I’ve had a really lonely weekend and I’ve been feeling quite homesick. First of all I didn’t get paid by the school for the 6 days work I did in February so that messed up my weekend plans as I wanted to go out somewhere on the Saturday, then I was just moping around the apartment and feeling homesick. Usually when I’m in that position I go shopping to cheer myself up, but seen as I hadn’t been paid I couldn’t even do that.
This morning I had made plans to go for brunch with one of the other teachers, we went to Mrs shannon’s bakery which I hadn’t been to before but everything is organic and the food was really good. I had an omelette which I was so happy about as I haven’t found anywhere in China that does a nice omelette. We were there for quite a while chatting and having a proper catch up as I feel that I havn’t been able to speak to anyone properly yet, it’s just been in passing at school so it was nice.
I then met with another two of the teachers for ice cream at Euro plaza and we discovered a German bar and restaurant that is opening next week. Unfortunately the ice cream parlour has closed down so we had to settle for frozen yogurt from a stand that had cornflakes as the topping, it was really weird.
I then got a taxi home and I spent the rest of the day watching films on my laptop and reading the rest of my book. I have read 3 books in 3 days so I need to slow down as I don’t have many books left to read here!
