Wow...
I figure I owe some response to the slew of Goucher friends postings and such in the last 48 hours or so.
Firstly, I'd like to say congrats to Ben... big big congrats. I'm a bit surprised, but I havent seen you in a long while, I'm glad to hear you are doing well. Also I'm a bit offended you didnt feel the need to seek my aproval... but dont worry retribution is comming. This bit really belonged on a response to your live journal, but as this website is blocked here in China, I have to through an anonymizer which can allow postings, but not comments. I dont know why, but then again, I am still trying to figure out how LJ is a subversive website.
Secondly, alot of people have been asking me when I'll be comming back, and the answer is July. I fly to the east coast on the 20th and I'm going straight to DC to see my... grandmother... and others... which is really exciting. I'm planning on heading up to Vermont for a family wedding the weekend of the 28th, and hoping to start work sometime shortly after. I'm still looking around, but actually getting a job is a long while off. I know I'm normally a lazy bastard but Ive actually sent my resume to over 15 places, mostly in the DC area. I'm hoping to be either in DC, NY, Philly, Boston, or SF. Namely, somewhere nice while I figure out grad school. (aka build up the desire for another few years of school) Some places are currently winning out over others, but I think some... other factors ...have yet to weigh in on exactly where I'll be.
Then again, I havent figured out exactly what kind of job I' looking for either. Ive recently decided I'd like to model my life path after Paul Wolfowitz... minus the evil... and I could do without the scandel, but I wouldnt mind making world news headlines.
Its interesting that I am writting this now, a new trip of Goucher students are in town here this week, got to hang out with some of them. Which was fun.
In other news I'm doing recording and edditing work for a new text book here. Recording work here pays rediculously well, I made almost 40$, yes dollars, an hour on my last job, this one isnt quite as good, but still, I am shocked how much my accent buys me here.
Life is good otherwise, I have four weeks of classes left, and a small amount of travel before I come home. I look forward to seeing everyone again, catching up and hanging out. Let me know when you are free between the 23rd of July and the 8th of August and I'll show up on your doorstep looking for some floor space.
Untill then, peace good brothers.
