We Made It.
Ah, a home.
Things that make us super happy.
1. Xiamen is beautiful.
2. The weather is great. (Feels like I am back home.)
3. Our apartment is wonderful. It is probably the best one we have had since coming to China.
4. The school is clean, new, and only a hop jump and a skip away from our front door.
5. The staff is very welcoming and kind.
6. We actually have students to teach, even if there are only 4 or so.
7. Did I mention that Xiamen is beautiful?
I think we are really going to like this place, at least right up until the typhoon comes and washes us away. Heh. : )
I’ve got tons of things to post, and I will get them up soon. Promise. I just have work to do now. Imagine that. It’s been awhile since I’ve been a teacher. I haven’t worked since January 15th or so. It’s going to take time getting used to the whole “I am a teacher” bit again, but I do know that I will enjoy this much better than Fuyang’s Yong Xing Middle School. That is for damn sure.
See,I told u,Xiamen is a beautiful city.I’m really glad u enjoy ur life there.In general,the cities on the south of china r much cleaner than the cities on the north.

Hey guys. You make Xiamen sound like a very alluring place. I might have to make a trip down.
I can’t remember how I found your blog. I did one of two things;
1. found it on the all encompassing, http://www.chinabloglist.org or…
2. I followed links by clicking on peoples “blogrolls”
It looks like you are using a blogspot blog which are blocked and unblocked at unregular intervals. I use http://www.blog.com which seem to never have problems with the the chinese firewall.
