*Only in HK*
I MADE IT! 16 hours in a bloody tin can - halfway across the world...
The first thing I heard after setting foot on Chinese turf?? A big, burly American gent saying:
"I could do with a burrito right about now. Where's the Taco Bell here?"
My question is this - Who flies halfway across the world looking for Taco Bell?!???? Jeez...
It was one MAJORLY weird day. I ran into a friend I haven't seen in 6 years! We were on the flight from Newark to HK together, and it was so strange! We took some time to catch up and I think we're going to make more of an effort now to keep in touch... After I got into the HK airport, I waited for Sam to get in from Toronto via Chicago... and while waiting, I called Connie and Michelle. The next weird thing that happened was that I got Michelle's brother instead of Michelle on the phone. I haven't spoken to Mark in 8 years. THAT was strange too...
Next, as I was getting off the train in the city... I ran into an old colleague of mine from ESF. Seriously, all this running into people has freaked me out a little... But it was good, because it's psyched me up a little about this holiday season. Maybe it won't be so bad afterall??
I hate that when I got home and jumped into the shower, the bathroom was FILLED (literally stuffed) with all sorts of "weight-loss" lotions, shower gels and gadgets. I REALLY hate sharing a bathroom with my sister, especially in HK where all this crap is so accessible. I'm reminded again that I'm not "slim". *gag*
Right... need to sleep... I'm going to post more about how unfair life is... Here's a hint: My parents know NOTHING about techie gadgets, but...~
