I was up early this morning to get an earlier start at school as parents were arriving at 8.15am. The open day went really well and I met the parents of the fourth grade students which was nice. Today was also Doreendas birthday so for lunch we ordered a subway and ate it in the office (it beats the cafeteria food).
It was quite an easy afternoon as I had grade 2 for two lessons then grades 3, 4 and 5 had been given the last period as an extra playtime as a treat for doing well in the speech competitions so I just had to supervise them until 3.15pm, then it was home time! I went to Pinnacle Plaza with Doreenda, Raena and Anna for a few drinks for Doreendas birthday as Anna and Raena weren’t coming out for the meal, went home for a quick change then shared a taxi with Doreenda and Amanda into the city.
We went to an area that I had never been to before and to an Italian restaurant and then afterwards to a bar next door. One of the guys had ordered an Americana pizza which said cheese and tomato pizza with French fries, which we thought meant the fries would be on the side, but when it came they were actually on the pizza! It was a really nice place, except for the fact that in China you can still smoke indoors so my eyes were stinging there was so much smoke and my hair smelt like an ashtray. The girls were moving onto a club and I had had enough by then so I was going to share a taxi with Dave and Kevin who were going to another bar on the way back to Houshayu and then just go home. We got into a taxi and were on our way to Temple bar for the guys to see a live band there and they persuaded me to go in for one drink, I ended up staying with them until 2am! It was a techno night and there was a dubstep band on and it was my first ever time seeing a dubstep band live which I am counting as my new thing for this week.
