I am quickly growing tired of the lousy, rainy, cold weather here in Shanghai. I have been told it is usually T-shirt weather by now, but I am still wearing 3-4 layers of clothing everyday! BRR!
Anyway, on one particularly awesome day last week, I had a half day of work! I finished my 6 morning classes at 11 and had the rest of the day to myself. So, I wandered around my school's neighborhood looking for the Shanghai Botanical Garden. Many sections of the garden were in bloom and it was the second day of "Flower Festival 2010!" There were many, many students there on field trips, so some sections were very busy and crowded. (And I couldn't escape the middle and high school students waving "hello" at me and giggling.) However, some sections were very peaceful and relaxing. Overall, it was a very pleasant afternoon.

School news:
- Today, I had 3 morning classes instead of 6. AND, they were all well behaved.
- I am supposed to be chaperoning a field trip this week for the beginners and book 2 classes. Unfortunately, the weather is not in my favor. =( 90% chance of rain tomorrow and 70% the following day. The field trip was moved to sometime next week. =(
