Final Countdown

So I'm excited and nervous and crazy disorganized right now. My visa has yet to be returned, so I'm a little paranoid, but that's probably the least of my worries. I don't pack well. I've got crap everywhere, haven't secured a storage facility yet, and need to book some movers (as well as move my crap out of a friend's basement). It's going to be quite a project in the next couple of weeks, but I'm moving (slowly). I'm reading like crazy about the language and what I need to see/explore when I get there. Anyone with any tips, let me know.

Currently I'm sitting in Douglas (library) just enjoying the air conditioning that I miss so much, and taking advantage of the internet connection. 3 months of no T.V. and no internet connection have done something to my sanilty (I'm not sure what, but I feel that I'm crazier for not having either one - or at least a little more wierd - I have to find new ways to entertain myself). Despite my increased eccentricity, I've really had a great summer. It's not like last year at 215 Earl St. or anything, but I really enjoy the solitude of an entire house to myself (after my housemate was deported - yes, deported to the US). I also have a lot of time to reflect, which is nice. I haven't been feeling any of the "gosh, remember the good old days" kind of reflecting, but looking at what I've done, where I'm going (I'm still a little hazy on the details), and how this trip to Shanghai is going to shape me. I guess I won't know until I'm there, right?

Well, I can feel a nap coming on, so I'll keep this short. For anyone who is out there, don't you have anything better to do?

Whincup out

(I PROMISE never to use that line again, I swear!)
