U G L Y YOU AIN'T GOT NO ALIBI

So today was cleaning day, because my room was hideous.

HIDEOUS.

I am not using that word lightly. I had three trash bags full of crap that I could throw out, and it took 15 minutes to vacuum the place clean. I can reach any part of the room in three steps. 15 minutes. Yeah. I found some candy (that was within the realm of edibility), some stickers I had forgotten about, some long expired very useful coupons, and bus tickets that I would have liked to know I had lying around before I bought some yesterday. Also an US 20 dollar bill, not sure where that came from, but hey, 20 dollars. Nice.

I had both hash browns and pizza today, and that was grand. Unfortunately I remembered after the pizza had been cooked that I also had bacon lying around, so I didn't get the chance to make bacon pizza. Sigh.

Everything does look a lot... less, now. Which is a good thing, because now it looks like my possessions will actually fit inside my luggage. I still have some more cleaning to do, but I made enough progress today that tomorrow should be a breeze. Go downtown with those free tickets I found and try to sell some of the stuff to Book OFF. Anything they don't want I'll just sell back/give to my friends.

Also hung out with Fanxing in the first time since... well... forever. The last time we hung out was in the lobby after Michael Jackson died (which I only remember because he kept asking me about the guy). So that was nice, I feel bad about not seeing him much this semester.

We watched Philadelphia. I'm one of those incompetents that never hears about apparently classic films that I should know about, so I went into this one blind. Oh... oh God..... I think I'm heartbroken now. Good movie.

And I'm outta soda. Maurice, fetch me another C.C. Lemon! Stat!

Chug a lug.

I just want to say that I've been reading your blog for a while and have really enjoyed it- I hope you continue blogging when you're back stateside!

Ah, thanks for reading. I'm not sure this blog will remain active, considering it's entire purpose was to chronicle my stay abroad. If I continue blogging elsewhere I'll be sure to post a link to the new one.

Saw the link, I appreciate it! Have a safe trip back home. I hope the rainy New York summer eases up before you get back!
