Gearing up for the future

Hey all!

Wei and I just got our "official" picture for the gov't marriage certificate.

 Everyone that gets married has to have this for their certificate book. It looks kinda like a passport book. We will probably go to the bureau of civil affairs some time in the next few weeks to get the certificate. That will make the marriage legal in China. We might do ceremony or a dinner here for her family and friends. Still in discussions though. Also, she is, as I am typing this, booking a flight for us to Xi'an. We are going back up north to visit her parents during the winter holiday/new year. Next year is the year of the bunny. All I can think of is the killer rabbit from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Run Away!!!!

Well, off to finish the lesson plans for tomorrow.

Later,

Asian Games and running on the water

Hey guys,

Well, the Asian Games opened last night.

Asian Games opening part 1 on youtube

There were fireworks(China, fireworks, go figure) Huge TVs, a man running on water. Lots of cool stuff.
I could see most of the fireworks from my building. The tower Wei and I went to in the last update was the one with the cool explosions going up it. In one part of the tower video, you can see the people practicing for the opening event.

Also on Thursdayafternoon, when talking to my little brother on SKYPE, I went to get something from the other room. My foot slipped and ran into something. YEAH!!!! Broke my index toe, right foot. Nice purple color.

Well, let me know what's on your mind, or what's going on.

Little update

Hey guys,

Haven't updated in a while I know. I've been busy with school and getting things done for Wei's b-day that just passed. and school, yes I know I said school. Anyway, Wei had a good birthday, she got a new DVD player, she really needed one, socks, a fish tank with blue glowy fish, and a diamond ring. A couple days ago we went to the new TV tower in Guangzhou, it's the tallest tower in the world at 610M. We went to the top floor and looked around. Sooooooooo many people were in there, but they had to shut down early because of a "VIP". I will link the website that has info about the tower at the bottom of the update. lots of neat info.

I know the song in the video isn't the best match but hey...
