Blogging Again Ne Hao. How are trix y'all? Things are ok for us out here in China, with just over 7 weeks left until the end of our contract some more interesting updates from Vietnam will soon be coming your way. For now however you are going to have to put up with life in China for the pair of us over the past few months. Today you're going to get a quick run down of our colleagues, teachers day and what we got up to before the visit of my wonderful parents. Before ...

... having Jasper in a live 3D video feed on stage with us. It was decided I would have to be the junky in and out of Rehab tattooed rapper Robbie/Jay style member. Aske is the spiritual one and Martin is the Gay one. Jasper is going to be the intellectual stylish one. We hit upon a great band name and our entire story. We are Phan2Sea and we are here to stay, before a brief break up and then a reconciliation tour making more money than the Backstreet Boys and Take That combined. The ...

... As we stepped off the bus, we noticed that the temps were quite cool and I was surprised to see that the guy at the horse trekking place was wearing a heavyish jacket. I was now undecided as to whether or not I wanted to do the horse trek, as I didn't bring the proper clothing, and there was no way I was going to go and buy some warm clothing just so I could go horseback riding. I decided it would be best to wander around and go for a bite to eat before making ...

... like only 5 weeks until reality kicks back in. Luckily I have another semester in Spain and the summer in Europe (assuming I can figure out a way to finance it all) so that should help fend off the real world for a little longer. Five weeks is so short in terms of how much I can do and see and learn. This experience has gone by so quickly. That adds the sadness to my melancholy mood and makes me wish I could stay longer and get more out of it. However, another part ...

... room, and they kept tearing down the black cloth. I gave up trying to ask them in Chinese to please not do that and started shouting, "Get out! Stop it! Go the other way!" in English every time I saw them doing it. I knew they had already all been told in Chinese by Jim, so I had absolutely no patience for their willful ignorance. At 12:00 pm, Derek asked if he could take an hour off to go on a lunch date with someone. Since I figured everyone needed to eat and I wasn't a dictator, I ...

... were given out for some notable architectural projects and we had a multiple course Chinese banquet! We had to keep track of the courses so we could pace ourselves! This morning started early so that I could make my 8am flight to Shanghai. The airport was modern, but no air conditioner? I thought to myself, I'm back in China now...not Hong Kong anymore. The cab ride was a little bit over an hour. The airport is a bit out of town so it took a while before we saw the massive outline ...

... down. It was amazing - they brought us jasmine tea in clear tea pots that they placed over candles to keep the tea warm. Next to our table was a much larger pot of boiling water kept over hot coals. We were served tons of fruit and noodles and rice, which quickly filled us up, much to our surprise. As soon as we finished one plate of fruit, they'd bring us another one. As soon as we'd pour some tea, they'd fill it up with more water. It really was very relaxing and a lot of fun! We ...

... no one can, that we're the measure by which other countries should be judged. I feel like I see this attitude frequently in many places. It is easier to set a limit to what people can do rather than set a goal. Limits make people feel like failure is okay, a goal makes people strive for something that may very well be impossible. However, without that goal they will settle for far less. The issue currently is Beijing preparing for the 2008 Olympic Games - should the government ...
