The Gentleman is Open and at Ease

Confucius said, "The gentleman is open and at ease; the small man is full of worries and anxieties," (Wangdao 115).

I feel overconfident in my readiness for my final. Actually, I am repeating that to myself wishing it were true. Even so! It's the last week of school and, unfortunately, Chengdu, China. There is still much to see, learn, and enjoy. As a sidenote, Chengdu as a whole must be full of gentlemen (many people joke that this city is one of the most relaxed in China).
