canadian international school of beijing: IKEA Rescued Me In China! - 09/30/10 02:16 PM
It’s National Day here in China today!  This is the anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949.  This morning I was up early, still 11 hrs difference ahead from New Brunswick, Canada and got dressed to try to find the Starbucks’ the VP & ESL Teacher took me to before.  As I was approaching the Solano Mall, I realized I was still in a different country.  The western style Solano Mall gates to the mall area were closed.

canadian international school of beijing: Augh! My Electrical Plugs Don't Work Here? - 09/26/10 12:42 AM

canadian international school of beijing: Who Am I And What Time Is It? - 09/25/10 10:33 AM

Who am I and what time is it?   Air Canada fed us 3 times, had dinner 1st, Cup of Noodles 2nd with chopsticks and with breakfast as the last meal, even though we landed at 3:55 p.m.  Thursday, Beijing time or 4:55 a.m. in Saint John’s Atlantic time zone.   Two FULL planes later, It’s been 17 hours and I’m finally in Beijing, China!  I think this was a longer trip than Hawaii, even though we took the North Pole route from Toronto to Beijing.
I was greeted by the owner’s chauffer with my 3 huge suitcases, my Macbook  Pro case … (16 comments)

canadian international school of beijing: I'm Moving to Beijing, CHINA!!! - 08/18/10 03:08 AM
 

With the news that China has bumped Japan as the 2nd economic powerhouse in the world, it was time for me to make a decision!  I hadn't looked falling back into my teacher role, after 6 years not teaching, except for some 1 or 2 “supply teaching” short-term jobs here in Canada.  The “supply teaching” jobs are like real estate, sometimes there’s a paycheck close by and other times nothing comes in for weeks or months on end. 
Currently, the real estate market is way down to 21% for the Saint John area and 30% for all of … (27 comments)
