#Griffyndor Festival! (also know as the #Chinese Spring Festival)

Chinese Spring FestivalπŸ‰ . . . when all of China turns into gryffindor 🦁 house and red and gold colors πŸ‡¨πŸ‡³ rule.

I think Walmart might be secretly connected to Chinese hogwarts. Walk inside and its gryffindor pride
everywhere.

*Personally, I’m a slytherin – which fits, since my Chinese zodiac Animal is the snake 🐍

Chibi Panda!

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ #chibi #panda!! Couldn’t help myself, he was very fun to draw even if he isn’t very well drawn. But he makes me happy!😊😍

No Smoking

We’re still a little stumped by this one.  About 8 #cigarette holders were on the table, filled with water and #nosmoking signs🚭.  

Ok, I get the ‘no smoking’ 🚭. . . . but then why put out 8 cigarette holders🚬 at all???  If to SAY no smoking, wouldn’t one do the job?πŸ˜‚

They took up a lot of table space, and we were all just rather perplexed 😜

#Smoking Snowman

Apparently the delivery guys at #KFC were feeling cold yesterday. ⛄️❄️  Temps are getting towards -23C

Not sure how much help he’s gonna be today. . . . . 😜

I love that he’s still got his #cigarette πŸ˜‚  

This is my face about 90% of the time while living abroad 😜
Dictionaries? βœ… (4)

Maps? βœ… (2)

Chinese App? βœ… (6 and counting)

Students Phone Numbers for Emergencies? βœ… 

Sadness, #Chinese still is Such a complex #language!  Even after 4 years!

Crawfish day!

#Crawfish day at #KFC! 😜  There were about 7 employees rushing around with floating hats.  Totally made my day!

Merry Christmas! πŸŽ„

May everyone have the #Christmas spirit ❀️  Merry Christmas my loves! Have a great time with family, friends, & strangers! #ForGodsoloved #ASaviorisBorn 

Christmas Ride!

Awwwww  #Santa picked me up yesterday for a ride on his way to deliver #toys!  β€οΈπŸ’– Wasn’t he sweet!  Although his reindeer have upgraded to being disguised a lot like a #Toyota. πŸ˜† Thanks to #Didi for the opportunity to be sleigh escorted to my #Christmas #party!

Movie Night!

Gathers the shells AND holds your phone! The all-around perfect movie night companion!

Actually, #sunflower seeds are REALLY popular as a snack here in #China – my students always bring a ton to movie night 😜

Chinese Bookmark

Awwwww, my #student got me this beautiful bookmark for #Christmas. It looks like the Traditional Chinese cut-out #art – with #bamboo leaves and simple window pane style. Love it!
