I'll have another

My two year contract at Maple Leaf has been like having a deserved popsicle on a hot day. You buy your popsicle, are really excited to eat it; open it, take your first taste (it is good); then you see a friend, and you start talking and laughing away about something you think is interesting.... la la la la, di do di do di do di do di do and boom.... you look down and like a ton of bricks it hits you that you have eaten your whole popsicle. Can I have another? Sure... a Swiss popsicle. Then, when we are old we can look back on our past and remember hot days with friends and popsicles.

China blogging suspension and WuZaiChaung cone skating








Another arbitrary blogging suspension has come to another arbitrary end. In this zwischen time, I have discovered a new place to spend my evenings. These cats don't just do it for fun, they do it for fun and to get better at it, so I will too! Take a look at the videos.
A week ago, one of the other skaters showed me a picture of me skating in the Kaifaqu paper. Interesting. it would have been more interesting if I could have read what it said about me. I finally got it translated at school and the article says something to the likes of, "Skating at Five Colour City has attracted some foreigners... Sha Sha is a Maple Leaf School history teacher who has lived in Kaifaqu for two years and says she loves skating....". Who says I love skating? Me? I do, it's true, but who told them? And who are they? I may never know.
