---- Hi Amy! ----

I'm frantically trying to finish up some reading before class so can't write much, but here's a "hi" to Amy - right back at ya!. She just changed up her webpage, so check it out.

I'm sitting class, sipping my coffee - I have nooooooooo idea what is going on. tee hee hee...
Dickey-Fuller test for Unit roots? Error correcting methods for determining weakly dependent variables?
ahahahahajajaa

Ahoy Ahoy!

I don't think I slept enough last night...

It's been a while - need to start updating this for real.

Highlights as of late:
* Super-memorable very romantic unforgetable v-tines day with Amy.
* Finished all major applications: State Dept background check, Hopkins-Nanjing Center app, financial aid applications.
* Settled on classes, enjoying very much, esp. International Monetary System.
* Met up with an old friend and violin collegue (from when I was 5 years old!), who by serendipidy also recently graduated from SAIS after a short unsatisfactory career in IT.
* Return to violin finally taking hold. Gave a short performance of some Bach at the SAIS talent show - very good response =). Now only a cello short of a piano quintet. In much better shape that I would have realized.
* Amy going to belize - without me :( - going to SF to go skiing with my two sisters, and maybe amy :)
* Did I mention how much International Monetary system ... okay, I'm a dork, but I was psyched when my "too Sensational: choice in exchange rate regimes" arived.
* Went to a Ladytron concert this past monday. Obscure 80's retro-fusion band from the UK.
* Lots of snow - 4 day weekend. Playing around, walking around the city, coffee and rings with Dennis.
* First China Studies gathering, watching PBS frontline show.

Anyways, I should and will go in more detail, and soon.

Life is good.
