Letter


Dear Shake Shack,

You are effing delicious.  I'm sorry I ever had doubts.  Thank you for being my neighbour.

Nom nom nom,
Klong

Quote of the Day

Rob: "I did what your dad told me and wrote my business school application essay about babysitting Mongolian babies in Beijing."

Ouch

You know you must be in bad shape when your massage therapist first makes you cry, then says she wishes she had another 3 hours to torture you work on your shoulder.

Quote of the Day

"When you graduate, will you be the youngest lawyer ever?"

No, despite thoughts to the contrary, I am not in fact a teenager.

Endless Opportunities

Apparently I speak Chinese in my sleep. I suppose even non-waking moments are excellent opportunities to practice. Wish I knew whether my subconscious speaks better than I do.

Really?

I will vote for anyone who makes travelling to the US from abroad less obnoxious.

a) I don't believe the US government has "randomly selected" me for screening when it happens every time.  And confiscating my wonton soup that I bought at the airport is absurd.

b) I am not half Korean, my blonde hair and blue eyes should give that away.  The alternate question - "why were you born in Korea" - is no less annoying to answer.

c) If you are going to make me collect my bag and recheck it myself between flights, get it off the plane in some time period that is within an hour.

d) My laptop is, in fact, a laptop and not an iPad.  Seriously?

e) It's absurd to not have a single Mandarin-speaking flight attendant on flights from Hong Kong.  You're lucky I translated for you, Cathay Pacific.

Hmmmppffffffff.  I'm sure I will be happy to be back once I have slept, but right now I kind of just want to go back to Asia.
