Am dog tired. Even my aunt saw me just now and said i looked exhausted and asked me why i don't take leave tomorrow to rest. Well, i wish i could, but work is piling up. I don't even wanna think about the time i'm gonna spend working for the next three days before i depart for London. I'm afraid the travel log would gotta be put into the queue of my long list of outstanding posts.
Anyway, to sum it up, i did somewhat enjoy the trip, even though not 100%. I hope mom had enjoyed her time there. If not for anything else, i bet she had enjoyed the shopping very much, seeing that she spent all the money that she had exchanged (about SGD500). I even had to pay for some of her stuff for the last few days because she had used up all her HKD.
I haven't done a calculation on how much in total i've spent on this trip. My guess would be somewhere around SGD1500, including mom's air ticket and our accommodation. I didn't really buy a lot of stuff there, and that's really a pity, for HK is known for shopping shopping shopping. I guess i'm rather budget-conscious, and also the stuff isn't really cheap either -- if i wanna get good quality stuff, mostly are branded and expensive; if i were to get cheaper things, then it's "made in China", and i might as well go to China and buy (yes, i know even branded stuff are now made in China as well, but at least there is a certain QC to it). Moreover, it's winter season now, so the fashion, even though nice, isn't really practical for me to wear in SG. So i returned to SG with an unsatisfied feeling.
Oh well, that's the end of my short break. It's back to work tomorrow. Sigh...
