Pre-Flight, bags packed

Hello new devoted fans! This is my first blog entry ever, so bear with me as I awkwardly remember how to write.

Statement of purpose:
This blog was created with the intention of keeping my beloved friends and family back in the "Biggest Little City(c)" up to date on my each and every thought, feeling, emotion, tour, meal, step, and blink. I also intend to nostalgically reflect on the lost semester I had in Bangkok at some later date, and this tome of glory will perfectly fit that need.

Actual blog post:
I thought I would get this thing started before I left so that when I am neck deep in home-sick horror I will not have to learn how to do yet another thing. I picture myself in only one god damned day in a dank apartment, venomous godless parasites pouring through the chicken wire windows, unable to create a blog from scratch without sweating the last drop of salty sweat from my brow. Learning how to create and update a blog would be the straw that crippled the already sweaty and annoyed camel's final vertebrae. This way I can easily append more brilliance to an already established masterpiece.

So as stated in the previous paragraph, tomorrow is the day that I tongue kiss goodbye everything that I have ever known. What a thrill right? My current mental would best be described as frazzled. I am homeless, jobless, unwashed (washless?), and nervous.

Nervous: why? Well dear friends, this is Young Jeff's first international trip of any kind and longest aeroplane ride ever. Oh and also this:
This charming gentleman is one of the current protesters waiting patiently in Bangkok for me to step off of the 747 so that he can cut off my arms and beat me with them while shouting "quit hitting yourself". Thailand, as of yesterday has been put into a "state of emergency". A comforting thought indeed. I'm sure they'll get over it by tomorrow though, right? Right!

Here's from that time I was part of an exhibit at the SFMOMA:

Over and out

Jeffrey! Don't worry, USAC will take care of you. They know you can sue them and don't really want the grief of such a process.
Have lots of fun and great experiences, and make sure to bring me that Thai food!
