As a side trip during my stay in Hong Kong, my aunt Carrie invited me to go to London with her, which I gladly accepted. It was amazing, couldn't have been better if i had planned it.
I spent most of the days exploring the city, sightseeing and going to museums. Saw a musical, shopped on Oxford street, walked throught the parks, went into the Tower of London etc. People there are nice, and soooo proper ( in their well mannered, cardigan wearing ways). I met up with Kasia, one of Mickey's friends who I met in India; Shubha, my friend from Toronto; and my friends from studying abroad 2 years ago. I stayed with Jen after my aunt left, and got to meet some of her crazy/lovely friends. I spent a day in Oxford with my friend Mohsin (who is now engaged), which was fabulous. On my last night, the whole crew came into London and it was just awesome to see everyone again and catch up.
So now I have a new plan to move to London in three years... I can't wait!

Goodbye India and hellooooo Hong Kong, the fragrant harbour..

I had the best last days in Mumbai, thanks to my most lovely friends. I got to do some last minute shopping and got to see everyone one last time. It was amazing to spend the last day cruising on Marine Drive, one of my first memories of Bombay, and eating at the Salt Water Grill with the people I love... it was just a great way to say goodbye.

Yay, now I'm in HK again! Not much tourist activities going on, just meeting up with friends and family. (All the cute babies!) I helped my sister move into her new place and went to my interview. Also spent time nursing a bladder infection, a cold and some sort of heat rash on my face, which won't go away - hence the lack of photos.
I hooked up with some of my friends from when I studied at HKU, and got to eat loads of yummy yummy food: Dim sum, sushi, peking duck, dumplings, steaks mmmmm!! Ada is happy to be back in a multi-cuisine carnivorous world! (But no Chung King Mansion for me , i'm all curried out!)
I found a fantastic yoga place in Sheung Wan, its really intense and i've been sore for 4 days now.
hmmm what else. O yes. Being Ching Ming festival, we are going to pay respects to my Grandpa this Sunday.
In more exciting news, I'm going to London for a week with my aunt next week!! I'm looking forward to going there for the first time and to have a reunion with the brit crew from my HKU days. yay!!
Last but not least, now that the interview flopped and I got waitlisted by Columbia - looks like i'm heading back to Toronto to start law school this fall, which i guess is not too shabby. Regardless, i'm looking forward to being back and catching up with all my buddies.

I'll try to get some photos up soon!
