hey, soo, first of all i finally got a few pics of the noodle place, and of one of the muslim restuarants i eat at about once a week.. they're not such great pics cause i was trying to be discrete since there were people eating who probably wouldn't want me to take their picture, lol, but as soon as i figure out how to ask if i can take a pic, and to tell them that i want to take pics to show you guys..i'll put up some better ones, haha. second, i went to the movies here for the [View Full Entry]

christmas-ing Asia » China » Jiangsu » Zhangjiagang
ha. so i'll start with last week. on monday carol very vaguely mentioned that there would be some kind of dinner for foreign teachers that thursday... then on thursday i found out that it was actually just for foreigners living in zhangjiagang in general (not just teachers) and that we were to meet at the front gate and someone from the school would drive us to the hotel where the dinner was. we then found out about an hour before that it was a kinda fancy dinner and that we should get dressed up. i wore black pants and the short [View Full Entry]

penpal success! : ) Asia » China » Jiangsu » Zhangjiagang
so, i'm back in the office! soo annoying..not only do we not have the internet, but we have no electricity!! they've been doing some insane work..like digging up tons of the sidewalk and stuff near our apt building, and then today some guy accidently cut our wires!! it happened around 12:30, right before I had to go teach so I just left, thinking that by the time I got back they would have fixed it. (i didn't know they actually cut off our electricity, haa). when i got back though steve said he had talked to carol, and she said it [View Full Entry]

hey..lots of fun this weekend! started out with our bus ride around 5:30 to Changzhou. we've figured out how to read the bus tickets by now which is nice so we know we know exactly what to do, and where to go..and there were only about 5 people on the bus besides us which was funny..and there was a funny chinese movie with english subtitles playing which was very exciting..except that they started playing the movie from the middle, lol. we got to Changzhou and met Alesia and some of her other American friends around 7pm..and then we tagged along with [View Full Entry]

quick update  Asia » China » Jiangsu » Zhangjiagang
so yesterday and today have been kind of crazy... we were originally going to visit tiffany and michelle in Xuzhou a few weeks ago but for whateevr reason it didn't work out..then we planned on going this weekend, but last week they found out that they had some kind of competition that they had to judge..so they wouldn't really be able to hangout with us if we came. so we planned on going next weekend, until tiffany and michelle found out yesterday that the competition has been postponed until next week.. so kinda last minute, we decided to go this weekend.

soo, once again i haven't written in awhile..things here have been pretty routine though..aside from the fact that we now have internet in our apt. which is amazing!! of course now that i don't have to plan to go to the office to put up pics and stuff..i'm just lazy and never do, lol. anyway, my students have been pretty crazy as usual, lol..but i think i'm starting to be able to control them a bit more and figure out things that they'll actually do..or at least i'm getting used their craziness, lol. I've also finally gotten to know some of [View Full Entry]

hello..haven't written on here for awhile so i should have lots of stories, but of course i forget most of them....haha, anyway we went to Wuxi with Fun Shi Ja last weekend which was fun. She told us that she was gonna drive us there, but it actually turned out that her parents drove us, and then they visited her aunt who lives there while we shopped. Neither of them really speak any English so we weren't able to really talk to them wish is kind of a shame, but it was cool to meet them anyway. It was about an [View Full Entry]
