I can't believe it. This is the first week since about mid-July that I've spent entirely in Kaohsiung!

Though it may seem as though I've been slacking on my posts, this past week I've been completely absorbed in my first week of Mandarin Chinese classes. And tomorrow another semester of teaching begins! Thus begins my dual role as both full-time teacher and student...
