"Where do you want to go?" I asked.
"The factory outlets.. I heard things there are cheap.. Adidas, Nike etc. shoes and stuff. Maybe you could take me there as I'm not so used to the place (as if I am.. daaa~)" she replied.
Hmm.. thinking that outside is raining and going to the factory outlets might drag me the whole day as I've got plans of my own too. I told her sorry, I'm not going as I'm not feeling well. "I've got the fever".. Fever as in Kylie's song I was referring to at the back of my head... hehe. (My previous post)
Hang out in the room until 12 noon before I went out to grab something to eat. Had Popeyes Cajun Chicken.. Okaylah.. isi perut punya pasal. After that, off I go to take the Airport Express to the city. Outside is still raining.
Took the ferry across the Victoria Harbour.. cost me HK$2.20 per way.
Then went around Tsim Sha Tsui.. stopped by a masjid and when I found a Bangladeshi.
"Filipinos?" he asked when we shake hands."Malaysia" I replied.
"Ada baik? bagus?" he then asked me.. hehe.
Found out that this feller used to work in Penang. We chit chat after Asar Solah, while waiting for the rain to subsides. Macam2 ada.. cerita pasal PakLah... Anwar... Islam dan lain2.
Off I go then to look for a beg and after almost 2 hours searching for it, and going into and out of rain I gave up. It's actually an old model kind of beg.. hard case box with wheels. Never mind...
To Chungking Mansion next!! makan time before I head back. By the time I reached the mansion I'm almost 50% wet.. hehe. Found this Indian Pakistan restaurant with a Chinese guy
waiting at the door. Cool... Hindi bryani.. that's what I'll have.
There I met with this Arab guy... he was talking to this Indian guy.. the waiter there. I overheard the conversation and end up joining it.
It seems that this Arab guy is stranded in Hongkong while doing business here with his family being in Shenzen due to visa problem.. poor guy.
Here we are 3 people in the restaurant (1 malay, 1 indian and 1 arab, all muslims) talking about muslims and what's happening to to muslims in the world now... He blamed his govt, Saudi being non Islamic in certain sense as they're being held under US' fingers...and that everything can be bought with money even muslim's pride... we talked about
Osama Bin Laden.. and the terrorist attack accused by western media the doing of muslim jihadist around the world which obviously
something non-islamic to do. As we're talking, I then noticed a Mat Salleh lady sitting in the corner ordering food with an uneasy look in her face showing, oopppsss, I guess I'm in the wrong place... :) We had a good chat though. In the end, we all got into a conclusion that being a muslim is not just being one and having it written in our ID. Practicing Islam is the most important thing to do... and being muslim brothers to help each other out. He did ask the Indian guy to come and work for him in Saudi saying that he will treat him well there as brothers of Islam..That's it, time to run back in the rain and catch the next shuttle bus to the train station back to the airport empty handed.. hehe.
Before I settle down and call in the day.. there's 1 more thing I haven't accomplished.
To buy KrispyKreme Doughnuts and import it into Malaysia.. hehe. Went to 2 outlets, in terminal1 and 2 to get the right amount and the right flavour that my client ordered back in KL... hehe.that's it... time to sleep.... tomorrow will be another episode of my life... and ours...
