Tada.....this is it....my new blog! After many long awaited months, I'll be soon on my way to Asia once again. Am I excited? Yeah...Am I nervous? Well....ok. I'm sure it'll be fine though. Till then, I've got to get some sleep. I just spent most of yesterday and half of today taking a bus, yes bus, from Madison to NYC. Ann picked me up and wisked me off to Hilary's mom and dad's place. What a nice couple. That's about all I can come up with on about 3-4 hours sleep. They were pretty cool though. Oh and Ann thoroughly enjoyed telling any and all stories that came to mind. Ah well....it left me not having to say quite so much. It was fine with me. We had a great.....boy am I stuffed dinner.....and now all I feel like is curling up. Tomorrow's plan is to drive to see Stan and then head to Clinton's to meet the gang for the new year the following morning. Yeehaaa...that'll be fun. I'll be more excited on a full nights sleep in a horizontal position...but I really am looking forward to seeing everyone again. After the New Year I'll be heading to Seoul on the 4th..........so without further adiou..........only 6 days remain till I'm off once again....

Hope it's fun! :)
