Flying to NYC

Thought

Hi, I’m now on the plane to New York City, a business trip to there to attend the Linux World Expo. I’ll stay in NYC for a week. It’s my first time to fly a long distance. over 18 hrs journary, change plane in Tokyo. I left Tokyo at around 14 (HKT) and will arrive NYC at around 1 (HKT), which is 13 US Time. Oh, It’s sound like being Kua-fu [夸父], a person who chase the sun in the chinese legend.

Sure, I’m really excited coz it’s also my first time to states, first time to left Asia. Wow! But coz of the 911, there is many bad thing flash in my mind. Last month (Dec of 2001), I got a dream about death. It’s not horrible and no pain. (Oh, have you ever pain while dreaming) I just met a guy who ask me whether I need to leave some words to others. It made me puzzle and stop for a few secounds. While I got the meaning and would like to say yes, he said it’s too late. Interesting that I’m not scare or panic, then said it is ok. (Oh, my typical answer to most things. But I really can’t imagine that I’ll said while I died) The latest thing I check before I left is that my family got enough money to pay for the apartment. Oh, It’s really tell me that I’m worry much about the apartment although it doesn’t spent me so much every month.

Most books tell that dream about death mean good thing, so I didn’t care too much but only joke with my sister. But sure, the apartment is one of the things that I really care about. OK, don’t worry!! my friend! You should know that I’m not a pesimist. But I suppose I should prepare every thing.

Hi Chen, You are not only thoughtful but also funny !! hahahhaah wow~~18 hours journey and it’s the first time you left Asia, it must be cool, isn’t it ??!! The first time I left Hong Kong and went on my so-called-long journey was on the way to Beijing. To me, it’s nothing special, but to my parents, they thought I just taking the adventures. See, this is Chinese. hahaha……lol I have a friend working at a computer company in Tokyo, he has to flight all the time, I just can’t understand why he has to do that. Chen, is it a “must” for you guys (IT man) to flight every where all the time?? To me, it’s great, heheheheh, but I guess it’s very tiring, right?? Chen, I learn that your apartment drives you mad and maybe you are under great pressure, but anyway try to be relexed and try to take it easy,ok?! Just try.ok? Take good care of yourself. Hi
