Getting there is half the fun

et je suis allé...

Well it looks like I have my housing situation sorted out afterall!! I got an email from the Rez people this afternoon saying I can stay in another residence across campus (talk about last minute!). It's basically like moving from Totem to Gage, and it doesn't sound too bad either. It works out to about $30 cheaper a week but it looks like I am sharing the room with some French guy?!?! Could be interesting. (Good thing I am not Kung, lest I get jailed for attempted sodomizing French nationals)

I am just leaving now to hop on a night train to the Malaysia/Thailand border and then tomorrow we are heading to the Perhentian Islands in Malaysia for a weekend of sun and sand and not much else. The islands are rated amongst the best tropical islands in the world so it should be fun! The only catch is beer is hard to come by as it is in a very Muslim state.

I am hoping to get lots of rest this weekend because Monday doesn't sound so pleasant. We get back Monday morning, hopefully before noon, then I have to clean and check out of my room, book it across campus with all of my junk (still haven't figured this one out), check in, and then go meet Dr. Iqbal for a meeting at 2:30!! But I am going to try and NOT think about this all weekend! See ya later....
