so everybody everywhere...

...don't be afraid, don't have no fear

I'm watching a BSB special on MTV China. Let's have an update on my ventures. I bought a new phone, again. I now have two phones!! The plan is to sell my Motorola to someone in the city, last case would be to sell it on eBay. Come on people, it can take advantage of the GSM 850 network on Rogers. My new(est) phone is the Sharp 902SH loaded with the SX813 firmware. I'm gonna be the coolest cat on the block.

I've also cruised a few blocks of street vendors. There are t-shirts, flashlights, batteries, lighters, lingerie, CDs, and sex toys. Hell yes, you can buy sex toys on the street. I dunno why, but a mini porn shop on the street is just so funny to me. Just exposed dildos, vibrators, and skimpy thongs on a table with a dirty old man (or woman) selling them. I even saw this huge jade penis, weird.

Comparing Hong Kong and Tokyo? Hong Kong has a much easier train system to travel on, but I guess it's way smaller. Tokyo has better dressed people and prettier girls. Hong Kong is dirtier than Tokyo. There are more polite people in Tokyo. Cell phones are way sweeter in Tokyo (mine new one is Japanese) than in Hong Kong. Japanese cars own. All in all, I love Tokyo. Even though I don't like densely populated places, Tokyo is very much tolerable to me. Not that HK is intolerable, just that I like Tokyo better. I plan on going back in the future.

The next trip is to China tomorrow. We're going to see the terracotta warriors, then go to Shanghai. I'll get my opinion on a third large city there. Until next time...
