It hit 100 degrees here yesterday it's no wonder our apartment won't cool down, it's just too hot outside. Or it could be that our airconditioners are crapping out. I can't wait to come home and be in cooler weather, even if it's in the 80s I'll be ok with that.

I've lots of thoughts floating around in my head as I near the end of my stay in Zhengzhou and I've been doing a lot of writing about it, but it's all over the place. I'm hoping to clean some of it up and post it this week.

Today begins my last week of teaching...and I'll be back in the States in 17 days!
