So I only have one class left and after that I am free for the weekend! And I cannot wait. My classes have been great but teaching is tiring and the heat is exhausting. Today I messed up one of my classes by forgetting to bring the correct document, which led to a moment of pure panic swiftly followed by a genius moment.
Wielding my USB pen (mightier than the sword) I plugged it into the computer and turned on Dr. Horribles Sing Along Blog! As you can imagine the class improved dramatically and the students, though slightly mystified seemed to love it.
They told me that I looked like Nathan Fillion which made me nothing short of ecstatic.
There is nothing better than having a whole class of chinese girls singing "a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do" at the top of their lungs! I had such a good day today but working eight till six in the blistering heat is exhausting.
I didn't know that a human body could sweat this much!
On Saturday I am going to get a printer and possibly a push-bike.
I hope that you are all having fun without me, I am beginning to miss home, particularly the food. Chinese food is great but Jesus I want a roast dinner!

Jason I can imagine being likened to Nathan Fillion did wonders for your ego, however, I'm sorry to say that they were lying to you to get better grades. At most maybe a quasimodo-esq bizzaro twin of the great Captain Malcom Reynolds. I hope that my usual job of bursting your balloon has translated to this medium. :-p

Sue Pickering Whose Nathan Fillian? How come you are working 08.00 - 18.00? How many days are you actually doing? Still can't believe you are in China and coping so well!
