Diary of an OB - LT

You know it's funny.

I have a mental to-do list. And on this mental to-do list is to get a diary/day planner type book to have a physical copy of my daily "to-do" list.

But I've put that off for some time now.

Anyway, I think I'll actively go looking for one now that I mentioned it.

Just as an epic aside, throughout my time here being the OB, the most awkward place ever EVER in ANY office has to be the bathroom. Yes, I would have preferred it if there were individual cubicles for bathrooms. So weird when you see someone you semi-know in there doing whichever thing it is they are doing. OK you get the picture. It just needed to get out there in the open so that you may prepare yourself for the same embarassment when the time comes.

So the single most vital thing on my OB list right now is to secure my damn flight back to Sydney. I'm currently waitlisted but I'd wish they would call me back right now and be like "o hey you're that OB eh? Sorry for the delay, sincerest apologies, I didn't realise it was THE OB. Here we'll put you on the flight, it's overbooked but that's cool, it might mean you'll get an upgrade into the uncomfortable business class."

Then I will reply with "thank you" and leave HK.

It's not that I'm hating my time here, but I've seriously been losing sleep thinking so much about the future that I think I need to return home to escape some of the thinking. I live in a think box of sorts.

As of late, I have gotten OB cravings where I just want to get every snack that pops into my head and just eat it. I've so far completed a few missions of that. It's bad, I know, but the feeling of conquest afterwards will be rewarding. Doubly rewarding.

Ok, I don't think the office realised its Winter, nor did they realise that air conditioners have reverse cycle and can be warming. But you know, being OB and all, I have like close to no voice in this office so I'll just quietly freeze to death now.

Edit: Another reason why I need to leave HK is because I am beginning to notice my English skills deteriorate into nothingness.
