As many of you might already have known, I'm currently stuck in North America for one more day, and it really feels like one of the longest days in my life. Really, it is the result of travel fatigue coupled with a 16 hours time difference with Singapore. Well well.. it was all a mad rush this morning, and we had to clear Canada and US customs twice within half an hour, and were just being pushed around from airline agent to agent who refused to render proper assistance in re-booking our flights back home.
Still, being stranded in Portland for an additional night has allowed me to keep up with all my blogposts, although I'm really quite sick (literally fever and flu) and drained out. We're now waiting for our next flight which is in 18 hours' time, without anything to shower nor to brush our teeth (the customs officer threw the remaining 5g of my toothpaste away) and we'll probably end up in Singapore all smelly and stinky. Haha. :(
So well, just for an update, I'll be touching down in Changi on Thursday, 8 January, at 12.35am instead - effectively 1 whole day later than the previous scheduled itinerary. Undeniably I'm still quite upset over missing out on the LTM workshop and having my plans disrupted for my first 2 days in Singapore, but at least our delay ain't that bad and we don't have to spend that much time stuck in this other part of the world. Heh.. see you all soon.
Life is a journey that's homeward-bounddddddd.
