this is no time to be a banana -_-"
in two weeks time, i am going to be staying with my aunties in kowloon (九龍) hong kong, WITHOUT EITHER OF MY PARENTS OR COUSINS.
i am so, so scared.
how am i going to talk to them without a translator readily on hand?! conversation will revolve around food, the weather, and how funny i look trying to play charades and pictionary so they get some vague idea of what i want to say.
laughs will be had at my expense.. being a banana ABC, i have the most horrendous accent when i try to speak cantonese. or any asian language aside from japanese. -_-"
kabbens is in hong kong right now, preparing for her two week european jaunt. (how i envy those who can take a long holiday... and in prague and vienna, no less!) one wonders what one is going to do without one's best friend for two weeks.
become a hermit and stay in playing computer games, i suppose ^-^ there's a new instalment for NeverwinterNights 2 coming out on Friday.. geeky anticipation abounds.
i had a really weird dream last night, in which i was wandering around a rural General Store, looking at a shelf with cartons of eggs, one of which was advertising "chicken milk! the new way to start your morning - nutritious and delicious!" or something to that effect.
i must have spent at least fifteen dream-minutes standing there, staring at the shelf, trying to get my head around the idea of what chicken milk would be (milk from a chicken? or chicken-flavoured milk?) and if was milk from a chicken, how the hell it was possible..
eventually i abandoned my poultry/dairy musings and trotted off to go get ready for a day at the races, which for some reason involved sneaking into a friend's weatherboard beach shack, and being coerced by said friend into trying on one of her black flamenco dresses which mysteriously turned pastel green and peasantly when it got stuck on my head.
let me tell you - pastel green grannie wallpaper as a dress? definitely not smexy!

I hope NWN2 is better than NWN - people built NWN up for us so much that we bought it before we'd finished other games.
But we found NWN lame and so moved onto Dungeon Siege II and now Titan Quest which are fairly cool.
