Alison Taylor is raising funds for ILP Guangzhou, China on Kickstarter! Ever wanted to travel the world? I will be in China for six months teaching English and posting videos. Help me make this work!

I will be going to Shiqi-Zhong 4 School in China for the Fall Semester!!!!

Hey so I saw you're going to China with ILP! That's awesome! I went in 2012 and had a great experience. Which city are you going to?

Yeah I am super excited!!! I am not sure which city I am going to yet. I already sent in most of my documents, so honestly it is just a matter of waiting for them to tell me. Hopefully soon though!!! I will post where I am going when I find out!

I find out in the next few days whether or not I get to go to China this fall. Ugh, I am so nervous/excited!!!

27 long hours on an uncomfortable bus later and I'm back in Kyiv! I haven't been on Tumblr in a week. :( Hopefully my laptop charger will be here soon and Audrey can help us set up our wifi. I'm writing a blog post for every city I went to but that's gonna have to wait awhile haha. I'm so tired I'm probably gonna pass out here in a few minutes.

Guys my queue ran out. :( But I am computer less until my new charger gets here and I won't even be back to Ukraine til Tuesday. Buuut I am going to Prague today so I guess I can suffer until then. ;) But weather if you could pleeaasseee stop raining that would be awesome!

Haha so this genius decided it would be ok to put her water bottle in the same pouch as her MacBook charger, and now guess who's charger is fried? 

Hahaha...*crying*

My laptop is dead, and I looked in an electronics store but a new charger would cost $140!! It's cheaper for my mom to mail me a new one. Luckily I'm on vacation and busy for a lot of the next two weeks and I have my iPhone so hopefully it won't be too bad. Glad I broke down and bought that extra SD card! 

I'm really angry at myself though. I should have know better. I was going to buy a Meet and Greet ticket for the Lindsey Stirling concert but that would cost as much as my charger so as punishment I'm not going to buy that ticket. I need to think things through better and be more careful.

Also 3 people in my group (one of them was my roommate and another my Head Teacher) went out for breakfast this morning and didn't invite me. Feeling left out is such a great way to start the day! /s. 

I'm glad I'm here...I guess. But I miss China and I miss ILP in China. It's better there. I don't like living with a host family and I don't like teaching at a different school than most of the girls. Only one month til summer camp then we'll be teaching more like China.
