I really don't know if this is working, but i'll type in it anyways.
I'm currently living in Low-Yang, and will be working at a college for teachers, and teaching oral english myself. but i will be getting help ofcourse, which is comforting.
I have this wonderful place to live in and i just did laundry, and came back from eating a really good dinner with the ...well, a whole bunch of people i'm not quite sure of yet. David lee, Susan, and i think another woman by the name of dean...|? weird names,yes.
this is the second night in a row i was offered drinks forcefully, for real. I did like four of these shot thingys yesturday, and that made me feel horrible, like poopy, literally. and well, they were kinda encouraging me to drink with them again, well,one professor in particular,nobody else was really pressuring me, but they do that, i think to like be friendly or something,and they feel very welcomed with me. So, i only stuck to this wine we drank, which was soooooo good, like i could really taste the grape in it, and it was delicious. so,i had like halfof a glass, which didn't do anything to me. I hate being pressured how they pressure me, i don't like that.
So, i will telll everyone right off that i won't drink, and ofcourse, i will tell them that it's really against my beliefs, becuz i can't, it's not good for me, plus, Jesus wouldn't want me to get drunk, He tells me not to, in the bible. then it becomes a witnessing opportunity.!!!
well, i get to go out and about tomorrow. Check the campus and everything else, the office, probably my office, if i get one,...i don't think i really need one, i could use this place for my office. I really hope to visit the library, get some good reading materials, hopefully poetry.,..a little Edgar for me..: )
MAAN!! for real- i'm seriously pooping all the time! becuz of that yucky drink they drink, and cheer too. no more for me, and i mean it, i will refuse...i will only toast with the tea
It's nice having my own computer.

i put a whole bunch of people on my msn messenger thingy, i hope they know i have it now.
i'm listening to classical and it's making me sleepy. i hope i'll be able to have people come over and hang out, maybe a little get together at my house, for tea! oH! that would be great! i wonder if sharron could possibly send me some coffee! oh that would be even better...some good ole' espresso blend! we'll find out,and I really would like to find out if i could meet some christians around here....see if there's any gatherings,becuz i am really wanting fellowship and ask a few chinese believers if this whole chinese drinking culture is true, and if they take part in it...and what their ideas are on things.
well, becuz i didn't get any sleep last night, i'm dead tired, i got to get up early enough to meet David Li outside, so he can take me to the building i'm suppose to meet him in...this campus is pretty big, i really need to find out my way around, and get a towel, cuz i dried off with the bed sheets tonight,cuz i had nothing more.
i had an excellent day, and i believe the Lord was behind everything,even me telling that dude NO when it came down to wanting to drink....God is really sooo good. i love him, and just pray that He guides and directs me while being here, i need His guidance for sure, and especially to be empowered from on high. from himmm.

this the sweet spring song, signing out, from China,
