3:20 AM
at the airport
less than 3 hours
until my next flight
*
decided to reserve
some blogging to be done
because i am not going to
sleep anyway
*
yet the weekend
seemed a bit busy
no i don’t mean busy
in the sense of working
in fact it’s the direct opposite
flying with zero workload
*
all pending work
has been cleared over the weekend
and all invoices up till now
have been drafted and
ready to be sent
*
so i actually had time
to do a bit of this and that
enjoyed a good night sleep
and usual evening walk and
grocery shopping
*
it seems busy
to clutter everything into a post
i probably should split them up
and write one at a time
not to mess things up
and i have the time anyway
*
packing has been smooth
since i did everything quite
last min as usual
*
but i got a whole afternoon to myself
whole family was gone
to settle my work, invoice and packing
and i even had time to
do some clothes altering
a piece of romper from H&M

*
never worn, not even once
was fine when i bought it last year
then i am not sure if it shrunk
it was getting shorter that
it was kinda awkward so
i chopped it off to become a long top
or short dress at least
*
anyway
i think this is one of the few times
that my stuff are so well organized
that i am actually impressed
*
like seriously
![Watch’s Missing X Bag is not Zipping:The Last Min Packing Watch’s Missing X Bag is not Zipping:The Last Min Packing](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFIBIUAuGqPlZPmJOqNOyJsfl1Zzf1r2gm78smrqlZkCmhTeE13jHQ0HXBND7bTsCTm0PBWuq9L8pwNckd-ziHXhdCLMSMc9BDKc1J9MVItq3dPpMoHMALv4VQhi-QlD-ETLXblkX4PJU/?imgmax=800)
*
anyway this is so packed that
i have to actually put the
non liquid items such as
floss, cotton, toothbrush
in another zip lock bag
*
i used to throw everything
into one big bag
and i have spoilt 3 of those
within a year
the zip just couldn’t stand it anymore
and i realize the personal care store
i got it from is no longer selling them
so this is from their opponent
*
i guess it’s good that
i finally reduce and organize everything
but wait a minute
i realize i have more and more bottles
the maximum quantity is ten isn’t it
*
that excludes hair shampoo
which i thrown in my check-in baggage
as well as a Nivea spray which
i have decided to ditch
*
for the next trip
i am not travelling with
any check-in allowance
i.e. have to reduce the bottles
*
please understand the plight
of an ageing woman who is
doing her best not to
age as fast
*
guess what
two days in a week
that was last week
i had to work at a café
then only i realized
i have not been using a laptop case
since forever
*
like i just grabbed my laptop
threw it into a tote bag
like any tote bag and
there i go
*
and give my negative records of
water spillage
it’s a very dangerous thing to do
*
so i spotted this on Zalora
last week
boo… no voucher is allowed
or i would have checked out already
![damn nice right damn nice right](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCjha4vW3eORC1WCfy65tvhPPVc67dDqKWHgKEU_lDPuT0y6YMFI-klK6qyQYRmMl9RGKzchUxGccwdbFV4V5r5u0qqpebjlmcM9F6C8cEJDUoyI1II2AGuKUw8Yg5UreOxC_tLDkCCn4/?imgmax=800)
*
but during my last minute packing
while clearing some old clothes
i cleared more than 30+ pieces
ready to be sent away
*
i found this
a perfect 15” case
which was actually a
random free gift from
the personal care store i mentioned
i think it was some gift-with-purchase
by Clear under Uniliver group
but we were not even buying their products
i was really impressed with the quality
when i first got it
yet was never put into use
![felt laptop bag, a gift from Watsons felt laptop bag, a gift from Watsons](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5_S0KoHc_u9MaM2C7qOn0bFNy0fVgBguGHDubyZQJwLlVqMH7kazosZhyphenhyphenqjGqtCo_ow5xzL1dWXah7zCxTIYZFJNGGjTE_lbgGGj3UKhLjsoChtUxNNATyyISccw6PLGETNBC_XVkJaY/?imgmax=800)
*
and from the same wardrobe
i found a matching bag
used to be my daily bag and
have travelled with it too
3 years ago i think
no a 15” laptop can’t fit in here
but still i have decided to travel with them

*
i got this real cheap
because this is simply a gift
that comes along with Japanese magazine
sometimes they call Mook
MagBook X With a Hook: MOOK
*
half of the time
people are buying for the
merchandise that comes along
and these merchandises are
actually sold separately as they are
by resellers out there
*
i have learnt my lesson
this time round
no more staying at the outer pocket
Frustrating X Fcking Frustrating: MISSING

*
and my mom was complaining that
how could you travel with a bag
with no zip and no nothing
it makes me stressed up
listening to negative ranting
before leaving
*
being a good kid
i actually put on a layer of jacket
for the zipless tote bag
like seriously… grocery shopping??
yeah i usually carry one of those
in my bag even when i travel
for grocery shopping
![gosh... what happened to my felt bag gosh... what happened to my felt bag](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhec68J8hoKzAQbRtyEz_1DRksNRoRmFKJV9RmdYy15tOIWQcWyeAukmuXPhVRlKCGYWiBtXd93pEGCUbzRyD8sitMmJ3rLG_imfHRHO_kPIbfht1AS76ROGGvkZXlNGN8pfMrsdlpMbtQ/?imgmax=800)
*
i know i gonna forget
at least one thing
*
thank goodness
i noticed it was my watch
3 minutes after we left home
so we actually made an u-turn
*
well
when you are so used to
wearing a watch
it actually will force me
into buying one at the airport
just saying : p
*
okay
i realize i will go forever and ever
and i was supposed to
blog about the more interesting stories
which took place over the weekend
*
till then
see you
will be blogging from China
24/7 this week
because i have got a traveler SIM
a HK data SIM in fact
![China Unicom data Sim for Mainland China and HK China Unicom data Sim for Mainland China and HK](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4ssCg_DZRTnkQBftUUJXHNBUClSG69z5pqsu0FEYZiGxDergde1xYAwWQSel18-O3UtghLFTN3e35DrllQXPQ82JyNBvw81uX-5VDe6BVvHxeNiM2w3BrNssYq61leHJAFCExBazN89E/?imgmax=800)
*
so i would have no issue at all
assessing my Gmail (most importantly)
and so on
*
since i am now an Android user
i suddenly have this question
if Google services are not available
in Mainland China
so how does an Android phone
serve you as a Google product?
yes no??
*
but i nevertheless
downloaded Outlook and QQ Mail
for mail forwarding and
account linking
well in case
*
4:12 AM
let’s put a stop to this post
there’s another round of typhoon
sweeping across Southern China
hope everything will be fine
please????
