The Month of Birthdays

Today is October 1st. Happy 60th Birthday to the People's Republic of China. I will soon revel in your birthday festivities (primarily watching the firework display from the comforts of my apartment, while indulging in watermelon and/or pineapple juice). Action packed, I know.

September was a blur. The new semester started. I have 3 new Freshmen English Usage classes that I enjoy very much (it is early yet), and 3 Sophomore Writing classes, in which half of the students are mine from last year (the joy). I don't have a single day off, but my schedule is not all that bad. Plus, most days are spent at the main campus, which means my commute is 2 minutes instead of 35.

I also joined the Hong Kong Slow Pitch Softball Association. It is the highlight of my week. The only downfall is that I didn't join last year (because for some ludicrous reason, I didn't know about it). Every Saturday we have a game, sometimes two, and they are competitive, fun, and ridiculously hot. I play for The Doghouse. Bunch of good guys on my team, and I'm looking forward for the rest of the season. Keep track of my stats here:

And yes, my name is spelled Edinger. I need to find somebody to correct that. And while they are at it, correct my slugging percentage, because it is impossible to have a lower slugging percentage than batting average, but yet, I do. My goal is to win Rookie of the Year, although there is some stiff competition. I'll keep the masses (all 4 of you) updated.
