The Monday of all Monday's

This past Monday was a experience of my life. It all started out great and ended with a bamm!! After teaching all of us girls decided to go and buy bikes finally, after saying that we would ever since the day we got here. When we found a bike shop we all picked a bike and decided to name them, i could not think of one so i waited. While I was testing out the bikes I broke off 1 peddle on the bike I felt like a idiot. Half of us decided to go to another school to see if he has mail on our way there I brok both of my peddles off, talk about a crappy bike. This was all just the start of my little adventure. It was my friend Lindsey's birthday so we all decided to take her out to dinner to this italian place, called Little Italy. Mandy and I decided to go and get Her a cake from the bakery and bring it to the resturant. After we bought the cake we strapped it down on my bike and met the girls there. The food was amazing, after all of our food the cook made a free pizza which was to die for and brought us out what looked like little glasses of lemonade. Of course Keegan, Mandy and I were the first to drink them. My throat started to burn and Mandy spat hers out. Come to find out they brought us all Shots of alcohol. That was my first drink of alcohol in my life. I wanted to die, it was so funny they just assumed that we drank, and we were like there only customers so they wanted us to come back. Afterwards we were way to full to eat the cake so we decided to put it back on my bike and go home. On our way home i hit the curb totally wrong and crashed on the sidewalk. It was so funny the girls came over and was like... "THE CAKE THE CAKE... " they totally forgot about me the one on the ground dying! jk we got home and the cake was not that messed up and we ate it.. it was so good and the best part was there were no beans in it!! After that everything i touched broke or fell... so we all decided it was best that I just do not touch anything!!! It was so funny that all of this happened in one day! It was really funny and crazy to look back to... the kids are doing great and they just keep getting cuter and cuter! Today i taught them... OBAMA STINKY.... they always say they want to go to America and see the OBAMA! it is so funny!

Womens Appreciation Day!

Well so it has been a really long time since I have written anything, and I apologize. Lately we have been in such a routine of the same thing almost everyday. We teach, teach, teach, then go home and do our own thing for a few hours. All of the girls take naps every day, and it makes me way jealous cause i can not sleep at night, and then i can not nap. Oh well it gives me more time in my Day! Yesterday March 6th was China's Women Appreciation Day. My girls Raychel, Mandy, and Keegan performed in a fashion dedicated to the women of Xiolan. It was so fun we all got dressed up for one of the first times in China. Then the rest of us girls hopped on a bus and went to a place right around the corner from us. (it was just ironic that we rode a bus) When we got there we were each greeted with roses and water bottles. We sat down and the show begun. It was way cool to see all of the chinese women in there clothes, there fashion screams Jadie all over it. Nothing really matches and it is just way fun. The girls got to wear Chinese Dresses like old fashion ones, they looked so pretty and white :) I can not express how excited i was to see these three beautiful girls that are my friend up there representing us so well. These girls had to have some major courage to stand up and do something like this. My favorite part was when they were on stage we were screaming so loud and cat calling them, if you do not know this chinese people don't really yell or even clap. So while we were taking pictures of them and yelling people were turning and taking pictures of us. We always think that after a while the chinese people would get use to seeing us, NOT TRUE! It was a great experience and i think America should adopted Womens Day so we can do these in America.
