cold brrrrrr!

21 days and counting.

we're on a prolonged cold spell and the hong kong observatory confirms that this is the longest cold spell in 40 years.

it's no fun, and it's wreaking havoc on everyone's health. i, for one, have been downed with a flu over the lunar new year weekend, and am now suffering a bad throat from the very very dry air.

i'm seriously hating it!

rat

the year of the rat is officially here!

today is chinese new year. and the atmosphere in hk is simply electric. malls and groceries are abuzz til past midnight. restos are filled to the brim. and new year fairs are fully packed.

seeing all these plus feeling the chilly winter breeze, you just can't help but feel quite festive too - not exactly party-hearty festive, but more like high-serotonin festive.

i don't think my friends are feeling the same festive high as i am. plus i think they'd prefer to just rest (we're all dead stressed at work).

so as much as i'd want to in the middle of the festivities, i don't want to be in it alone. i'll just feel like a loser. so i opted - reluctantly - to just head home.

now, here i am, home alone, munching on low-fat popcorn, sitting in front of the computer, answering random just-for-fun quizzes from blogthings, and blogging. so much for being in the middle of chinese new year's eve festivities.

kung hei fat choi! 恭喜發財 萬事如意! prosperity and success in the year of the rat!

gotta snooze now.

can i cheat on my guy?

blogthings says:

Guys Think You're Easy to Be With... But Not Easy

And you're crafty enough to get away with it! But you probably wouldn't cheat... (Unless the relationship was pretty much over)

Could You Cheat On Your Guy?

thanks missy!
