Andy's wedding is going to be the last week of july in Taiwan. Just happened to be the first week of school term 3. Since the school holidays is not far from it I think I will just take the whole 6 weeks off this time. That's one good thing about being your own boss. All I need to do is to tell everyone that I am off to Europe for  6 weeks. TA-DA-SAYONARA. Then off I go. 
I want to go to Barcelona.....heard its so beautiful there. Maybe back to do some spanish classes again and learn flamenco too. Maybe off to New york to see Ivy and grab her to Spain with me? Or Greece is a good option too. Rosemary said Greek Island and Sussana said how about Hungary? Wherever. I will go wherever. Lets pack up the bags and go! Come with me!

Do you have this weird feeling? Sometimes you feel you are very social and there are times you have no idea what to say in a social setting. I normally am very social. Even if I go to places by myself I will talk to whoever and chat about whatever. I don't think I have ever gone to supermarket without talking to strangers. I go to ice rink a few times a week everyweek and yesterday the girls there said that they have never seen someone who is  so good at putting people together and introduce each other as friends. I was very happy to hear that.
But you know what?  there are times I totally have no idea what to say. That is in the pub or bar. Or anywhere when lots of random guys are around. I have no idea what to chat to guys. Not good with a group and not even good with just one. Not because of shy or anything its just that I have no idea what to talk about. computer? cars? sports? politics? none of them i have any ideas. It's almost boring sometimes. That's when I feel really empty social. Totally out of my power. HAHA

I can't tolerate boring looking homework book from the kids. Also I like everything big. So the homework book i get student to buy is always the size of big scrap book that people use for drawing and painting. Then they have to decorate it. I like this one. She couldn't pick a even bighter cover. I am satisfied in deed.
 

6 of us drove all the way to enfield for this Peking duck place that you have to order a week before. Gee this duck is juicy. Such good price too....i think i ate 8 pieces of them with the pancake. Worth the one hour drive.

I am really not a motherly kind of person but when you see Diandra you will think if i have a little daughter i will love to have one like her. She does whatever you ask her to sing play and dance. She is only 5 and really is cute. You see i have been talking about her and her wolley friend not long ago. She turns up everyweek in super cute outfit. This is our ballerina week....

This is the most common summer birthday party. Today my neighbors have one. The OZ kids sometimes will get fairy comes in, jumping castle or some sort of science club people to come in making rocket...harry potter club....whatever you can think of. My neighbor just has the ordinary pool party with food cake and friends. For a 5 or 6 year old. Aren't they lucky? this happens everyweek in between my students. always different..fancy fancy and more fancy!!
 

 

The 3 Day Diet Meal Plan

This diet is also known as the British Heart Foundation Diet and the Greenland Diet and has been circulating for many years.

The diet has circulated in the form of a one page sheet that claims you can lose 10 pounds in 3 days. The diet has been popular in the UK - but its exact origins are unknown.

I am quite frustrated with the house. A family house that needs huge amount of work. Even the handyman who came and did the quote told me if he has the house he will knock it all down because there are just too many things needed to be done. He quoted just the front balcony door reshapeing plus the 4 rails at the front will cost $ 920. He is a honest man and he is normally half price as other handyman according to my friends. but that $920 is not even 0.1 % of what is needed to be fixed around the house. If we knock it down where am I going to live and work. I can buy an apartment cause I am looking for one now anyway. However the 60 plus families in my studio within walking distance to me will be very hard to maintain and I need to keep the income too. To pay for handyman for instance. Gee life is stressful.

This is the health club I go everyday. very red and very new. I never ate in their cafe until yesterday. Gee even the cafe there has the healthiest food I have ever seen. Honestly. I can't eat organic super healthy food like that. Too healthy. too boring....
