So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas.

Started class this morning. Two math 481 classes, at three credits each, when compressed into four weeks, is like a 12 credit course-load. Dr. J says we'll eat sleep breathe math for the next month, then added that he's sorry if we have a job.

I start work tomarrow, washing dishes, 20 hours a week. I tutor privatley. I'll grade papers. I'll be proctor people in the math placement exam. I'll do homework.

some think it'll be a hell of a month, for all the wrong reasons. I agree that its a hell of a month, but I'm always happiest when I'm busiest, tir'd (well, maybe not quite in the Joad sense of tired, tir'd, but the exhausted sense of tired).
