the return!
i have decided to REVIVE MY BLOG!! the whole typing-email-updates-everyday thing was just getting way too troublesome, and earning me well deserved glares from rival computer in the ever-lengthening queue. so here it is-- for the purpose of this beijing ISEC teaching trip, i will break my long abstinence from high-tech journaling, and succumb to the convenience of updating anyone who might be vaguely interested, all at once.just for those who mite not know, i'm on a 2 month teaching cum mission trip to beijing to teach english. our team, comprising oxbridge and ivy league students, is organizing a series of 3 english summer camps for local kids. we've been here for just about a month now and have just finished the 1st camp. the next one is supposed to begin tmr, but because of various breaches of contract which are and probably forever will be too complicated for me to understand, and which seem to rid this project and chinese business deals as a whole, the nature and even possibility of a 2nd and 3rd camp seem abit uncertain. but we're just trusting that god will provide possibilities and open doors, just as he's been doing since day 1 of this project. its almost as if all the difficulties and frustrations we've run into as a team and as individuals have been placed there just to show to everyone involved that god is truly bigger than anything, anyone, any system.
i could go on forever about the things that have happened so far, but i reckon it'll be better to just continue from where my emails leave off, and so, this is all for now! maybe when i'm in a more nostalgic mood, i'll do some retrospective journalling. going for a nap now!!
