Slowly coming to the terms that I'll be leaving the country soon. There's just a few things that need to be done. I just got back from an overnight meeting in another city for a trip to Japan that immediately follows the China trip. HELLO JETLAG CITY. It's a 13 hour flight so that's what? 13 albums or 3 books or 100s of bad puns that Rebecca is gonna have to live thru. MUAHAHAHA. My bag is actually mostly packed! Most of the daily stuff I'll get in China!
I bought a book today that has pictures of Canada from Newfoundland to B.C. It should be pretty helpful to tell the students about Canada! I'm still pretty nervous about the language barrier but I've had a few chances to practice my Mandarin lately!
In 4 days I'll be on a plane and on a new adventure! Can it just be next week? Ahhh!
新 年 快 乐 ! Happy Chinese New Year everyone!
Me and Rebecca go to weekly meetings for China now. We've met all 17 of the students going to China with us. They seem pretty cool! I just wanna hop on that plane already! But then again, how excited can one be for a 14 hour flight. Ahh, me and Rebecca are already planning what movies to download to watch during the flight. We'll survive somehow!
In
our meetings they told us to bring something from Canada to show them
Canadian culture. But, I'm not your typical Canadian. I don't like
hockey or maple syrup. However, I do say 'eh' a heck of a lot. At the
moment I have no idea what to bring from Canada... photos for sure but
what sort of...stuff? Meanwhile, Rebbecca isn't even legally Canadian!
What a pair we are...
We're going to a celebration for Chinese New Year this weekend. It should be lot's of fun! I can't wait to see the performances and eat Chinese food with my friends!
新 年 快 乐
再见,
Jen
