Bored in Beijing.

Q_Q So I'm stuck in Beijing (at an airport) now for about another 7h... So I'll rant about some of the bs that has happened thus far.

1) Swedish airport. My mom came with me, we went by taxi. Sobbed and sobbed (mostly just me). I love my mom. Ok so the bad part? My suitcase is overweight. Guess how much 8kg/~17pound overweight costs. Over $500. That's like a fucking plane ticket by itself AND MY LUGGAGE DOES NOT WEIGH AS MUCH AS ME. And even I don't weight that much. Compensation please.
But yeah, my mom paid for it. I feel really bad, our economical situation is shit, always has been (taking a loan to study in Japan).

2) I actually enjoyed staying in the Finnish airport, felt like home. I bought some leipäjuustoa (a delicious kind of... cheese I'm not sure what you'd call it) since I had lotsa euros stashed away that I got from one of my aunties. Called my mom after solving an issue with my phone and cried some more (I am a total wimp when it comes to my mom and people I cherish).

3. Flight to Beijing... 7h, I couldn't sleep. Keep in mind I am running on about 4h or so of sleep. Arrived, checked in, feeling pissed off about not being able to sleep at all, wandering around the pretty airport (some of their shops are built like shrines and Chinese houses with lanterns ffff). Then it was time to plug my computer in, so I pull my adapter out and try to plug the laptop through it... only to realize that the fucking adapter was faulty. I ended up running around the airport looking for a shop selling the right adapters and asking people (who barely knew English Q_Q) about it.. Took quite a while. And yeah here I am. Got a new adapter, I'm flat broke, and the only food I have is a sandwich I got during the flight and another piece of cheese. FML
