My parents have always wanted to visit Venice, take a romantic ride on the Gondola and flow with the breathtaking night lights and architectural structures of Venice. It was such a grateful coincidence that Macau offers alittle bit of that! 
Located inside the 'The Venetian' hotel, - Little Venice - lies cozily in the extravagant hotel where tourists are able to get a sight of what Venice may look like! 

                                       

The Long, segmented and twisted paths that have food stalls on both sides, you'll never get hungry! Trust me ;) 

                             

The Fisherman's Wharf . A once amusement park , now, tourist viewing sight. 

                             

THE VENETIAN. Okay, here comes the girly squeals.  My all time favorite Korean Drama 'Boys Over Flowers' filmed a couple of episodes in Macao and one of the most heartbreaking scenes were shot in Little Venice itself! I felt like a giddy preteen after recollecting the scene over and over again in my head! 

The Cotai jet boat ride back to Hong Kong. I survived! 

OUTFIT TO MACAU : 

Long sleeve blouse - H&M . Sweater - H&M . Chiffon Skirt - H&M  Leggings - Ladies Market . Boots - H&M . Heavy Coat - H&M .   I'm basically covered by H&M! H&M for life!

My sister , Stephanie, and I have been overjoyed to reach one of the spots Kim Hyun Joong has been to! 

IN ALL : Wished that the tour could have extended! Worthwhile and good food awaits! :D 

LANTAU ISLAND - HONG KONG

Last winter break, I had the greatest opportunity to visit the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong. It was a pretty unexpected experience as it kinda brought back cherished memories of my past 12 years in Singapore, the mouth-watering delicacies and grubs to skyscraper buildings and mountain peaks. Hong Kong fits its definition. I've never imagined how our winter fiascos of finding shelter and warmth became such a worthwhile experience.

Hong Kong part 1 - Lantau Island

Once merely a remote monastery hidden by lush, mountain scenery, the Po Lin Monastery made it to the world map when the extraordinary Tian Tan Buddha statue (informally known as the Big Buddha) was erected in 1993. Sitting 34 metres high and facing north to look over the Chinese people, this majestic bronze Buddha draws pilgrims from all over Asia.

After alighting from the 25 minutes cable car ride, we were in for the unexpected. Cold strong winds blew greeted us and a stunning of 4 degrees hits the temperature of Lantau Island. We were basically freezing to the cold! 

This here, is the stairs [note, not escalator] to the Big Buddha which lies on top of the mountain peak. It'was definitely a climb! 

The five notorious San Diego's ! It was such a breezing day, we couldn't separate from one another! 

In All : IT WAS AMAZING! Can't wait to return and explore the whole of Lantau Island

BAZINGA! My Superman

Last Saturday , We had a Rock Climbing activity and it was super duper fun and exhilarating! Not to mention how it test your ability to hold on to the rock holds and push yourself further up the wall. :D 
Yet again, the partners-in-crime had another fashion (coincidental) collaboration.
Big Bang Theory's BAZINGA and Superman logo t-shirt.
Yup, the inevitable happened :D I love moments like this! 

Friday BlueBells

Last friday, 11th January 2012, was another 'coincidence fashion clash' for Daryl and I. 
Blue and White was our theme (which we did not plan beforehand )
