Onto Hong Kong

so another blog entry written in a plane.. i think i am almost driven by boredom, pulling out my laptop and using precious battery power.. oh well sleep is evading me and i have already read on book and have delved into another.. at this rate i will finish my 73 books in a couple weeks and be at a loss of what to do next in my spare “me” time..

today started off a little early woke up at 630.. im actually surprised i slept pretty much the whole night through. i woke up a few times and had to remind myself i was not at home.. i got really confused at one point.. but all was well and we checked out of our hotel at 715 got on the bus at around 745 and left for the airport.. got to chat to my sis and one of my bffffffs laura.. made the ride go faster..

andddd then the airport.. oh how i love disorganization.. on my own time.. we had everything well planned out.. our group split up into two lines to make the check in process not as um ardous for the united airlines personel.. turns out the group i was in went to a line no one was servicing.. it was nice to stand around for 45 minutes while we got to watch the other group check in and leave us.. finally a whole bunch of people came out of the back and started checking us in.. i think we were all done in just a half hour tops afterwords.. we then decided to get through security since a massive line was forming and that only took like 5 minutes compared to waiting to check in.. im seeing something wrong with this picture.. but at least we all made it through in one piece..

got a chance to grab some food with a bunch of people at this mexican restaurant.. i grabbed a yogurt.. i figured i may not get a chance to have the stuff im used to for awhile.. and mexican you can find anywhere.. just maybe not the same mexican style food.. i decided to break out early go call my parents say bye and say bye to everyone one last time with my phone.. kind of bittersweet knowing that i wont be using that number for awhile.. not even sure if ive used bittersweet correctly in that sentence.. but oh well..

and finally we boarded the plane.. a bunch of us have seats by each other which is really nice.. of course all the movies showing this flight ive seen or are on my external hard-drive.. limits my entertainment a little bit.. i wanted to sleep but im finding it a little difficult.. i am tired.. i just cant find a great position.. we only have like 4/5 hours left so i guess i could try and find a comfortable (hah) napping position.. now im back is starting to ache because of my bookbag.. it weights so much.. i cant wait till we can finally settle down and i dont have to constantly lug it around.. only a couple more daysss!

to end it off id just like to add a personal note.. i dont want to seem demanding and i dont know who reads this blog but i really am going to be in the position, if not really already, that im going to need a lot of love and support thrown my way.. i thought it would be a little bit easier getting up and starting my life but im finding myself on the precipice of potentially getting very homesick/depressed.. i know everyone has a life and im not asking for a whole lot.. the next few weeks may not allow me to access the internet a whole lot but id appreciate it to the moon and back if i had at least one thing to read or laugh at when i can get online..

i know you all are awesome.. id never doubt that.. i wish i coulda packed a whole lotta people into my suitcase and shared this with them as well..

well love you all :)

The wide ocean right after take off from San Fransisco and my last view of America
