Chinese head massages

So if any of you ever come to America you need to come a head massage! They are probably the most enjoyable thing ever and it was only two American dollars! The Chinese people LOVE Americans everywhere we go they stare and point and try out any English they know. Amy (my head teacher) said that they think Americans are beautiful. Instead of tanning like what we do they have bleaching cream! They like to bleach their skin to make themselves look lighter. It is really crazy.
We don't start teaching until next Thursday so we're mostly just training and travelig. And when we're not doing that we have places to go get body massages and manicure/pedicures... I know a rough life. The humidity is kinda funny because it makes the weather fluctuate a lot. It the mornings and at nights it really cold but in the day it is really warm. Soon it will be just hot all around, can't wait for that (not)!
The best food that I have found so far is probably their bakeries. They make the best bread here ever! Now I know why some people don't come back skinnier, most of the time they eat carbs, a little vegetables and few meat. Thats okay with me though because most of the time you dont really know what the meat is. It is hard not being able to communicate with the people but it is amazing what you can communicate with gestures and smiles. They really are a happy people here.
Well we still don't have internet in my apartment yet but I promise as soon as we do I will send pictures! Thank you all for your comments and concern. I'll write soon
