"Live it.Love it." (sounds familiar, doesn't it?)

After so many days of thinking my head off, finally, it’s time for me to unwind…to loosen up…and to take a deep breath of relaxation. But wait, you might be thinking that I’m way too stressed out. Of course, not. I’ve just done a few moments of thinking, that’s all. (oops.. kinda defensive,huh?) :p haha
Now, going back to what I was talking (rather, writing) about. All the while, I was thinking of my surroundings as the world itself (not literally, though) but hey, little did I realize, that there’s much more than just the everyday scenes of jeepneys passing by, vendors of all sorts speaking BiSaYA, our colloquial language, trying to persuade me to buy their goods and people of looks similar to that of mine walking to and fro on the streets in a HOT weather like this. Sabi nga nila, “Only in the Philippines.”
But yes, my trip to Hong Kong awakened my long-dormant instinctive thought that the world has much for me to discover.I guess I was just accustomed to waking up in the same environment daily that I forgot other cultures and surprises, somewhere out there, were up for me to uncover. Being in a place different from what I’ve been used to, feels a little bit awkward at first. Everything was new to me--- meeting different faces speaking a different language which I can barely understand (uh oh, too bad I forgot most of our Chinese lessons back when I was in elementary..hehe) and seeing tall buildings, spectacular Chinese word neon lights, double-deck buses and the long list goes on. I’ve always heard of it from others or perhaps, read it in books etc. but it was totally different when I experienced it myself. Mind you, totally different. It was… astonishing…ravishing…excellent…exuberant.. …awesome…exciting…wow. No words could just define it all--- the place, the people, my feelings (everything..) :o

~~~~Well, here are some pictures I want to share with you. 6 out of the 7 pictures were taken at Disneyland. [CAUTION: if you’re planning to go there, this may ruin your curiosity and excitement... ;p]~~~note: the pictures may take a while for me to upload..pls. bear with it..
