| 12th September 2008 Milady605 | - From: There and Back Again Hi! I was actually read your blog over the summer, as a way to get to know Wuhan a little better before arriving. I've been here for a little over two weeks now, and I like the city quite a bit so far. I hope you have a great year! |
| 5th June 2008 Sarah | Biggest Prom Ever - From: Enchantment Under the Sea What is there like a Prom of a thousand? There are soo many people... That is sooo fun! I hope no girls had to cry in the bathroom during the production of this event. Oh and Michael your tutor very cute! |
| 3rd March 2008 Dan Harrison | nice face - From: Once on This Island... Hi Cori, How cool - I'm sure your mom told you that I ran into her (well, not literally) but I saw her. So she gave me the scoop on what you are doing. Nice face, by the way! How much longer are you there? Dan (Mr. H.) |
| 25th February 2008 Sarah | Lunch - From: Thailand: The Beginning So I typically read these while I eat. It is like the noon soap opera that way. Here I am sitting thinking of what I want to eat and here you are making great food. I once wanted Mexican now I am thinking Thai. We surprisingly have a great little modern Thai place here in Missouri. Sign me up for the Cori V. Cook Class! I feel a welcome home party with dancing a cooking!!! |
| 22nd February 2008 Ash | Awesome. - From: Gong Xi Fa Cai! (Happy Chinese New Year!) Yeah, you pretty much rock, like Sarah said. (And Blizzarding is totally a word). Super good use of your time - I bet you've got a pretty wicked passport by now eh? Greetings from Oz!! love |
| 21st February 2008 Sarah | God you are HOTT - From: Gong Xi Fa Cai! (Happy Chinese New Year!) First of all it is blizarding here in Missou (yes blizarding is a word in the nuttdictionary) so you are hottt in your 80 degree weather! Second no seriously you are sexy that picture of you against the water where your figure is all black. I want a copy of that poster size and I wanna frame it and put it on a wall. What a great picture. Can't wait till the next post! Great teasers! Keep it up my beautiful friend! |
| 23rd January 2008 Sarah | Love, Love. - From: JESSI IN CHINA! So I was starting to think your Blog was affected by the writer's strike too. I am happy to see it isn't and only affected by your adventures... Can't wait to get the next subscription... Love the coat, Love the hair, Love your sister, Love you and if I may say you are looking very very good these days! |
| 16th January 2008 Barbara | Miss you so much! - From: JESSI IN CHINA! You are having Too Much Fun!!! It already seems like months since I saw you. So sorry I didn't have a chance to meet Jessie. Can't wait to hear about your backpacking adventure. |
| 15th January 2008 Carl | Your new coat! - From: JESSI IN CHINA! I really like the green coat...green is the best color in the world, therefore you are even more of a champion than you were before :D |
| 7th December 2007 J | KIDS IN A BUBBLE!!! - From: Arts and Entertainment ohmygod. Cori can we do that. I want to do that. PLEASE can we do that?! |
| 5th December 2007 Ash Poust | Yeah Archery - From: Arts and Entertainment Shooting arrows is the best! I bet they didn't have any safety precatutions at that little range if I remember my Chinese Better Business rules correctly. That sign above the range says "You'll shoot your eye out!" |
| 25th November 2007 Amanda | Wow! - From: Giving Thanks That's an amazing amount of deliciously-looking food!! I hope you are having an amazing time in China! |
| 9th October 2007 K. Mac | - From: SHANGHAI!!! Part 4- Yuyuan Garden, Cori said as she walked through the gate... I did the same peeking thing just today around a mushroom rock at Yeliou! |
| 9th October 2007 Sarah | 6 weeks? - From: Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow... I would be going every three weeks. Just make up a new excuse and die your hair a different color or something. Come on for 2.50 I would do the craziest stuff and then 6 months before your done just shave it all off and let it grow. Come on your in China you could go bald. Well ok you don't have to go bald but jeeze go to that place more often than 6 weeks!!! PS. Does that head rubber guy need a girlfriend? |
