Here's an update that'll probably go unnoticed . . .
So here I am, sitting in a hotel in Shanghai, pounding out keys on my dad's laptop (seems I'll have internet powers after all!). I've finally figured out how easy it is to figure out the time back home; by myO standards (or Eastern Standard Time), Shanghai and Hong Kong are exactly twelve hours ahead. So yeah, since it's almost 10 in the morning here, that means it's 10pm over where you guys more or less are . . . heh, which means that in about two hours no one will notice this update and it'll be . . . today, by my standards (it's already Friday! What the hell?!).
Ahem, so let's see . . . flight from Vancouver to San Francisco was pretty uneventful on Tuesdsay morning, then while waiting for my next flight I had a bowl of ramen at some Japanese place in the airport . . . then it was a 13-ish hours flight from San Fran' to Hong Kong . . . they showed freakin' five movies! Poseidon, X3, Cars, The Devil Wears Prada, and Pirates of the Caribbean (funny enough, three of those had scenes that came up after the credits . . . the things you pay attention to when you can't leave the room, huh?).
Alright, it seems like I gotta go now, so I'll hafta do the ultra-post another time, most likely when I come home. Suffice to say, I'm still alive, Shanghai is a VERY different kind of beast from Hong Kong or Vancouver or what have you (lotsa smog, lotsa cars beeping, lotsa bicycles . . . and there are NO rules for the road!), annnd . . . heh, the water is very hard over here.
It's been good so far, more or less. I'll tell ya more next chance I have!
