Two Months Later: After the Jetlag

Forgive me readers, for I have sinned. It has been a two whole months since I last posted on this blog. And let me tell you, a bit has happened since then.

The biggest news of course, is that Corey and I are home now. Our year in China ended at the end of February, and was followed up by a fantastic trip through South East Asia.

I apologize for not keeping the internets up to date with the final few days in China, which were amazing. Things just started happening so damn fast, that I couldn't catch up, and never had time to catch my breath in that "I'm gonna go blog" sort of way.

In the days since we've been home, I've found that there have been a lot more people reading this blog than I ever could have imagined, and to anybody who I didn't lose over the course of a two month hiatus, I want to thank everyone who checked out this blog. Friends, family, and the guy who randomly typed Dalian into google and hit search.

What's a Dalian, anyway?

This post marks the beginning of the end for this blog. I have one or two more things planned before I officially close the books on The Year of the Rats, so stay tuned to a few more pictures, and tear inducing reflections on the most amazing experience of my life.

Noooooo! I refuse to believe its over. There has to be some sort of backlog of things forgotten, or a part II in "This is Shawn's Life" or even just a great amount of detail of the SE Asia trip.

BUT I guess now that you're home, you can read my blog since the US doesn't block blogger. I don't mind being a big time Asian Blogger if your readers are lookin for somethin to fill the gap! haha

I got no problem passing the torch to ya... the only problem would be that my readership has probably dwindled down to three people - including you.

That and the jealousy towards the fact that you're still blogging away in Asia and I'm... wallowing in empty pizza boxes back in NY.
