when i woke up this morning, i was pissed. i didnt get much sleep and was making myself go to the gym. at 9:30, i wish i knew how great of a day today would turn out to be. i went to the gym, got some breakfast (beef omelette with rice @ hk$38) and got ready for school. i went to school and had my favorite teacher for 2 hours and then akiko and I decided to take a walk. at this point, 2 great events took place:
a) we planned on going to the nike sportswear store to catch up with my buddy miles (american name) cause he said they were having a small sale today. we first stopped and picked up these rice noodles that were amazing and only hk$13~us$1.75. delightful. we stopped in the sogo and failed and then went to the onitsuka tiger store which may be top 5 stores in hk. awesome shit and hot girls wearing cool sneakers. damn it. akiko got some sweet velcro silver patent lo's and i kept it together and was able to not buy the black patent sapporo 72's as hard as that was. we did however finally make it to nsw and i did buy these bad boys at a steep discount......
fuck. that means until yesterday i owned nearly 100 pairs of sneakers, none of them being dunk mids. and now within the past 2 days, i've bought 2 pairs. talk about not giving a shit. these are sweet and i can't wait to rock them in hk. and then?
b) on the way home from the nsw store, after parting ways with my classmate, i smelled the sweet odor of street food. typical street food in hk is fish balls or waffles. in this case, sweet potatoes. thats right, my favorite food in the whole world: sweet potatoes. this mobile oven was literally across the street from my apartment, as it has been since i've moved in. sadly, i've been too much of a vag to stop and try it. sometimes i fear people. in this case, i'm furious at myself for waiting this long. so for hk$10~us$1.50 i bought a whole baked sweet potato. it was fucking awesome. that's right. bold letters. i am going to eat these everyday til i leave this place.
what a day! sweet kicks and sweet potatoes. shaboom!

Wish I would have known you liked sweet potatoes so much. We have them here a lot, just baked in tin foil and ready to eat. Btw, in a recent post I have a video of a restaurant that gives out tea and sweet potatoes to roast on the fire while you wait for your table to be called. www.abpinkorea.blogspot.com
