Hmm well my feet hurt from blisters, I've seen the sun about twice since I've been here, there is pointless drama, but I am still managing to have a wonderful time in China. I have met some people that I don't think I will ever forget. In Chengdu, the pander bears were so adorable, except the babies, they look like little rats. I have noticed more and more the way our cultures are different. I absolutely love English corner. The students are so nice and just love to talk. I noticed that asking about girlfriends and boyfriends causes complete shyness. They laugh so easily and you can talk to them about almost anything. The food fair was a blast, and I think that Brittany did a fantastic job at putting everything together. The Chinese students were like vultures to our hot dogs and baked beans. They were coming from all angles to grab our food. I guess they liked it. Visiting the stone carvings was interesting minus the bus ride with Jermaine leaning on my arm. The carvings each told a story and were really interesting to look at. I have been noticing more and more how lucky I am to have what I do at home. Not having to walk up hill, having Wawa, pizza, cheese fries, toilets, and the simple little things have made me really happy to have what I do. I really like China, but I can say that in the past week I miss home more than I have the entire time I've been here.
