I'm studying physics right now! with karen in her living room lmao. the internet speed is so bad.. but maybe that's because we're both competing for the signal. one minute, i get internet while she doesn't, and vice versa, again and again and again. But who needs the internet, i'm working extra hard on physics afterallll ! I'm so scared for the midterm on friday. Apparently my prof said it is super hard! and its intended to be that way.. since our first midterm had an exceptionally high average (85-90%?) LOL so the purpose of this midterm is to drop our marks. so lame, oh well i must ace this! but to be honest, physics has never been my forte. It wasn't even calculated within my top 6 courses in high school.
Then again, it could be due to the horrible teacher I had. He's okay and nice and all, but he never really answers my questions, in depth. In fact, i feel stupid every time I ask him a question, because he would just be like "its 0.5mv^2 not 0.5mv, you didn't square the speed." WELL in context, that was a bad example.. but OTHER TIMES he shows us mythbusters at least twice a week. I love mythbusters and all but make it MORE related to physics... lol I kinda need you to teach me this stuff, I need to learn this in university. then in every weekly quiz, there would be questions that were never taught. very challenging questions. stupid high school physics. 78.
My sister and parents are in Hong Kong right now. They are living in my grandparents' apartment in Sai Wan. Today I think they're going to visit my grandparents (dad's side) all the way in Kowloon. I wonder if they know how to get there.., I still remember how :D hop onto one of the 10 million taxis and say you want to go to Choi Hung! LMFAO no don't do that, the bill will exceed 300HK$. All you have to do is... Go on 5B double decker bus that's literally outside of the apartment, get off at Central station, take the MTR Tsuen Wan Line to Mong Kok and interchange to the Kwun Tong Line and travel 8-10 stations and you're there! Haha you can see how bored I am at the moment.
When I reminisce about the life in Hong Kong, I make drastic comparisons to my life now. People live a very different lifestyle in Hong Kong. Firstly, literally everyone live in apartments. Since Hong Kong is such a crowded place with a limiting land area, it is not efficient to own a house like you would have in Canada. Secondly, the population is massive. Everywhere you go, you are bombarded with people trying to invade your personal space (jokes). Thirdly, everyday is a party. Nobody stays home, it's all about going out and spending money. Food is amaaaaaaazing. You name it, Hong Kong has it. I sound like I am advertising this city (city? country?) or something LMAO. I don't remember who, but somebody said to me something along the lines of: "if you love Hong Kong so much, go get deported and live there.." or something. I actually will take that as a constructive suggestion :) When I'm done school, I'm LIVING THERE YO! 
I've lived in Hong Kong ever since I was one or two months old. I was born in Canada but immigrated over like almost immediately. I attended daycare in Lok Fu and made a cool friend. I wonder if it's creepy that I still remember his name. Afterall, it has been 16 years? Haha I moved back to Markham, Ontario at 5 years of age and attended kindergarten in Highgate Public School. For 9 years, from kindergarten to grade 8, I finally graduated elementary school. I've made many everlasting bonds in that building that are still very much alive today. But after grad, I moved away from the area and did not attend Milliken Mills High School, but rather, the much more "prestigious" Unionville High School. Four years swooped by quite fast, and now I am a university student at McMaster. Life is changing constantly. In 1 or 5 or 10 years, the house I live in, the people I see everyday, the places I travel to everyday, will all be different. So if you love your life, cherish it indefinitely. If you hate your life, look ahead and climb out of your hole with your own two hands.
My future is still a mystery, and it will always be. I will never know where I will go or what I will be doing, until that time comes. Even then, there are still a vast amount of experiences to be revealed and explored. Allow time to write the pathway of life.
