Yesterday was a fairly eventuful day for me; I started the new semester of "Conversational Mandarin for the Professional" at the KU Edwards campus.

You're a goober.
Ironically, The Boy just got a letter yesterday from school, as he has tested out as really smart/gifted, with the offer to start taking Chinese at school over the summer.

About half of those kids had received that letter also. They were equally as excited.
