Back in the Tats

Just got home, unpacked, and showered after a 24 hour commute. Left San Francisco last night in a swirl of emotion, stoned haziness, and near gut-bust from San Tung's famous chicken wings. Man this flight is brutal and I am beat up tired. A couple of cool things that happened were: 1) during my layover, I got a massage in Taiwan from a blind dude who could speak chinese, japanese, and english, so we practiced, and 2) I ran into a guy from the JET Programme in the food court (Gavin), and we had beef noodle soup together for breakfast. He spent the summer in New Zealand and was just getting back, I guess he had an 8 hour layover in Taipei airport but they kicked him out overnight (whoever heard of an airport closing overnight?!).

I had an awesome trip back home. It was so good to see everybody and hang out (and sorry if I missed anybody - Mari, Shin, Gordon especially, you're first on the list for next time).

I gotta pass out I'm delirious from the exhaustion, and I gotta get up for school in the morning. Back to the 3 speed bike.

I'll upload pictures from the last 2 months this weekend and try to catch up a bit on the ol' blog... that is, unless I go to "Tennis Camp," which I got an invitation from this retired dude from my Chinese class invited me to. Cool, huh?
