The Big City

I recently was able to do some travelling to see some famous sites! I went with some friends and a great time! We saw the Great Wall, the Temple of Heaven, Tianamen Square, and the Forbidden City. Oh, along with seeing (and eating) some great food! I got to eat a bloomin' onion from outback. That's pretty special in this part of the world...lol.
Now I'm back in my city and back in everyday life. I have to say that traveling is wonderful, but one of the wonderful parts is coming home. I really like being home a lot. Living here is my home, at least for now, and I love it. Father has truly blessed me to be able to live here and do what I do. I miss the States and my family and Walmart, but all the sacrifices are worth it. My daily life consists of studying language, visiting and spending time with friends, walking and biking through villages, running after buses, and deciding what to eat besides rice (this may be the most difficult part....). My hobbies have become playing the piano (i just bought an electric piano, yeah!), reading, painting, playing games, taking pictures, and crafting (knitting, crocheting, cross-stitch), oh and interior decorating (my living room has been given an overhaul! my bedroom's next) :) I enjoy it here and I know I've been placed here for a purpose!
