Hey friends!
I am back! (also meaning I can access this site!) I returned back to Arkansas on June 25 after about 30+ hours of traveling. It was a long trip home, but of course ending well. I had some college friends come and meet me at the airport and then also drop in throughout the week last week and visit so it reall made the time special. It's so nice to be around friends who I am so comfortable with!
I then made the 9 hour drive over to Cleveland, TN on Sunday to take my graduate classes at Lee University. I am taking two courses for the next month: School Law and Research Methods, working on my MA in Teaching. We are in class 3 hours per class, so 6 hours a day plus homework each night. Needless to say, we are staying busy! All of us teachers from China are living in the same area of a dorm and so have been hanging out together during free time and eating our meals together. Last night we all went over to the main teacher in the Graduate Educational Department's house for hamburgers for the 4th of July. It was really nice to be able to go to a home to celebrate this American holiday.
I am excited to hopefully be able to see people in August when I return to Arkansas. I will return the last weekend of July to Russellville. Tentative plans are to go to Kansas for first weekend in Aug to see some friends, go to Siloam Springs second weekend in August and then home the third weekend. I will fly back to China on August 23. I will have my same email account over the summer of course and if you would like to give me a call, I have my sister's cell phone for this month at least. To get that number you can email me or talk to my parents! Hope to hear from you all soon!
