My meeting with Carolyn went well – now I’m almost, almost, almost done!  I did lots of errands and tasks to prepare for my trip to Tokyo; returning library books, packing a few suitcases I’m storing at the Roosevelt offices for a few weeks, and doing some final work for my lunch with Gordon tomorrow.

I was an idiot this afternoon – when I went to the ATM I took out $40 but reached for my check card before getting my cash; the cash went back in the machine!  So, I get another $40 this time and when I went to look at my online bank statement, I got charged twice!  I called their customer service, so things should be sorted out, but it’s kind of annoying to be short $40 in your account.

I watched Bad Boys tonight while packing.  Hilarious movie.  I think that brings the summer movie count to 34.  I also ran campus loop – I even hopped the fence to run a lap around the track – it’s so soft compared to pavement!  If only I didn’t have to run in circles there…

I think this is my class schedule for the Fall.  I hope I don’t die:

History291 – Maps, Borders, and Conflicts in East Asia
Asnamst 200R – Directed Research [reading the Survey on Race Relations]
History 136A – European Thought and Culture in the 19th Century
CASA 88 – Theories in Race and Ethnicity
PoliSci 20SI – Asian American History and Issues

Another 20 unit quarter.  Fuzzy style.
