It is official. I am going to Shanghai.

With all of the great support of my friends, family, and readers I have raised enough money to fly to Shanghai! I booked my flight today! I will be departing from Atlanta at 6:56AM on Sunday, September 5th.

I have raised 89% of my goal. Still have another $175 dollars to go in order to reach $1600.

I cannot thank everyone enough — this is surreal and I am so anxious to head east. I am still perfecting the Closed Loop Shanghai T-shirts, but will post them as soon as the design is finalized.
