back
i'm finally home. as i met my parents at the airport, a sense of belonging came over me. but there was also a sense of coming back down to earth. the whirlwind exchange journey has finally ended.
hk wasn't nice to me at the end, as torrential rain came down, seemingly to chase me away. but since i have been largely well-treated in the time i was there, i shall forgive it. with proper hk tradition, i ended my exchange yumcha-ing with my hk classmates :)
as i attempted to spend my last hk dollars at the airport, i felt regret at not doing some things. the big pile of coins i have left over was supposed to go to some ppl, somewhere, but i've not managed to get rid of them.
ah well. all i want now is some peace and quiet in my own room, after enduring 3 hrs of a torturous flight. the two ladies sitting beside me yakked non-stop for the entire 3 hrs. and i'm not using 'non-stop' metaphorically. i wonder how some ppl have so much to talk abt.
no matter, cos i'm just thankful that i'm home.
