Came across a though provoking quote it relates to my future and made me consider what IS it I want to be and would like to do without having to think of everything else (a dream with no strings attached).




Climate: Wrapping up & Home sickness


Before you get there make sure to check the weather. Where I am going it is currently 12-14 degrees compared to HK's 24 degrees. So make sure you buy some winter clothing before you get there, can't afford to get sick! You can get autumn clothing in both Sogo, M&S, H&M, Cotton On etc.

Home sickness... Even though I may be going there for a few months and will be back in HK for christmas I am pretty sure I will be home sick. I'm sure it will be the same for most of the uni students so rest assured that you are not alone. Here are a few tips to beat homesickness or keep it at bay until you arrive home:

1. Photos : It is a yay or nay kind of thing and may not help homesickness but might act as a trigger.
                  However, see it as a way to help you get by, make you smile and keep you going.

2. FOOD: I am a big fan of HK food and most of it you can't find in the UK like Bo lo bao (Pineapple
                 bun) or cup-noodles. Even the little things can be real tear and stomach jerkers. Haha!
                 Solution, if you have room in your already fat suitcase bring some along the small stuff!

3. Skype/Phone calls: This is also a yay or nay thing but for me it is a BIG yay!

4. Keep yourself busy: Many people think that this is a way to fight it but it is often not the case, it is
                                     only temporary and the problem still remains there
