Teaching English

I really enjoy teaching english. It's satisfying:). I'm starting to get my own possie of Chinese friends here in Jinghong. I can't remember their Chinese names and give them all English Nicknames, which probably sounds horrible, but Li and Jung are easy names...it get's really complicated afterwards. A few nights ago we went partying at KTV. We rented a room with 8 people and sang Kareoke, then we could go downstairs and dance in a Club. There, I met some other foreigners travelling here. I met this dude named Laurent and we met up yesterday for a date. It was really romantic actually, we walked around town and then when we were on the bridge at night, over looking the Mekong river, fireworks errupted in the sky and shared the night and the reflection on the river with the full moon. We had our first kiss while watching the fireworks and then each had an hour massage on the river side by this lady that had a bed set up:) and it only cost 10yuan! (7.5yuan=1dollar.) It's official, I have a weakness for frenchies. Laurent is from a french colony of France in the Carribean sea. His dad grew up on Reunion island off the South-East coast of Africa and his mom is black and originated from an island in the Carribean. It's so cute though, he has light skin and curly red hair that feels rough like black people's hair. Yesterday I also met a couple of Americans Sarah from Arkansas and Kirsten from Alabama, who are studying here in Jinghong. Right now though they're going travelling since it's Spring Festival, or Chinese New Years. We'll meet up in March when they're back:).
