So I have decided that I hate being illiterate. I have to learn the language around here… it’s stressing me out that I can’t communicate with people. I wanted to order a pizza tonight. There is a Domino’s pizza here really close believe it or...
I think I am a day or 2 behind on this… but the OCTOBER club heidi kit is up! And has lots of fun fall and Halloween stuff in it! I wish I had a kit right about now, cause it think it would be...
ok, up and at ‘em! It’s been one week since we arrived here in Beijing. I was asking eric if it seemed like longer than a week, or shorter than a week!? The time has passed so quickly, and despite the stress of it all,...
