An epic journey almost over...
Wow
The past few weeks have been so insane. The sands of time have passed many times from top to bottom as I have been diligently tackling paper after paper with pieces of research work and some 7-11 time. Just finished the menacing introduction to panel data paper and a heavy weight has been lifted...breathing is again easy and am just waiting to finish a couple of little finals and prepare for graduation before I fly off to Taiwan for a month.
The couch in our graduate center is a bit too comfortable to catch naps on after all-nighters, there just seems to be something wrong with that...being comfortable in grad school. We have it really nice here, fridge/freezer, microwave, couch, recliner, computers, I have basically lived up here the past few weeks and it has been better than home.
Looking forward to having nothing I have to do for a month in a country where I will not have any idea about what people are talking about, except in broken english. It will be so great...just nodding yes and no, not worrying about anything, touring the country, probably crashing at a couple hostels in Taipei when not in Kao Hsiung at the grandmother's house. The sketch supplies and camera will be the only teller of time that I need.
I am so exhausted, I really do not have anything to rant about for pages.
