PIXUS goes to Dragonfly...Again

It's girls' night out again and it's also a "Goodbye to Holidays" celebration (sob sob). 4 weeks just flew by and we'll have to start the battle again.

We're lucky to get seats right in front of the stage this time (coz we booked 2 weeks in advance).

Cute guy Benjamin (Benedict Goh lookalike) singing. Gals... he's really cute okay!

This lady is called Skye. She's super skinny but has a powerful voice.

After the 2nd performance, I went to the ladies with Ms Chin. As the queue was really long, I suggested going upstairs. When I reach the level... guess who I saw??? Deehellsix!!!!! OMG!!!! My lucky day! Since I have no voice, Ms Chin helped me asked if I could take a pic with him. And he said, "YES".

Wahahahahahaha......

The performance continues....

Mrs Ong says Deehellsix is not handsome what... Yah he's not but he's got style. especially when he's playing the guitar... it's hard to explain the feeling of watching the fingers move on the guitar strings... I guess I'm just a super fan.

By the way... Dee can play with his mouth too...

Miss Chin likes Uncle William (She told me not to call him uncle because at 46, he's more happening than some 40 year olds. I agree so I shall follow what Ms Chin suggests....Charming William)

Super Fans...

It's 13th of June and I'm on the plane to Hong Kong! Yipee....

Hahaha... I wish man! Well, our airport transfer sent some Singaporeans to the Hollywood Hotel at HK Disneyland and we took pictures of it. Hehe...

Anyway, we stayed at the Metropark Mongkok (we forgot to take pictures though). It's not a fantastic place but the location is great!

Once we reached, we rested for a while and headed for shopping at the Mongkok area. We had dinner at this chain eatery called Da Jia Le. Max bought a lot of toys!

DAY 2
Max and his parents are going to Disneyland today and we're going to a factory outlet mall at Tung Chung. The 2 of us didn't want to go to Disneyland HK coz we have already been to the one in California in 2005.

We're at the MTR station.

After dinner, we went to shop around Habour City. Well, we didn't buy anything because the shops there are selling mostly luxury goods. So we headed for the Tsim Sha Tsui Waterfront to watch the show, "A Symphony of Lights".

DAY 3
Today all 5 of us went out together. Our focus is on Causeway Bay's shopping district. You can never imagine how much we spent at G2000, Sogo and Esprit! The more amazing thing is how we managed to carry all the things (which is super heavy), take the MTR during peak hour and get back to the hotel in one piece. Well, it was an experience though.

After resting our legs, we set off to Tsim Sha Tsui area to shop and eat. Initially we have no plans on where to eat... so we walked and walked and walked and finally passed by this cafe.
