Fresh start in 2009 part I

On December 13th 2008, I left Montreal to Hong Kong, Macau, Guangzhou,Xiamen and Vancouver for three weeks. I came back on January 2nd 2009 with lots of wonderful memories of my trip... And a brand new style.

Let's just say I incoporated Asian clothing and a brand new haircut into my wardrobe. Hopefully, I will be able to mix and match successfully.

Many of the places hold a charm of their own, Hong Kong is a very modern city, the malls are like heavens. There was so much to buy but my luggage wouldn't permit me to bring them all home. Therefore, I have to make sacrifice... I am saving my money at the same time too! Macau is a very entertaining place, many colourful buildings and many casinos. Good thing I am not a gambler... XD Guangzhou is a pretty busy city and the shoppings are amazing. Xiamen is a nice place to shop but not a good place to eat. There is a lot factories and such... As we can see, the city is still developping and there was a lot of motorcycles driving around. Not a good place to walk around... It could get dangerous! Nonethless, it's a wonderful sight. Vancouver... A very relaxing city. I study English there for a month and a half and not much has changed since then. Maybe a little... However, my old school has changed location and I didn't have time to ride the subway. Oh yeah... Can't forget Seattle. I did a little trip there and I practically just shop there. It was on New Year's day. Who knew that I will spend my first day of 2009 shopping... Haha.

To end this, I should put some pictures up. Since it's pretty late right now, I will post them up tomorrow morning.

One more thing before hitting the sack, I am sensing many changes coming in 2009. Good or bad, let's just hope for the best and remember that some things are in our hands.

P.S: I am looking forward to a new trip this summer. Will keep it a surprise for the time being! ;-)
