Even More

1 - Hey local HK kids, shut up in lecture. No one cares what you're doing three weekends from now, let the damn professor talk. It's like constant yak yak yak yak yak. All the while, all the exchange kids look horrified "OMG they're talking! That never happens in my homeland!" Thats how I look anyways...

2 - Hey Hong Kong, it's not the 1950's. Guy and girls, especially around this age are interested in each other for more than charming personalities and witty jokes, it's ok! Cutting off visiting hours at 9 pm (12 is the latest I've seen) grates on my American sense of personal freedom. I demand things my way! Without having to go to McDonald's! Except even there I have problems because I don't speak Cantonese!

Anyone else notice that my formula is statement-judgement-self deprecating remark so I don't seem like a jerk?

HAHAHA. Word. The local students are really rowdy in my lectures too. I roll my eyes at them a lot, but I reckon they don't notice it.

Also, regarding the hostel regulations -- seriously. I've already been kicked out of my original hostel. I moved into my new room yesterday, only after a week of trying to appeal their decision of refusing me housing entirely. It was absolutely ridiculous how seriously they took it.
