PART 3: Recap on Winter Break

PREVIOUSLY: We spent a day and an evening at Hong Kong Disneyland and the following morning, we had to get ready and pack again cause we were checking out of Disney and moving into the city. While my parents were checking out, my sisters and I were at the arts and crafts room with the “elves” lol. I met Garfield, lol, I guess that’s his English name. He confirmed some Tagalog words he knew, practiced his English with me, and expressed his plans on visiting the Philippines. He was a student working part-time, like myself, and he was very artistic. He made me a Minnie Mouse décor out of wood, super cool (btw the décor isn't photogenic)We took some photos around Disney too.Was quite a long ride to the other island.That same evening, I took the MTR to the last stop, Tung Chung, to meet with Filipino performers from Disney. My old dance teacher from Powerdance was now working with Disney and is a part of the Lion King musical so I thought it would be great to interview them for INQUIRER.net.So I scheduled to meet with them only to find out that after a 1-hour commute at 10PM, that interviews were prohibited as part of their contract with Disney. I think it was forever engraved into his mind that I was still like a baby that all along he kept thinking it was for a project or thesis or something school-related and not for my profession. I could not even fully show the extent of my frustration since I did not want them to lose their jobs just so I could get a story, but indeed smoke was coming out my nose when Joseph told me it wasn’t possible. So we just sat around outside the station, in the cold, and reminisced. I had to get back before midnight because the MTR station closes at 12.

It was a rough night that night, and the next day, we just walked around all over town for some shopping since it was our last day in Hong Kong. No pictures that day, it was a day off from my camera.
