we are in the last week of school and its unreal how quick the time has gone
i was aware that it was going to fly by but i didnt think november would come to an end so quick :(
things are becoming routine here and im getting a little sad as i realize that ill be gone from this city... but in other news, i got accepted into yonsei a few days ago so that doesnt mean this study abroad journey will end... yet!!
recap pt.1!!
nov 14: a typical monday: go to bio, eat lunch w kat, go to korean, then go back to the dorms to pretend to do homework or something
-i did a VR experiment during my break but got a little nauseous :(
-we went to udeli (LG/F, student union next to the starbucks!!) they only had their seafood noodles so i ate that
after class, i went to wan&bao to get their spicy cold noodles
-i ate them, but then i threw up :~( darn ......
-glendy was doing her laundry too so it was a little difficult for me to socialize without having the feeling of vomiting every 2 minutes .. its ok because i felt better like 1 dry heave and 1 vomit later
nov 15: went to the doctors, bought crackers, gatorade, and congee for me to munch on the whole day so i can make my stomach feel better... class was gr8 but boring as usual :( whats new
-my bland diet day 1 = killing me
nov 16: high table!! i dont remember what i did on this day but apparently i went to park and shop... i know i had class.... i didnt eat much that day because i had high table...
-last high table for the semester!! we went to loke yew hall so that means we got to wear the harry potter robes!!! lol!!!
-3 course meal: salad with pork belly??, chicken with pasta OR fish, chocolate mousse, coffee or tea
-i sat with joseph, abiel, and anne and it was cool bc i got to know them better and stuff!! it was still a boring dinner but it went by quicker because our guest speaker was quick so thats good i think
after i just went back and did ~work~
nov 17: i threw up in the morning again, booked another doctors appt right after
then i experience diarrhea and bless laura for giving me some of her anti-diarrheas
-it would be like every 2 minutes i would need to go, but each time would have less so i was like ok i think i can go to class
luckily i start later or tuesdays so i wasnt too worried.. but i still had my doctors appt so i needed to book it over there.. i remember preparing my body and walking really fast from LSK to the health center... mapping all the bathrooms in my head just in case i had to go..
-fortunately on my walk to campus, i only had to go once (my last time!!)-- right when i arrived so awesome possum
-i continued to get back into the bland diet: bread, bananas, congee, and aquarius but i didnt have much of an appetite
it was also kickback night so i just sat there, ate a banana, and drank water and aquarius all night :( BUT HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO BLAINE~
nov 18: class, more bland diet, still no more diarrhea so yay! after class, we went to j3 so continue blaine festivities~~ me and laura didnt participate because she had a presentation the next day and i didnt want to have a diarrheal incident in the middle of LKF... so yes
-i started to introduce flavors into my diet: fish ho fun!! i didnt finish it all :( so im sad but i didnt eat any chili oil with it so im proud of myself!!
nov 19: everyone said they had a great time which was good because i wanted them to!! me kat blaine winnie justin went to Australian Dairy Company, then to SOGO
-i was gonna buy birks but there were too many people (actually.. too much people, shoulder to shoulder ridiculous) so we all got overwhelmed and left
we took the star ferry to central, relaxed our senses and went to LKF to visit the festival (thanks jeffrey for telling me that there was one LOL
-we walked around and it was really nice!! i tried a sichuan potato wedge (hehe) while watching the spicy food eating contest (i was so sad because they were looking for volunteers but i couldnt participate bc i didnt want to upset my stomach any more :( )
it was just me kat mitchell and cindy so we walked around to the game booths and had fun with the VR hehe it was fun :~) then we headed back !!!
nov 20: blaine asked me to accompany him on his ~HK showcase~ to vicky and her (yonsei) friends!! yay for spop!!
-we went to mongkok to eat at Kam Wah
-to central because Blaine wanted to buy a jacket at TopShop, vicky wanted to do a facebook live, and christiana&annie ended up at the LKF carnival during the meantime!!
-they all mentioned how overwhelmingly fast-paced HK was and how vicky is amazed at how me and blaine are doing so well with it
we then went to causeway to go to Eslite book store/library to check it out and to also have them try ten ren’s ice cream!! we then parted ways on the way back because they had an AM flight
