After all the dressing up and make up, we made our way to the bus stop outside i-house to take the chartered bus to the hotel at Mongkok... Me, HY, SH, Irene, with Jimmy at the back cause he's too tall..
We could not get up on the first bus.. so, we had to wait for the next one to come.. the other people who were at the bus stop too..
The girls~ 
We reached the hotel ballroom....
Had to wait in line to register our names... So, we took a big group photo! (my eyes are closed..sigh... )
The food! it was a buffet dinner...
and more food...
and even more food.. i love sashimi... salmon sashimi... and sushi! :)
Yingchao (Intro to Financial Markets classmate from Sg) and me ... we were on the same dinner table...
Kee Hong (my favourite xiao di) and me :)
Me and Lion! (Taiwanese friend who's very cute! He was trying to act cool by not shaving off his moustache and wearing sunglasses)
HY, Stephanie (my Taiwanese flatmate who's very very cute and super nice!) and me..
Me and Raymond (Intro to Financial Markets classmate who's American but studying in McGill, Canada)... He likes to speak in Mandarin to me and HY.. o_O
The Malaysians!! Me, Msian clan head- Sze Huey and Huiyie-the acting clan head... :)
Me and cute cute Jiaxin (Fundamentals of Chinese Medicine classmate from NUS!)
Me and Jimmy (self-claimed Mr Big Head from Sg... )
Me with Dexter (a teenager we talked to on our cultural trips, from Canada with Hong Kong parents...)
me, Jackson (from the Singaporean gang), HY, Yanru (Sg who can sing very well) and KH...
Meng (the only American that matters.. :P) and I
HY, me, cute Soma! (from the Office of Academic Links, in charge of some of our welfare and this farewell dinner!) and Irene...
on the stage...- CUHK International Summer School 2007 Farewell Dinner *sobz*
Me and Ryan (Australian Chinese we clubbed with at Lan Kwai Fong ;P)...
Jennifer (Pharmacology student in US + Intro to Financial Markets classmate)...
The girls at the lobby... before leaving the place...
Hui May (cute girl from Sg+ my flatmate..), HY, Dickson (another officer from Office of Academic Links) and I at the lobby of the hotel....
A few of us took a cab back first cause we had to study for examinations... The rest went to Lan Kwai Fong for drinks... But they didn't stay til too late cause everyone was kinda tired.. So, they bought supper (McD) back... HY and I who were still studying at the wee hour went down to grab their supper! LOL
That night, HY and I slept at 4AM and woke up at 6AM to continue studying! Surviving the whole night on Portuegese egg tarts given by Yc + coffee provided by Irene :)
The examinations the next day was quite a killer.. 1st paper was in the morning- Fundamentals of Chinese Medicine... We were given 2 hours but I left after about an hour.. Cause I had nothing more to write.. After the exam, i felt very nauseated.. probably due to lack of sleep the night before! But I still had to study for the next exam in the afternoon.. The afternoon paper was worse! There was another batch of students who took this exam earlier (on Friday).. Thinking the paper would be the same, my dear classmate gave me a lot of tips, esp on the essay questions... BUT the prof changed the exam questions! so- DEAD! HaHa...

My project groupmates! - (clockwise from top left): Derek, Xuejin (both from NTU), Fred(from CUHK) and me! We had to invest HKD100 000 into the HK stock market as our project (virtually.. not for real but the price of the stocks follow the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong's).. our group lost about HKD100+ ... It was a fun project.. except maybe the written report part..HaHa... :)
Huiyie, Merlin (from Macau but studying in CUHK) and me! Merlin was our cute cute classmate in both the Intro to Financial Market module and Fundamentals in Chinese Medicine module.. He skipped many of the Chinese Meds class and we took the lecture notes for him.. In return, he promised to treat us to tea but he's such a busy man! We didn't get to claim the cup of tea but we'll wait til he comes to visit us ;) Merlin was my permanent source of cantonese practice... He spoke only cantonese to HY and I... I found it rather difficult initially BUT it was a super good experience.. :)He got a shock when we spoke to him in Cantonese the first time! and he thinks Malaysia is such a unique place cause we can speak so many languages... HaHa :D
Me and Sze Huey~ the 2 in white top
Hui Yie and Jiaxin~the two in yellow top
Jeremy and Edward~ the 2 guys... 
Mini egg tarts... looks big in pic but is actually mini sized ones... but still nice :)
with abalone slices...
xiao long baos with carrot slices as the base... but not tasty.. -__-
everything else was nice though... there was this super nice spring rolls that i dont have a pic on.. probably snapped up too fast by the hungry people before the camerawoman could take a pic...
small, medium, large all at HKD 7.50 each! nice :)
The huge huge crowd all walking to the stadium together... many people were wearing Liverpool jerseys..
the back of Jeremy, HY and me.. following the crowd...
passed Caroline Hill Road.. don't know where's that...
Finally, we reached the HK Stadium!! and we presented out tic at the Student Ticket Holder entrance... 
HKD100 = SGD 20 = RM45 for a Liverpool match! cheap :)
people were fast filling up the stadium.. the red part at the bottom are South China team supporters (not Liverpool's)..
3rd-4th placing was between Fulham and South China team... the captain of South China team is my new idol.. cute and talented! he won the Man of the Match that night :)
At 8.30pm, the much awaited match started! Everyone was so excited and high...
And our seats were so good! Basically, with cheap student tickets, the seats are not too good.. our assigned section was directly behind the goal... So, to see the whole match, we should sit higher up.. But, we decided we wanted to see the players more than the match.. We sat at about the 3 or 4th row from the net! and the Liverpool players on the bench were warming up right in front of us! at the small small grass part behind the goal net! WaHaHa.. ecstatic!
The star of the night- Steven Gerrard! everytime he turned over, the crowd went crazy! He spent of his time warming up at the little field.. and spent only the last 10 minutes in the match!! Ah! It was a goalless draw at the end of 90 minutes...
Penalty shootout followed and Gerrard was the first to go.. and he SCORED! :)
But the rest of the shootout was a disaster...
Liverpool LOST! unbelievable...
The Man U fans - Jeremy and HY were happy.. the rest were not.. :(
I left the stadium, hungry, sweaty and sad..
Met the rest outside the stadium... and the whole big gang of us went to eat supper at Shatin...
We reached i-house around 1+am and they few of us decided to play bridge after we take our shower...
@2am- KeeHong's room~
only four of us kept to our promise to play!- HY, KH, me and Zhenghui ... we played and played and played.. by the time i looked at my watch it was already 4.30AM! But at that time, we were all very high from analysing our strategies and some wanted to win more... So, we continued playing and by the time we felt tired, the sun had already came out!! it was 6AM when we decided to sleep.. ZzZz
I woke up at 11AM cause was supposed to meet Merlin to get his textbook to study for exams!! Then the same four of us with panda eyes went for lunch at Coffee Corner :)
