Six Feet Under The Stars
Travel log
Friday, July 20th + Saturday, July 21st + Sunday, July 22nd (a lil past midnight)
*keep in mind that Japan is 13 hours in advance & Singapore is 12
Montreal, QC
I just had the freak out of my life. I'm dead tired (because I slept less than 3 hours) so I closed my eyes while waiting at our gate for the Toronto flight & when I opened them, I was staring at the back of Felipe's head. Okay, so it wasn't him, but the resemblance from the back was so scary. I shat bricks. I was half asleep so it just shocked me more okayyy.
Moka Cookie Crumble frappucino from Starbucks is incredible. It helped me wake up a bit.
- 1h30mins flight to Toronto-
I'm such a loser, I made a take off playlist and took selfies in the plane. She Takes Me High by WTK was magical especially when we passed through the clouds... Followed by Six Feet Under The Stars. I'm just sitting here staring at the map on the screen eating pretzels and sipping Sprite thinking about how I really wanna go to Baltimore (home of all time low, Thames street & south broadway) one day... No I am not too obsessed with ATL. Shut up. Hahaha.
Toronto, ON
This guy at Toronto Pearson sounded exactly like the Asian dude from The Hangover. I was dying.
-12h30mins flight to Tokyo-
Feels like I'm a minority on this flight, everyone's Japanese!!! Even the announcements are in Japanese first! 21 Jump Street. So fucking funny oh my god. I was dying in the plane. "But you brought us taco bell man." HAHAHA. And his voice cracks while saying it. Omg, replayed that part 6 times!!!! Super courteous Asian dude my age let me go to the bathroom first even if we got there at the same time, very nice of him. He was cute. 500 Days Of Summer<3... I find I'm like the main character :p a bit too much.. High School Musical. In a plane. How cool am I. Don't act like you don't know the words to the songs hahaha. Sang along the whole time..... Fell asleep for 30mins at the end of HSM & now I can't sleep anymore:( AND I keep farting:( lololol sad times. The airplane food isn't agreeing with me maybe? The Fault In Our Stars by John Green is fucking amazing so far. Quotes I like and felt like writing down: "Pain demands to be felt." "Sometimes people don't understand the promises they're making when they make them." "The weird thing about houses is that they almost always look like nothing is happening inside of them, even though they contain most of our lives. I wondered if that was sort of the point of architecture." I desperately wish for a plot twist like Augustus Waters ( boy in the book) in my life.... But I guess it'd only be fair if I were dying from terminal cancer.. Dammit! "Oh, I wouldn't mind, Hazel Grace. It would be a privilege to have my heart broken by you." crying omfg.
Tokyo, Japan
Um. Well, the flight here was really fun & passed by pretty fast! About 12 & a half hours down, about 6 & a half to go.. I think this flight to Sing is going to be a lot harder for me. I'm running on 3 hours of sleep & I've been up for almost 18hours now or something... Ahhhh. Going insane because it's afternoon here now. Anyway, I took a piss in Japan. Oh yes. I also bought a Japanese lemon drink & Japanese Hershey's. The chocolate is spicy.... Something is so wrong here. They've heated this airport and I am currently dying omg whyyyy. It's fucking hot. I'm gonna sleep at the gate for a bit, my head kills. Everyone's Asian, that's when you know you're not in Canada anymore. Ahajsisnd my head.
-6h30mins flight to Singapore-
Boarded. This plane is a lot smaller, less leg room... That's just great ain't it? When I wanna sleep, suddenly the plane is so uncomfortable. Great. I read a bit. Couldnt stop moving to try to get comfortable, it was ridiculous. Finally passed out for a few hours with the help of my blanket, blindfold, ear plugs & head wrap around thing. Woke up. Accidentally made the decision to take meal A which is a Japanese meal... Little did we know that meal B was a hamburger! Wtf, it had some Japanese name on the menu & the jap one said shrimp with rice... It was horrible okay. The shrimp had EYES , their was some sort of fish egg in my plate and the noodles were so bad. I feel sick with it in front of me. Ugh , only thing that was good was the miso soup. That, tasted like back at home! Anyway, I couldn't stop falling in and out of sleep and I swear, when you go on long plane rides, the amount of times I have to go take a piss is embarrassing! I mean, I don't know what it is, but the plane makes me pee more haha. I slept through the landing, I was out cold. My mom had to shake me awake!
Singapore, Singapore
Dead. Tired. Holy shit, I have never felt this tired in my whole entire life. Good thing it's midnight here now though, or else I'd have very very bad jetlag. Singapore customs go really fast, they're really organized so we were outta there really quick! I like it here already, I don't know. My aunt & Carl came to pick us up & we drove to their condo. We got to drive through the heart of Singapore, there's this giant ferris wheel in the middle of the city, the biggest I've ever seen & it was all lit up. So pretty. It was like I was high because I was so tired, everything was like whoaaa. The streets are so flawless, no pot holes & it's so clean here, no litter on the ground AT ALL. It's extremely illegal to litter. I find that great! Distribution of gum is also illegal here, but you're aloud to possess and have for personal use as long as you dispose of it properly! They act as if it's a drug here, frowned upon. Hahaha, love how different it is here, so much nicer than Montreal just because it's so pretty to look at no matter where you are<3 I got introduced to my room, which I adore , BY TH E WAY. It's my own and it's small and cozy and I have a nice sofa bed that's the comfiest sofa bed ever. I have access to the balcony from my room as well! And nobody can tell if I go out on it in the middle of the night, it makes no noise at all (so no one will hear me go out) and it's such a nice view. I took a shower and it was one of those rain showers, so awesome. I read The Fault In Our Stars & passed out a few chapters before the end... I could get used to this :)
Love always,
Eka
