I need a minute!!! Gimme a minute to sit down.. take a deep breath..and write this long overdue blog!! I've been on the go for the past 5 days... I'm so tired!

I had such a FABULOUS weekend! It was fun and hectic and I loved every minute of it! It started off FABULOUSLY on friday afternoon when i met up with my lilly in the city and we did some shopping ( i was frantically looking for a dress to wear to prom and lilly saved me from the brink of desperation by finding me a cute sexy black dress... and most importantly..CHEAP!) lol We had a lovely dinner with a nice bottle of wine and chatted for hours, and then roamed the bars a little but opted for an early night.

Saturday morning i made the long journey to Candace's place and the plan was to do gym together. She called me while i was on my way and the conversation went something along these lines:

SHE: Sooooooooo there's a bodybalance class from 12 to 1, and after i got my personal trainer from 1 to 2, and at 2 there's a body pump class, and maybe after we could do hill training on the threadmill......

ME: Did you have a plate of CRAZY for breakfast?!?!?!

Plans were obviously changed because otherwise i wouldnt be here today to type this post. We limited ourselves to hill training and the bodypump class which was actually torturous and i was taking pleasure from seeing the pain in lilly's face - serves you right you stuck up gym freak!! :P

Prom Prom Prom... I know you are all dying to hear about this! hahahahahaha! Oh it was such a great party! As i suspected most people just dressed nicely but a couple did have funny costumes. They also had Prom King, Prom Prnce, and Prom Princess awards ...all won by boys... mainly because it was a gay party so the boys wanted all the drama-queen attention! ..except that my date won prom PRINCESS which is worth some further investigation!! hahahahaha So the boys had a good time in their tiaras and the club was full and everybody danced and had a great time! Grahams friends were very sweet to me but i did seem to get a couple of icy-stares... i think i have competition...some of the boys wanna get their hands on my hot date!!! Usually women have to worry about other women but it seems like i have to worry about BOTH!! hahahahahaha! I love a good challenge ;-)

Sunday we had a lovely day planned out at one of Hong Kong's neighbouring islands... so i was up early and switched from prom mode to adventure-woman! The island of Cheung Chau is only half an hour away but it seems like a world away from the busy streets of HK. This island is laid-back...jam packed with delicious seafood restaurants..and no cars in sight! Our plan was to kayak and the weather was great and it turned out to be a fantastic day! Courtesy of Candace.. here are a couple of photos to document the day:

Me and lilly getting all cosy on our kayak! Sun ... sea... BLISS!
