This week I have been really tired and every day after
school I have gone somewhere for dinner with friends and come straight back
home and been in bed by 9pm. Now I am not a morning person anyway, but getting
up at 6.30am every morning has been really hard this week. School has been
good, but I have felt really tired by the end of each day and I feel like this
week has really dragged.
I have been sorting out what I need for getting my Visa in
Hong Kong, the school have booked my flights for 8am Sunday. Naturally, they
were the cheapest ones that they could find and I fly to Shenzen and then take
a 2 hour bus to Hong Kong. It’s been an average of 32 degrees, most buses don’t
have air conditioning and I get travel sickness really easily. Great. The
school have also given me an allowance to book my own hotel, which I finally
got round to doing today.
After school yesterday Doreenda, Amanda, Anna and I went to
try a new restaurant that I have been wanting to go to ever since I got here.
Not far from the school there is a lake and there are tons of restaurants
around it and I had heard about a Malaysian restaurant that I wanted to try, so
we went there. Now I have never eaten Malaysian food before (so this is my new
thing for the week) but the food was really good, we each ordered a dish and an
appetiser each and tried a bit of everything, it was delicious! I’m quite proud
of myself actually as I am a really fussy eater, a few years ago I never would
have tried the things that I am trying now. We had a really lovely evening next
to the lake and then got a taxi home and I was in bed by 9pm again.
After school I went for dinner with Anna, Amanda and Raena
in the city. We went to the Kros nest (another place I have wanted to go to but
never been) and we all shared a pizza which is their speciality. We ordered the
medium pizza and it came on its own tray and nearly filled up our table it was
that huge! The pizza was really good though and we were there for ages just
chatting. That is my favourite kind of night out, just going for a meal and
chatting with friends, not going to a smoky bar and not being able to talk over
the music. I must be getting old! We got a taxi back home and it was 9pm when I
got to my apartment.
