Anna Overseas 3/4/2005 Fascinating. I do actually still know how to blog. *grin* Well, let's see. I changed the layout to something less yellow, and now I'm trying to remember a bunch of things, like how to actually do this funky blogging thing. Is there where I type my thoughts? *laugh* Okay, I'm being silly, but I'm content while doing it. Which is good, because I just spent the past... gah, 3 1/2 hours fighting with Webcrimson, which is my blogging software of choice. I'm *really* beginning to regret that choice. It's not supported anymore, so I can't get any assistance with what's going on. So, I'm doing this and probably the next few posts manually while I try to re-configure it again. I may just give up on the whole thing and just do the blog manually from now on, but I like the way Webcrimson hands archives. I suppose I *could* go to blogger, like everyone else, but I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with that idea, either. But my point, and I do have one, is Hi! I'm Anna, and I am not dead. Nor am I overseas anymore, unless you're not in North America. I miss travelling. I miss China a lot. I miss being stared at when I walking down the street. It's strange, since that drove me nuts, but it was so... China, you know? I do find it interesting that most of my return to Canada has led to me becoming more of a hermit again. *sigh* I don't go out much right now. Part of that is influenced by the fact that I'm back to working graveyards, but part of it too is that I'm just bored. What's there to do out there anymore? I mean, I love Canada, I love Edmonton, I love my friends... but everything here is so damned normal... Let's see where this goes, shall we? |
A 20-something Canadian who used to teach English in China. There's lots in the archives about my experiences with teaching, with culture shock, and with my adventures in China. Occasionally it meanders into melancholy (part of the culture shock), which must be very dull to read, so you can skip that. But right now, I'm back in Canada, and kinda determined to do something with the several thousand photos I took, as well as write more about China and other stuff.
