Back in Beijing ( with a Big Load of Coursework to Welcome Me)

About roughly five o'clock, I returned with my fellow TBC students to the University of International Business and Economics, where I grabbed my bags, stumbled up to my room in the international students dorm, building #6....and then promptly grabbed my laptop, a quick bite to eat, and then I was off to the library, where I currently remain. 

Unfortunately, reality has hit fast, and hit hard with the force of an out-of-control freight train barreling along at top speed. Already, I have to write a five-page outline (how can an outline by five pages? Oh dear Lord, how?) for my People's of China term paper, due tomorrow at 4:30 PM, among many other things that require my attention. Needless to say, it's quite possible that it'll be several days until any photos from the trip appear. 

However, I'd still like to leave a quick note just to let everyone know that I've returned safely, and still otherwise just fine as of now. 

Hope everyone back home is doing well!
