I am officially the last person left in Chambana. It's cold and lonely here.

I'm back in Urbana, in my little room with my bookshelves and my dresser and desk and everything. I like it here. I can't wait to get my bed in a few days.

I'm watching Daria. I may call in sick to work tomorrow. 20 days left until I go back to school. I can't wait.
