   Today I'm leaving for 'Nam.

Got my stuff all packed. ~30% of all the things stuffed in our suitcases are stuff to give to people.

I'm going to be there... for such a long time! About a month, actually a little over a month if you count the plane-ride part. Oh, the plane ride-- I dread it! Today's the 5th... so I won't be in my parents' hometown until around the 8th, including the air trip and car ride in Nam.

I went out to buy a book yesterday, I heard on the radio a year ago how funny this book was, so I thought it'll entertain me on the plane: "The-Know-It-All: One Man's Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World". I might have to leave the iPod at home, seeing how eforcity.com wouldn't let me change my shipping option (for a travel charger) to 3-days after I mistakenly selected Standard. For a company that sells technology stuff, their website and company policies sure suck. You can't even cancel your order, that's how much they suck those sucking suckface suckatoids. Oh well. I was a bit awry using any chargers in Asia, seeing how their voltage can fuck up your things, even with power adapters, so this may be a blessing in disguise.

There are a few things I want to do this time that I didn't do 5 years ago. This includes driving a moped, making a friend, and helping out a beggar. Not to sound like an asshole, but those beggars can be pretty scary (or annoying), I'll tell you that. Some will sit next to you while you're eating and beg or just plain stalk you and get their friends to, too! Things that I'll do from most likely to least likely? Drive a moped, help out a beggar, make a friend. =P.

That's all I have to say for now, I wish you guys an awesome Christmas and New Years! Perhaps I'll update over there, depending on how paranoid I'll feel about people stealing my information or if net access is readily available.

Take care!
