Shockwaves

Hello again, long time huh. Give me a chance to explain ... I haven't been keeping up my blog as I would like to but by no fault of my own. Recently there was an earthquake off the coast of Taiwan severing some underwater cables that stretch over to the mainland. The cables provide China with internet sites and phone communications from the westren world. Since the cables were cut 2 weeks ago by a 7.2 powered earthquake my ties to the rest of the world have been limited. The phones where brought back on days after the quake but the internet has been pretty slow on coming back to normal. So please forgive me, and I shall keep the wires full of infromation for you ...
So New Years's is past and all of you are probably ready to return to work and school, back to the grind. I'm Back into the grind after a much needed 4 day holiday for New Year, and i'm preparing my students for there coming examinations. Yes that's right grade 3 students have full exams in English, Chinese and Math. So I have my work cut out for me, to make sure they do real good on there examinations. But I do have experiance so it shouldn't be a problem. But what keeps me happy is the 1 month we get for holiday for Chinese new year which starts at the end on Januray. I'm looking forward to it, it shoudl be a good time, mom is coming and I will show her around Wuhan, then off to Shanghai, then Beijing, then ending off in Yunnan province looking down from tiger leaping gorge ...
So, barring anymore earthquakes I should be spitting information on more frequently and i'm also going to start teaching you a little chinese too ...
