Can't keep me quiet...

Recently the network access to Blogspot was restricted, hence why I haven't posted anything in several weeks. Even so, I found a way to get this through.

My regular lessons ended today, the next two weeks I'm going to spend giving my students their finals.
(Translation: I will shortly be engaged in 235, 3-minute conversations that will chew up the next two weeks of my time in listening, and perhaps an extra week for grading).


A recent event of note: My colleague Richard held a concert where he performed with a traditional Chinese music band and a Jazz band. For my part I served as one of the three MCs (and unfortunately I am at present unable to post any of the pictures from the show on this site - you can however see them on my Facebook account).


In other news I've made plans to go traveling in Southern China once I'm done giving and grading finals. As it stands now I plan to be gone for around two weeks, flying out the fourth week this month, traversing the region by bus and on foot, and returning by train when it's all over.

I'll follow with details later.
