On Saturday, Ruth showed me some more shopping places (yeah, I blame it all on you, Ruth), first the Landmark building with all the exclusive brands such as Louis Vitton and the rest of the posh stuff, bit over my budget. She then took me to Stanley at the very south of HK island. There was a nice market. And yeah, the Chinese are really good at faking stuff, good on ya fellas. On Sunday, I then went shopping on my own. First I went to Tsim Sha Tsui, to have a suit taylored. It's really cheap here. You wouldn't get a decent suit from the rack for that money in Switzerland. After that, I went on to the Ladies Market in Mong Kok and again the Night Market in Jordan. Not a good idea, I bought heaps of stuff, got even talked into buying a fake watch. Now, I'm the big pretender :)
Ok, that was the expensive part of the weekend, now comes the crazy one. Remember, I told you about the Hey Hey club on Thursday. Yeah, Filip, my flatmate, met a girl that night, who turned out to be a crazy stalker, no kidding. They met before I left for shopping, and she was still there, when I got back at night, and didn't want to leave... Well, I went to bed coz I had to work the next day. They would go on fighting in Cantonese and once in while she would start whining. Finally, I managed to fall asleep wearing earplugs. But all of a sudden she was standing in my room and scared the shit out of me! Apparently, she didn't get what she wanted from Filip and was now settling for less. Aaaahhh, get the hell out of my room crazy b.....unny. She went on whining to Filip for another while, and finally, finally, we convinced her (only verbally, folks) to leave. Then I had an earnest word with Filip. Why the hell couldn't he just kick her out? What was the problem? He then revealed that she was from a rich and powerful family and that she had threatened him. Whaaaat?! Don't wanna get slaughtered by the triads, man! Well, we then both went to bed, but I didn't sleep much. Funny enough, the next morning, when I left for work, there were to old guys peering at our building with binoculars. Scary, aye?! But probally only two old voyeurs. I hope!
