One Last Hurrah (well, until the next one)

as some of you may have heard, i'll be leaving for Shanghai in February.  if you haven't heard, you mean nothing to me.  while i've never really been one to plan my own extravaganzas, one final night of mayhem is certainly called for.  it's tentatively looking like Saturday night (31st) will  be started off at Bristol Bar--i wanted somewhere relatively low-key but still fun.  that and they serve cans of PBR there.  suggestions are welcome, of course, if you're like, allergic to PBR.  afterwards, BEER PONG!  woohoo!  last chance to skunk me.  i'll make sure to wear my cute undies.  

on a side note, i think the anxiety of such an imminent and drastic departure is growing.  i know i'll be in for a serious culture shock regardless, but tack on the underlying apprehension i still feel about getting scammed/abducted/murdered... shrug.  guess i'm just worried that something about this teaching job is gonna go terribly wrong, with all of the horror stories i've read.  if everything goes according to plan, i'll be teaching oral english at a finance university and also part-timing at a startup marketing company, as opposed to giving oral entertainment at the local boy-toy massage parlor and part-timing at the local sweatshop.  call me skeptical.  at the very least, i will be able to stay at my parents' apartment (which, by the way, is totally PHAT.  it's on one of the premier golf courses just outside of shanghai, so if any of you koreans wanna stop by and party, lemme know) and just find a job in person.  hopefully the visa issues will work out too.

anyways, hope to see some of you this weekend!  if not, happy life.
