here it is folks - 1 more week left (sort of....if you don't count my overnight layover in chicago).  and then i'm HOME!  i'm excited/sad/nervous about traveling/sad/and relieved all at once.
and then i will start drawing again!  i'm serious :P  actually i have a job lined up now - a friend of mine wrote a bunch of educational children's books (teaching english). everything is set with the publisher, and the books are going to be used in classrooms at different schools - it's gonna be legit XD  real books to illustrate!  hopefully i can make the deadline: starting august 25 when i'm back, due nov 30.  until that time, i'm saying goodbye to china :(
