Organizational Entry...

In the next 2 weeks I need to:
- go downtown to the passport office when they're open. Once on Tuesday to see if they'd let me in without an appointment, and once on Friday if they didn't let me in on Tuesday. Then go again shortly thereafter to get a passport and to march it down to the China embassy to get a rush visa. By June 9th.
- put books in boxes, and then in a rolly suitcase and ship it home.
- sell some books?
- start packing for home.
- finish Martial Arts paper tomorrow, and then write Shaughnessy paper.
- fill out graduation paperwork, get robe, etc.
- Tuesday Wednesday morning after Japanese: locate Student Care Center, get TB tests and other paperwork sent to STEP.
- make a list of furnitureses that I'm selling/bequeathing. Sell/bequeath.
- use up food stash.
- graduate

Yeah . . . that final list of furniture I'd love to have sooner rather than later, so I can send it on to our apartment offspring.

As for the books--which ones are you selling? Eh? Eh?

What graduation paperwork do you need to fill out? I remember filling out a little card at the beginning of the year, but other than that... Oh, and when do we buy our robes? Are they insanely expensive?

The SCC is pretty easy to get to. Go south to 59th street. Turn right and go west until you get to the Cancer Research Center (about 2 blocks west of Ellis). Enter the Cancer Research Center and ask the guard for the Student Care Center. It's like 12 or 15 seconds to the SCC from the information desk. The TB test is quick and mostly painless---but you do need two appointments. One to have the bubble injected in your arm (very small, no worries), and the other appointment two days later to read it (the reading takes 5 seconds).

Hey, I own like 3 robes in different heights (I think they just do the sizing by height) - 5'3"-ish, 5'7"-ish, 5'10". If you want to buy one from me for like $10, let me know.

Yeah, I totally want to buy one! I'm 5'8", so the 5'7"ish one sounds like it would work. Is it the same from year to year? Give me an email at jp256@yahoo.com or my uchicago address.

Ummm, also, how did you end up with three different robes?!

No one offered me any graduation robes. They should at least have given me the cap. ::sniff::

They don't offer them to you- you go buy them. Silly.

Hurry up and come to China, Sushu!

By the way, what ever happened to the papasan chair? And what about my leftover bag of stuff- is it small enough to be mailed now? I still have money stashed away in paypal for this sort of thing.
