in chongqing/chengdu for 4 days (never been here before) and im most looking forward to the food and drinks bc it's hitting 38 degrees here

i'm still deeply self conscious of the quality of my cantonese (bad bc lack of vocab and odd pronunciation and also weird use of grammar…my dad told me i speak canto w english grammar and it sounds weird) especially since i grew up in hk so it's not like i grew up overseas and wasn't immersed etc. but also english fluency is a sign of socioeconomic privilege (in hk) so i should b grateful for that at least

2 am just got home from picking up my dad from the train station (20 min drive) after his trip up to the mainland that my mum is mad about and she's also probably annoyed that i went to pick him up bc she thinks he should taxi home since it's his own fault he was out so late having dinner w his friends
