And any man who knows a thing knows, he knows not a damn, damn thing at all

So I have been trying to get things together. I start my PSW class today and I will be doing that for the next 28 weeks from 6-10pm plus my clinical placement time. So I will be being kept pretty busy I think. The first topic I am learning about is Individuality of the Person. I got my nursing shoes today..they are not great looking but they are New Balance running shoes and well I have a special place in my heart for new Balance running shoes..i have a pair that I have had for years through my time in the Dominican Republic til my time in china :P and they are in amazing condition and I love them ahha :)

I also went to Chapters and got a Mandarin basic course set so I am going to be working on that a little every day. Hopefully I will be able to catch on quick :).

There is a lot I miss about China..well mainly the people and I miss all the memories. I am already feeling the itch to travel again...I wonder if I will ever stop feeling that. I think the thing is that I love meeting new people, pushing myself out of my comfort zone and creating memories. I just have to keep focus for my next 7 months in school which might be kinda tough for me but I am going to have to try to distract myself as much as possible I suppose. Me and school just do not get along..its weird because I love learning new things but doing the same thing everyday really takes a toll on me so hopefully this provides enough variety in routine for me or I might be a total nut case for the next 7 months and no one wants to deal with me when I am like that haha.

I am still on the job search. I hopefully will find something soon..money always helps haha...especially when your as my Grandma Wagar always calls me a "Dreamer" :P hey yeah of course I am a little unrealistic sometimes but I am young dang it! haha plus if your not going to dream big why bother dreaming at all, thats what I think anyways :P

Nursing..who would have thunk it :P

Hey all!

so its really weird being home but I really am adjusting quickly. I had a week of hanging out with the Marchand's and having fun but now its time to get down to work for me. I went to Everest College and I actually got goosebumps while I was looking around the school...It just felt like I was making the right choice and that I was doing the right thing.I will be taking the Personal Support Worker Program. I will be in school for 29 weeks and then I will be done my PSW training and then I have about 3 months to work and save up for university and I will hopefully be going to the University of Toronto for International Development!! On top of all this I am on the job hunt and really need a full time job! so hopefully I will find one soon!

Yeah so thats the watered down version of an update on my life :P I will try to write more soon!

Headed Home! :)

So I am sitting in the Hong Kong Airport and I am going home!!! I am not feeling so great so I am pretty excited to be at home with my family and back on my side of the planet! :P These last few months have been quite the adventure though and I have learned a lot not only about the world but about myself.

This is another video from my stay in Ningbo last weekend

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.
