Hey! so I am still alive and I didn't sleep on dirt floors and I don't think i ate dog...but who knows...I never recognize half of the things i eat here hahah :P Its crazy Chinese Business society is just so different..and table manners are very different here. Everything that I was taught not to do at the table as a child by my mom is encouraged here..its really strange for me.
This is a video of the dancers at the Job I had this weekend in Ningbo, China.
It was a pretty crazy weekend, I arrived in Ningbo and we checked into the hotel and then we ate lunch then we got ready for the job getting all dressed up and stuff. We went to this nice place for dinner that was owned by this really eccentric Chinese guy.Then we went to this club and hung out for what felt like forever and then we just had to go out on stage and look pretty and then we went to another club and did the same thing three clubs in 2 nights. so basically i was just paid eye candy for the weekend...fun times..i guess it was an experience though.

So I have been really lame lately and not updating my blog but this week I went to the Pearl Market with Carrie, Noah and Jack and it was pretty good..better than the silk market but really all these markets sell the same stuff....it seems much calmer at the pearl market though which i liked. I bought my brother some stuff for his birthday there and then i got to see the toy market which was kinda fun :P
So the agency is telling me that I have a job and that I have to get on a plane for a two hour flight and I will be there from sat til monday...I am not sure how i feel about this.....I kind of want to tell them no and just do my own thing this weekend.... I really don't want to end up sleeping in the middle of nowhere with dirt floors, no escape from the heat and only dog or something to eat...I do not have a good feeling about this.....i don't like this...its all about the experience right? eee i really don't want to do this but the problem is the agency is ticked off at me as it is and i dunno...fab said i was staying in a hotel i just don't know how reliable his word is....hopefully its not completely horrible......i am trying to think possitive....

well I will let you all know how it all goes I am debating the pros and cons in my head right now so we will see...
