Our worst fears are confirmed in these harsh times of privation and desperation. Although we have pulled through so far, it is my only remaining conclusion to say that we will not be so fortunate this time. There is no way out, and we may as well concede now any effort to repel the evil forces that assail us ever so tenaciously, and relinquish all hopes and dreams for a brighter future. Because, quite frankly, they are nothing more than delusional and a small step short of insanity. Let us just go forth now, and not prosper, but perish. Let us not succeed, but abort, default, abandon, disappoint, neglect, flounder, and die nothing more than the billions of insignificant and impertinent molecules that we once were.
The end has begun, and I dare say it is less than favorable.

HAHAHA! Now that is an impertinent and grossly false pile of regurgitated rhinoceros dung, if I've ever seen one! I was totally kidding! I apologize for any tears or fright that may have caused, but I believe that sometimes the best way to fully understand something is to see its antithesis. In this case, the above garbage would be the antithesis to the way I feel right now!
I just got into Hong Kong last night, around 6PM and got to meet my new roommate, who seems like a great guy and I think we have some fun times ahead of us. He, my other roommate (whom I was greatly excited to see again), and myself shared a few drinks and made some conversation, then we watched The Hangover (which was pretty funny) in ghetto chinese bootleg quality, which tired me out quite a bit. So, I fell asleep around 11PM, and woke up bright and early at 8:30 this morning, WITH NO JETLAG :). I couldn't have asked for a better start.
Today I'll be running around taking care of all my arrival duties and getting everything set up, but hopefully in the midst of the upcoming begging-of-semester-chaos I'll be able to stay a heck of a lot more faithful in making my blog posts this year.
So we see, it has indeed begun. But the only end this marks is the end of an amazing summer, and its true purpose is to mark an epoch of even more exciting times here at HKU.
Anyway, I apologize for making this post so melodramatic, but I felt it was the best way to convey how ecstatic I am right now. I hope you will enjoy reading about my experiences (or at least find them amusing), and I look forward to another great year in Hong Kong.
Best Regards,
Kyle
