This is what i wrote in a nice pub where I had a cup of apple cider and few pieces of spiced peanut. ''I am now in the airport lounge beyond the immigration clearance. This is basically a citizen's lounge. i call it citizen's just because there are somewhere that i can't really go in without paying. It's a basic free lounge. Sitting at the co-called Cafe Deco pub and restaurant, which has a Chinese name equivalent to ''Victoria's view'', I am only able to overlook the people milling around downstairs at the airport shopping floor. It's raining outside anyway, while the fireworks are flashing off the sanpan tied to the rusted docks in the real Victoria Harbour. Here we got an South East Asian-looking lady singing R & B in front of me. Nobody is actually looking at her, but she's putting all kinds of emotions on her face to make sure it looks like she's interacting with the audience. She seems to be enjoying herself though as she would talk to her guitarists before beginning another song. Professional. HK airport now gets a shopping floor and a food court floor. As the SCMP puts it the other day, it's no longer a cold place. They got restaurants, fastfood shops and even pubs where you can watch football. They even got the American Popeye's and Burger King right next to the Japanese Ajisen Ramen. International airport. Walking towards to the waiting hall after finishing a meal can really make you feel the closeness and convenience of this close-to-perfect design. you feel like ''it's right there!'' and you would mumble out the ''wow'' feelings with some onion smells from the ramen you just ate. You can't even eat after you cross the Octopus machine at MTR stations can you? it's just so close here. The singer is now talking to some American guys as one table of people took off without even a turn of a head. ''I have never been there'' she said to the guy. '' I won a free trip there'' he said. ''oh you did,'' she replied. Non-sense :D so stupid conversation :D maybe it's called chitchat. i spent some three hundred dollars in two hours. i bought one book, ate and now having a drink at this nice pub. Spending money with your credit is just one way to fill the emptiness. well. problem lingers. but i'm sure i'll feel completely different two hours later, as i'll see my lovely cousins. I hope.'' And finally i did relax, after playing basketball and chatting til dawn with my cousin.
