Juz got to my apartment, would like to share my fun experiences for the past few days.
June 21st Thurs, Day 1
Nothing notewothy, took a therapeutic sia flight to hk and reached my shenzhen hotel at ard 8+ Not that I like SZ that much, but accoms there is almost a third the price of hk's. Saved more than $50 per night.
June 22nd Friday, Day 2
Took train to hk to look for weizheng, the ABN intern. We had lunch at the chui wah cha chang ting, quite famous I heard, affordable and nice. Went to IFC, the tallest building in HK, as can be seen from my photo, tried Krispy Kreme; too sweet for my liking. Dropped by at his place to chill out and then our mini adventure brought us to the HK expo centre, the turtle-like building along the bay. Crossed over to Tsim Sha Tsui for the laser show, "Symphony of Lights"; overrated in my opinion, once is more than enough, waste of time.

Took some photos on the train ride to HK island, pictures of New Territory, residentials there are around 50-60 storeys, the less developed side of HK
















Photos that I took while we were on the ferry and along Tsim Sha Tsui. What's the name of the viewing gallery facing HK island? I can't remember.























Photos damn nice rite??? I took one lehz. Just realised that I have talent for it, haaa


June 23rd, Saturday, Day 3
A great way to end my stay in Shenzhen. Met Jo, Qiuxin and their shenzhen intern frens, brought me to luo hu business centre for shopping. The fake stuffs there are........... cheap, real cheap. I shall not divulge too much. They brought me to a hunan restaurant which is rather average, and after that we went to "True Color Bar" which is probably one of the best live band pubs I've ever been to. The bands perform a mixture of Chinese, Canto and English songs, a pubbing experience china-style. Drank quite abit, and it was a good, good way to end my stay here in shenzhen.



The Shenzhen interns, can't see jo in the photo, face covered by Adrian, haha, but that's the only grp photo I have
nice photo rite? just a random photo that I took, but din know it will turn out so nice. Don't mind ahz, jo. hah
The different bands. 4 in total, played classics from Zhao Chuan's "xiao xiao niao", "Hotel California", to contemporary ones like liang jing ru's "yong qi". Can't catch the canto songs though. We stayed till 1+am for the last band, a duo, and they sang really well. Adrian was so mesmerised by the female singer that he jioed her out for supper after the gig. We ended up having Mac and chatted with the singer till 3am.
