Hey folks..
boxing day was largely spent playing with my sibling's Christmas presents *ahem* what can I say, Nerf guns are fun, but Artillery/rocket launcher sized Nerf guns were just too cool to ignore.. That's got to be fun with a group of mates =P I'm just a big kid really!
At the moment I'm at home in Rowhedge waiting for Mr. Fedex to arrive with my airline tickets from Hong Kong so I can ironically fly to Hong Kong.
Denning is filling up with stuff to do in Hong Kong, number one on the list is get a freakin' hair cut! few people can really cut my hair because its so odd (what with being red and thick) but there are a few people out there who sort of "get" hair and know how its going to fall.. One of those people is Giancarlo this guy in Jesi in Italy - nice bloke and he always does a superb job. The other is miraculously my mother's best friend Lorraine who has just returned to the hairdressing profession, its so odd that she left given that she was so talented. But anyhow she cut my hair last and to her absolute credit it came out beautifully and sat well for the next 3 weeks of growth! My hair grows at an astounding rate. However no hairdresser could cut with 5 weeks of growth in mind.. Therefore I have a haystack on my head.. Fantastic =] So its off the same salon I've gone to in Hong Kong since I was a kid haha! La Coupe in princes building, excellently placed next to the bookazine so I can buy myself something to read... Nostalgia value at maximum =]
The next thing is to meet up with Sean a great friend of mine from Sixth form at Shatin College. He's been doing the whole theoretical physics thing at University of Chicago - he's scarily talented at the whole thing.. Human calculator =]
Then I must meet Helen, whose company like Sean's I have missed greatly despite the fact that we are both in the same country for University (haha, man I'm lazy!). We're going to pick up a Gingerbread Latté and catch up..
Finally there's a New Years Eve party which another Shatin Colelge'r, Kate Townsend has organized which Helen is dragging me to =] I'd go wilfully anyway (infact I'm really lookng forward to it) but she's dragging me just the same hehe =]
Well take care folks..
I'm going to go offline so the house line is open to calls haha