| 5th October 2007 Cousin T | - From: Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow... Cor - the haircut is awesome! i've just booked my flight over - i think it will be cheaper than getting a cut in the UK ;-) haha. |
| 28th September 2007 Amanda | - From: Friday Night Jiaozi! mmm...jiaozi. that''s really all that's necessary :) |
| 22nd September 2007 Chinese New Year Dragon | Not as smelly as you would think. - From: Just for the Ladies at the Oswegoland Park District… Hi Laurie! The smell in there was actually fine. We did have some trouble with the spices...in our eyes. There was a big fan set up for air circulation and we kept getting a face full of seasonings! In the smell department, I have encountered aromas that have awakened my senses to a whole new world of rancid stink. There is a stinky tofu dish that makes me gag every time I catch a whiff of it. It is fermented and fried and to say that it smells like burning garbage mixed with rotten eggs would be putting it nicely. I can't even walk on the same street when it is being prepared, I have no idea how people eat it. |
| 22nd September 2007 Chinese New Year Dragon | When in Rome... - From: Just for the Ladies at the Oswegoland Park District… It is pretty easy to be disturbed by the animals, but I just try to not think about it. I eat meat all the time at home without batting an eye. Here, they use EVERY part of the animal, so I actually almost feel less guilty about it. |
| 22nd September 2007 Penny | Oh my... - From: Just for the Ladies at the Oswegoland Park District… I think I would become a vegan!!!! |
| 20th September 2007 Carl | er... - From: Just for the Ladies at the Oswegoland Park District… That's really disgusting with the animals, that made me really sad, interesting, but overall sad. |
| 20th September 2007 laurie | cool - From: Just for the Ladies at the Oswegoland Park District… It looks good to me but what did it smell like in there? |
| 20th September 2007 Amy | wow! - From: Just for the Ladies at the Oswegoland Park District… I think you are ready for Survivor now! You can eat anything! |
| 20th September 2007 Ash | I love class nine... - From: Happy Birthday, Class 9! ... but I didn't get any cool party or a tea set!! What the heck!? I guess we know already who the better teacher is. Tell them I say hello!! |
| 20th September 2007 Ash | - From: Home Sweet Home Yeah... it does look really familiar... isn't that odd... |
| 19th September 2007 anna | Fantastic! - From: Oot and Aboot... Hi there - Thanks so much for the updates. So fun to see where you are and what adventures you've found. It looks like a wonderful colorful place full of life, sound and, I'm guessing, wonderful smells around each corner. And, I'm sure there are aromas of other sorts too! Any way this can be sent to those folks who are in Japan, heading towards China? I'm sure they'd love to get a look at what's up for them! Hugs to you and Nick, Anna |
| 10th September 2007 Chinese New Year Dragon | He is indeed Glorious! - From: Happy Birthday, Class 9! I am a big fan. I quote him quite often and there are only a few people that get the references :) |
| 9th September 2007 Max | Eddie Izzard Rules - From: Happy Birthday, Class 9! "Cake or death." "I'll have the cake." "Too bad we're all out. We only had three peices, we didn't think there would be such a rush." "So my choices are OR DEATH?" "Yes." "Alright then I'll have the chicken." "Ah very good sir." |
| 6th September 2007 Cousin T | - From: Just Outside the Gates Cor, you're awesome! i'm so impressed you've been there like 1 week and have all of this posted...great job! love hearing about it |
| 6th September 2007 Amanda | - From: Home Sweet Home Wow...that place looks incredibly familiar...weird! |
| 5th September 2007 Bob Tallitsch | - From: Home Sweet Home Cori: While I did my sabbatical at CCNU I lived where Sarah is living. The apartments look quite similar -- some things improved -- others still their "quaint" style/format as 5 years ago! Your pictures bring back lots of fond memories of my time at CCNU -- enjoy -- it will be a fantastic experience! Love ya Bob |
| 5th September 2007 Carl | :) - From: Just Outside the Gates I like the pictures of the three of you eating your bings, that's that thing to do in China ;) |
