Impromptu

I can’t sleep.

I started thinking about all the things I need to do by the end of the
term, and I got a slightly stressed.
Well, a little more than just slightly.

Added to all this, I just remembered I have to do my work term report…
Oooh Noooeeessss

I’m at the Sheraton Princess Hotel at Waikiki Beach, Honolulu right
now. No Facebook for me, it’s banned on these [free] computers (no,
I’m not even staying here… LOL)

So my flight to Japan got delayed 2+ hours, and I missed my connecting
flight by 10 minutes. I could either spend a day in Tokyo and reach
Montreal at 11pm on Nov 18, or go through Hawaii and reach Montreal at
9am. I chose the latter. I even got my ticket bumped to business class
for the flight to Honolulu! XD

I first regretted it, but it turns out that I get 8 hours between my
connecting flights (I didn’t realize until I actually landed… LOL)!
So what did I do? I went up to the info booth, then strolled to the
city bus stop and here I am now, at the Waikiki beach.

Hawaii is SOOOOOO beautiful. OMG!!
The only thing is that I DIDN’T BRING MY CAM arghhhh!!! I was planning
to use my mom’s camera for Boston, so didn’t bring my huge one. No
worries though, I still got tons of pictures in my trusty little Nokia
N95… gotta love it!
Anyways, heading back to the airport now. It’s gotta be the SMALLEST
airport I’ve ever seen (well, other than Tottori)! But everyone’s so
laid back and friendly here, even moreso than in Taiwan – I love this
place! :)

All in all, all the trouble was well worth it for this half-day trip
to Hawaii :)
Let’s just hope the rest of the trip goes smoothly…

I think I’ll just make it a habit to not sleep before flying :)

Maybe I should leave early, since I have nothing to do anyways…
*scratches head*

I also need to get some 鳳利蘇’s at the airport since I didn’t end up
having time to get any today >
Maybe I should just take a stroll to 7-11 right now, print my boarding
pass, then wave a 小黃 over :)

Oh well, see yaaa!

Oooh boy, I think I’ve been a little addicted to Yakult for the past
couple of weeks… *gulp*

It’s always like this.

People always reach for those they cannot reach,
while taking those they have for granted.

I really try to be nice,
but out of sheer arrogance, I always say things I don’t mean
and end up hurting those who care about me.

On the other hand, I remain oblivious to various warnings
and try to please those who are not worth my care,
those who only look as me as a tool.

And I do it again and again, again and again, like a fool…
Why do I never seem to learn?!

I really should learn to discriminate between those who are good to
me, and those who are bad.
Learn to appreciate those who matter, and let go of those who don’t.

For those who care and whom I’ve hurt, I’m sorry.
And for those who don’t care and who hurt me… Goodbye.

Sometimes I feel like paying full price for the items AFTER I’ve
negotiated for cheaper in TW…

I just can’t help but feel guilty for making everything cheaper,
especially since for me it’s only a buck or two cheaper for something
that’s already extremely cheap. For the old lady selling the stuff, it
might be a difference of one whole meal…. I do it just for the fun
of it (and get a tiny little practice with mandarin), but it feels bad
because I’m having fun in the detriment of others.

These few days I’ve just stopped asking for cheaper altogether. It’s
really not that much cheaper, AND I get to save some time to shop
more! :)
I’m sure some of you will laugh and say I’m stupid. But whatever. :)

Finally done with stupid Physiological Psychology midterm!
I’m sure I did HORRIBLE, despite having used my book during the test
and writing it until my time ran up and it booted me out of the system
(which NEVER happens).

I have absolutely NO idea how I’m going to remember everything for the
final… there’s waaay too much material, and it’s pretty ridiculous
how they actually expect you to know what every single neuron does,
from where to where they go, how they go, and what happens if the
neurons are chopped off. Not to mention all those crazy latin names!
Grrr hate biologyyy!

I’m pretty screwed for thursday’s presentation. It’s a
one-and-a-half-hour presentation… I need to read a whole chapter,
several articles, research online AND build a PowerPoint slideshow for
the class all in one day. Gah!

I can’t wait till thursday… after this I’ll be completely
FREEEEE….. then cram again once I get back on the 25th, sigh! >
So what DID I do over my exchange?? :(
