The last week has been a mad sprint to finish finals. As my last post suggests finals take priority over all else, especially personal health. Thankfully, year one of the HESA program is behind me and I can move onto more pressing matters such as China. 5 weeks in China!
Thankfully the car (Black Thunder) has been "repaired" and can now transport us to Judicator Brewskie's Pennsylvania residence. I say "repaired" because the dent in the driver door is gone, but now the lock does not respond to the remote or the car lock/unlock toggle. But at least the car is back.
My father came to visit for the weekend and made the end of finals week that much better. He got to sample some of Columbus' proud foodie installations including Jeni's, Buckeye Pho, & Surly Girl. Being around family and friends was a nice release from seeing people fleetingly in the library with the same tired look in our eyes. But now everyone is much more lively! Also, thanks to padre I now have some new blues albums to listen to on the drive to Pennsylvania.
Packing for China has proven to be the most difficult part of this ordeal. At this point I'm three bags heavy including clothes, toiletries, gifts for the Chinese, food, pills and whatnot. I'll need the third bag for all the stuff I'll pick up in China where the USD is worth 6x the Renminbi (Chinese unit of currency).
