Busy week!! part 1

Last week has been incredibly busy!!

Tuesday – uni pub. Walked home with Gaelle when the pub closed at one, but met so many people on our way home that we spent one and a half hours to walk the ten minute way it usually takes! =) Was a lot of fun, had many nice conversations! =)

Wednesday - The usual three hours lecture about movies was great this time as well! Next time we are having a presentation on the cultural differences between two movies! Went directly from school to the train station and met with Tom who needed to buy some stuff. Of course we ate our usual dinner at Cheung Chi before leaving. =) Tom has been talking about bamboo and kyrasin for a couple of weeks now, and I´ve been wondering what dangerous stuff he was up to. On Wednesday I found out. He can do really cool stuff with a stick on fire! =) Have some pics of it, though they are of poor mobile camera quality. Tim, me and Fantasia spent two hours watching Tom doing fast and furious stuff that lit up in the dark! We even got to try for a little bit when the flames where are about to go out. The temperature has risen the last days as well, so it was a nice way of spending a couple of night hours outside in a t-shirt!







Thursday - Stanley market, flowermarket and party! Tom and I went to Stanley Market on the other side of HK Island. Takes one hour to get to Central from uni and another 30 minutes on a bus to Stanley Bay. It is a known and very touristy market, but they have some nice things and the place is definitely worth a visit just because of the scenery you pass on the bus ride to get there and to catch some of the atmosphere at the very market. Flower markets are traditional during Chinese New Year celebrations and so we had to visit one and chose the largest one in Causeway Bay. It was packed with people and they had one-way street signs at the whole area to avoid chaos. Chinese people are truly organised. Everyone walked the right way! Afterwards we had beers at seven eleven (only 6dollars for a can) and sim sim (sort of fish dim sum on a stick) from a street kitchen. Found a nice bar to sit in for a while as well! Afterwards, we went to Cavern to celebrate Louis´ birthday and every exchange student showed up and we had a blast! Got home at four..
