Since the Chinese firewall blocks sites such as Google, Gmail, and Facebook, it'll be difficult for me to communicate with people back in the states about what I'll be experiencing. Thus, I'm going to attempt keeping this blog going (though I'm not usually the best at doing this type of thing-- I even to tend to fail at remembering to write in my journal). Anyway, the point of the matter is that for anyone who would like to read about my experiences there, this will be a good place to look.
Oh, and since I did the same thing last time, I'm just going to add on to what I had before. :)
I'm super excited to be going back to China, though I'm curious and a little nervous about how this trip will be different from the last time. In fact, I already know multiple differences that will have quite a big impact on this trip. For instance, I'll be in a bigger city area with only a 2 hour train ride from Shanghai. Also, I'll be teaching in a primary school rather than a middle/high school. Furthermore, I'm not going with anyone that I know and will also be the only teacher at my school (as far as I know). That means, I probably won't have 2 other teachers with me just below my apartment. But it'll all be a good experience for me and I'm kind of glad that it will be so different so that I won't compare the two all the time (though I'm sure there will be some of that at the beginning).
Well, I've probably rambled enough so I'm gonna go now. Yup.
