to begin.

thank you (mom) for being patient. this is my blog for the time being, because i am unable to access my normal blog while i am in china.  
i have officially been in xining for two weeks now, and i am having a really amazing time. there is so much going on here, with teaching and the olympics, and just the bustle of living in a chinese city of two million. i am learning the ins and outs of the busses, as i have finally procured a high tech bus pass, and when i have time i just jump on a bus to see where it goes. i have also been taking a lot of motorcycle taxi rides when i find myself stranded on the outskirts of town.
there is much less shock coming here this time than last time, and i feel like i am really really living here. it took a few days for that to sink in, but now i am excited about it.  i am also remarkably tired from working and i am heading to bed. 
i'll write soon!
love you.
