LEAVING NANCHANG

It is 10:45 and the temperature here in Nan Chang is 87 degrees, the low tonight is projected at 84. The heat index now is 100. This place is hot and I am glad I am moving to a new city tomorrow. I am not just glad because of the heat but most of my friends have left and a new batch of teachers are coming in. I am moving to a city in south Jiangxi Province called Ganzhou. It is smaller than this place but is supposed to have better air and less arrogant people.

I finally let student friends know I am leaving, I was surprised at how unhappy they were. Their displeasure made me feel good.

I will be in the states soon so I will see some of you then.

In the mean time, enjoy the cooler weather in the USA.
