its 1018 on a chilly camb morning. i am sitting in a dimly lit room with whirring fans and using someone else's dell computer. i feel really disorientated, in spite of all the bravado. yesterday was an exhausting and highly emotional day, understandably. it began at the airport, where an unexpectedly large number of people turned up to see me off. i was so touched! thanks guys, you really made the day special for me. my wunderrful ny babes were there-- bry, bust, lan, hong. i was so so happy to see them! and of course yy and monster, permanent fixtures at the departure hall (sorry i won't be there cum!) and peiling and haresh, who gave me an absolutely me book EXCEPT that it weighed a ton in my bag. i only feel bad that i didn't even manage to talk to everyone properly. that's the irony of having too many people at once. given the luxury of time i would love to have sat down and have an hour of coffee with every single one there. but well, we'll still meet virtually! tech bridges all divides. ha.

well, there's still a million things to do today. all the usual housekeeping stuff. the seniors have been excetionally helpful; yijin helped me with my embarrassingluy volumnious suitcase at the bus station and ryan and ben...facilitated..my first dinner. haha. today i shall... buy groceries, get a phone, get the net, lunch with yvonne, and....bank. woosh.
