i'm back (yay!...not really)

I’m back from my mini-vacay and seriously, it’s hurting. Well yea, the aussie dollar was WAY too strong when I was over there and that did hurt. And the day I arrive back in HK, the news lady told me that the economy is crashing and the aussie dollar has gone down a bit. That hurt too. But what hurts most, is the fact that … I’m not in the Land of Oz anymore. No more sleep-ins till 1pm and then roll out of bed and walk across the street for some fabulous brunch. No more sitting at outdoor cafes sipping lattes and watching beautiful people in amazing outfits walk by (I swear the milk tastes better over there, and I swear the same clothes look better over there. It’s like miracle land). No more rolling around in my tiny town house but thinking it is magnificently HUGE. No more getting dressed up and wearing heels and NOT HAVING TO WALK because I can drive. No more eating dinners for 3 hours and still not getting kicked out. No more desserts and wonderful coffee. Oh have I mentioned the coffee?? Now all I have left is Starbucks. Ew. They should not be allowed to use the name “coffee” for whatever it is that they’re serving. EWW.

Wow. What an angry and depressing post. Don’t worry. I’ve been feeling a little ill since I been back which makes this whole post-holiday blues even worse.


PS. Can someone just “develop” airsickness? I never used to get air sick but these recent flights have got me throwing up every 10 minutes. Good thing my seat was by the aisle and close to the toilets. Bleh.

k. bye.
