Just a Minute (December 2010)

On the last day of every month, I take Just a Minute to reflect on what I’m currently up to.

Missing… all of my close friends from last semester! Much as I love China and Hong Kong, they both just aren’t the same without them. Places are always a little lonelier when friends leave.

Eating… lots and lots of my favorite Hong Kong foods! It’s been way too long since I’ve been in this city. I think I’ve already eaten my weight in wonton noodles during my time here.

Exploring… Hong Kong. I’m fortuate enough to have had a few friends in town, so I am enjoying meeting up with them and having fun adventures in the city.

Shopping… my heart out. Hong Kong might be more expensive than mainland China, but when the quality is better and the sizes actually fit me, how can I complain about forking over a little extra for awesome clothes?

Playing… with my new Kindle! As much as I love actual books, e-readers are great for traveling.

Scouring… Hong Kong for the best bubble tea stands. Since studying abroad in China, I’ve become addicted to bubble tea and drink the stuff almost once a day. I do have a rule, though; no more than one bubble tea per day.

Celebrating… the arrival of 2011!
