Hong Kong December 2010
I'm preparing for my German speaking test, which is less than 8weeks away. I'm really worried and stressed, so I thought I would look at old photos and reminisce...to calm me and to avoid work XD
Cookie and Mint Ice cream and 22nd December.
22nd December was a very important day, since people had to go back home to have dinner with their family. I think it's a really sweet tradition, and it was the first time I had celebrated it, since most of my family live in Hong Kong.

I forgot to show you some of the pictures of a studio Ghibli exhibition on at a shopping mall, which was really cute. But, like Hello Kitty land it was nearly impossible to get a photo of yourself with the cute figures!
It was nice finding new things and exploring :)
Lucky Cats
I miss buying cheap things and haggling,... I still haven't properly unpacked aswell D:
Whilst I was there,Hong Kong was really hot, but everyone still had puffer jackets and fleeces on. I felt very awkward and exposed XD
Do you have family traditions?Sunday dinners or Friday night dinner?
I wish I didn't live so far away from my relatives.

ReplyDeleteAww, the Studio Ghibli exhibit is adorable! My family and I have random traditions...For Thanksgiving, we always have to cook two Chinese dinners for some reason. I think it's because my grandfather likes it, but he usually just munches on the turkey! XD

ReplyDeleteSuch fun pics.
ReplyDeleteMy family sometimes have Sunday dinners with my brother here. But usually, just me and the boyfriend..cooking. He usually, cooks and I watch. We sometimes take walks on the weekend.
I didn't know about the 22nd Dec tradition?! Though I guess being in the UK is a bit different isn't it? Chinese traditions just aren't celebrated in the same way- even with CNY! I can't wait to go back to HK in July. It's going to be SUPER HOT!! Better get used to wearing layers even in the heat so I don't stand out too much haha!
ReplyDeleteAwww you look so cute! I went to Beijing and Shanghai but I never made it to Hong Kong :( I want to go! I am so impressed you know how to speak German! So cool!
ReplyDeleteWe only have church on Sundays :(
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your test dear! And I love love Hong Kong! Planning to live there in the next 2 years =D
ReplyDeleteI love to eat ice cream...
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your exams :) thanks for stopping by my blog :)

ReplyDeleteOh I don't believe I know the event of 22nd December?!
ReplyDeletehehe I was the same when I went to Hong Kong. Everyone else was in their wooley jumpers/cardigans and I was in a vest, not even a t-shirt, a vest because it was so damn hot!
