2 days left

I can't believe I'm so close to being finished. I have a 7 1/2 hour day on Sat, and 4 hours on Sunday. And that's it. Finito. No more. I'll be unemployed.

 

I've bought our tickets to Shanghai and booked our hotel. Now I just have to pack up the apartment. Ugh, really not looking forward to that. I am such a packrat, I want to save everything! But I'll have to be reasonable. I'll have to send some stuff home ahead of me, but hopefully not too big a box. Theran bought another suitcase to bring stuff back. But he's only traveling for 2 weeks (and he's just going to store the suitcase at the Shanghai airport), there's no way i want to lug around piles of dvds, books etc while I traipse across Russia.

 

Anyhoo, packing shmacking. I've got more important things to think about. Like going away parties!! Yippee!!!

Where will you go after Russia? I had to ship a crap load of stuff home. Itmade it there ohhh 3 weeks after I left. I left all my books there--well reading material that is--for the next teacher to come in. There were books there from a previous teacher. Apparently it\'s an ongoing thing. Teachers just leave their books now. Or so I\'m told by the new teachers coming in. I can\'t wait to get back to Asia. I\'ve got a few contracts to finish up here and than I\'m back overseas.
