Happy New Year!

I know, I know it is 2 weeks late. But nonetheless, Happy New Year peoples.

I got back from the UK like 2 weeks ago and have been dead since I got back. The first day I got back to London some friends came around and were chilling at my house till 5am. That was more or less the pattern of my trip. I might have gone to bed before midnight like twice in nearly 3 weeks (I normally go to sleep at 9-10pm in Japan…). My sleeping pattern went like this. I would get to sleep at 3-5am get 2-4 hours sleep and wake up anytime between 6-9am in the morning. I would then try to steal like 2-3 of hours sleep in the evening or mid afternoon if the opportunity presented itself. But since I was having such a good time I was able to shrug it off and somehow survive.

Thanks to that when I got back to Japan I didn’t actually have any Jetlag (can’t have jetlag if you don’t actually sleep right..).

Unfortunately I didn’t take many pictures. In fact most of the snaps that got taken were on other peoples cameras, so it going be a task to collect them all…

I didn’t really experience any so called reverse culture shock (first time back in nearly 3 years) I guess it is because nothing has really changed. I was however shocked with how cold it was. Your mind remembers the UK is cold, but your body forgets how cold it actually was. I caught a cold the first time I left the house :(

Anyway happy New Year once again guys. I will defo be updating at least once a week. Got a lot of plans for 2010. Hope everyone has a good year and gets everything they want.

I’ll leave you with a couple of photos that I did take.

Quick disclaimer. I have nothing against white people, and it is not meant to be racist or anything. Also quality isnt that great, prolly need to tweak the settings.

Hong Kong Day 1

A few things:

If you havent seen my previous video blog post about arriving in Hong Kong you might wanna check that out first before watching this.

I swear and say the word “Like” a lot.

If you only have time to watch one of the three videos, i would recommend the last one called “After Restaurant”. Photos of food will be up when I wake up.
