well it certainly doesn't feel completely real to me. i've been running around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to procure last-minute visas and tickets and other sorts of annoying bureaucratic preparations. i haven't truly digested the fact that (if all goes according to plan) i will be on a big jet plane tomorrow at noon and after that the next time my feet touch the ground i will be in beijing.
i'm not sure what the internet situation is like, but i will try to capture my thoughts and experiences and take a lot of pictures with my phone-that-will-soon-become-a-paperweight.
it's been nine years since i've been home to the motherland. i am apprehensive and excited. my chinese vocabulary has dwindled to one that is probably not very impressive but i can still say "spicy lamb skewers", so all shall be fine.
