One month of blogging

My friends Ric and Gin have committed to one full month of blogging. I was much better when I first arrived in China but each passing month has seen a steady decline in the number of posts I write. Sometimes I think I have to have something important to say but most people back home or just interested in what I'm up to on a day-to-day basis anyway. So I need to remember blogging = weblog = diary. I think back to keeping a diary as a kid. I'd inevitably miss days at a time, then go back and try to make up for missed entries.

So my goal is to write a post every day for the month of July. It might be a boring sentence, but there will be something.

Today's thoughts: Very, very stressful as there are two full days left of school. We're supposed to be all packed up and ready to go by the end of the half day on Friday. I got home, fell asleep for about two hours and realized how badly I needed it. I will be back in NY by next Sunday evening. It's so close I can't believe it!
