little cousins. I got some candies and some hair scrunchies for them.

Then we went to Wonderland (HK's mini Toys R Us) and I grabbed some more capsule toys. I love those things.

Went back and packed up half of my stuff (with Martin's help) in advance for leaving tomorrow. Did the brotherhood handshake and parted. I'll see ya homie in 2 months.

1 week day 2.

Woke up early to buy my mom's tote bag.

Does it look good on me? HAH

Then went to a local toy store. Spent a good 30 min in there and bought these for the cousins.

Hung around home for a bit; then went out to ParknShop to pick up some more hairspray and Gatsby. After I got back home, headed out to Prince Edward for dinner with Uncle Khong and Uncle Fuu. The fish was big.

1 week in.

Alright, so woke up, got dressed and stuff. Went to ParknShop to grab some gatsby gel and hair spray cuz I had a lunch appointment with a pretty girl. Then went out to TST for the lunch buffet with Martin and Hilary @ Yumm (Miramar hotel). The food quality was top notch but I did not like the lack of variety. The variety was pitiful compared to last time's buffet.

Then Martin and I explored and ended up using most of our time at Causeway Bay and TST. I met up with my Godmother (Aunt Yip) @ Wan Chai to give her some chocolates. I actually ended up buying her another pack of chocolates just incase the ones I brought from Canada were crushed from the flight. $250 HKD for that box.

Went back home to rest for a bit. Then headed out to pick up my glasses. Martin and I ended up playing those toy capsule machines for a couple of rounds. Then he went home and I went to Cafe de Coral for dinner. Just grabbed a rice with 2 different kinds of bbq meats + cold drink. Only $36 HKD. Afterwards, I went to grab Uncle Albert a bottle of wine for taking care of me for the past week; hope he likes it.

Also, I forgot to post up a gift that Aunt Yip gave my family last night.

6th day in HK

So woke up this morning and had dim sum with Uncle Albert. Then headed back home and hung out for a bit. Uncle Albert went out to China and I went for a snack with Martin (lunch in his case). We window shopped around the TST area and I finally ended up getting my jeans from Take 5 Jean shop. They were nice enough to put my jeans in a denim tote bag (cool).

Yes, that's right. Those are my jeans standing upright by themselves LOL. Good old jeans. Made in Japan ftw.

Also got Patty's jeans and a shoulder pack (easier and more compact to carry than my current Roots bag).

Martin ended up getting his ring from TST haha. Went out to dinner with Uncle Wor and his wife @ 6:30-ish. Had hot pot.
