Preparing to go home (Update 2)

The last few weeks have been really calm. I haven't really gone out, I've been spending time with a few friends and special people.

We went to this month's Image at Volar and I met some guy who is 7 feet tall. I also have two new workout buddies who I proudly force to sweat. Though Janice had an incident the other day when she lost her wallet at the restaurant we ate at in Mong Kok.

I've got about a week left before my trip back to the T dot. My parents plan to pick me up at the airport so hopefully they'll remember to bring me clothes to wear. I really don't have any clothes for the winter here in Hong Kong. I've been slowly buying things to take back to Canada for my friends and family. So far I've picked up an Instant Dict MD8050 for my mom and a two gig (2 Gig) iRiver S10 mp3 player for Wendy. I'm really looking forward to a white Christmas this year. Not that the fake snow and pine cones aren't nice. The overly commercial Christmas trees are really well done. The feeling without snow just isn't the same.

I had a good lunch today at Genki Sushi. This was my first time eating it, I wasn't overly impressed but the soft shell crab hand rolls were pretty good. We were out with Angie's friend Amy (from Malaysia), Steve, and some of the Dreamodels girls. We were pretty noisy and active but it was a fun lunch.

I've been thinking about buying a pair of sunglasses for a while. I'm looking for a particular style though. I have my eyes on a pair from DKNY, Miu Miu, Fifty Five Diesel and Ray-Ban Someone tell me which one looks better on my face. Thanks to those who have given feed back already.

On a side note good luck to Tsujimoto sensei who flew back to Japan last night. A lot of people are leaving this holiday it seems.

Edit 2006.12.11: Updated the sun glasses picture and experimenting with voting.

Update 2 (2007.02.28): Thanks for the votes people. I've listened to the masses and I've decided to go with the DKNY. I was lucky because one of my friends has a friend working at that particular store and managed to get me a good deal. I'll post the results of the voting and a picture of the final purchase.
