A Day in the Life...

I just finished my first two weeks of school...always exhausting! A new grade level combined with all of the new curriculum that comes with a new school has kept me on my toes!

Here's a glimpse of my daily grind these past two weeks...

Breakfast of Champs!  Let's be honest, not all of my breakfasts are this good looking.  

The "Lady Khan"...the semi-trusted choice in China for anybody taller than 5'2".  My knees hit the handle bars on all the other Chinese bikes I tried, so this was the obvious choice.  Shawn has a matching Khan...yes, we're nerds, but again...options were limited.  We spiced mine up with a double bell system, saddle bag, and mounted lock (again, super nerdy).

The ride to school only takes about 7 minutes.  It's been very hazy out lately...everyone has been telling me that this is the worst time of year for the smog.  It's pretty gross when I think too hard about it, so I try not to think too hard about it. 

Here's my school.  Pre-k through 12th grade.  We're looking here at the elementary school entrance.

Here's the playground...apparently it cost $1,000,000 to build, but that's what you get when you pay $30,000 for your 6 year-old to go to school.  The Dragon even snorts out mist, and yes, that's a man made creek running through.

And my classroom...I get to look out over the Kindergarten playground.  I love my room.

The elementary school library...we have at least 3 libraries here, probably more.  The school is so gigantic, I haven't even seen it all yet.  

That's it for now...I'll try and be better about updating this, but blogging is hard work!
