I can say things in Chinese! Important things, such as "I am drinking tea" and "I am not a cat."
We've got the closets in our apartment separated between stuff we're selling/donating, stuff we're storing at parents' houses, and the minuscule pile of stuff we're taking to China. So far, that pile consists of a scanner, some pads of paper and pen nibs, various board games, a camera, and Shardik. You know that silly question, "If you were stranded on a desert island and could only take 5 books, what would they be?" Just change that to, "If you were stranded in a foreign country with humanity's most convoluted writing system and could only carry 5 books on the plane, what would you take?" and you have my situation. Feel free to answer that question, btw.
