My second trip to Hong Kong
Hey all, haven't updated in awhile, one reason is that i'm not in Hong Kong anymore. Not expecting anyone to read this either, but never know. Anyway, in full swing back here in minnesota, and just got back from Spring Break a week ago. It was absolutely amazing!!!
Went back to Hong Kong to visit Crystine, which was well, well worth it. I'm so glad I was able to see her. It seems like it has been forever. I left on Thursday afternoon Central US time, and arrived in Hong Kong friday night at 10:30 HK time. I got off the plane, and walked/ran all the way to customs. I just wanted to get out of the terminal. I was in such a hurry to get out of there to see the girl I came for waiting on the other side of the doors. I went through customs pretty quickly and then got to the luggage carousel. Waited about 10 minutes there, saw my bag, and walked as fast as I could. There she was when I walked out of the glass doors. Standing along the railing, looking so wonderful. We both were so shocked. I couldn't believe I was there, and she couldn't believe I came back. She couldn't even wait for me to get out of the main walkway, and she ran out into it and hugged me. It was such a wonderful feeling. Seeing her was something almost unreal. I poked her a bit, and she poked me too, just to see if we were real. It seemed like a dream. We then just kind of walked around and then went to the bus stop and caught a bus home to Mei Foo. The whole bus ride back, we talked and just took in the moment. Was so great. Such an amzing feeling holding her hand, and having her head on my shoulder. I loved it. We both were so happy. Can't even describe the feeling. Just unreal. We then got to the bus terminal in Mei Foo and walked into the center shopping area. We stopped at a congee place and Crystine ordered some congee. We took it home and then she ate it while I ate my leftover sub from Subway that I bought before boarding the airplane. After our late dinner, went and took showers, then went to bed. Such a wonderful feeling being with her. Just amazing.
The week was wonderful. Saturday went shopping and to a concert, Anthony Wong. Was pretty good, but we both were too tired. Sunday we went across the border to Shenzhen for lunch with Crystine's family. It was very nice to meet her mom, dad, brother and sister, and also her brothers girlfriend. Everyone was extremely nice and funny. Her mom suprised me a few times by asking Demi, Crystine's sister, how to say things in english, and then later her mom would say it to me. One time she told me to "eat more". So cute and funny. After lunch, we said bye to her mom, dad, brother(Jacky) and Wendy, and then went with Demi shopping at some other places. We first went to Starbuck's and ordered something to drink while we waited for Demi's boyfriend, Arron. We drank our coffee and talked, and then were told where to go shopping for cheap things. We went to this market and bought some pretty cool things. It soon started raining really hard, and then once it let up, we went out to go to the other place we had gone shopping before to look for a suitcase for my mom. A short metro ride later, we went out into the streets and shopping. Got the suitcase, bought some DVD's, some snacks, and then went back to the border to buy one more thing at the big shopping mall there. Got the jacket for my sister, then went back home to Hong Kong. Such a nice feeling to go back. Always feels so good. I know Crystine loves going back. Exhausted, we went home and went to bed. Crystine has class the next day, and I will meet her later for Dim Sum. The rest of the week was very similar. Went to Disneyland on Wednesday, which was very nice. So much fun to be with Crystine, all the time. Thursday met with a guy from 3M Hong Kong, and found out that 3M in Hong Kong is all marketing and sales. No engineers needed. Oh well. I then met crystine on her way to school, and then waited around while she attended her classes. We ate lunch right when we got to school, then she went off to class, and I read my book. Later, after her classes, we went to the library to study, because Crystine had an exam on Friday. We then went home once again, and went to bed. Friday was fun, just took it easy after her exam. Went shopping and walking around and just hung out. Saturday we went to a show, Around the World in 80 Days. Very good. Was pretty funny, although it was hard for Crystine since there weren't any subtitles. She enjoyed it also. After the show, we met up with mason and some of his friends and sister and her husband, and went to a bar. We ate some dinner, and had a f ew drinks, then went home to sleep and spend the last few hours together before my flight on Sunday at 8:50am. After a somewhat scary morning, didn't wake up quite on time, we got to the airport, went to McDonald's, had some breakfast, and then had to say goodbye once again. Was very said, and I wished that I didn't have to leave. I wish spring break was two weeks long. I wish so many things, but I will soon see Crystine again. I hope this summer works for her coming to visit me, otherwise I will go and watch her walk across the stage in September. I can't wait for the next time I get to hold her hand, and let her fall asleep on my shoulder. So many wonderful feelings. So many. I miss you sweetie, so much.
Take care all, especially you sweetie,
Yours always,
Bill
