Chinese New Year

Image
Today was the last day of school before the Chinese New Year holiday. We had a plethora of activities for the kids and teachers to participate in. Here are a few images and videos from the day.  The videos can be found here: Chinese Drumming Dragon Dance Assembly SLT dressed in traditional Chinese clothes Red lanterns  Chinese Dragon Dance Chinese Brides (male teachers) waiting to be chosen by the Groom (Our CEO Dr. Weston) The brides are revealed! Chinese drumming  2014 is the year of the Horse and there are decorations for sale everywhere. James and I bought ourselves a pair of stuffed animal horses from the local store. They are terribly cute! We have very few plans for the holidays as we are in desperate need of a rest. We're going to do a little sightseeing but mostly spend some time in our pjs playing video games. A nice way to spend the holiday I think.  Happy New Year! 新年快乐!  ( Xīn nián kuài lè)

Plot Twist!

2013 was quite a year of change for me. The year started out in quite the worst way I could ever imagine and at times I wasn't sure it was ever going to get better.  Life has a strange way of working out though and the second half of the year has seen my life change in incredible ways. Looking back I can't quite believe all the things that have happened. I wouldn't be where I am now without my boyfriend James. He has made me happier than I ever thought possible and understands my weird and wonderful moods.  So roll on 2014! We have some exciting times ahead of us and I can't wait!
