Sorry for the Radio Silence. I’m Still Here

How times flies. Has it really been almost three weeks since my last entry? Whoopsie.
I’d like to blame my friends and my social life. They’ve been keeping me plenty busy.

One of my former students (who was a sophmore my first year in China) lives in Xiamen so we got to catch up with each other.
Couchsurfing in Xiamen has a really active community.
There has been a lot of fun, especially with these ladies.

I’d also like to blame classes, and random stuff I need to do.

I broke a tooth when I was in America and I finally found a decent dentist and how to get there. Because I’m new I gotta kind new doctors and dentists to deal with my many ailments. And it takes time.
I also participated in Nanowrimo. 50,000 words in one month!

I’d also like to blame a recent trip I took to Hong Kong. We had sports meeting day (no classes) so I had 4 days off.  I went to Hong Kong to see some friends!

I met Ray, a Singaporean, last winter in Thailand. We met again in Hong Kong and ate dim sum together.
Also in Hong Kong, I got to hang out with students spanning several years. Emma, (on the left) and Sara (next to me) graduated last year and are now in Hong Kong getting a masters degree. Danlee (in the middle) graduated 4 years ago and we've been good friends since then. The two younger students didn't know Danlee but with a shared background (and a shared former foreign teacher) we all got along amazingly and had a super fun dinner.

On my way back from Hong Kong I went to Shenzhen (the border city) to visit another friend. I felt so lucky that in just a few short days I got to see so many friends from so many different parts of my life.

I’d like to blame all of that. But I can’t. It all comes down to good old fashioned laziness. bad Becky *shakes finger at self.*

    Thanks, I am happy these days! I’m missing my friends from Lin’an and Hangzhou but the move was a VERY good thing for me.
