4 weeks left

I just flipped through my organizer and realized that my parents are arriving in exactly 4 weeks!

Wow, I didn't realize that I am going to be graduating so soon. Granted, this quarter is not as busy as the previous two. But, there is still a lot to finish up within the next few weeks. Hope all goes well!

So I have been a bad boy and went to the Big Apple over the weekend instead of working. It was a very hectic trip, which started with an overnight flight where I slept less than 4 hours. The first day involved a lot of walking, Mary Poppins, and a late night meeting with Jason until 2am or so.

The next few days also involved considerable walking, although we got tired and used the subway more often. We were lucky enough to be along 5th Ave when the Queen was apparently shopping in one of the shops. The entire road was filled with police cars parked perpendicular to the sideway with their sirens flashing. It was quite a sight. I also had my very first Tapas meal; expensive but very good.

It was nice catching up with some friends and seeing NYC for the last time for many years to come. Thanks to YC for hosting us too, else would have spent a bomb on some crappy accomodation. Too bad we were both too busy moving around and didn't really get much time to sit back and chat. I suppose in NYC, everyone just lives life at a faster pace.
