I should make mention of the fact that we have had a few days National holiday for "Dragon Boat Festival" I got to spend a wonderful day celebrating this with Netties parents...we ate all my favourite food and the traditional "Dragon Boat Day" food of "Zongzi" (sticky Rice with different fillings wrapped in leaves). The pair of us then took off to do some shopping in "Walking Street", then back again for dinner of Jaozi..I'm very spoilt!
Today I am still not working (being Saturday) but many of the teachers are working supervising and marking exams for our school entrance exams. SO many cars and people, kids everywhere this morning. Of course there are only a limited amount of spaces and our school is very, very popular...so many children trying to get accepted for next term.
I don't think that China has quite got the hang of "Holiday"...I got Thursday and Friday off but have to teach Thursdays classes on Sunday and the other teachers also got Thursday and Friday off but had to work today for the entrance exams and also do the same as me and teach tomorrow!
