The visit

Tuesday (28/10):
And so came my sis to my campus for that insane 3 days 2 night 'field trip' of hers. Didn't do much that day other than touring the place and making a visit to the nearby Giant to replenish my apparent depleting stock of junk food.

The gym. See that area above the Digi advertisement? Yeah. That's where I work out during my free time.


One of the computer rooms in the computer lab.

I think she was on Facebook

School of Fashion?

Microbiology lab

Examination hall. We snuck up to the forbidden floor for like, 2 minutes. Don't look at me! She insisted it!

FYI, my bed's on the right. Neat and tidy, ain't it? NOT. My sis even bombarded a portion of my roommate's desk with that toaster of mine!

Wednesday (29/10):
I swear, my room is a hell of heat-trapper. It's like living in a mild sauna in the morning, then a preheated oven by mid morning, a porcelain heater all through the afternoon and, even during the night, a thermoflask or some sort, keeping the hot air trapped in the room until it's literally impossible to sleep. What the heck happened to the continuous downpour of the monsoon season since the week before last?! I miss that! At least the air stayed cool all day long and I don't sweat like a pig and had my hair matted to my head. I hate smelling like dung.

Anyway, I pitied my sis, being cooked up in my room like a chicken being roasted over a fire. The suffering would be less had she came last week. Oh well. So, we spent as much time outside (and I don't mean sunbathing, mind you) as possible, taking a looooooong lunch (by chewing endlessly on the food) and lingering in air-conditioned shops, like Watson, on the way back to the campus.

At Fun OK (try saying it in Cantonese)

Vanilla milkshake, provides enough glucose for your body to last at least a month

I would probably say the same for my Blue Mountain drink

'Da bao' the milkshake. Saved all the fuss, and not to mention plastic bag.

Decorations

To prolong our time at the cafe to savour the cool air

The killer bear

Reached the hostel around 4pm, took a short nap, a quick shower and then it was pasar malam time! Seriously, even the press of bodies and the heat coming from the 'open-cooking' couldn't beat the heat in my room. Sheesh.


Thursday (30/10):
My sis couldn't be more thrill to leave one place. Especially when we were heading to a place with an opposite climate - the ice-skating rink! It might as well snow.

But first thing's first, lunch at Secret Recipe!
The sinfully delicious seafood macoroni with cheese

My expression said it all

Sis requested to take a photo with Joanne, so I had one taken too =)


In case you're wondering, I wasn't drenched in sweat. I just had my bath

One and a half hour later...
If only it was frigid cold in there...

My cousins

Hui Qing, me, sis and Hui Mei

Weeeeee...
