Ah, the wonders of being almost a year behind with my blog. Things I post about from last year are almost relevant again! Like today’s post; Easter! So, at Aston we like the kids to “celebrate” the western holidays to try and absorb some of our culture. We don’t go into the details…well, in fact, we don’t even tell them anything about the holiday’s religious roots. They just think it’s a holiday about eating chocolate and painting eggs. Well, not too far off…

I shot this video last week. I was mainly shooting photos at the Beitang sports day, but I thought the photos didn’t give justice to just how many kids were there dancing. While this isn’t a particularly quality video, I think it gets the idea across. Enjoy! Photos (600 of em) from the event are in my very, very long que of photos to edit and blog.

Needless to say, the next lesson I taught the meaning of irony.

“Men love to chase women who are as slippery as slippery as wat soap in the tub.even if those whose who dislike taking a bath.”

I saw this great quote on a kid’s notebook. Usually they have badly translated English (Chinglish) but this one definitely made me laugh the most I’ve laughed in a while…
