Allergic to Sun

I have insisted that I am allergic to the Sun.  I had a mild sun stroke today and I finally got some photographic evidence.


This is my inner arm.  I cannot find an explanation why I am getting rashes.  They are only in the inner arms, where is rarely exposed to UV.

It could not be food allergy, as I had not contained any protein other than gluten all day, and when my allergic reaction to lamb is rashes everywhere.  It would not be sun screen, as other sun screen areas did not have rashes.  It would not be allergens in the house, again, it is localised.  My mother speculated it could be the water in the thrill rides, but rashes areas did not include legs, as it would have been in contact with the splashes longest.

I resort to have a shower middle of the night to relieve my itches.  So I do have problem with the Sun!  (I am also glad to confirm other people could have the same problem.)

Hong Kong Reminders

Perhaps everytime I come back it to refresh my memories that I am better elsewhere.

I have only been here three days, all the reminders had kicked in.  Weather, insects, family, poor quality of sleep.

Even Sarah worked out why I always frown in my old pictures.

Hong Kong Stock Markets

Hot money came into Hong Kong and everything went mad.  I was told to short sell, but I am too lazy.  So I just sell off some unwanted stocks.  Most thought the hot money will still come for the next few days, but I just sold them as I just wanted to get rid of them.  I was glad I sold them quick, the market came down today.  Greed is why we are stuck with unwanted crap.

Modern Propaganda - Cold War

One of the movie I watched was Cold War.  The story line is great, the acting is good, the action is well choreographed.  But the more into the movie, the more I think it is a propaganda.

The modern and expensive way to bring out a public announcement, but it was a nicely done one.

De-haired

A haircut was in the itinerary.  As soon as I finished lunch, I went to the barber.  The barber did not recognised at first, then as soon as she started cutting, and I kept her to continue to cut, she recognised me.  Carol loved my new haircut, aka old haircut.  Now I am summer ready!

Very Long Day

In order to combat jet lag, we power through Sunday.  It was a very very long day.

Cathay Pacific Disappointment

When Sarah booked Cathay Pacific, I was quite excited.  It was proven to be a disappointment.

The blanket was substandard, the ice-cream was not Haagen Dazs, the cup noodle was not good, and to top it off, one of the flight attendant was a bitch.
