Hey everyone. So this is my first post.
I have 11 days before I leave for China. My flight leaves very early in the morning on Tuesday August 21st. I have bought almost everything I wanted to buy before I leave. I have packed almost everything, I need to do laundry and pack clothes but it's too early for that. I studied very little this summer, so I think the only thing I am stressed out about is that my Chinese is very poor.
I also have to finish the class I am taking this summer. It has been great. But I need to write a short research paper and take the final. I also have some work to do on my research proposal. I am going to see an advisor finally. I need to see if I can get credit for doing research, and what I need to do so that next year this project can be my qualifying paper for my major.
My laptop died. I swore a lot. I need to get the data retrieved, which the Geek Squad guys said I could do. So hopefully I haven't lost all my photos and such. I'm going to buy a new laptop, three years is sort of an average lifespan for a laptop hard drive, so oh well.
