Re: my last post! It's made me sick!
I've been eating like crap, I know it, and you can tell just based on my last post. Starting from yesterday evening I started having a stomachache, nothing major. Then today it got vicious. I mean, really bad, me collapsed on the bed, first reading the Bell Jar, then humming the death scenes of famous operas, then saying "ouch ouch ouch ouch," this went on for a few hours. Then I decided I wanted medical attention and called my dad to take me to the hospital on his way home from work. In anticipation of his picking me up, I charged my cell phone and went fetal on the couch. Which, miraculously, cured my pain. I tried to call him back and tell him I was feeling way better and he didn't need to get me anymore, but his phone was forwarding to the office. Oh well. He got here and I said I was feeling way better and I'd rather he take me to get congee. So that's what we did. And this is what you get for HK$30 set during afternoon-tea time (ends at 6pm): very large bowl of congee, a quite large fancy drink (such as what we got: mango tapioca drink, pearl coffee/tea yeen yeung), quite large dessert (such as what we got: sesame tong shui, tofu fa... ok I know these are like the worst translations ever). I couldn't help getting zha leung, even though I know it's probably not good for the stomach. My dad, having possibly never had set afternoon tea like ppl like me perpetually living in "recent college grad" lifestyle, was impressed with the cheapness.
