Breakfast was at New York Deli and Sandwiches.. the person at the counter did not seem to be awake yet... HaHa
After breakfast, we went to check in and my pocket knife got confiscated!

Day 1 @ CUHK
Upon reaching Chek Lap Kok (Hong Kong International Airport), the feeling is so familiar... It felt just like Changi, except that people speak in Cantonese.. and maybe some better looking people..HaHa...
After checking out and collecting our luggage, we had our lunch at Cafe de Coral (大家乐)... The food was OK.. but I miss chili sauce that comes with chicken rice :(
Then I bought my Octopus Card (Ez-link of HK) and also SIM card...
We took the Airport Bus to Shatin KCR (Kowloon-Canton Railway) and then took a taxi to the International House (our hostel) in CUHK.. It was raining heavily after we got off the bus.. The taxi uncle was quite funny.. He was really frustrated that he could not find the hostel.. more frustrated than us! HaHa..
The taxi fare itself was HK$60 (HK$30 each) and bus fare was HK$20/each. Cheaper as compared to the HK$200 we have to pay if we meet the student helpers at the airport.. :)

After settling down in our rooms, I bumped into a CUHK student helper and followed them to the Office of Academic Links (OAL) to take our student package and Student ID card.. Then, we had a campus tour...
If you think NTU has a lot of slopes, it's nothing compared to CUHK.. If you think NUS has a lot of stairs.. it's nothing compared to CUHK! The buses do not go straight to I-House, so we have to walk ... and walk... in a super warm and humid weather.. It felt like walking through warm clouds of water... The weather is rather erratic.. one moment it's so sunny, you think you might get skin cancer soon.. The next moment, it's raining so heavily, you think typhoon is coming soon... HaHa..

For dinner, we wanted to go to Fo Tan to eat at the roadside stalls.. But it was raining so heavily that we could not walk from the KCR Station... So, we went to Sha Tin instead.. and ate at Yakguni Ramen in the New Town Plaza.. The food was OK..
Some of them are a little disappointed to be eating Japanese food for their first meal in HK.. HaHa...

Then, we went to take Neoprints! HaHa... There were 8 of us- 3 from NUS, 3 from NTU, one from Taiwan and the CUHK student helper...

Ended the day by setting up the network connection on my laptop... zzzzzz

Day 2 @ CUHK

I planned to wake up at 8.30am but got woken up when the sun shone on my face... at 6.30am!! The day was already as bright as if it is 8.30 or 9am in Singapore.. o_O
Couldn't continue sleeping anymore.. So, got up and chit chatted with my roommate- a girl from NTU... Went to watch TV but there's only Stock Market review on..
Going out soon.. for grocery shopping...
