It’s my first trip to Hong Kong and it was quite an experience.

I got a flu and sinus infection less than a week away from my flight and didn’t manage to recover in time. Then I still took the flight while having partial blocked nose. It was a terrible experience because I basically got blocked ears after that. Luckily it went away in half a day and I was with my friend, Xiao Wei, at that time. Her presence definitely calmed me down and not make me panicked due to blocked ears.

It was a 5-day trip and since I was not feeling well, I wasn’t able to enjoy much.

Just gonna post the photos here for memories sake. 😀

Xiao Wei wanted to get her sneakers so we went to the famous Sneaker Street.

The public transit is also quite interesting. There are some similar/exact names of our stations or roads in Hong Kong. Like Admiralty is in North South (red) line in Singapore and it is also red line in Hong Kong!

I have to say the public transit card is so cute!

Something random I spotted while exploring streets at Hong Kong…

Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas! This year is special because I visited the Christmas city and chanced upon one of the highlights for Christmas attractions when I was just scrolling in New York City.

I also managed to get my first cup of bubble tea from Xing Fu Tang in the same shopping mall. 🙂

I am definitely feeling very blessed this Christmas with so many gifts that I got myself. Well, mainly because of the tech refresh that I needed to replace my gadgets. I’m lucky to get to go to US for work trip this year and went to New York – a city that I have always wanted to visit. It is also the origins of some of the brands that I know and love such as Kiehls, Tiffany and Co and Coach. Of course I got the New York exclusives from Tiffany Landmark store. Haha. 😀 Most importantly, I get to explore the city and gained new perspectives in life too. Definitely a great way to end my year even though my wallet is like crying. Haha.

It’s the favourite time of the year again. I went to Marina Bay Sands (MBS) recently and saw their Christmas decorations with Chanel theme this year.

Can’t wait to see more decorations when I fly to New York for my personal vacation this year. 😀 I have always wanted to visit New York and I love Christmas. Hehe.

I went to Bishan Ang Mo Kio Park on 26 October with a guy whom I will never meet again. Weird date and I thought maybe can still give him 1 last chance but apparently he is not interested either. So yeah, maybe it is for the best. The universe is chasing all these potential mummy’s boy out of my way.

It’s a 6.5km hike and a 6.5 hrs date/meetup. 3 hrs was spent on the hike while remaining 3.5 hrs was spent on dinner and him not wanting to split up. Gah, I should have decide faster and just end even earlier. Lol.

Anyway, I did manage to get some good photos and selfies (without him knowing) so I guess it’s better than a complete waste of time? Here are some of the great photos that I took with my new iPhone 16 Pro. I have to say its camera is really good and the level of details captured is really high so I managed to salvage many of my photos with bad lighting using Adobe Lightroom. 😀

I went to The World of Studio Ghibli with my friends, Rui Yun and Eunice, on 5 October 2024. We managed to secure tickets on the first day of ticket sales and using my MBS membership perks, we got 2 for price of 1 tickets. That means 3 tickets for the price of 2 tickets. 😀 Always happy to get savings. Haha.

Even happier when I have friends with similar interests to go for such exhibition with me. 🙂 I’m definitely counting my blessings. The older I get, the harder it is to find friends to hang out with. It’s even harder to make friends now. So glad that our friendship managed to last through 2 decades…

I’m seriously considering buying this skirt since it is the usual style of skirt that I like. Unfortunately I cannot try the size so I didn’t buy it.

After the exhibition, we went to So Pho at MBS for dinner.
