In Memory of Will Genge
The Journey
Today our journey has come to an end
No gifts to purchase no money to spend.
Our Yen and Yuan gone and tuition is due
Hopefully Duquesne will understand too.
The country of Asia has taken its toll
No energy left inside of my soul.
The tiring walks and waking up early
Were all worth the pain and agony surely.
The Great Wall of China the shrines and the gardens
The Bank of Ramos and the infamous Marlin.
The fake Louie bags and Gugci jeans bought
Were not finally sold without having fought.
Meeting the students and owning the table
Ping Pong was awesome U.S. won the label.
Shirley and Wendy Cindy and Star
Were all very helpful in guiding us far.
Viv timed out Yokim and Baptiste bought flowers
We relaxed in Hohoi for numerous hours.
Bruzda and Shedlock watched out for the crew
Meandering through Ropongi without any clue.
Stimulating the economy was a gargantuan task
But Steph spent more money than China could ask.
Johnson will forever be funding the debt
That McNansky accrued so her needs were met.
Diane’s swift ability to navigate maps
And anime cities with afternoon naps.
A symphony of snoring and the Korean Dream
Traffic and taxis made everyone scream.
Evenings at keep and watching Kenny Powers
Soaking in bathtubs with other men for hours.
E.T. and Superman Typhoon and Black
Shedlock with a carry-on for a daily snack.
Sitting on the toilet all night and so sick
Brett and poor Andrew the food was redic.
The drama and bickering screaming and crying
Yet the trip was so perfect I am not even lying.
Shanghai we visited as fast as we could
Running through yu garden was not very good.
Scanning deer scratches on the side of a tree
The dormouse is extinct like bananas -Solecki.
Frolex and Oakey were brought back to the states
But happy are we for the cheap interest rates.
China we owe you but you have won too
We brought to your country our ignorant crew.
Although our decorum was slightly a joke
We’re sorry again for the rules that we broke.
We tried to be gracious, respectful and kind
We most likely drove you all out of your mind.
Regardless of making a thunderous display
Our group wants to thank you in every way.
This trip has been awesome and the experience was stacked
Ch-apan be prepared when we’re on our way back.
-Ryan Shedlock
Thanks again to Matt and Diane for organizing this amazing experience. Without you we could not have made this happen. This trip offered a great cultural perspective as well as a learning experience that could not be attained in any classroom. We appreciate your organization of this trip as well as coming along with us. I only hope that you enjoyed this experience as much as we did.
