A freaking busy week!

Work is certainly piling up and is never ending, and the people at work certainly are bunch of... well, I wont finish this sentence. A visit from family and relatives certainly made the whole week busier (but definitely not worse). Six of them in total, and six of them are ladies, namely my mother, my sister, three of my aunts, and my cousin. And, seven of us are squeezed into this small apartment. Luckily the whole thing was not as bad as I imagined. They did get a good rest while they were here, so did I. I have to traveled back and forth to Shen Zhen for training while they were here from Monday till Wednesday. That didn't mean the work just stopped there. Once I got home still need to finish as much as I can. Believe me, people at work are not understanding. Being selfish is the only way to survive!


So, seven days they have stayed in Hong Kong. Where did they go? Plenty places I would say, mostly in Hong Kong. Shopping in most shopping malls is certainly must-do in Hong Kong (even for window shopping), such as Harbour City, Citygate Outlets, Festival Walk, Sogo, Time Square, IFC Mall etc. While I were in Shen Zhen, in addition to shop around in Ladies Market and Temple Street, they have been to Ocean Park and Disneyland (two of the many places in Hong Kong that I haven't been before).

On Thursday (I took a day off, thank God!) and Friday (another Thank-God public holiday of Hong Kong), I brought them to Macau, Lamma Island, and The Peak. Well, eventually they did buy a lot of stuff (and most of them are cookies such as Wife Cake). Anyway, it was a fruitful yet exhausting week, especially for myself. Tomorrow I have to travel to Shen Zhen again, and from Tuesday onwards, the hell will begin again, maybe even worse! Well, I did spend a lot in this week, but I do not regret spending... almost 10k!
