Zombie!

Mood:Tired Health:Good Weather:Raining

Traveling has never been so time wasting before... It was a flight on bad time and in order to reach Cardiff in the morning when the hostel reception is opened, I got to wait 12 hours for the coach. Even the staff who was assisting in the coach lounge, got sore- eyed seeing me there for hours...

I have enough of sitting! (13 hours of flight and while waiting for my coach!) I decided to lie down to read my notes when the man came up to me.

"How can I help you?" He wasn't that friendly at all as if I was a illegal immigrant.

"I am waiting for my coach tomorrow morning 7am+ to Cardiff."

He nodded without looking at me and walked away. I was thinking "Uncle, my backside hurts by sitting the whole day, can't you just let me lie down and rest awhile? Don't worry, I am not staying up here!"

It was freaking cold too. The chilly wind blown at me from the four doors in each corner.

He continued to monitor me until the next morning at 5am. Yes! 2 more hours to go!! I was so exhausted, hungry and cold. I didn't sleep very much during the journey and I haven't eaten or drink for the past 15 hours!

The opening of 'Caffe Nero' at the lounge was welcoming. I had a cup of hot tea and a carrot + raisins cake. The hot tea didn't warm me up as I have hoped :(

I wished the time flies faster in such a situation. I can't wait to check in and have a good rest!
