2:10 AM on Thursday, August 5th.  2 more weeks to go.  I've been running around gathering my many things to pack: personal effects, clothes, teacher resources, and of course, and a big jar of Nutella.  I'm almost ready to send off my boxes of cargo that won't get to me until October or maybe even November.

Aside from being super-duper busy, I've got a funeral and a friend's birthday to attend.  Not to mention I have to host 3 going away parties.  Don't even get me started on lesson planning, because that's taken a backseat in my priorities list as of a week ago.  I guess I worry about that once I'm in the People's Republic.
