Jim's Survival 13 days Guide in Hong Kong and Shanghai

Moving Around
There is no guide in moving around actually... Just pop onto any bus and MOVE!! Train? no problem.. simply follow the arrow and direction... HAHAHA.. Cab? ermmm... didn't took cab in HK wor.. so dunno how to flag a cab in HK... Flagging a cab in Shanghai? was forced to take a cab due to the sardine-packed trains and buses... Cab in Shanghai? ermmmm... u gotta snatch and fight for the cab... DASH for the cab during peak hours, I mean...

Eating
Eating guide? just open ur mouth, use ur teeth to chew and swallow it... hahahaha... no guide actually... I simply walked around... and go into any eating and eat... what is so difficult? HK? no worries... food are simply nice... price wise? ermmm... HK food are slightly more expensive... BUT u pay what u get... meaning... the food are good, what do u expect? hahahaha.. Shanghai? ermmm... please don't kill me for it... practically, food is extremely cheap and good... and yes... I ate from streets hawkers and to the posh restaurant... and which meal nvr cost more than 30 SGD... cheapest? less than 1 SGD... hahahahaha...

Night Life
Okay... call me crazy... I went to the the club in HK BUT due to the CROWDS!! you can nvr see that crowds in SG... I gave up and went to a nearby pub for drink... a eastern-western fusion pub... Shanghai? hahaha... went to their "clarke quay" ermmm... nothing much la... but I went to a very unique pub which u need to do some lock combination in order to enter the pub... so unique! OH ya... I just forget to mention about nightlife in HK... I guessed those living in HK don't sleep... there are more than ten 7-11 shops within 300m area from where I stayed!!

Sick?
Yes, I felt "sick"... therefore I need my medicine which I will go to the Starbucks cafe nearby... Starbucks coffee, my daily needs! hahahaha...

Fashion
Please! I must admit... Girls in HK look prettier than SG... they are so fashion wise! dress so well... No need to worry about clothing in HK... you can easily get a trendy clothes in any shop... may it be Ladies Market or shopping centre... Shanghai? YES! please kill me.... dressing sense is totally so OUT!!! wearing pyjamas with leather shoes? aiya... there are a lot difference la... and yes... people will stare at you when u wear something too trendy... I am forced to wear like them... arh! to avoid the glance BUT of coz not pyjamas with leather shoes... hahaha...

Street caution? - Beggars
Beggars in HK? nope... hardly saw 1... so... no worries... Shanghai? PLEASE... BEGGARS are almost everywhere! and yes... NVR give them money, no matter how pathetic they may look with young child or baby... why? coz once u started, u can't stop... witnessed 3 times that beggars swarmed out of nowhere after someone gave money...

Street caution? - Vehicles
Same rule apply everywhere ba... look out for traffic.. Traffic lights are everywhere but still, look twice before crossing... BUT some warning here for Shanghai.. ermmm.. traffic move in a opposite direction and please please please look out for traffic EVEN it is green man... a car will appear out of nowhere... haha and yes... be extra careful about bicycle.. they do not need to abide to the traffic rules and at times they may just dash straight into u... and yes... vehicles in Shanghai horn like nobody business...

I think the guide end here? will add on when I have other things that knock on my brain... kekee
