tadaa... i'm finally up and going again.. living in 2 阿姨 's hse, its pretty comfy and the internet is running well xD. haven't been in that situation for a long while huh. rest assured that i'll keep writing smt from now on so long as i still have my hands on the internet xD
The plane trip took 13 hrs +50 minutes, with 3 hours transfer time. so its around 17 hours on the move. I sat beside a guy with the name of "golden armour" .. okay that's kinda like the direct translation from chinese but he's a decent guy. graduating from one of the top high schs in beijing, he does nothing but study.. oh well not exactly nothing. he said he loved geography and both of his parents worked in a museum.. he does not listen to music, does not hang out, does not play the computer, does not use the instant messenger system.. and he's fatter than me.
we've a good chat on the plane and thats about it. he left me a email which i probably will never bother to be the one who contact him? anyway...
D.C. 's airport is much below expectation. probably because of its old age. I've got the shock of my life when i stepped out of the airplane... its like... " where the hell are the chinese people!? " the fact is, i got used to seeing yellow skin all around me.. now there's only black and white... came across a racist cop who tried to boss the international students around.. "now stand behind the yellow line, this is not china anymore, you're in the US. " he shouted at some random person who just happened to be a little lost and is well behind the line.. i dont know, that guy just got transfered from prison police into the airport police or something? besides being unable to find my way to the right gate easily and the rude policeman, there's not much impression of that airport.
the transfer flight was more memorable. its the smallest plane that i ever boarded... 3 seats per roll and i can easily see the cabin from my seat.. its stability was above my expectation. i was ready to suffer as bad memories in taking small planes overwhelmed me. but when we took off. i just spent my time admiring the night view of the city below. small houses were evenly spread out in the field.. road lights and the lights from houses caused enough light pollution for it to be beautiful.
took a walk out yesterday.. spotted 3 wild dears and a wild rabbit... fire flies under the tree that flies up like some fireworks in blue... then faded away in the darkness.. really cool
