Last Day of Work
Well, it finally feels like I'm going to leave! Today was my last day of work at Murfins. I really have enjoyed working there this summer. It wasn't ever too hard of work, and the people were lots of fun. Towards the end of the day, they called me to the back room. When I got there, they had a nice big chocolate cake that said "Good Luck Keith" on it. And they had a card that they had had everyone sign. It was really nice. It sure made me feel good. Everyone was saying that they are going to miss me. Then a little while later, the girls that I work with the most gave me a card from them as well. They wrote down their addresses and gave me a few dollars for me to send them a postcard from China. I do have a lot of good friends there, but I can't WAIT to actually get to China! And I'll be back in 4 months and I'll say hi to them then. But I'm down to the last few days before I leave. The ONLY thing I'm not looking forward to is the 40 hours of travel (including layovers) that I have to endure, ALONE, before I can actually get there. Oh well, it will be well worth it in the end! *just keep telling yourself that...

Sorry to Dissapoint
Well, I promise that when I get to Nanjing that I will post more often than just once a month. I know that so many of you attempting to stalk me and have been highly disappointed with how hard I have been making it by not posting anything on my blog regularly for you. :-) Well, one of the biggest reasons/excuses that I have for not posting anything lately is because I have had Vincent (曾威榮) here visiting me for the past 2 weeks 多. It has been really fun. Unfortunately, I haven't really had a whole lot going on to keep him busy or entertained. And I have been working about 40 hours/week while he's here too. Oh well, we did get to go up to Independence and Liberty to see the Church historical sites there. It was really cool. We got to watch the Joseph Smith movie, it was pretty much amazing. Other than that I haven't really been up to much. Just counting down the days until I leave... 14 is the magic number for today. Unfortunately I just found out that my flight from Kansas City to Los Angeles was changed to an earlier time. So instead of having a 1 hour lay-over in LAX, I have a 12 hour lay-over! Lucky me! I think I might just shoot myself... I intend on keeping my phone active until I actually leave so I will probably call many of you faithful stalkers of mine while sitting in LA and implore you to entertain me. :-) No, seriously though, I will probably end up spending quite a bit of time on the phone while I'm sitting in the airport.
Well, perhaps I will find something else to post about before the end of the month. There is a dance this Friday. I'm planning on going up to St. Louis with some friends on Saturday to go to the temple since I won't have an opportunity to go again until December when I go to the temple in Taibei. The there is a baptism on Saturday afternoon, which will be fun too. Anyway, I think I'm going to go hang out with some of my cool friends, because, well, they are cool. Do I need any better reason? I think not. Thank you. Good bye.
