About Me

Hi there, my name is Kate and I'm going to be doing the China internship in August 2010.  I'm very excited about it, but also nervous.  I've been teaching A level Psychology in a college for the past few years but fancied a new challenge and have wanted to live abroad at some point in my life, now seems like a good time.  I'm 27 and come from Cornwall but am living in Taunton at the moment.  If anyone who's going to China in August is in the south west at the moment and fancies a drink before we go let me know, it might be slightly less daunting if you already know someone!

heyaa! well had my second proper night in sanlitun last night after rugby practice (joined a girls rugby team) didnt drink and walked in the house at 8am. :) I have a mate who lives in sanlutin and she has offered her sofa but when it got to 3am i thought stuff it! lol Me and a girl went bk to the Den (24hr pub next to hooters) and had pizza and chips about 5am. Bizzarre. Have fun in shanghai, give my love to kate and the guys. Please explain to them this is the 1st time in agges ive got on the net. Laptop if broke so i am a bit screwed.xxxx

hey you, still not sure what we are doing in the October week but i'l tell you as soon as I know because it'd be great to catch up. You need to get on skype so we can have a good chinwag. I dont think a day has passed where I havent spoke to jess and kate we are conference skype calling which is quite funny. You must join us so we can get a 4 way conversation going :) Me and Michaela were thinking of going Shanghai this week for 2 days, travel down on the 21st (my bday!) lol then spent the 22nd and 23rd there. At the moment theres a lot of ifs and buts.


Only had one proper night out which was last night that the ttc guys arranged. Funny but very messy on my part. I think (ok I know) I was slightly a disgrace but there you go, its what rice wine does to me, plus we had a nightmare getting there and home. We got off at the wrong subway and walked for miles in the rain to find the bars, not impressed! Then on the way home i left my brolly (clutz) so was walking ahead of mic trying to find a subway, she wasnt too far behind me then i found a subway ran in for cover turned around and no michaela. :S Came out looked, no sign so I went bk in got out phone hoping my battery would come bk to life (nope) so I sat there a bit bemused for about 30mins waiting and hoping then thought stuff it, its getting busier, im safe on the subway and michaela had the address (and house key) so assumed she'd jst go home. So I just made my way home and got a tuktuk to my flat. Literally walked in at 8.30 am and was about 5 mins after Michaela who had a bad time getting home in a taxi and was stressing out, bless her, felt so bad! Going to make sure we are tied together next time, or I'll leave the drinking a rest for a while. but eventful shall we say?


 

Hey Kate, how are you going?


What's happening in your world at the minute, finally got the internet yesterday so trying to keep in touch with people as best as i can. What is your placement like? So many questions to ask! Let me know how everything is when you get chance,
