8:53 am Beijing International Airport.
So, here I am, sitting at the waiting room at Beijing International Airport.
Boarding will be started in 20 mins. Thinking about myself, I didn't have any trip
alone for a while. Morning time, I talked with Mom. I told her somehow I want to
have a trip by myself in South Africa, Maybe after the Spring Festival, I will give
myself a break. I will go back Vancouver to meet up some old friends and travel
somewhere new.
To get out the homeland, it doesn't really matter where I go, what I gonna do.
The point is I am on the road.
A book, my laptop, music with a positive spirit toward the unknown.
I turned my cell phone off.
Although i will open it up after landing, I still could have 3 hours alone.
Sometime, I am despaired to have a moment alone.
When I am alone, I could write down what I feel.
I could take photos about things that I like.
I could think about issues which normally I don't bother to think.
Even for the missing, it becomes prettier when you put the distance in between.
Dongdong picked me up at Shenzhen airport. We headed directly to the boarder.
One hour after landing, I was in the KCR train, on the way to Kewloon.
To avoid the crowd, I bought myself a first class train ticket. It's comfortable.
The following few hours, I was shopping in Festival Walk, a mall right beside the train station.
I bought books, cosmetics stuff for friends.
No idea why I didn't take any photos. Taking the train back to ShenZhen around 6pm,
late dinner with Dongdong and driving around the city to see the city.
The city owns too many memories and all I could think about was her.
Not the one from the past, but the one in Beijing.
