An office was throwing a costume party
I went dancing last night. It was a blast and a half. Like a true Hong Kongnian, we bar/ club hopped - a lot. Bar hopping in Hong Kong can be fun and very tiring. There are plenty of places to choose and most places don't call for a cover charge (Oh how I love it) which is why we can bar hop to almost anywhere.

We went to Wan Chai and then Lan Kwai Fong. Wan Chai hosts numerous amounts of expats usually businessman while LKF hosts more tourists and a younger crowd. Besides, there is more dancing up in that area. However, Wan Chai is also known as the red light district so while we were walking to the bars, we passed by several "gentlemen club" and I mean several. It's just rows and rows of these clubs lined up next to each other like apples in a supermarket.

Bars here close at 4am - 5am during the weekend. During the weekday? It's more like 3 - 4am. It may sound like fun but drinks here are super expensive but people don't seem to mind so one can spend $1000+ (US) a night if they wish and

let me tell you there is always something going on at night. It's a little odd because I wonder if people here ever sleep. Ladies night is where it's at - we seriously know how to do it up. Ladies drink for free in most clubs and it's not silly hours like 8pm - 10pm. It could go on till 1am or no time limit at all. So you can imagine why people enjoy staying out super late - and it's the holidays.

Before any of that happened, I surprised my best friends 😊 It took a lot of control not to tell them that I was here and a bit of planning which by the way failed but it was great to see them either way. Also went back to my high school for an "end of term" assembly. Then I met up with a very good friend of mine from high school to have lunch and walk around Mong Kok again.
