I can fly!

Last night was awesome. My friends here went out to Prince Edward in Kowloon with a buddy of ours from class. Wesker was a local Chinese fellow and he invited us to go out and try the local Hong Kong night life.

So of course we said yes.

Anyhow we started out by having some food at a little restaurant that according to Wesker was famous for wonton noodles. So the eight of us each ordered some and enjoyed dinner. It's always good to eat off campus because it is so easy to confuse campus food with Chinese food.

Here's a picture I snapped of Wesker outside the restaurant. Just to let you know, the baby blue car he is styling in front of ain't his. Ha ha ha ha...

Afterwards Wesker took us down the street to a bar he knew. Definitely not a place for over paid expats looking for booze and women.

The bar's name of all things was "Sober Street" and I am not sure why. But I kinda like the irony. Here's a shot of the interior where they had a bar, tables, and some lounging chairs. There was a big screen TV pumping out Cantonese Karaoke videos, and a couple of dart boards.

The bar was full of local chinese of various walks of life. Some were just out for a laugh and some seemed to be running away from their office since they were still wearing their suits.

We ordered three dozen beers that came in a giant bucket of ice! Then we learned the local drinking games where you use dice in a cup, or you use your hands to guess how many fingers will be help up by you and your adversary. It was a great night and good time.

Towards the end of the night I saddled up next to Wesker at the bar and asked him why his name is Wesker. Well, its the name of a character from his favorite video game. Wesker you are so cool, but you just don't know it. Cheers mate!
