A little more Chinese everyday

Time flies...another weekend comes and goes and it is over before you know it. Homework was brutal and I will turn it in tomorrow morning, but this weekend was not only just about homework because it really felt good to step back in the court again.

How classes are like...

Chillin with Conrad in Comp104 Lecture.

Let's look back at this past week and the many things I have done. Classes of course were the main thing and they were no jokes too. With the rapid increase of workloads coming my way, it sure makes me miss the good ol' days when I had absolutely nothing to do, but a little challenge never hurts anyone and I managed to get myself even busier with other stuff anyways.

Last Thursday, on the 17th, I went down with a couple of my friends, Ritvik and Apinun, to the Hong Kong Persons office in Kwun Tong and finally picked up my Hong Kong ID card. Sure makes me feel weird getting my Thai ID card out of my wallet and replacing it with the HK one, but now I don't have to carry my Passport with me around anymore. Right afterwards, we headed to Hang Hao so Ritvik could pick up his iPhone 4.0 after waiting far too long for it since the shop would not give it to him without the real ID card and we only had our temporary ones beforehand. We sat there at the shop for quite some time, but it was worth it because I also got to make a postpaid phone contract with the "Three" company and it is much cheaper than the Prepaid one that I have been using.

In a friend's room

On Saturday, we went straight to Tsim Sha Tsui to hang out there and do some shoppings of course ;) I got some plane t-shirts to wear from there but a friend of mine actually bought the new iPod touch for 2300HKD and he has been making me want one for myself ever since. I gotta say that I'm really tempted and the price here really isn't bad at all compared to the price that it will be in Thailand. But my friend was the one who bought the last one in stock from the store. I guess my wallet was saved by the bell indeed.
