I thought the sun rose in your eyes

So I've been back from my Hongkong trip a week ago but my laziness has got the better of me (again), and because I've got the memory span as short as my cat's tail (you'll get it in a bit, just know it's really, really short) I can't recall all the things I've intended to blog when I first got home. Well what I absolutely have to say is that, Hongkong is such a weird place.

First, it was hands down one of my most fun and comfortable trips for a while, despite how small the hotel rooms were. And yeah I mean hotel rooms, as in plural, because I got to stay at 2 hotels in 4 days, and it was more fun than inconvenient. In the hotels there were these small guide cards for tourists

There were so many of them

And I thought it was so clever and convenient. It's easier to carry around than a brochure and because it's once card for each location it probably is more detailed or more focused. I don't know but I was really impressed with this.

I was also impressed by how many types of money are used in Hongkong. And by types of money I don't mean like many currencies. They're all Hongkong Dollars, but there are at least 2 designs for each money bill.

4 different $20 HKD bills, all usable

And finally, the weirdest thing about Hongkong is how difficult it it to find internet connection, and how complicated it is to use it once you've found one. In hotels you have to pay $100 HKD for each day of internet connection and they don't have wi-fi, just cables, so I couldn't use it on my phone anyways. Out of 5 coffee shops and diners there could be like 2 that have wi-fi but the proxies are way too complicated and annoying for 20 minutes using the internet (Yeah, each time you set the proxy you can use the internet for 20 minutes. WTF?!)

One of the best part of the trip surely was visiting Disneyland. I totally loved the design and how detailed they were. I spent most of the time wandering around looking at stores and signs, even toilet signs and trash bins. And then after sunset they turned the lights on and it was totally magical. Never a thing out of place, different styles for each area. My distorted OCD was satisfied.

When I was in Hongkong the weather was very chilly and all the shops were selling mostly winter clothes. All the clothes I could buy was t-shirts (only one) and jumpers (a few), the ones that are less heavy and can actually be used in Vietnam sometimes when it's cool.

However, I did get to buy 3 pairs of boots, which could totally make up for anything. 

Absolutely my favorite purchase on the trip. Now I wear it with almost everything: shorts, dress, jeans, leggings, etc. 

I also bought a backpack, which I wanted to buy forever but never found one that I like

And while choosing souvenirs I got myself a new key chain

My old key chain broke and I couldn't resist this cutie right at first sight

That ends my summary about my Hongkong trip, and leads to the main reason I blog today: I JUST GOT A CAT.

Say hello to Tum!!!

I got him two days ago. His mother was a stray cat and left him right after he was born. Some people at a church fed him along with more than ten other kittens. He is really skinny. And tiny. He can fit in my hand.

I can't wait until he get a little bit chubbier

This is my first time having any pet of my own, and his first time having an owner of his own I guess, so we're both adjusting.

All skin and bones with huge eyes!!!

He likes it when I rub his nose and scratch behind his ears. He's still shy, but he sleeps better on my hand or just around my arms.

Two days in and I love having a cat so far :)
