I explored Hong Kong with my bestie. We both wanted to travel somewhere, just the two of us, especially since we soon parted ways (for a while). Hong Kong came up, and Hong Kong it was. We ate countless pineapple buns, took shots in Lan Kwai Fong, and visited both Ocean Park and Disneyland. Jik, I am looking forward to our travel next year. How about the Great Barrier Reef? We shall do the “you jump, I jump” reenactment.
I went to a cat cafe and tried to befriend the cats that, in return, ignored me completely.
This month I:
- Had so much fun playing #radicalselflovejuly on Instagram.
- Slept on the floor while being a thousand miles from home.
- Participated in a minimalism game and got rid of a lot of personal stuff. I downsized so much until I mistakenly gave my only formal pants to Goodwill, but all is good. And lighter.
- Had my fifteen minutes of fame.
- Went to Hong Kong with my BFF and couldn’t stop talking about it.
