Shi, wo shi hen gao de nu ren.

Only been in Hong Kong for 3 hours. Already not liking hearing the word "gao" so much. i'd better get used to it...

"Gao" means tall. i guess i know Chinese after all!

Hong Kong Airport

HK airport is one of the quietest places i've ever been in my life. After a 20-hr flight, and finally being able to move, it feels as if time is passing more quickly. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that i'm reaching the end of my 24-hr nicotine patch, but it's working so far or passengers would have lost heads during that 20-hr confinement.
I'm looking forward to dropping my stuff off at the hostel in Wuhuoci, going across the street to the Manjusri temple and gardens, eating the best vegetarian food in the world, and simply sitting.
