Day 10:Noticed how I skipped Christmas? We spent it in the hotel lobby hiding from the cold.
Pathetic.
Anyway, it seems like the whole of America is closed, and my throat really wanted to kill me. Yes, it's all that FUCKING burgers, fries, fried chicken and all that other swill the majority of Americans eat.
I'm really not trying to come off as insulting. Personally, I'm just very revolted at how they can eat that stuff daily. I've opted for Chinese food whenever we could ever since the first three days, where we had nothing but fastfood for most meals. It was disgusting, terrible.
Turns out our flight was overbooked, and we couldn't board. My dad went apeshit WTF I WANT TO GO HOME. MY HAIR'S DROPPING, I DIDN'T GET TO EAT MY FRUITS, MY SYSTEM'S MESSED UP I WANT TO GO HOME.
So we were one of the two families who didn't want to off load. FUCK. That was $500 USD per person and free accomodation!
Remember that basketball coach who talked about "bringing the team a complete 360" regarding his failing team? Yeah we went full circle and all of us boarded.
Anyway, we're getting ready to head back to Singapore. 14 hours to Hong Kong, then another 4 to Singapore. Left the airport at about 1 am, REACHED Singapore at about noon.
Funnily, the 14 hours marathon wasn't so bad, not even half as sufferable as the journey there.
It's quite hard to believe, that the next instant you get to see the outdoors, it instantly chagnes to day. Maybe that's what they call jet lag.
Good to be home, either way.
