I was in need of Adobe Suite, so I made my way to Wan chai and bought it for 220HKD. (It was originally 250, but my uncle talked it down. You can haggle for illegal software; only in Asia.)

I am currently living by myself and I feel I've grown 100x times more independent. Here are some pictures of my apartment, it still lacks a homey feeling..it's currently in the works. I miss my apartment in San Jose. I miss being able to rest my feet on the cheap IKEA table. What I have in the refrigerator. The necessities.
Dining area. I have no hangers, so I have to use chairs for my jackets
Living area with my little television set
My bed..it's a bunk bed, so if you want to stay over..feel free. We can be bunk buddies.
Canned Soup and Corn Flakes (cereal is quite expensive here)
Destination: Hong Kong

Welcome to my blog!
I'm quite excited in documenting my day to day journey in Hong Kong. I'll try to keep my post interesting, fun, and with loads of pictures.
My flight to Hong Kong consisted of eating and sleeping. The food on United was disgusting when compared to Asiana's bibimbap (popular korean dish). Also the portions were small, I was craving for seconds, but I didn't want to look like a fat kid. There were two grown men sitting in the row next to me who were satisfied with the portion. Goodness..I feel fat.
My goal in Hong Kong is to lose weight. You feel the pressure when you are around girls that look model thin. (throwing my fist in the air)
