Party Girls

-
Me and Kristen (making a kissy face) downtown, waiting to enter one of the clubs where we celebrated her birthday this weekend. It's been quite a weekend, I've gone to bed at 5:00 AM two nights in a row. I'm too old for this, I need sleep! I start school this week, so it was a nice send off weekend for my plunge back into the daily grind.


P.S., I wore the flats en transit, then changed into the 4-inch heels for dancing etc. Thanks for the advice! It worked well. My feet are sore today, but I looked fashionable, and we all know that's what counts!

You look great and you are never too old for fun with your friends. It's what keeps you young!

You look great! I went to bed at 5am this morning as well, but then needed a 4 hour nap this evening and am going BACK to bed in an hour. So sad, lol.

Yes, I am glad you took my advice about the shoes! A great way to have comfort and sex appeal once you arrive at the destination! Your pictures look fun and there is nothing wrong with clubbing for a few nights..you can sleep when you are old (really old!)...:)

Sounds like a fun night! You look great.

I am a huge, huge fan of 4 inch heels. Although, I must confess that my ideal heel height is 2 and 3/4. Yes, I am a nerd.

I know (just about) how old you really are and you don't look it girl.

And if that's the picture of trouble, I'll just have to step into the middle and break it up, it's a tough job but someone has to do it...

Quick Notes

I cut my hair today, it now looks like Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction. It took two hours, it was the most meticulous haircut I have ever received. He was amazing. I wish I could take him with me to Chongqing. Tomorrow I move into a hotel with the other volunteers in downtown Chengdu. We have a few days of meetings and then I move to Chongqing on Wednesday. It's about 4 hours away by train. Our new school helps us move, I am crossing my fingers they bring a car or some strong men to help! My suitcases are hella heavy. We had a banquet last night for our host families. The power went out so we ate in the dark, and then we decided to move to a restaurant next door where dinner started all over again. It was a very China evening. I will post pics asap.

This One Time I Thought I Was Really Hot (But It Was Just The HVAC Talking)

-
Back in San Antonio, my friend Stacey had asked me to pick her up from the airport. It was full summer, and for those of you who haven't been in San Antonio in the summertime, you know that expression 'hot as an oven'? Well, I like to say San Antonio summers are 'hot as downwind from an exhaust pipe.' (Which means when you actually are downwind from an exhaust pipe, things get really unpleasant.) It's quite common for there to be a temperature difference of 35-40 degrees between indoor and outdoor air during a San Antonio summer. True story: I had a small heater at my work desk and turned it on in the summer, not winter, because the air conditioning was on so high in our building I froze to death at my desk. So anyway, I go straight from the gym to the airport to pick up Stacey. It's 10 pm but still around 100 degrees outside. Inside, it's a balmy 60 or so. Gotta give those tourists a false sense of comfort! I'm pacing a bit in the baggage area wa...

Really?!?? AKA, Cultural Mishaps in China, They Will Happen

-
After judging a speech competition all morning at a school that is not my own, I was asked to hand out the second place prizes. They also asked some other teachers, but I missed the details because they only gave them in Chinese and I didn’t understand everything. I was only supposed to hand out 4 of 12 prizes. But the prize girl kept handing me certificates, so I kept handing them out, while the audience laughed at me. I didn’t know what was going on, so I just kept going until someone stopped me. Later, I was interviewed for the school news, on video, and the girl interviewing me asked me this question: Random Girl: “When you made the mistake and everyone was laughing at you, what did you feel inside?” Really, random girl? Really? On camera you ask me this? Really? Two years ago, this would have devastated me. Now, I just have to laugh and say, “Oh well! Such is life in China.” Cultural mistakes will be made. It happens. For the record, I told her I felt that it is maybe go...
