Clot h i n g Me and Second hand stuff I love things which are unique. When i was a mid-dle school boy, I hated people wearing tee shirts designed by large street brands. Everyone looks the same in Causewaybay and Tsim Sha Tsui. So I started to search for second hand clothing because most items are the only one in the store. Also, I enjoy looking up clothes that iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found amazing and it is like digging gold from shxt. It is so much fun. In 4 years time, I have never seen anyone wearing tee shirts that i own in Hong Kong.

Grand Promenade tu Central (Macau Ferry)

Riding on numbers I almost travel on buses everyday. Many times I take bus instead of MTR because i do not like to be squeezed inside the train. Therefore, I prefer buses. Here are some of the routes that I travelled with in year 2008.

A seat deserves $9.8 in the morning

I travel on 102 almost everyday

This bus can take me from home to Central in 15 mins. I was used to take this bus to school when I was in secondary school. Each morning I really had to squeeze myself into the bus because people were going to work in Central too. Sometimes the bus just cannot close the door properly.

A12

Siu Sai Wan tu Airp

I love A12 because it took me directly from secondary school back home. The journey was 35mins to 45 mins, me and my friends usually took a good rest on the bus before we start working at home.

Tin Wan Estate tu Shau Kei Wan Each year there are some special festivals me and my family will go to Aberdeen to visit my grand parents. Most of the time, we take 77.

N122 102 106 Shau Kei Wan tu Mei Foo

Shau Kei Wan tu Mei Foo

Siu Sai Wan tu Wong Tai Sin

These two numbers carry me on and off from Polyu everyday. There are two advantages of taking 102 or 106. First, I do not have to wait long for the bus. Second, most of the time there are seats. I can take a quality nap, finish the readings or have my breakfast because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got 40 mins on the bus. The only disadvantage is concerning the air-con, which is really freezing in the summer.

This is one of the greatest blessings from heaven because when I worked till midnight like 4am, it will take me home, but a bit expensive. N122 always reminds me the song Home sweet Home, Take me Home.

North Point Ferry Pier tu Siu Sai Wan

I go to play football in the weekend on this route.

tation Bus Terminus ( circular route )

last sem-break, I went to Science park in Shatin two times. It is like a garden and a heaven is so quiet and calm and beautiful.

Shau Kei Wan tu Wan Chai Ferry Pier

This route is the fastest way for me to go to causeway bay. Also, I can enjoy the harbour view along the Island Eastern Corridor, which is much better than being stuck inside the subway(mtr).

Lei King Wan is the best place i have ever lived so far. The apartment that we lived was very spacious which include a balcony as well. It had a harbour view, too. However, due to the high rent, we had to move.

I have lived Until 19 years old, I have lived in 5 different places in two districts which are Eastern and Southern district on Hong Kong Island. I love living in the Hong Kong side because it is small enough to save alot of time on travelling. I like Eastern and Southern district in equal because there are both pros and cons. For instance, the transportation system is more developed in Hong Kong East and some major shopping malls are also located there. In Hong Kong South there are beautiful beaches where life seems less tense.

Eastern Hong Kong I am currently (Feb09) living in Felicity Garden right above the Sai Wan Ho MTR station. It has provided me so much convenient to travel from place to place. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve become so lazy because of this.

My family moved into Hoi Fai Mansion when I was primary one. I remembered my own desk was put on a large windowsill where I had to climb in order to do revision. That was probably the most weird place to put a desk.

Since I was still a baby when my family and I lived in this church. I got only mere memories. But my mom told me that ‘we lived inside 4 walls with very few windows, which made the room quite dark all the time. ‘ ‘I see.’ I responed.

My parents bought an apartment in Jing Hui Garden. We had been living here for 6-7 years. The most excitting things about living here was the playground where my brother and I used to play table tennis and soccer together, but very often we kicked the ball off the building. That was so much fun.

Southern Hong Kong We lived in Ap Lei Chau Main Street before we moved to Aberdeen. My dad worked in a church next to our flat, my mum was a housewife taking care for my baby brother. There are market, restaurants and parks within this street. Therefore, we did not go to other places much.

After the Advanced level examination, I had my longest vacation in my secondary school life. This was when I started to look for real relaxation. During that 4 months, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found out some major components of a true rest for example, fine drinks, something light to eat, a cozy place and sketchbooks. Here are some of the most enjoyable and relaxing time from June 08 to January 09.

ak It is not a usual practice for Hong Kong people to have picnic by the side of a lake because we rarely take our lunch break in a park, we have our meals indoor. On 7 February 09, I had my lunch exactly next to the lake inside the Science Park. I prepared some sandwiched at home and bought a potato salad in Pacific Coffee. The sunshine is so awesome on that day and the lake was so calm. Sometimes, teenagers feel like semester break means hanging out with friends to karaoke, cinema and go shopping, but i think these major consuming practices are just exhausting ourselves in some other ways. I strongly recommand everyone to find a true way to spend their leisure time.

sketchbook, a good place, nice and simple food and a fine drink are all indispensable for leisu

During the summer vacation in August, me and my big family went for a 4days cruise trip on Star Virgo. Every day, I found myself a comfortable environment, ordered something to eat and started to read some books and draw something. On one afternoon, I was on deck 13 enjoying my high tea, which included a smoked salmon salad and a cup of coffee latte. I could feel the gentle sea breeze and hear the sound of waves. In that 4days, i also spent some hours next to the swimming pool, some hours at a coffee bar, some hours in the elegant library and some hours in my own room.

On 1st October 2008, the sky was beautifully blue, which made me just want to spend me day in a beach. So i did. I went to Repulse bay. Having a cool apple juice and a beef pie was so sweet. Sometimes I fell asleep, sometimes I did some reading and sometimes i did some sketching. It was very free, nobody was telling me what to do and i was not doing anything for anybody, nor for homework sake, not for job sake. It was leisure, only leisure.
