Cultural Learnings of America to Make Benefit of International Student

Danke for good wishes to make happiness for Givethankings! This weekend it has been hard to get down to work. Instead of working:

Got new haircut (new bangs always look very tut for the first 2 weeks)
Walked my friends' dog twice so far, worried that he is not pooping
Watched Pride and Prejudice twice in a single evening (curled up on sofa)
Threw a dinner party in which laksa, lychees and Drambuie were involved
Went to a Thanksgiving dinner last night - good things to eat
Made mashed potatoes with sinful wine-and-shallot butter (helloo? do I rock or what!!!)
Played Scrabble
Biked around
Going to hang out with new/old friend this weekend (will let you know if food-sharing was involved)
Got the gist of Michael Goldman's book in which he talked a lot about Laos (ok, semi-work. I had to feel better about myself)

Now must get down to real work. Boo hoo.
