Last day before departure

Yes! Today is the last day before I am moving back to my own country, Hong Kong. It's funny how I am going to miss the U.S, despite the fact that I have been looking forward to this day since early this year. Although I was rarely in CT for the past few years, I think I am going to miss Ct more than Allegheny. For one thing, I am going to miss my parent since I am leaving them again for new adventures. Second, I am going to miss my huge room and electronics that do not accept 240V current (FYI: U.S uses AC 110V and Hong Kong (like many countries) uses AC 240V). I am going to miss books that are too heavy to come with me (AKA: all my chemistry textbooks, history books, and math books, etc..) I am going to miss measuring units according to the American standard. It's going to be hell for me to talk about temperture in unit C and does not really know what that mean until I convert it back to unit F. Now imagine describing your height or weight in cm or kg. Based on previous experiences, people are going to ask my height and expect me to tell them in cm unit. In fact, I am going to miss fresh air and drive in streets with no traffic. There are a lot of things I am going to miss, but I am certain that I am not going to miss any chinese resturants in here and the cold weathers or shall I say "NO SNOW"! :-D
There are a lot of stuff I am not going to miss, but for now I can't think of any and I am still busy packing. If I can come up with any, I will make a list. For now, wish me a safe trip to Hong Kong. My fellow friends, let's keep in touch. For those who wanted a post card from me, I will try my best to send one as soon I reached Hong Kong.
