| 17th June 2006 ally | audio book shop in macau - From: Flavors And Sounds of Hong Kong I heard there's this great audio book store in Macau but I just can't find it. Any clue? |
| 1st June 2006 Allison Lourash | You Rock! - From: MY TRIP TO GUANGZHOU Hi Christy- Hang in there. I really enjoy reading your blog and sorry to hear about your experiences in China. You are a very strong person and all the individuals you come in contact with be better for it. On a side note I am learning braille through Hadley- online! I have gone through one section and it is pretty cool. |
| 28th May 2006 Kendra | - From: MY TRIP TO GUANGZHOU Hello, Christie. I am a local HKU student, and I have enjoyed reading your blog. It's such an eye opener to learn about the different treatments you have encountered as a disabled in Guangzhou and Hong Kong. Sorry about the terrible experiences. I guess Hong Kong and China still have a long way to go in terms of policy and education huh? However, at the same time, I am also proud of those throughtful people you have encountered in Hong Kong and to know that HKU has someone like you to be doing something so wonderful for the world and the disabled. Way to go! And what a life! Good luck to your work. |
| 15th April 2006 Tony Ferguson | read your blog - From: SOCIALIZATION SCENE HEATING UP! Hi Krystie, I was looking for a Ruby Tuesday coupon and somehow got your blog. Sounds like you are having a good time in Hong Kong. Nice to talk to you the other day. Good luck on your dissertation. Tony Ferguson, University of Hong Kong librarian ferguson@hkucc.hku.hk |
| 16th March 2006 Kristen | Thank You - From: Homesick blues Hi, thanks for writing about your dog, both in theblog and in email. I know that writing about that must be very hard and stressful in a way, but it helped to make the whole experience of guiding very real for me at a time when I needed that. Take care, Kristen |
| 13th February 2006 Jan Anderson | My daughter - From: Homesick blues What a wonderful person you are to have such insight with Jill. I'm sure she misses you as much as you do her, but she is counting the days and will be just as excited as you will be when you meet at O'Hare. Love Mom |
| 12th February 2006 Sarah | Missing you....... - From: Homesick blues Hi Christie! Thanks for the update. I'm sorry to hear you're missing Jill so. I can only try to imagine what it's like. It does my heart good to hear how well you're doing besides the homesickness. I am so proud of you and am still amazed at what you're accomplishing in your life. I hope you take the time to contemplate all that you do. Love, your sister |
| 4th February 2006 Sujai | So cool - From: Meeting Colleagues and Learning my way Around Christie - this is a GREAT description of your travels (and travails :-)). I remember thinking that Hong Kong airport was particularly well designed for the blind - because the tops and bottoms of stairways were textured and tiled differently... Hope the subway and other facilities are as good! Didn't realize you had a GPS now. Am sure that's a neat thing to have. Is it an attachment for your BrailleNote or a standalone thing? Keep writing. - Sujai |
