Misty eyed

No... I did not fall in love with The City of the Yellow Crane. I do not stay up at night thinking I could call Wuhan my home. I am not devastated that I will no longer have to squat over a hole in the ground and call that my toilet. But- I am a little misty eyed.

Why? You loathe Wuhan!

Well, because of this girl-

I am so lucky to have met Candy. I am horribly sad that I will probably not see her again. I am trying to convince her to come visit me in Beijing, or even better, America! However, knowing how much money she makes I doubt she will be able to afford the trip. Candy is the one good thing I can always count on in Wuhan. She has been such a wonderful friend. I am sure I will be boo-hooing my eyes out on Wednesday when I have to say goodbye. I was almost boo-hooing my eyes out today just knowing that the time is coming so soon. Candy makes me think that Wuhan is really not so bad. Sue and Leslie- you two are lucky that you have such a wonderful assistant!

Four more days until I am back in Beijing.

PS- I finished reading The Help. Check out the discussion on my Book Club page. Also, I will be starting Room by Emma Donoghue on Wednesday (America's Tuesday night). I think it is going to be an awesome read.

Mandarin lesson:
mèimei 妹妹 (little sister) Kū 哭 (cry) Wǒ xiǎngniàn nǐ. 我想念你。(I miss you.)
