The big country

There are some things that trouble me, but I can't for the life of me think of a single thing to be concerned about right now.
I would love to tell you about everything, but that will have to wait.
All of my preconceptions of this country are changing and not only do I wish I could afford to stay here for another month or so writing essays on my thoughts (and getting paid for doing so) , but for the third time in my life the language barrier is causing me to go a little crazy. I will tell you all about it when I get back on Saturday

It must be great to get away from the ho hum of everyday life. I envy you. I do hope you will be posting the pictures not only of your trip, but your Halloween party too. Can't wait to see the excited faces of grossed out children and adults that attended. As well as the beautiful and exotic countryside of China.
ciao for now

Sounds like you're having a wonderful time in spite of the language barrier.

Mona said...

which Saturday were you talking about?...the one gone by or the one that is about to come??
