(3.30.23) 1) long long day. Woke up early and had breakfast before my morning online meeting. Also I saw off my friend who was visiting and ordered a cab early in the morning for him to continue on his trip before returning to the states. Then I went into work early to tackle some errands before our weekly teachers meeting 2) after meeting, I did some lesson planning and had some snacks before my 2 evening classes, one of which was an open door lesson again 3) after finishing classes, I ordered #都城 for my dinner; ate it while tackling some work and then returned home. I then also did some more lesson planning before taking a shower and calling it a night **Lesson(s) learned: N/A #APinGZ #iphone12promax #apiphone12promax #wanderlust #travelbuggotmeagain #livingabroad #workingabroad #teachingoverseas #covid19 #ilovetotakepicsofmyfood #march #thursday #thursdayfunday #donnerstag #guangzhou #china #广州 #中国 #星期四 #三月 #廣州 #中國 (at Guangzhou, China) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqaztH-vLSJYVdKyuFEiCoENgtoMUEjcqxxgDo0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

(3.28.23) 1) slept in a bit before getting up to start my day. Luckily it didn’t rain in the morning so I quickly swung by Aeon and did my weekly grocery run before returning home 2) grabbed some McDonald’s on the way home for lunch and then napped and relaxed in the afternoon 3) my friend @dannydoh , whom I haven’t seen in ages, swung by Guangzhou for a quick visit so I picked him up and we all went to have dim sum for dinner near Beijing Road 4) after dinner, we strolled along Beijing Road and walked along Zhongshan Road back home. We wrapped up the evening with some Charlie Tea to wind down **Lesson(s) learned: N/A #APinGZ #iphone12promax #apiphone12promax #wanderlust #travelbuggotmeagain #livingabroad #workingabroad #teachingoverseas #covid19 #ilovetotakepicsofmyfood #march #tuesday #tuesdayfunday #dienstag #guangzhou #china #广州 #中国 #星期二 #三月 #廣州 #中國 (at Guangzhou, China) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqViWuWP8lkNvj7ouOlqrCOZntqOoilzAsJv8o0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

(3.27.23) 1) very long and tiring day. Despite sleeping in a bit to recover from yesterday’s long hull, still tired. Got up and had breakfast; did some work and then went into the office early to start my day 2) did some work and then ordered afternoon tea to enjoy and relax myself briefly 3) then had my 2 evening classes and once done, I was super tired. My throat started to hurt again thus I tried to minimize my talking but hard when you have to teach and manage and control the kids from time to time 4) ordered a late dinner and ate in the office alone (everyone had left) while I took care of some more work before finally going home. Once home, I did some more work so that I could truly enjoy my weekend; then showered and then called it a night **Lesson(s) learned: N/A #APinGZ #iphone12promax #apiphone12promax #wanderlust #travelbuggotmeagain #livingabroad #workingabroad #teachingoverseas #covid19 #ilovetotakepicsofmyfood #march #monday #mondayfunday #montag #guangzhou #china #广州 #中国 #星期一 #三月 #廣州 #中國 (at Guangzhou, China) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqUSQPLvzudZGld58YqEShjFM_Y0MT9EoXD5rQ0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

(3.26.23) 1) super long day today. Not only was it a work day but we will also have a school-wide event after work for 1 additional hour. I am on the planning committee (excellent work from the ladies who made the event possible) too so a lot had to be taken care of (behind the scenes) aside from just supporting the activities 2) had my morning classes as usual and ordered a round of tea to get energized for the remaining hours. Ordered a light lunch; napped and then did some observations and tasks before finally executing the evening event 3) many students came and there were many activities and games for them. The theme was Harry Potter so everyone enjoyed dressing up and it was a grand time overall. Afterwards, I was able to finally eat my dinner they ordered (mostly everyone ate before the party but since I had a lot to do, I didn’t get the chance). 4) after finally winding down, I then packed up and proceeded to go home. Jason ordered a drink for us so I enjoyed it while tackling some last minute tasks before showering and calling it a night. It was super tiring and I passed out immediately **Lesson(s) learned: N/A #APinGZ #iphone12promax #apiphone12promax #wanderlust #travelbuggotmeagain #livingabroad #workingabroad #teachingoverseas #covid19 #ilovetotakepicsofmyfood #march #sunday #sundayfunday #sonntag #guangzhou #china #广州 #中国 #星期日 #三月 #廣州 #中國 (at Guangzhou, China) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqRx_D2Pek2o7mXbOl71IP6bJCMLWcdUqpWMLY0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

(3.24.23) 1) yet another very long day. Woke up early and tackled some work at home including an online meeting. We were told that there would be heavy rain and severe weather but didn’t realize that it ended up being a thunder/lightning/rain/hail combo! It was super crazy but glad I got some video evidence 2) went into work by trekking in the rain; tackled again a long list of items from meetings to lesson planning to other tasks around the office 3) got treated to milk tea (strawberry) by colleague which was super nice and then also ordered a very early dinner since I had a very long busy evening (one of my 2 classes was an open lesson where I had parents place pictonary and it was absolutely hilarious) 4) once done at work, I returned home and continued lesson planning; then showered and called it a night before going to bed **Lesson(s) learned: N/A #APinGZ #iphone12promax #apiphone12promax #wanderlust #travelbuggotmeagain #livingabroad #workingabroad #teachingoverseas #covid19 #ilovetotakepicsofmyfood #march #friday #fridayfunday #freitag #guangzhou #china #广州 #中国 #星期五 #三月 #廣州 #中國 (at Guangzhou, China) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqMK92ivDx4DUO-HXdlhLtdRvU5mfyUo_tqFoI0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
