Indian food wasn't as good as originally thought...
well the past few days have been busy busy busy as usual :)!! on wednesday I was back at the company again, caroline was ill so came in on my own with ainna, one of the girls I work with... was a good day actually!! I was told to design 3 jackets/cardigans for Intrex, all was going well, but it turns out the curry I had the night before wasn't quite as nice as I originally thought and I ended up ill too, not good! Im fine now though! Also on wednesday they picked 2 of my t-shirt designs to send off to be sampled, (well I think this is what happened although I maybe wrong) but they did pick 2!! if it hadn't been for me feel awful I would have posted this earlier. the evening was a relaxed one, I did my washing which meant my whole room as covered in clothes hung from every possible place I could think of, then I stayed in and just basically slept from about 9.30-10, was the best sleep ever!!!! Yesterday was ok too, got a bit of a lie in till 7.30 (if you can call that a lie in hahaha!) we got picked up to go to the middle school but we were not teaching because the kids had exams, instead we had been asked if we would judge the teachers English as they are currently in contact with a school in singapore, and are looking to send one or two teachers over for experience how they teach in that country, so there was some good and bad English, some of the people just didn't have a clue on how to answer, most of this was due to the fact they were maths or science teachers, and some of the people were flaunt in English, we picked the best, but as things seem to work every differently out here, so basically the older you are the more opportunity you have to do these things, so even though the best speaking ones were English teachers and Fairly young, they may still send someone older who can speak little English... we will see next week as we will know by then. When we got home at about 3.30 (so not too late for once) we all decided going out for tea was a good idea, but not to the Indian again. we went a mexican restaurant in the centre of Ningbo! It was amazing and you get so much food for £10! that got me 3 beef and chicken fajitas and a beer! cant moan about that!!! its nice to have some sort of western food!!!! We decided to set off back home as Kate and Laura had to go and meet their boss with Jasmine, Thought this was going to take us 45 mins at the most, but no on the way to the bus stop we stopped a little shop full of jewellery and pretty boxes, well that was it, I bought 2 bracelets for what was basically £7 and caroline bought the shop, as well as her and Becca fighting over a hippy bag which I also wanted to decided I may find one in Shanghai next weekend!!!! ahhh oh yes forgot to say we booked out 3 nights in Shanghai too the other day, we leave on the 28th, and are there till 2nd!!! cant wait to go and see some of the history and go to the zoo to ride and elephant (hopefully) haha! going to be so much fun! Anyway back to yesterday, After about an hour in the shop and Caroline keeping it open on her purchases alone, we were ready for home, turns out however that the bus wasn't ready to take us, waited 45 mins for a bus that is meant to be every 12 mins, we passed this time by waving at anyone staring at us.... it amused us for a while but Im not sure the people staring liked it, they didn't wave back... Eventually when we got home it was half 9, after a bus packed to the point of bursting and some unexpected shopping I was ready for bed! I have some pictures from the school I will upload later, forgot my camera today... anyway another post soon :)! thanks for all the views!!!! Okay scrap that no pictures are uploading now Ill try again later!!!
