To Shanghai

Alright, today I'm off to Shanghai to begin my trip to China. I've given myself 2 hours to pack before I leave for Incheon airport, so hopefully that's enough time to be conscientious and thorough. My mother wouldn't think as much, but she procrastinates too. 

The flight is only one hour. I depart at 4:20 and arrive at 5:20. Oh wait, there might be a time zone change which would make it two. Still, I wasn't aware of how close China was to South Korea until I made these travel plans. When I arrive at the airport, I'll be taking some bullet, high-tech train out of the airport then I'll hop in a cab and hand the cabbie some Chinese characters my friend Matt sent me. Supposedly, they amount to his address. Then, with luck, I'll soon find myself in the company of my Chinese-fluent-future-finance-hotshot friend. Off I go. Alleged land of cutting-edge technology and hyper business-minded denizens, I'll see you soon.
