Hong Kong 2010

2010-03-23T13:58:00.001Z

Sorry for the late updates recently guys, been busy IRL and had not much time updating the blog. This month I was fortunately in Hong Kong to see May'n and the Hong Kong Dollfie meet up, here are pictures of what I've been doing these past few days (just arrived home yesterday, had a day rest!).

Arrived at the airport around 7pm, worked out where I need to go and got onto the airport express line.

Here is a picture of the underground lines in Hong Kong, its alot simplier than JR line in Japan :).

After I arrived at where I am staying (Austin Station) I decided to clean myself up and sleep, ready for the big day tomorrow.

Here is the view from where I stayed, it was lovely and the air is nice and polluted. ^^

Decided to go for a nice walk around where I am staying and went straight down to Mongkok!

Now that I'm in Mongkok I decided to grab the first loot of the trip, my new headphones! My skullcandy HESH broke during my camping out in Comiket C76(I slept on them, no supprise I broke them!). So I settled with an Audio technia ATH-SQ5, because of the positive reviews online, and it happens to be in the illustrations book "Headphone girls", images can be found on Dannychoo's website. I brought these headphones along with the Shure microphone at a very good price at KingSound Headphone store (I'm afraid its a Chinese site but do check it out! and the prices offline is cheaper than online price!), they sell ALOT of different types of headphones and studio gear at a good price, I do recommend everyone going there if you are looking for a nice pair of headphones or studio gear! (and since they gave me a slight discount, I aint complaining :D).

Being abit of a Airsoft nut, I seen from few years back a few very good airsoft shops in Hong Kong, so I decided to have a look. (shame its closed, Hong Kong have a very odd opening times, I heard it's because most small hobby shops in Hong Kong are owned by people with other jobs and these stores are their secondary jobs or hobby, hence why the odd opening times, but like most stores in Hong Kong, they shut quite late at night).

Then I found an awesome shop! Classic Army specialist store (based in Hong Kong)!! They are a brand of airsoft guns equitment and I would seriously recommend them for people due to their quality and performance. Inside the stop they have ALOT of different attachment for their brand of guns and even if you don't do airsofting, it is worth going to have a look at the range of guns.

After a quick walk through Mongkok its 2:30pm, so I decided to head back home to get a quick shower and freshen up before May'n, I got to the exhibition center at 3:15pm and saw a que to get May'ns merhancise so I quickly rushed in que to grab what I can! There was around 30 people ahead of me, but I did grab 2 May'n tour t-shirt and 2 posters :D.

Here is the poster on display!

Here is the main stage for May'n, It's VERY big and spacious for May'n and her back up dancers to dance on, I did not take any photo during the concert because:

1. It was mentioned before concert cameras are not allowed
2. May'n on Facebook fansite said she was upset about pictures of her being used without her concent, so naturally as a HUGE May'n fan, I will not do so but was extremely annoyed at whoever that did (and there was loads of people taking photos rather than enjoying music May'n have put her heart and soul singing !!! >.< >.< (enough rant) The concert was FANTASTIC, May'n being my favourite artist and I did tear up during some of her songs, I have been to Abingdon Boy School (TM Revolution) and listening to TM within 1 meter and same with Utada Hikaru but May'n was just soo much better! Seeing May'n singing songs live that have helped me gone through a lot of hard times is the most emotional moments of my life and I enjoyed every seconds of it, I wish it wont end but a concert must have a start and a stop, at the end the venue holder randomly chosen 70 people to meet and greet May'n, I wish I was 1 of them but I wasn't, however the Union Jack I was holding (with a few signatures from some of my friends who also likes May'n) did make it to May'n because I gave it to someone who was chosen to the meet up, thanks Sky! if you are reading this, thanks again!!! My favourite songs (no order and don't want to list them all!):

Diamond Crevasse
Lion Iteza - Gogo 9ji - Don't be late
What 'bout my star?
Welcome To My FanClub's Night!
XYZ
Pink Monsoon
Universial Bunny

After the concert I was treated to a nice hotpot! :D It was really tasty and the prawns are MASSIVE! while I was eating I was watching TV on Animax (oh I was in the interview during the May'n concert for Animax because I was holding a big Union Jack xD so if u see me on Animax do tell me :D).

The next day started with me going to my "home area", This is where I lived before I moved to the UK so its quite a memorable place for me, I wont bombard viewers here with pictures but I'll just put up a few:

Mei Foo Station! :D

Lai Chi Kok Park.

It is time for the meet up with the Dollfie ladies and gents! :D and not to mention Danny Choo :) It took me few mins to find the shop but I was there 30mins before the event starting time, In this event I have meet lots of new friends, and a whole new Dollfie community which I was very proud off :D These guys (and girls) are very friendly and loves their daugthers very much which I respect alot, all their daughers were so lovely and cuuute!

The front of the shop Dollfie World, a fantastic shop full of items for your every dollfie needs, check out their website too :D

Outside the shop, we decided to take the daugthers for a walk :).

Everyone followed Mirai's lead!

The "Danny Effect" on everyone in Mongkok!

Danny, and a quick group pictures with all the daugthers.

Group photo, some people were shy and was not in the photo ^^ (stares at Denny :P).

So that sums up the Dollfie meet up, it was a fantastic day and I made friends with alot of the people in the community, they are all brilliant people and I misses them as I am writting this :(.

Next day, eating Yoshinoya for lunch which was noms.

While I was in Mongkok some random road show was going on, and it happens to be one of the busiest road in Hong Kong, Nathan Road >.>

God of War promotion in Mongkok.

Last meal in Hong Kong, it was LOVELY but I was upset while eating it because I had to go :(.

Hong Kong have a lovely modern airport unlike Heathrow or Gatwick in the UK.

Some art statue that looks like molten solder.

So this sums up my trip to Hong Kong during last weekend, it was short but I had some amazing times during this trip, seeing May'n was just breathless for me, and meeting up with Danny and my new comrades were also an excellent event but I do must everyone of them :(.

Here are pictures of my loot from the whole trip:

I was lucky to win the Dannychoo key thingy :).
