So, before we start on this whole new adventure, I wanted to wrap up our time in Chengdu with a post about our last week here. I mentioned last time that these few weeks have been a total emotional roller coaster, but the last few days have definitely been the most intense. I’m excited, sad, stressed, and relaxed all at once. It really depends on the moment.

Hey y’all.
Didn’t want to entirely abandon my blog this week, but truthfully not too much has been going on with us. After a jam packed CNY vacation we did a few days of recovering before the reality that we’re leaving SUPER soon started to really kick in. Since then we’ve been trying to get our sh*t together and get ready to go!

Hello! Kev and I just got back yesterday from spending 3 days in our good friend Rita’s hometown for Chinese New Year. We have been so incredibly busy this holiday season but it has been a whirlwind of fun times and good memories.

Hey y’all, sorry if you’ve had any trouble with my comment box/captcha situation– I’ve gotten several emails/comments about it this week but it should be all updated and good to go by now! For a blog with little traffic we have been bombarded with spam, so we’ve had to take measures to fight back. Sorry for any inconvenience!

By the time this gets posted my contract with my school will be up. So, I figured now is a good time to share some of my thoughts and feelings about my working experience.

Hey friends & fam! I think I’m finally ready to start writing about the present again after having spent months talking about all the fun stuff we did when my family visited. I’m glad we were able to get all of that written down as those were some of my favorite memories of my time in China. However, time is FLYING by and I have to use these next few weeks to write about all things Chengdu before we leave!
乐山大佛 (Leshan Giant Buddha)
Hey, y’all! I want to throw up one more post from when my grandparents were here and write about our visit to Leshan. The last Saturday before they left we decided to head to the Giant Buddha for the afternoon. Kevin was unfortunately unable to come because he had to work.

Heeeeeeeeey neglected blog of mine! Apologies- last week I was way too preoccupied with being stressed about my demo lesson for the parents to update. To the point of panic, actually. It was a bit ridiculous. I definitely need to work on my stage fright/fear of being judged in the near future. It has gone beyond normal jitters and is bordering on disabling. I am just discovering all of my weaknesses here in China, aren’t I? Fun!
