Today should be called Christmas in July for my family as there was a lot of shopping happening on this day. My little bro and mom went to Causeway Bay where it is very busy with people. Dad and I went to Sham Shui Po to shop for electronics and neat gadgets. Dad and I spent a good sum of money in about 4 hours and there were still things that we have to go back for. Bro and mom didn't spend a lot at Causeway Bay and we met back at Grandma's house for lunch. After lunch, bro and I stayed in the house and played games while Dad and mom went out to buy clothes. Mom bought clothes, about double the worth of what dad and I spent on electronics, and in 2 hours too (it took Dad and I 4 hours to shop)! Girls are scary when it comes to shopping. We went out to eat Hot Pot at an expensive and very well known place for SEAFOOD. Well Hot Pot is fun because you're making the food on your own, making sure we're not mixing seafood and non-seafood stuff was a bit hard, but everything worked out in the end.

This day is Typhoon day, or should I say Just a piddly shower with gusting winds. I thought it was a real big typhoon (pacific hurricane), but it was grossly overexaggerated. I packed everything in my backpack thinking that we might have to stay at Grandma's place for a few days while it was wild outside. Oh well, I guess I was over-prepared. I spent the day anyways writing the past few entries, and making sure bro doesn't blind anyone with the laser pointer gifts that dad and I bought for relatives and colleagues.
