-^-for posterity-^-

what am i to do with myself until tet arrives? the lunar new year falls on the first of february this year and that’s when this semester ends. i’m not going to be able to teach any courses until then so i guess i have the next two months off.

no one knows what to do with me. i ask people and they all keep referring me to someone else. it’s one big game and i don’t know whether to be frustrated or whether to just sit back and enjoy my time. i guess i’ll just enjoy it while it lasts.

oh, today they did find something for me to do: check over a document that was translated. it’s pretty basic but it made me feel like i was working.

what is this place like? well, i’m beginning to find out but am not sure i’ll ever completely know.
