Mini-Update: HZ's elavaturrrrr

Hey guys,

Just a teaser: my apartment's lift doors requires me to open them manually. If you're exiting the lift from the inside, you have to slide the wooden frame open, and then push the fire-proof door to get out. 

It's very exciting because you get to open the doors when the lift is still moving, and doing this results in me being trapped in that rickety device.

And I live in a very typical HK area, neon-lighted signboards that scream into your eyes, and seedy people leaning against buildings that seem to have dirt smeared all over them deliberately. Soaking it all in from the beginning however, can be overwhelming.

And it's so odd because right below me is a mall that has everything and anything. Puts Mustafa Center to shame!

Fun fact: In Singapore, the shops you know as Guardian are called er. Guardian. Over here, it's called Mannings. In Mandarin you pronounce it Man4 Ning2. Why? I haven't found out.

Another fun fact: it's autumn really soon. Like two more days or a week away.
