I am gonna start out with an event from last nite. On the way to the house, driving, we started out with the driver, Sparky, me, Leianna, this woman, Amanda, a little girl, who I figured was the daughter, and another girl named May. So...we all started out. Then first, we dropped off May. Then minutes later we dropped off Amanda, but the little girl stayed. I was like, um....ok. The we went for another 10 minutes and pulled up to an allewyway for houses and Sparky and the little girl disappeared for about 2 minutes. Then Sparky came back. I was like, ok. This is fine. Just dropping off people. But then he started to pick up people and drop them off. This confused the crap outta me..I mean, was he a bus. After leaving the alleyway, we went about 10 minutes, picked up this girl Emily. Drove with her for about 20 minutes where we picked up Owen and Mountain, but dropped Emily off...at the same place. Then we drove to where Leianna was staying, dropped her off with Mountain to show her the place and I went to the house with Owen. It was a wierd trip. Quite humorous.
So anywho. I went to bed. Lots of horn honking into the wee hours. It never stopped. I am gonna wear my earplugs tonite. When I showed up there were 2 other teachers awake. Peter from California, and some other guy, from Canada. I chatted with them for all of 1 minute before I went to bed.
I wake up, feeling rested, despite all the horn honking that went on throughout the whole nite...dont chinese ever sleep? I am gonna sleep with my earplugs tonite.
I woke up, and this other guy, Nick, from Ottawa was around. He was packing up because he was headed to Inner Mongolia for a few months. He was excited. He took me out to breakfast and showed me around a bit and we came back here where I began typing all these recent posts and fotos. Then around 12, Emily, the girl from the trip home last nite, showed up with Clyde, this other teacher, and we all went to this nice place for lunch. I was trying to get a feel for their opinions and the all seem to love it. Nick is going to Inner Mongolia and Clyde signed a contract for his 4th year.
Well, I just typed up and posted tons of junk. All of you are asleep and cant chat with you online, so I am gonna go try and find something to do. later gators.
