sorrrrryyyy

Ok i am very sorry for my lack of posts , i have been ridiculously busy . Ok its truth time i am gonna be honest me and dave are going out :) he is my boyfriend which the kids go mental at , it was bound to happen we spend everyday together and we enjoy each others company. I am very happy :D, makes things a lot easier out here having someone close to talk to and he is really good. 

So the reason for lack of posts i have another job, another job i hear you yes trying to earn money for our 4 week holiday in February planning on going thailand, cambodia,vietnam laos and some parts of china so need to save a lot hahaha. But this new job is fairly easy the kids are geniuses 3-5 know their colours animals numbers body parts etc they know so much its ridic i can have a proper convo with the 10-12 year olds .They give me a lot of the material the past week i have been just reading books and going through them piss easy money and dave works their too. So i now work tuesday, wednesday and friday. 

Teaching is going good been teaching the kids to sing i have videoed them but i can't upload them so i will show you when i get back they are hilarious. the kids are really starting to come out of their shells and ask questions its really nice . Some classes have even started to take work back and show it to me next lesson its crazy. The kids i think are really starting to enjoy my lessons (i hope). I even had my lesson observed by fellow teachers Jen, Sophie, Michael and George (americans) kitty and john the people who look after me  and the deputy head of the school . I was shitting my pants as it was scary having all those people in my lesson but the kids were excellent and really responsive and got some really nice compliments after the lesson saying how good it was and how much they enjoyed it and that i have a sweet voice haha :D the deputy head even said it was really good which made me very very happy :D.

The weather is getting a lot colder here but thankfully we have the heating on now making it easier to do work instead of being in 50 layers and attempting to type. I think we are on the same temp as england but here there is less of a wind and its so much drier. Since i have been here in shijiazhuang i think there has only been 5 days of rain it is amazing.

Starting to learn the language a little more having some proper lessons which helps using as much as we can look like a muppet carrying a book around with all my notes on the language most of the time they understand me other times they have no idea. I think it is the tones i would love to be the end of the year be able to have a mini conversation. I still have no idea what they are saying to me they speak way too fast haha.

Below are some random pictures some from my computer as i realised i could take pictures with my laptop amazing others from random events and most from KTV which is a very popular club on every street and it a karaoke place its amazing really cheap and a lot of fun i sang for a lot of the night we were there for a good 4 hours singing our hearts out love it :) defo need to go back sometime soon. 

a promise: i will write more regular blogs :D
