Who ever heard of students asking for more work? Friday, April 23, 2010. This past week, all of us ETAs were running around for 72 hours straight (more or less) for the ELC’s Spring 2010 English Festival. For an idea of the jam-packed schedule, click the link above.

Getting Out of the Well: December 2009
http://jeninmacau.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Getting Out of the Well. Tuesday, December 22, 2009. Home for the holidays =). After a fairly smooth trans-Pacific flight with Matt, dropping him off safely in SF, then 36 hours of flight cancellations/delays and two trips back-and-forth to Aunt Karen/Uncle Peter's house, I'm finally back in NJ =D. And most of the Disney guinea pig movie G-Force. Both of which were pretty funny. It was true - he had helped me Saturday night.) Consequently, he was noticeably more persistent than the other agents I had...

Getting Out of the Well. Tuesday, March 30, 2010. No sakura for me =(. I had this lovely trip planned out for Easter break: 6 days in Japan with fellow ETAs Susan, Emily, and Amy, touring Tokyo, Kyoto, and Nara. Even better, I was hoping to meet up with two Yale ’09 friends, Kunmi. Studying in Tokyo) and Garrett. Amy: Uh Jen, Viva Macau is going bankrupt or something. Amy: Yeah, check it on Google. Citing that they needed to repay 200 million MOP in loans and hadn’t been keeping up on fuel payments...

http://jeninmacau.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Getting Out of the Well. Thursday, May 20, 2010. For their narrative writing project, I gave my students the following assignment: Write about a day in the life of someone who is living in a different subculture from you. The subculture can be real or fictional, and the person can either be a celebrity or someone ordinary. But I know that if I don’t run, I will be the fried chicken. I regret being a wicker man. Miao were hospital; I met a girl Zhuoma who is a native people. I opened my eyes and saw a lar...

Getting Out of the Well: June 2010
http://jeninmacau.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Getting Out of the Well. Sunday, June 20, 2010. This morning was fairly straightforward: breakfast, check-out, taxi to the Apollo hotel, then shuttle bus to the airport. (Note: Our hotel staff said there was no shuttle service from the Min Jiang hotel, so don’t believe any website that tells you otherwise.) We had to check our suitcases because they were deemed too large for carry-on luggage, but good thing I kept everything important in my backpack anyway. In a heavily trafficked area! We next drove up ...

Getting Out of the Well. Tuesday, October 27, 2009. HK trip: Mongkok and Maryknoll! With no classes to teach (Monday was a holiday for the Cheung Yeung Festival and FSH is having reading week anyway), I hopped on the ferry Monday afternoon for an overnight trip to HK. I met up with Tatiana in Central and headed to her apartment in Wan Chai - she introduced me to the tram system, which is so easy and way cheaper than the MTR! MooI mean, yum! Our Blessed Lady in the primary school inner courtyard. I have t...

Getting Out of the Well: September 2009
http://jeninmacau.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Getting Out of the Well. Monday, September 28, 2009. It's a pity that the weather absolutely sucks, because today we had a visit from a group of NYU students studying abroad in Shanghai as part of Stern's " Business and Political Economy. Looking for roots and related words, etc. Today while we were watching a Youtube video, one guy commented that the narrator's voice was very boring, so I taught them the word monotone, relating it to monogamy (a vocabulary word they already learned from the reading).
