			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After my terrifying stay in Korea, I was forcibly dragged back to the States. This time, FASEE took me with her to Seattle, where she&#8217;s mostly likely training to be an evil minion of some sort with a corporation that seems to have some notoriety associated with it. I stayed on top of a dresser for almost two weeks, during which time I examined myself closely in the mirror. My travels have taken their toll on me. My previously sleek and healthy hair is now a dull gray from all the stress and abuse. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Being back home has reminded me why my country is better than yours (I&#8217;m addressing the USian readers of my blog):</p>
<ul>
<li> The <a href="http://digg.com/general_sciences/Nations_who_have_not_yet_adopted_the_metric_system_pic">metric system</a>. Why is the US in the same list as Liberia and Myanmar? </li>
<li> Correct <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendar_date">date formatting</a>. Little endian or big endian dates make sense. Who thought of middle endian? Over here, 7-11 gave out free slurpies on the correct 7/11, that is, November 7th. </li>
<li> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundabout_intersection">Roundabouts</a> instead of 4 way stops. They save on unnecessary wear on the brakes if there&#8217;s no one else at the intersection, while also stopping crazy drivers from ignoring laws and speeding through. </li>
</ul>
<p>Sigh. I can&#8217;t remember why I left in the first place.</p>

<p>My glasses are still crushing my body. However, I managed to look up some videos of koalas in Australia today on youtube, in preparation for my trip home. <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=zhkG7D4-cXw&amp;mode=related&amp;search=">Here&#8217;s one</a> that I really like.  I nearly fell off the desk laughing when I saw the koala on the left get almost knocked out of the tree. The koala on the right is tough. She (I think it&#8217;s a she&#8230; the video&#8217;s too blurry to tell) is a koala with courage and spunk. Maybe I can meet her.</p>
<p>Hey&#8230; why don&#8217;t I have claws?</p>

There&#8217;s tons of new people walking in and out and playing with the iPhone today.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Orientation: Upside Down</p>
<p>There&#8217;s tons of new people walking in and out and playing with the iPhone today. I tried playing with it when the humans were on a lunch break today, but my paws are too big and I couldn&#8217;t do anything except press the Home and Sleep buttons. The touchscreen didn&#8217;t work&#8230; which made me realize that I&#8217;m stuffed and not actually flesh and blood like other koalas. Does this make me a ghost? I feel alive&#8230; I feel like a computer scientist. I know where I was born and when I emigrated from Australia. Has my entire life been a lie??</p>
<p>WHO AM I??  <strong>WHAT</strong> AM I?</p>

I tried to sit up today. And failed miserably. The weight of my ginormous head made me fall. I fell on my back once and almost couldn&#8217;t get up. Why is my head the size of my body?
