Helloooo from half a globe awayyyyy.

Hollaaaa. It has been like 10 days here in Williamsburg. Back to this same old place, everything smells the same, what upsets me is that the fun company that I used to hang out with are no longer here anymore. Boohoo. :(

Drop that.

Lemme story you how bad everything was before I safely arrived here. I went through storms to feel the soil here okay. LOL. Checked in at KLIA and the crew told me that I have to check out in Shanghai and recheck in because it's the policy in Pudong. My baggage cannot be sent to my final destination. I was like, WTF?!?! ARE YOU KIDDING?!? My layover time was only 1hour 35 minutes. How the hell am I going to make that through??

I insisted that I couldn't make it and that's a very big possibility of me missing my flight from Shanghai to Chicago. She called to ask her superior but to no avail. I HAVE TO FUCKING CHECK OUT MY BAGGAGE AND RECHECK IN! The best thing I could do was to request for front seat so that I could get off the aircraft quicker than others. I was so worried and I wanted to die at that moment. But everything's set, and I have to go with the flow.

THANKS GOD flight touched down in Shanghai half an hour earlier and it didn't take me that long when I was in the immigration queue. I claimed my baggage, rushed all the way to departure hall and checked myself in. I thought everything was good because at least at that moment I knew, I won't be missing my flight.

When I was checking in, the crew told me, the flight to Chicago was full and there was no seat available for me. I was stunned because I've NEVER thought of things like that to come into place. HOW THE HELL IS THAT POSSIBLE THAT YOU DON'T FUCKING GET A SEAT WHEN YOU HAVE PAID FOR YOUR AIR TICKET?!?! I questioned, and he asked me to wait for a good 10minutes and he assured me he would get me a seat. And he did.

When I went into the aircraft, I had the same seat with a gentleman. We were both having the seat 25C. T________T It took awhile for the air attendant to clear that hassle and I got my seat at last. Alhamdulilah thank you kuan yin ma.

Touched down in Chicago ON TIME. Layover was 1hour 50 minutes. And when I thought everything was cool and I'm gonna be alright, SHITS HAPPENED AGAINNN! RAWRRRRRRRR!!! This queue for immigration took me 4 hours. 4 freaking hours!! And if you do go to school, you'd know that I missed my connecting flight to Richmond. MARDERRR, WHY DO YOU HAVE TO TREAT ME LIKE THIS??? T__________T

I had to go to customer service counter to explain everything so that they could reissue me a new ticket. And they did that free of charge because it wasn't my fault to be late, it was the immigration's.

AND AFTER ALL THE SHITS THAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH, I FINALLY TOUCHED DOWN IN RICHMOND AIRPORT. Alhamdulilah thank you kuan yin ma FOR REAL!

First thing to do when I touched down was to contact momma and Eugene, they were really worried I think (I HOPE -_-) because by right, I should have arrived. After all hassles, it was alright because I reached here in one piece still. At least I got to experience gan jeung moment like that and you don't. HAHAHAHA. Okay, self comforting FAILED. T__T

Morgan was the one to collect me from the airport, sorry to keep you waiting. And thanks for waiting!!

Now I'll let the pictures do the talking of what I've been doing for the past few days. Enjoy! :))


Before that, let me introduce my housemates, Penny and Tonya. :))
