BARTENDING

Finished the bartender beginner course and I tried to shake some cocktails at home. It's a great fun to mix cocktails but I couldn't get the alcohol that I want. I need peach schnapps to make Sex on the beach and I couldn't find in any supermarket. Why is that? It's not so rare, is it?

I wanna learn some bartending flair tricks and wanna try it at home but my mom asked me to stop LOL She was worried that if I would break anything!! :D It's very hard to learn but it looks so cool!!

N.T. N.E. HIKING

Went hiking at North East of New Territories today. It's good to breathe some fresh air and go for a hike but it was really hard for me to wake up in the early morning. We met at Tai Po KCR station at 9.15am!!! We all bet that Lim would be late or no show but surprisingly he was the 1st one to be there!!

Our route was from Bride's pool >> Wu Kau Tang >> Sam A Tsuen >> Lai Chi Wo >> Fan Shui Au >> Bride's pool. It wasn't a rough route but we hiked for nearly 7 hours!!

Last month there was a fire and all the trees were burnt. This area was bald and dark!!

The weather wasn't fine today. It was humid and cloudy so the pics look a bit gloomy. I hate this kinda weather!!

I was so tired and I felt like my legs weren't mine!! Next time we should arrange to hike on Sat!!

VICTORIA HARBOUR LIGHT SHOW

Met Vic and Tim after work and then we watched the Victoria Harbour Light Show together. Vic was surprised that it was my first time to see :D Well I'm not tourist!! But I was surprised that Tim has seen 4 times already!! I guess he really likes the show :D

I always want to see the show and take some nice pics but the problem is I really don't like to carry the tripod. It's too heavy!! I didn't really concentrate on watching the show but mainly talk to Tim and Vic coz there were too many people and they blocked my sight.

After watching the show, we took the ferry to Central and then Vic took the airport express to the airport. He was going back to Paris. It was a short night but great!! Hopefully I can see them again soon in Paris!!

STANLEY + LKF

Met Vic & Lau after work & we had a walk at victoria park. Then we went to Stanley coz they haven't been there yet. The shops in Stanley Market were closed but we could still have a look at Murray house. Vic asked me the history of Murray House, what a shame that I don't know it so well! I realise that I don't know Hong Kong wo well :P

It would be better to go to the Stanley during day time but it's still not too bad to walk along Stanley at night.

Then we took the bus to Central & met Peggy & Caroline at LKF. We had some food at Tsui Wah first and then we had a drink at Bulldog. We had nice conversations and we talked all kinda stuff together.

Thanks for Vic to teach me some French!! I should have talked to him more in French!! :D And he recommeded me some French music too!! Cool man!! It was a very great night and I enjoyed a lot!!

VALKYRIE

I wanted to watch this movie since I watched the trailer, I had high expectation on it. I only know it was based a truth story about an operation of Valkyrie that somone was planning to assassinate Hitler.

I know the history and of course I know Hitler wasn't assassinated but the story was boring and unexciting. It's unbelivable that Tom Cruise acted as a German captain. It's not worth to watch it in the cinema!!

YES MAN

Still so sick today and I have a bad cough. I wanted to sleep as much I as wanted but I had bartender class at 2pm so I had to wake up before noon. We learned Rum today and learned few cocktails which are mixed with rum. Oh I wanna try to mix the cocktails at home and I'm going to buy the cocktail shaker. But I have to wait until I have fully recovered :(

After class, we met in Causeway Bay and then shopped around and then had a early dinner at a Japanese Restaurant. Gosh, there were so many people on the street!! Crazy Valentine's Day!! Too commercial!

We watched "Yes Man" after dinner. This movie was very funny and Jim Carrey did a great job!! He was as entertaining as usual but he was less exaggerated in this movie which is good!! A funny sweet story which makes you laugh out loud and feel optimistic!!

We then had some dessert and drink at a bar, this bar was quite quiet and it was a good place to chat and relax.

BARTENDER

I had my first lesson of bartender course today!! It was very fun!! I learned something about the bar utensils and Gin! The teacher taught us to mix Gimlet, White Lady and Singapore Sling and we had chance to taste it. I like the taste of Gin and I often mixed Gin & Tonic at home. Now I'm going to try more different kind of Gin Cocktail :) Yay!!

After class I shopped around, bought a pair of new shoes and then went to FC's home. We had hotpot dinner again!! But what a shame that I'm still sick and I lost the appetite. I didn't eat much. We played PS3 and watched TV until 2am and we left becoz I was too sick. I think I really need to rest more!!

SICK LEAVE

I had bad cough that I felt like I was half dead. I don't know why it's getting worse since I've been on medication. I did nothing at home except sleeping and surfing internet. But it's good that I have a long weekend. A bit worried about my work but I should worry about my health more. It reminds me of what I was infected before! Never again please!! I wanna get well soon!!

KING'S LODGE

Suppose we were going to FC's home on Sat but becoz I have been sick so the party is postponed to the coming Sat. I dunno what's wrong with me, I have rested at home for the whole weekend and now I got another sickness :( I caught a cold!! I have sore throat and cought so I went to see the doctor after work. The doctor said I got Upper Respiratory Infection. Hopefully I can get well soon coz I really don't like taking medicine :(

After seeing doctor, I rushed to AF to have lesson. I was so late!! Luckily I didn't miss something important. And then after lesson I had dinner with Preston, Kelly, Zoe and Kate at King's Lodge. It has been a while for us to gather for dinner!! We had a lot to talk and discuss and it's good that Kate and Kelly are going to France to study!! I wanna go too!!
