AUG 31 is our proud day of Independence. Instead of spending quality time at home with the kids, I felt sad I was stuck in a long flight to Taipei for a conference. Long plane journeys are bores! It is mere claustrophobia of rigidity, complemented by an atrocity of bad food and cheap wines.
I often try my best to pretend to drift away in my own clouds behind the loose eyeshades and useless earplugs when travelling. Of course it was not easy when on the left, there was an oversized man overpowering the whole cabin with his snores and the lady on the right was drowning in her own tears absorbed by the inflight movie.
