Settled in Shanghai

Just noticed Issy's sign off of XOXO- definatley a result of too much gossip girl! We bought a load of DVDs today- lots of old classics and some new ones. Frida, Casablanca, Pulp Fiction, One flew over the Cuckoos nest, Mamma Mia and 2 of my faves for Christmas time, It's a wonderful life and the Sound of music. I promised myself I'm not going to buy anymore until I've watched all of these! We also managed (finally) to get wireless today. Our landlord's friend came and installed it at noon, and we became increasingly frustrated as all the new router seemed to do was not allow us to use the internet...

but at around 11pm it seemed to work and we started skype conversations lasting till 1.30am. I saw my dad make the dinner via webcam and got to see my kitty kat too :D I think it's crazy how I'm 5000miles away and can still see people in the UK, I love it!

 

As Issy says, we've started teaching in the last week, and so far I'm really enjoying it! The pay is amazing and it's not a lot of effort. To be honest, I really enjoy it, although I feel sorry for the kids cos they have so much pressure on them. We've also been eating out (a lot) and are thinking about joining a crazy Chinese fitness centre with dance/yoga/taichi classes. Anyways, enough for now cos it's very late and I have early class boooooooo
