One More Day

One day till we go home! One day till we go home!
One day till we go home! I'm so excited! *this is my
victorious going home song* *picture me singing and
dancing to it if you want a good laugh* Okay, so I am
like, so totally ready to be on that plane home.
Don't think I'm not enjoying myself, though. It's
been good, but I want to go. The only thing I'm going
to hate is leaving everyone I've met here. Yesterday,
I think I've had the most fun night ever. What did we
do? We took an evening river cruise on, what else
but, the river. If you haven't heard of or seen the
river of Guangzhou at night, it's basically
Chinese-Vegas. Almost, like, every building on
Shamien Island has multicolored lights all over the
building at night. Some are like TV screens ad play
movies, and some are like rope lights. So, we took
the cruise and had a disgusting buffet dinner, which I
completely don't reccomend, but the lights made it
totally worth it. It was also the day of the Moon
Festival, so they served moon cakes. Which, like the
buffet, they were not at their best. Despite what
people said, Collin got me to try a piece of one
anyway. It was disgusting. I can't describe it, it
was like a jellied peanut flavor, yet it was fluffy
like a cake. So, yeah. That was my cruise. So
beautiful! Today, we have the red couch photo, and
then we attend our last group dinner. Speaking of
groups, yesterday, we toured a park with the other
groups and guides from great wall which has made me SO
thankful that we have Veronica (cause I can't
understand 2/3 of what the others say IN ENGLISH!),
and I love our small group. The others are to loud.
To get back on track, tomorrow we wake up, and we take
the evening train into Hong Kong. We sleep over in
Hong Kong, and then we fly to America that morning. I
believe my plane gets in at seven-thirty. PM. I
can't wait to get home and see my friends again! But,
this IS the experience of a lifetime, and I'm totally
happy to be a part of it. A quick update: I haven't
wrote anything in my journal. It's been all blog, all
the way! When I get home, I'll write what stores and
restaurants are good, what aren't. What we should've
brought. Advice. Blah-yada-blah-yada. Hopefully
I'll get an update in tomorrow morning, but if not
it'll nost likely be at home. Home is where the heart
lies. Never forget that. If I ever wished I was away
from home, forget it. I actually miss my brother and
sister! Anyway, I've gotta go, cause it's almost time
for the red couch photo.
