Because I didn’t do anything in the way of moving out
yesterday, I decided to devote today to those tasks.
Last night, after dinner, I bought the “Sex and the City”
movie and spent the entire night watching and re-watching it. Not because it’s that good, but because I was
so excited to finally get to see it.
I’d turned off my phone to save battery. I ended up sleeping until 11am (later than
I’ve slept in recent memory because of the routine of waking up at 9am every
morning). When I turned on my phone, I
was shocked to see how late my internal clock and the neighbors had allowed me
to sleep.
I watch the movie again, and started on my day. I got another box from the post office (my
life in China is now
compactly packed into two rather small China
Post boxes), I paid my water bill (the last time I’ll have to do one of those
difficult yet mundane tasks of living in China), and I bought a few things I
need for my trip.
Only a few more things to do in my barren apartment before I’ll be able
to move out. It’s weird to live in a
place with nothing on the walls and nothing on the shelves.
