From Rebekah
Hey everybody,
I’ve had so much to do here that the time just escaped me. I can’t believe that we’ve only got a week left in Chengdu. I love the people here. This experience has been an eye opening one. Most of you all know that I’m not a “big city” type of person, but if necessary, I could be very happy in one. And I never thought that I could enjoy being out of the country so much, but the people make all the difference. I’ve had the opportunity to get to know a lot of people here that I will gratefully call my friends. One of the main ones is my Chinese teaching assistant Lynn. She is such a help in class. I’m teaching the Primary 3 class. Most of them are 8 or 9. We’ve averaged 10 kids everyday. They are all so sweet, though at times they seem to enjoy acting like squirrels on caffeine. It’s great. I can’t believe that it’s almost over. I’ve had so many interesting experiences that I can’t wait to tell you all about it. Today Angela and I and Beth, Nikki, and Kristen talked about Easter, so we dyed some eggs like we do in America. I tried to boil 3 dozen eggs in 2 small electric tea kettles. It was quite an experience let me tell you. And that’s just today. I can’t wait to see you all and show you all my pictures. Talk to you soon!
