first part is almost edover

one week is almost over. my first week of not being in the philippinesone week is almost over. my first week of not being in the philippines was fine. but i have to admit, i also missed life in manila in such short period of time.

one thing i like about being here in hong kong you could stay late outside and not to worry about how to go home.. or even worry about being safe. i mean, at around past 12 mn, there are still a lot of people out in the streets.. the streets are still busy as hell.. well the traffic here is also quite heavy during rush hours. but it's very far from the heaviness of traffic in manila.. i mean people here are very disciplined, no matter how long the lines are in the bus stops, people still fall in lines.. even in MTR (subway train), passengers let the people come out of the train first, before they get into the train. and they do fall in lines too. as compared here, well people won't let you go out of the train and they do block our way out. hmm, discipine.. when using the escalator, be sure to keep right when not in a hurry. but don't dare to block the left side. coz this side is for those who are in a hurry. they could easily pass.. not to mention the cleanliness of the surroundings.. wow! you won't see a single vehicle with black smokes coming out of them. hehe! the sidewalks, even those with vendors, are all very tidy. :D

convenience. getting to another place is way to easy and fast. MTR or their subway train access almost the entire city. busses are also available even when it's late. MTR is also available till around 1 am. they have this Octopus Card, it's one system people here use to pay for bus fees, and even purchase products from stores that accommodate it.. very convenient indeed. just load any amount to the card. and everytime you wish to pay for anything that you purchased, just scan the card and it will be deducted from your card's load.. it will also allow you to pay only the exact amount espesially when riding a bus coz their bus fairs always have :D

about using mobile phones. people here use voice calls more compared to using text messages. i found out that text messages here are more expensive. making calls are cheaper.. 1 text message = 1 HKD. hehe. i think it's also safer for people to make voice calls when walking rather than texting while walking.. :D

but i must admit, for my lifestyle, foods are quite expensive here in hong kong..
it's my second time to be here in honk kong, but i consider it to be my first.. it's just that i appreciate my hong kong experience even more right now as compared to last time.. well that was 9 years ago? hehe.. what the hell do i know back then? i guess that's one good thing about growing old huh?
