Keep on

The marathon of sensations kept on for the last two days. So many things that I have to sit down for a while to organise them inside my brain, and then write. Now, I'm off to China. To the real one. I will be crossing the border in two hours. On foot. Like I did from the US to Mexico.

Hong Kong, day 1

It's been one day in Hong Kong, and all I can say is I'm confused. Sizes, densities, faces, tastes, smells, paces... everything so different and yet so familiar at the same time. I'm too constrained by the jet lag. I need more time to get some conclusions about the overload of sensations and information I am getting.

Falling asleep and the meaning of life

I am falling asleep, but i need to keep myself awake, so that i'll be really sleepy tomorrow, and when i get on the plane to china late at night, i'll finally fall asleep like a baby.
That reminds me of my childhood, when my cousin and I, before our yearly trip to the Alps, tried to keep ourselves awake so that we would be able to sleep on the car the day after, and therefore avoid the boredom of a seven hour car trip. Of course, we kept ourselves awake, but didn't manage to sleep a minute on the car the day after.
I guess I didn't learn anything from my childhood.

China

That's where I am heading off tomorrow. For the next three weeks, I'll be in China.
For the next three weeks, the fruitman chronicles will become the fluitman clonicles.

Reading and sleeping late

I've been reading a lot lately to prepare for something BIG. Actually, I'm just trying to figure out what I am going to write for my thesis, how can I connect it with what i did, how can i connect it with the course i want to teach, and how can i, after all, connect it with a decent life. Man, i go to sleep.
