Still Kickin'

I am not dead, for anyone wondering. I have a Chinese literacy test in two weeks, and am bearing down for it, so don't expect anything for the next couple of weeks.

But the week of the twentieth, look for some shit. There are like twenty things open on my browser to write about.

So for now, just a note on how circumscribed some of the kids' minds' are that I teach. In one of my twelve-year-old students books recently there was a question about what you might change in your life if you could, and I opened it up and asked him what he could do if he had magic powers. His first response?

"I would go to school...very fast!"
