| | Hello all. 好久不见! Long time no see.
Xanga is still blocked here in China (in fact a lot of things are due to an upcoming 20th anniversary of a fairly sensitive event involving a square in Beijing) but I managed to get on here through a proxy so here is a quick update on my life.
Erik and I have been working at a kindergarten teaching English since Feb. 2009. We teach there 10 hours a week and supplement our rather low income by teaching a few private classes and small classes at our house. Life is good, and we enjoy the kindergarten much more than our previous jobs working at Inter.
Our dingo Baozi is about a year and a half old, and he loves our new, 3 bedroom apartment on the 22nd floor. We love it too. We have a balcony, 2 bathrooms (one Western and one Chinese) and more cabinets than we know what to do with. Seriously, we have been living here since January and we still have empty cabinets.
We are trying not to accumulate too much "stuff" because we may be moving sometime in the next year across the country to a place called Urumuqi, in Xinjiang province. We would be working in a resort as managers. The project is still waiting for full funding, so we don't know when that will happen, but it is exciting and scary. We would be working with one of China's minority groups, the Uighers.
Ok, must go get ready for a student who will be here any moment, will try to update again soon! |
