the downside of a 15 hour difference… nobody is online for me to bug. I’ve still got almost 3 hours to kill. damnit, people, don’t make me go spend money on shit I don’t need! (I plan on doing that on the way home anyway.) Oh, and in other news, “The Time Travellers Wife” is [...]

Hell, forget the kiosks, there’s free wifi! Also, I have a gate now. Yay! I love this airport. Hong Kong rocks.
