Shanghai - Boston

i woke up at 6am this morning and found my arizona beer was kicked off by one of my pillows which i might have thrown unto the floor. i hesitated for seconds as i had no such vigor to again clean the floor drenched in beer, after all it had been all set last night. and i had been in sleep for only one hour in the past two days from shanghai to boston.

it was on the morning of aug 5 when the family drove me to shanghai for the flight to boston. we arrived half an hour ahead of the due arrival time. then i was stuck in newark for the unexpected storm. we should have been on board no late than 8pm, but it turned out the flight departed at 2am. and that was not the end. something worse happened and the jet was kicked by the strongest turbulence i had ever experienced. i heard a woman screaming. fortunately it was only one-hour ride. and we were picked up around 4am. as i stayed in a friend's room, i looked out of the window to appreciate the sunrise of boston. sadly i had no admiration or excitement for that as an exhausted time machine.

but there were interesting moments when you think about passengers sitting together on the same flight. the passenger seated near the walk was always paying attention to his neighbor seated in the middle. and his neighbor would be staring from time to time at the stranger sitting by the window. and the innermost guy would definitely be looking out and sinked in sky and cloud-related specialities.
