Hong Kong people are fairly rude - but I don't think they mean to be. The bartender at Tonic was rude. They brought the bill 10x faster than our drinks came (ask Carin). And I bought a band-aid for my toe at a street vendor whom I bargained for 2 band-aids, he took my money then wouldn't give me my 2nd one! WTF! The street light changed and I was already 20 mins late for dinner. I'm such a wimp.
The weather is awesome, comfortable and pleasant. A little rain but 25-30 C these days.
My own system is utterly messed. Sleeping at 3am every night is bad. Napping is disastrous. But it was fun hanging out with Carin and others this weekend. Also going to the Golf simulator (yikes, two rounds next weekend in Taipei with customers), random DSLR shots in my neighbourhood, and my grand aunt's 90th birthday banquet!
Sloanies 2008 were getting together tonight, and Sloanies '07 are having dim sum tomorrow. Then I'll go for a hike in New Territories... with my awesome new camera. I know how to use WB White Balance now (thx to my 2nd cousin tonight... he is pretty quiet... until you talk to him about cameras, awesome!).
