Hello, hello!

My apologies, again, for being MIA here but I do have a good reason. Last week, I was abducted by aliens and they flew me to Singapore for a three-day stay and gave me enough time to watch a concert, go to a few tourist-friendly places and enjoy their food and lastly, take photos in between those activities.

Well, no, of course I wasn’t abducted by aliens… they don’t exist! =)) I did, however, flew to SG but I was with a friend. To sum our trip: We basically LOL’d around Singapore. We got lost, had our funny moments, acted like shameless tourists, went places.

I think that country will always be a place for me to visit with friends instead of with family members. This was my 2nd time in the country and like the first time, I went there with friends from school. I doubt I’ll be going there again with family.

During our first day of stay, we first had lunch at TCC in Orchard road. After that, we split up with the group and my friend and I were on our way to the SG Botanical Garden. I blame the advertisement we found on the in-flight magazine of CebuPac for bringing this place to our attention, hahaha. That night, we went to the Marina Bay Sands and had our dinner there. Roamed around the mall and went to find their casino. Our last stop was at Kinokuniya bookstore and twas followed by my sudden death from visual suffocation. Hahaha, I saw too many books I couldn’t handle what I saw.

I’ll let the photos do the talking!

Trivia: The title refers to my last visit to Hong Kong which was 5 years ago. Back then I was 17 years old, life was different then. I felt that I saw the good side of Hong Kong and in a different perspective in that time. This time, I’m seeing HK in a new light. As an adult, as a 20-something, as a soon-to-be-graduate!

A lot of things happened last week. This is one of them.

First off, I had an impromptu trip to Hong Kong with my dad to help him with his business. Then there’s also our graduation last Saturday. All of these happened just last week, in one week. Talk about a very cramped schedule.

This post, however, will just be about my HK trip.
