What is Cold?

For the past few days, I have been thinking about packing. (I haven’t actually started yet, but I am working towards it.) J.P. (my supervisor), Aimee (his wife), and Sarah (the other LCMS WM GEO) have all suggested I pack layers because it get cold over there during the winter. The lowest it gets is 40-50 degrees Fahrenheit, and since I have grown up in mid-Missouri and spent the last 4 years in Kirksville that sounds like a heat wave to me. I was a little confused about why J.P., Aimee, and especially Sarah (who is from Iowa and therefore I assume has some knowledge of what cold actually is) would be calling 40-50̊ cold. Then they told me houses aren’t usually heated due to high cost.

It all makes sense now. I’ll be taking a few sweaters.

January 8, 2011

So I have been spending the last few days seeing people here in the States that I won't be around for a while.

New Year's Day, I drove up to Kansas City with Jordan so she and I and my roommate Katy could drive to Lincoln for Nate and Alison's wedding.  It was an awesome wedding and I was glad for the chance to see a few my friends from LSF before I go.



This Friday I had people over for a movie night.  I finally saw Shaun of the Dead.  Hilarious and especially good when immediately followed by Hot Fuzz.

This weekend, Laura Beth and Becky are in town visiting Leah and me.  We went to Fuji Steakhouse at the mall, which is delicious! Definitely try the Jeff City Sushi Rolls if you ever go.  I practiced using chopsticks. Hopefully I will be more successful the next time I go...

Good News!

My visa is in and my flight is being booked.  I head out for Hanoi on Monday, January 17!
