.... the flight here was interesting. All i have to say is i used to think the flight to Seoul was long. Now I think its as short as flying to KL... KNN! So bloody far lah SF! Had SO many Indians on the flight i thought i was going to Bombay or something. Played
what colour what colour? on board by myself... pink blue green red... one guy even tried (and almost succeeded) putting the headphones OVER his turban hahahah was quite a funny sight. Figured laughin loudly to myself was... not a good thing.
Ok, the americans i met were nice. The waitresses were polite and my room service girl was super helpful. They give you one HUGE pot of coffee for breakie so you don't have to keep asking (although it's probably more because they don't wanna keep comin back). The room service girl actually called to find out if i finally figured out how to use the darn coffee pot and offered instructions when i said i didn't. The bouncer at the bar checked my ID. Then he took a photo of my quirky t shirt for his website. Beer is CHEAP. What more can i ask for?
Presentation went well... i think i was too cheem for most of them. One senior lady asked me why i used so many jargons and i said i'm a sociologist and she went AH! now i see... hahahhaha. Sometimes i wish singapore sociology would just give up trying to sound cheem and actually contribute to knowledge more without the baggage shit...
heh well at least it was an interesting presentation although i was quite intimidated by this indian lady who came just to listent to my presentation. Eeks! She gave me good comments lah.
Met up with Eujin and his malaysian friends here who were damn swell. But alas had to bid adieu to them all tonight... hopefully can see them again this thanksgiving thursday. Otherwise, i'm totally on my own now. we'll see how that goes. I travel badly without company.
