just my luck..

Today, I was looking forward to spending it scouring the streets of Mongkok and hopefully sniffing out good buys. I have only up to tomorrow left and will be heading back home on Wed. But unfortunately, grey skies greeted me when I woke up! Damn...

Headed to the Immigration Dept to get my ID Card and realised upon reaching the MTR station, I left my mobile at home...DAMN...felt lazy to walk back...time, 11.10am, I should be able to head to the Immigration Dept, get my card and if time permits, I will go back home to get my mobile. So that's what I did! Walked back home to get my mobile again. By then, the skies were abit clearer and I thought, yay, maybe I can get some shopping down.

Met up with galfren for lunch at this Vietnamese restaurant and then went for a little shopping at Harbour City. YESH.... TORY BURCH is available in Hong Kong!! And you can get it at Lane Crawford!! But it costs HKD2500!!! But this is rather pretty..the latest offering from Tory Burch, and its real comfy as well. Mental note.. I am a 7 1/2. So if Neiman Marcus is offering this on sale, please please let me know!

In the end, I bought this Beverly Feldman bling bling shoes. So pretty and bling!! Galfren kinda convinced me to get it cos Sista and her bought it. Since we are shoe buds, I decided what the heck, okay :)

After shopping at Harbour City, galfren recommended that I check out Granville Rise (how to get there: walk along Granville Street, at Granville Circuit, turn right and just walk straight, Granville Rise building is to your left). Granville Rise apparently house little shops selling different types of apparel, shoes and jewellery (kinda like Island Beverly). I was there at about 2plus and most of the shops are not opened (those lazy buggers...quote from Luxe Travel Guide). I didnt shop much, just bought a pretty necklace!

At that point in time, I was feeling faint and suffering from a major headache. Decided to just stop shopping and head for tea with Shann at her place.

Got home at about 6, ordered take-in from Tsui Wa with B and my headache is slowly subsiding... Now am just sitting on the couch and watching Celebrity Apprentice. I just hope tomorrow will be better!
