cao ni, biatch!

this week has been full of all kinds of hangouts with amy and divya. it's been super sweet. i feel like i have a small community of people i know here. it's a distant feeling that i haven't really had since i left ny. pretty awesome.

more good news: i bought another pair of sneakers. check em out here.....



i don't know how often i'm gonna wear these bad boys, nor did i know how easy they were to find on the internet, but either way they're absurd. its amazing there are friends of mine in hk who dont know what monopoly is. i mean they also dont know other things as we learned last week, but thats another story for another day.

last week i went to this vietnamese restaurant with my friend and she convinced me to try this duck egg. i wasn't thrilled. here's the progressional evidence......




and here's my stupid face eating this shit. does it look like i liked it?????



i was hoping at the very least i would get a chance to vomit as i felt like i had eaten something bad earlier in the day anyway. plus it would make more room to drink more pi jou (beers). it tasted like bad brisket. my d-bag friend literally ate the duck eye and loved it. this is the same asshole who ate the pigeon head the other day. either shes underfed at home or just a fucking moron. i'll stick with the latter. talk about some nasty shit. i ate like 15 chewy japanese candies after this. i still have the flavor in my mouth its basically torture.

we went to happy valley and bet on some horses the other day. i guess i didn't take any photos. good work. i managed to trade my nintendo ds (from korea) in for a psp which has worked out amazingly. i can download games for free. i feel like a 13 year old asian kid. i'll probably get bored of it in a week and sell it to someone for double what it ended up costing me.

i ate congee today for the first time. then i was told that in fact i drank it. i used a spoon so maybe there was some confusion. i have however been looking for a good breakfast and this is probably it. it's a watery mix of rice, vegetables, and a meat or fish of your choice. my choice today was chicken and it was delightful.

im really starting to feel like my mandarin is getting somewhere. my tone still sucks but if i speak fast enough, native mandarin speakers kind of get an idea of what the fuck i'm talking about. oh, i learned how to say fuck. cao (tsao).

cao ni = fuck you!
