Sunday.
For the early part of the day, I had to explore the city on solo since Cassey had Sunday church service until late in the afternoon that day. So I took the 30-minute MTR ride to Mongkok, where I stayed and did some window shopping and photo ops at Langham Place – a mall that’s adjacent to the hotel and rises at 13 floors high. Since I had liberal amount of time to spare, I decided to watch a movie, and what better choice of flick to watch other than Transformers II: Revenge of the Fallen?

Third row from screen... goodluck to me!
Allow me a bit of segue about the movie. I.SO.VERY.MUCH.LOVED.IT!!! Of course, the whole Shia LeBeouf-Megan Fox thing was a big factor for me BUT the movie in its entirety deserves a five-star rating in all august opinion. The movie’s got it all – wicked and sexy humor, a touch of human drama, hard-core metallic action between the Autobots and Decepticons, plus the musical scoring was one hell to die for. Seriously. I recommend that if you’ve nothing to do and you’ve got broadband access, better get a copy of the OST. Truly a two-thumbs-up! ^_^

At the end of the day, my mall tripping wasn’t at all that worthless, for I was able to buy this really cute kitty cat stuff from one of the shops where they’d let you choose the pieces or ornaments you want and they would gladly glue them all together for you in a bit of half an hour. ‘Love it! ^_^
A day in Langham. Bow.
Meow! ^_^
Later that night, I met up with Cassey, Elisha, and Jhun, while Patrick caught up a few minutes later. It was time for some night market action, and as usual my girl’s got her hands full with a couple of new shoes on sale. I, on the other hand, ended up buying this really cute shoulder bag at some stall in one of the nearby malls. The seller would never let me have it for more than HKD 20 off, so I just had to give in because I couldn’t get my hands off the lovely thing. As Cassey puts it, it was one of those rare occasions when I’d end up buying something with her in tow. Nevertheless, I was happy with the purchase even If I had to let go of a few more shilling than I originally intended to.
Dinner with friends at Mongkok
Night Market Scene
We were all drained and dead tired during the ride back home. Elisha and Patrick still had work the other day, so Cassey and I were really dyahe that they accompanied us on our night market shopping spree. Oh, and the weather was still a bit gloomy the entire day but I guess a bit more of the sun was beginning to show up compared to last time. The next day was supposed to be Disney Day, yey!
(To be continued…)

Transformer 2 had it all, even racist robots with a gold tooth or so they say. About the only thing missing was a story. There also were some big discrepancies that drove me batty like the scene where they went into the Smithsonian in DC. It drove me nuts to see them come out the other side into a grass field with mountains around. What happened to the buildings and DC traffic? There are no fields like that in DC. It was so obviously the Southwest and didn't even look like the East Coast. The movie was great for the action scenes and for seeing Megan and the fight scenes made it worth it though. Although I wouldn't say it was 5 stars like the Godfather or even as good as T2.
Can't wait until Harry Potter starts. Thinking of even going Wednesday.
Hi Kevin, yeah me so excited as well for the Harry Potter flick... am going to see it on its opening day ^_^
