I've been hanging out in Hawaii for to long... that sentence makes me sound crazy I think. Anyways, been here to long, its time for a new path in life. And so the adventuring has been set into motion. In November, on the 12th to be exact, I'm packing up and heading back to Alaska to hang out with my sister and my mom for a while. I'm going to stay up there in the frigged north until I finish up my TESOL certification. Then I'm hoping to grab a English teaching job in china for a while. Some people I know have done it, and gave it great reviews. So, since I'm free and without focus in life, I figured "why not?".

If you have experience teaching little ones in a foreign country, drop me a line about how you did, and anything that you think might help. And, if anyone out there in dA'land would like to swap some emails to help me learn Mandarin, feel free to let me know. I've been studying with Rosetta Stone, but its not the same as talking with someone else... especially someone who might speak it on a daily bases or knows the local slang.
