Hong Kong

Hello, my name is ThucDan Huynh, I am 11 years old and my birthday was a month ago.  so I’m actually 12.  Someone said that I have to write about our trip to Vietnam.  But I am rebellious, so I will write about Hong Kong, so I will give you some random words.  Papaya(say it in a deep manly voice) pineapple(that’s pronounced pin aple) cookies, cheese, ramen, noodles in general, and tea.  Notice that all the words are edible, saying that I am a lover of food.

Now is the part where I actually talk about Hong Kong.  To start off, the plane ride was uncomfortable but kind of yummy.  There was ice cream and pasta so I guess it was actually super delish.  when we got off the plane we realized that the Hong Kong airport is the biggest airport in the world.  So we got lost a couple of times and it takes so long to find you way out.  Then, when we finally got to the ticket counter, we saw Cau Ngan. 

After we got our tickets, we went to the bathroom to brush our teeth because we haven’t brushed our teeth in a long time.  Then, after we did THAT we went to go buy food, but the food was too expensive.  So we just starved to death cause we were cheapos and would rather die than lose money.  That’s when God came to us a revived us.  But we didn’t know it happened so we just carried on to our gate(I can assure you that the gate was very far away)  BUT WHEN IS LIFE JUST AS SIMPLE AS THAT?  My family didn’t make it on the plane, so we had to sleep there.  So I guess you can say that I was stranded in Hong Kong  When we woke up got to the ticket counter, they told us to wait until we hear our name, because that meant that they found seats for us, while we waited, we decided to be smart and not cheapos.  So we bought Starbucks and a muffin to survive.  Then, we charged our stuff until they called us.  That’s when we went to a different gate and got on the plane to Vietnam.

Now let me tell you about the trip back.  On the plane the food was disgusting and I didn’t like it to say in the least.  And when we got off the plane.  It was just h.e. double hockey stick from there.  first, we had no idea where to go, after we waited for 20 minutes at the ticket counter, they decided to hate us and said that we couldn’t get stand by tickets there.  So we went to terminal 3 and looked around for an hour before we decided to ask somone (this whole time, I was running around because I thought we would be late) the lady said that the American airline ticket counter was in terminal 2.  So we retraced our steps until we got to terminal 2, section E.  THEN we couldn’t find American Airlines ANYWHERE.  So we asked another lady and she said terminal 3 section E.  So I took another look and realized I had passed American airlines half a million times, it was just that the letters were super small.  So while we were in line, I was freaking out because I thought we hasd missed our flight.  AND THEN MY MUM DECIDES TO TELL ME THAT OUR FIGHT WONT BE FLYING FOR 4 HOURS.  So then I just relaxed, the lady said come back in 1:30 hours.  That meant we could eat lunch.  We, (again) decided to not be cheapos and got some wonton soup and 3 cakes, and for the record, they were all delightful.  Then we came back to the ticket counter and they gave us our tickets and we check in our luggage.  Then we had to go through security.  That’s when we finally got on the plane and home.

Ok, so we didn’t exactly go home, we just went to the Dallas airport.  And this is where the REAL h.e. double hockey stick begins.  Once we got there, almost every flight to Arizona was booked full, which really sucked for us because that meant we had to spend the night.  After spending the night, things still didn’t work for us.  That is when we had this brilliant idea to dive for 16 hours to Arizona with a rented car.  So yeah, we did that.  But we were all just so sleepy and drowsy that we pulled over to take a nap, 30 minutes after we woke up and started driving again, we took another nap.  Right before we got to El Paso it started raining, and then the rain turned into snow!  It was cold and none of us has sleeves.  After a while, we were completely out of gas, like, it was completely empty!  So we drove for a few more miles and we found a gas station and thanked god.  I feel asleep for the rest of the trip until we got to the hotel.  When I looked out the window, there was a good level of snow outside.  The car was just completely covered in snow and my hair have white sprinkles in it.  So we went and ate breakfast.  After that, we got on the road and that was also h.e. double hockey stick.  We were driving at 5 mph because the road was iced clean and there was major traffic.  A couple dozen cars and trucks fell down the highway too.  It was a good 3 hours before we were driving at 80 mph again.  Before I knew it, we stopped to eat at a Vietnamese restaurant in Tucson.  I then fell asleep again and this time, when I woke up, we were in Pheonix Arizona and my dad was about to pick me up.  It took us a while to find my dad and when I did, the only thing anyone could hear for miles was ThucQuyens scream.  And just for the record, this post is 1005 words long.
