amandarin conversation: April 2009
http://amandarinconversation.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 27, 2009. I should learn how to write my name. Whoops. Somehow this slips past me ½ the time. I faithfully check everyone else’s blog through following on my little blogger dashboard thingy, but writing myself… that pretty much only happens if I plan on it by taking my laptop into the office (where there is no Internet so I can focus on just writing word docs). Anyways, enough excuses…. Now I have to tell you about TWO trips to Chinese clinics! Nurse: What’s her name? It seems as though the...

Friday, March 27, 2009. Problems with the Lappy 486. I’m having serious computer issues again. This is a recurring theme in my life that I am not a fan of. Recurring themes that are ok: Tex-Mex, mini-vacations, pedicures, etc. Not ok? Computers breaking, droughts, olives, etc. I bought him last May, refurbished in Austin from a trusted store, as well as a brand-new copy of XP (because I refuse to use Vista). Is this something easily fixed? Do I need to start looking into draining my bank account? We̵...

amandarin conversation: January 2009
http://amandarinconversation.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 10, 2009. I had a very successful day operating in the Chinese culture/language last week that I think I should share, if nothing else but encouragement to myself! It took a bit of Chinese to get to the McDonald’s – he said he knew where he was going, but halfway there he starts asking us where it is! 8221;…. they must have loved that! We were so incredibly blessed – our teller spoke English! And a short pu-pu cha ride, we were home. In 3 hours. Record breaking. All communic...Oh course...

Sitting in Starbucks in Beijing, listening to Christmas music, watching people walk by, sipping a soy toffee nut latte with Kristina G and MaryBeth. life is pretty good right now.
