			Cool, I take it that you sold it for a profit?     
younwun, you wouldn't have so much as a problem of communicating, as most ppl have at least a bare minimum knowledge of english these days, as ppl thinking you're arrogant for speaking english to them. 
At the new place I used to work I thought the office language was english and on my second day a colleague flat out told me "don't speak to me in English, our mother tongue is Chinese".  I was shocked for 2 seconds before I told her in english "well then that's just too bad for you isn't it? cause I'm not gonna change the way I speak".  Anyway we get along fine now that I set my rules with ppl    
But on the other hand, you'd get faster/better services if you spoke english and also they can't hold an arguement with you lol    Quote:     Originally posted by Fran   i use to live right on top of the kowloon station too.   |

			Been away and back again for 2 months.... wrote down a long train of thought while I was on the plane the other day but it's still on my laptop, will post that later... 
On another note, finally found a Zero Halliburton in HK and someone stole it out of my car after only 2 months..... only satisfaction I get is the look on the damn bastard's face when he opens up my case expecting $$$$ and only finds a camera and some docs.... on the down side, I had to reapply for my passport (pain in the ass since they tried to grill me on how it was stolen, etc and I asked them if I SOLD my passport to someone, would I have sent an email to a customs supt to be on the look out for ME?)   
Anyway, here's more pics!  
Charity function      
mMmMm road side strawberry stands in China.... yes I'm still alive after eating them and surprisingly they're quite good
