Technical Difficulties

OK, so I lied. Due to the Snapfish's lameness, Christina and I have not uploaded the second half of our Yunnan trip. Hopefully we can get it working tomorrow.

Blarg.

Week One, Term Two

Hey hey hey!

Wanted to update the 'ol blogger before climbing into bed so I can wake up before the sun comes out tomorrow (accursed eight o'clock classes!).

Christina and I concluded the second half of our Yunnan trip photos on my Snapfish account. Once again, you can find them here, room code:

Classes this term look like they could be a mixed bag. I was assigned no English majors, the closest being Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language majors. Which means the language skills of my students blows monkey chunks. And they're not exactly loquacious . . .

Anywho, this Pic o' the Week actually came from a couple of weeks ago. It was the end of the Spring Festival and the foreign teachers gathered to set off a few fireworks.

We're Back!

Hellooooooo, peoples! How's it going? Christina and I are back, safe and sound, in Anyang. We actualy returned on the 3rd, but . . . I have been having some technical difficulties with my computer. But, that's mostly fixed now and I'll return to updating the ol' Brain Dump on a (hopefully) regular basis.

Today was the first day of classes for the new term. Had to get up at 6:30am. Not a pretty thing. But I did just have a two-month vacation, so . . . I imagine my complaints fall on mostly deaf ears. . . .

Can you imagine if I'd have died whilst galavanting around the Yunnan province (or if I'd gone rogue) . . . ? You wouldn't have heard anything. The only sign would be no more blog updates. . . . Think about it. . . .

But we did survive, and we had lots of fun. And we posted some of the photos we took on the trip onto my Snapfish public group. Once again, the link is here, and the password is:

Hope you like em! This is only a very small portion of the 500+ photos I took. More to come as I sift through them. But now I'm off to bed because I'm going to try to wake up at 6:15 tomorrow. I expect to snooze. . . .
