I am currently on the ferry home from Macau typing this on my phone. This is awesome...but more on that later.
Saturday afternoon Paul and I walked from his school over to Mong Kok for some "designer" phone covers. My phone is now adorned by Kate Spade :) feeling lazy we kind of just hung out at home not really feeling like venturing out. Eventually we got motivated and MTRed it over to Po Lam, about 30 mins, to our friends' Courtney and Patrick's place. Beth was over as well ( they all teach together) and we all just chatted and caught up over wine. 'Twas refreshing not to spend a Saturday night out in LKF!
Sunday afternoon and P and I met Nina and Kenny at The Brunch Club in Soho for, well, brunch. Duh. It's a cute little spot, filled with people, magazines and an overall airy light feeling. As per the food, meh. I got the two eggs on toast with salmon and goat's cheese. And it was just that. No seasoning, no garnish, no nothing. Just bread, poached egg, cheese and salmon sitting next to each other on a plate. At least it was healthy. The rest of the table concurred about the blahness of the food. Anyone know a decent brunch place here!? We're trying to pick a weekend to do the Jumbo free flow champagne brunch. Champagne, seafood, on a gianormous boat? Sounds good to me.
Afterward we head up the 3 miles of escalators to Nina's co-worker and friend, Helen's, new apartment. It's gorgeous! It's way way up in the mid-levels so they have an amazing view of the harbor. It's open, refurbished, and just nice. I can't wait til I grow up and have a nice apartment! Just get a job first...Helen is so sweet. We met a few weekends ago in SoHo where she was dressed as princess Leia. I'm not sure why, but it seems every weekend here you'll see at least one group of people dressed up. It varies in themes. Sometimes togas or cowboys, or sometimes just weird fuzzy costumes, but there's no shortage. I have yet to partake. But, yeah, good friends, good times, good apartments. I think sometime in the near future Paul and I want to host a BBQ party over at our place. I think there's a little guilt with living in a sick apartment in a sick location (because you never leave!), so they're willing to come see what the other side is all about.
