Busy days before going home!

I am leaving York within 34hours. Yes, I'm going home for Xmas and the New Year!! Before that, I have ten 1500word essays to mark. This is what I'm doing at the moment. I also have to finish off a few things related to my own research. I also want to go to the city centre for Xmas shopping. If possible at all, I want to spend some time with my flatmates over a pint. Humm, awful a lot!!! Oh well, we shall see how it goes!!

Bye for now; Next time I'll be writing from Japan!!!

... It's 5:30 in the morning now. I have done 6 more, so 4 essays to go. So far it took more than an hour to read, write a comment and module report for the term. I will finishthem off as quickly as I can. But it's time to go to bed!

8.00 p.m. 14 Dec.
Finally, I have come back home yesterday.
Looking back, I think I have done a very good job. In fact, I did all that I wrote I wanted to do.

After I arrived at Narita Airport on Sunday 11 Dec., I went to a three-day Angro-Asia conference on intellectual history and political philosophy, Cambridge Moment: Virtue, History, and Public Philosophy. I will write some comments about it in my blog on history.
