Wells. You know what blows?

I am officially scared of Chinese New Year. Forever and ever. And must be far far away from it.

On the other hand, after the holidays, for about a week, my bus stops and supermarkets and work email are so empty and quiet and ahhh nice, I'm gonna miss it once things start to pick up again.

Anyhoo...

My magazine started doing regular spa features again since January, after not really having done them for over a year, and while I am far from a spa connoisseur and have only been to a few, I pretty much get the gist and must say I am already quite certain of my favourite. I can't imagine a cooler spa, basically. It's the one in the W Hotel. Bliss Spa. I love Bliss products and was really excited to go for the treatments, just b/c it's freakin' BLISS. Best smelling (and great working) beauty products ever. The hotel had set up two treatments for me: oxygen blast facial and double choc pedicure. OMG! I was excited just hearing the names. How can oxygen be bad? And chocolate? I had no idea what a chocolate pedicure is but I'll take it!

Anyway, it was ultra cool. That's all I'm gonna say. Read all about it in our March issue. Teehee. Oh, sidenote, I love W Hotel (at least the one here). It helps that it's brand spankin' new, but it's the coolest hotel (hyperbole coming...) EVER. People who think it's too modern, pointless and random... well I don't understand those peeps. All new hotels are gravitating toward the modern look, so they better get used to it. The PR took me on a tour and I was gasping at everything in the rooms, the avant garde art in the restaurants, the cool employees in their cool outfits, aiii I love it. And sometimes I see how jaded people are and it's sad in a way to be jaded about modern marvels, technology, design, luxury, etc. Let's all be dai heung lei's and aliens and find everything fascinating.

BTW, Bliss Spa is freakin' expensive. I think BEST VALUE high-end spa in HK (from the ones I know at least) is Landmark Mandarin Oriental's Oriental Spa, especially their monthly specials.
