Aaron's Adventures In China. Wednesday, November 23, 2005. In other news, Cletus and I had a wonderful trip to Shenyang, but those stories will have to wait. And my goodness, are there stories! Also we have a special guest arriving in Jilin on Sunday, but that person's identity will have to remain a secret for the time being. So, more posts to come, but you'll have to wait till I'm done digesting 5 kilos worth of garlic mashed potatoes. Whoot Whoot! Man I love Thankgiving! Posted by Aaron @ 10:30 PM.

Aaron's Adventures In China. Sunday, October 30, 2005. Yes, they do know about Halloween here in China.

I spent the last fifteen minutes or so of every class this week explaining Halloween to the students, and giving them ideas for costumes. Next stop, Thanksgiving! Posted by Aaron @ 3:43 PM.

Aaron's Adventures In China. Thursday, October 19, 2006. Are Tanks Really More Important Than Pears? Sorry for the lack of posts recently.
