The Exodus

In case you have all been living under a rock, I'm heading to China... tomorrow. Usually I'm better at updating people about my life, but I've been so busy getting ready, I hardly have time to brag.

So, some info:

Where: Weihai, Shandong, China
When: February 26- June 26
Why: Going to be a head teacher through International Language Programs (pretty much the best volunteer program out there)
Who: Me, my sister, my amazing co-head teacher Susan, and 20 teachers! Wowsa!

So, I'm going to be gone for quite some time. However, I'm hopeful that this experience will be just as amazing (if not more amazing) as my previous experiences. I'm excited to experience a different culture and especially that I have the opportunity to share it with my sister (and best friend), Andrea.

So, as usual, I'll be posting weekly updates here on this beautiful blog throughout this upcoming semester. Because I'm going to be in China (where internet is highly firewalled and protected), I'm unsure if I'll be able to use things like facebook. However, I'm confident that this blog will be a good source of information for those who are interested.

As well as having my blog and email so people from home can contact me, I also have an internet phone number. So, in case you'd like to text or call, my number is 801-900-3148. I can't promise I'll get back to you the minute that you attempt to contact me, but I will get back to you as soon as possible.

That's about it. I hope to update again soon when I'm on Chinese soil.
