I am very excited for May 1st; Boba shall be coming to visit me in China until May 9th!!! I can't wait to share my life here with him. He gets to hear so many stories, and it will be nice to have him get to experience a little bit of my everyday.
I may have a break for a few days when he arrives. We may spend a day or two in Beijing before returning to Dongying. I haven't had the opportunity to explore Beijing despite traveling there twice. Remus, Joe, and I may also go up to Dalian to visit Ashley!
I also plan to relax with him, too. I really miss seeing him in person (obviously haha), and I can't wait to be able to hold his hand. As much as I would love to run around with him everywhere; I also recognize that it's important to do nothing with him as well. Taking the time to just pretend that the floor is made of lava stay in bed all day sounds amazing. It's going to be nice to have a little bit of home here with me in China.
You're beautiful, but....
Friday night was a night of hell, two hours of hell to be exact. Let me start at the beginning. I had to go to Western Union to send money home. Remus (my friend that is also a foreign teacher) came to meet me and keep me company. He told me that Dean (our awesome Chinese friend) had invited us to dinner with a family friend. Dean wasn't excited to spend time with this family friend. Dean felt that the family friend was a "disaster and a bastard. Unfortunately, Dean had to have dinner with him because if he can't get a job in the US or somewhere else then this family friend could be his boss. The family friend invited Remus and me as well. Dean let us know that he really didn't want to eat with him alone. I personally didn't want to go. I haven't been feeling too well emotionally since I came back to China. It's my school once again. I am also having a hard time adjusting to not seeing or talking to my boyfriend as much as I did during Spring Festival. I really didn't want to deal with an asshole, no matter how much I love Dean. We'll call him D.I.C. (dumb, inconsiderate, and close-minded). We tell Dean we can't have dinner because we were going to Pizza Hut; the service there is super slow, so we wouldn't have been done by the time they were supposed to have dinner. We tell him to come by later with D.I.C.
Remus and I were setting up my new VPN when Dean knocks on the window around 7:30....that's when the two hours of hell begin.
