The view of a Sri Lankan studying in America

On my way out

What a week it has been! Its the second week back at school and things are picking up already while I am leaving for two weeks to go back to Sri Lanka. We celebrated Martin Luther King's birthday, the Democrats finished their much talked about 100 hours today though I still cant figure out where they learned to keep time. Bob Gates made a trip to Iraq - again, Shawn and Ben are back with their families and are being swamped by the media, America has been fascinated by the recent hooliganism that occurred in Taiwan's parliament, the debate is on about who won the recent spat between Rosie and Donald, more people joined the race for 08 and the battle between the legislature and the executive is warming up.

Lindsey Lohan has checked into rehab and Miss America is expected out of rehab soon. The big hullabaloo about president Carter's new book is still raging though his book really isn't all that new anymore. The State Of The Union is coming up next week and the Southwest is expecting more bizarre weather. I'm typing all this at 3 am on Saturday morning while staying awake to try and reduce the jet lag for when I get back home.
