Megan arrives in less than three hours. I can't leave for the airport yet because then I'll just be sitting there watching the clock aimlessly, hoping by some chance her flight got in super early. 1 hour and 10 minutes. I can leave in 1 hour and 10 minutes. Why does it take so long to get to Hong Kong from Tokyo? Sigh... And this is why I'm updating my blog. I don't really have anything particularly special to say or describe; I'm just killing time.
This week hasn't been that exciting. Just normal - going to class, eating, doing some homework, reading... I'm slowly getting more and more claustrophobic from the lack of exercise, fresh air, and space. Thank goodness I am leaving Hong Kong in 24 days. There's a good chance that if I stayed any longer I would of gone crazy. Well, not really. But I'm just really glad I am leaving soon.
It's kind of funny what perspective does to time. Two and a half years ago when I went to South Korea for three weeks, I thought it was such a long time! A month in Guangzhou last summer - that seemed like an era! Now that I've been in a foreign country for just over three months and I have three and a half more weeks left to go, those 24 days seem like such a short time, yet not quite short enough.
I'm so excited for Megan to come. We have lots planned and it's always fun to see your best friend :-) After Megan leaves, I will finally have to face all the long term assignments that will finally be due. That doesn't sound like a fun prospect. But! I can't complain. The workload this semester really has not been that heavy. In fact, I feel like I've barely done any work compared to what I'm used to back at home. Next semester will be rude awakening.
