I love being a jiejie!

I just love the cups they put the tea in!! Tee hee hee!!

When I came back from picking up some dinner, my 

little buddy was in the lobby. {Doing the splits on the couch actually! haha!}

I heard her telling someone else that we had been colouring last night.

She then asked:

"Jiejie, can we colour again tonight?" 

I told her that I had an exam tonight and so I couldn't.

She replied

"Ok! Tomorrow then!"

Once again I had to tell her that I had another exam tomorrow night.

"What night DON'T you have a test?"

She said.

I felt bad that I had to say that the next night I was 

free was Saturday. Even more so when she said 

she didn't know if she was going to be around.

But, we decided that the next time I was free and I 

saw her in the lobby, we would colour. 

I can't tell you how happy I am that she

has two parents who love her so much

and who are even giving her a little sibling!

It's nice to have a little buddy again, though! 

She is too stinkin cute I tell ya!

{I will get a picture with her as soon as I can!}

#ItsTheLittleThings

There is no place around here called Donut King. Yet....I can still get tea in a cup with the name! 

I <3 China!

When talking about my everyday life, I feel like I am pretty good with my

Chinese listening skills. 

But as far as class goes, Listening is always one of my 

worst subjects.

Tonight we had a Listening Exam. 

Our teacher was sick all day and so she was late

to the classroom! :( 

I loved what she did with it though!

She started asking the students if they were all upset that she was

late and how what they thought about it and all.

As soon as they saw where she was going with it they

all changed their tune from 

"We were upset and thought it was bad"

to

"We were very happy! Its no problem at all!"

{Though they had been saying that she should give everyone

extra points or at least high marks to make up for waiting on her!}

She then said "See how I feel when you are late to class everyday?"

She also pointed out a few people and said

"Its so nice to see you finally! This is like, what, the second time you've been to class?!"

She pointed to each person that makes a habit of skipping class, to tell them she

was glad they showed up to the exam but that they should start coming to 

see her teach! {She did it in a funny way, which I think sometimes

I think the students like a bit too much! Fame of any

kind is better than no fame, right? So they 

are known as the student who doesn't show up...their name is known!} 

While we waiting, I tried to help focus my mind where it should be.

I know, Im a grown up, I should have learned long ago not to draw on myself, but

oh well!
