I'm off to Japan and HK again for some R&R. This time, I'm going with friends instead of family. I a little pissed about our travel arrangements... suckered into paying more for crappier flights because I couldn't get my way in that aspect of the trip.
I was all for self-plan, but some of the others who haven't been there were apprehensive about an itinerary not built by a travel agent. Oh well, I guess that's the price of travelling with others - you have to compromise a bit. I figure we overpaid by approx $500 CDN - maybe more.
Anyway, I'm leaving tomorrow (Wednesday March 18th) and I'll be back by April Fool's day.
I find that I'm starting to use the word "yikes" a lot. It's taken the place of the "oh my god" exclamation, as well as the "daaaamn" expression.
So, let's say you watch someone get hit by a car, "yiiiikes..."
The TTC's three-tone chime sounds and the double doors slide shut on your bag - "yikes!"
Not sure where I got it from.
Alright kids, I'll see you in two weeks.
are you SURE you don't owe me a pair of shoes yet?
ReplyDeleteIn China you can get a pair for like, a dollar.
ReplyDeletewow shoes cost as much as women over there? perhaps for a toonie tuesday you can get both? Oh wait you arent going to thailand huh? Japan is more expensive i hear...

ReplyDeleteseriously dude, i cannot remember the last time i saw you. also, you are like the only person now with potentially fun gossipy things to talk about. you should have a big gathering for your birthday. old friends vs. new friends hahaha

ReplyDeleteI was hoping Ivan would have forgetten the business with the shoes by now.
In HK, the prostitutes are Korean and Filipino.
