I love the ocean... everything about it seems to bring out the best in me. It doesn't help that I surf, and it is kinda hard to practice that in Colorado.

It isn't possible for me to put in words how much I miss the waterfront. The boardwalk, the wildlife... hell, I can even tolerate most people out there.

What I am trying to say is, I miss the ocean. It is important to me in life, and not having something like that with you truly sucks.

So today was a pretty boring day, I didn't wake up until really late and so we went to get brunch, but our aunt called us and so we waited. Those "15 minutes" turned into an hour. At that time once we went to go get brunch, Maxim Palace in Kwai Fong was packed. So we went down a floor to get some food real quick at Shanghai something. I forget the name because the food sucked. It wasn't even that great and in the end they charged a lot, a lot for Hong Kong standards. After that we all went our seperate ways since we couldn't decide on something. Me and my dad went to Tsim Sha Tsui, he ended up getting an upset stomach from the Shanghai place and so we went home. Which is why I'm writing the blog. The story of this photo is we were ...

So today it was quite a boring day again. I woke up late, about 12 and so we didn't really have a lot of plans either. We ended up going to do some banking business at HSBC and we met up with my father's old friend/co-worker that was (and still is) a hairdresser. We ended going to Little Fat Sheep/Lamb or Xiao Fei Yang in Chinese. The brunch there was pretty good, better than the US at least. IMO. (The one we went to was in Mong Kok) we later went back to my uncle's (I'll refer my dad's friend as Uncle as I would in Chinese) salon and waited for his wife, and from there ...

Day 10




Sorry that I'm late on the entry. But today I was basically just recovering. I got bit by some mosquitoes on Day 9 and those things did a lot more damage than I thought. I got about 5 bites, but they swelled up pretty bad. I ended going to where my aunt works, it's a clinic and that was just to get ointment. It ended up becoming something worse, and they gave me some shots of some sort of pain-killer/numbing medicine. I don't really know what it was but I was tired and ended just going home and sleeping as that's why I assume it was some kind of pain-killer. It ended working (after all they gave me 3 sets of different pills). Still the bites haven't healed.

Dear friend,

The U.S. House of Representatives is currently considering H.R. 1981, a bill that would order all of our online service providers to keep new logs about our online activities, logs to help the government identify the web sites we visit and the content we post online. This sweeping new "mandatory data retention" proposal treats every Internet user like a potential criminal and represents a clear and present danger to the online free speech and privacy rights of millions of innocent Americans.

Please, contact your Representative today and ask them to oppose this dangerous bill: https://secure.eff.org/site/Advocacy...rAction&id=497
