Goodbye HK

19/9 Sun

It was a morning flight at 0955. So we woke up quite early at 0630.

Leaving home, as we learnt from CW, is a ritual. Now I had the chance to experience it myself. I thought I would cry, but I didn't. But I was quite stressed out as I yelled at dad at the check-in counter. ("=.=) Definitely not sth to be proud of.

The flight was an ok one. CX 's food is cxxp! They served chicken and omelet for lunch. All chicken were gone. So I needa ear omelet. Of cox I wasted a lot of food. I ate the fillings and left the egg aside. The seats were quite comfortable. Happened to meet a girl from Gunagdong and we chatted a bit. When she heard that I was going to UCL, she gave me that look. (-0-) Um... ya... The lady on my right was on a business trip to Glasgow. Nice lady.

Waited an hr for passport-control. Bad luck. The queue I was in moved at 龜速。When i reached baggage reclaim, my two pieces of luggages were lying on the floor already.

So, there I was, finally, in London. I tried to add 20 pounds to my oyster card only to find that those banknotes dad gave me were out-dated and the machine did not accept them. So, I needed an ATM.

The suitcase was damn heavy. With my backpack on my shoulders, I picked up the suitcase and crawled up the stairs at Holloway Road station. Even with 4 wheels, the suitcase did not move easily at all. It took me 15 mins to reach the hall.

The room feels a bit 自閉 bcox the corridor outside was so narrow. It was quite dirty too. I could see dust everywhere. On top of that, no pillow or quilt. I felt like camping that night.

So far so good.
