1. I still don't speak a word of Cantonese.
(Well, actually, that's not true. I know 5 words -- "thank you", "please", "stop here", "what's up?" and "idiot". I think it is a very full vocabulary.)
2. I am no longer annoyed at the sound of Cantonese.
(Well, actually, that's not true either. Now and then I still get bothered by the high-pitched squawking, but much less than when I first moved here.)
3. I still love the skyline, the bay, the lights. (True)
4. I still haven't been to China. (Unfortunately, true.)
5. I think it is an incredible city. It is both 90 minutes and a world away from home. (Irrefutably true).
