12th to 18th January

12^th to 18^th January

This is exam week at school and last week of school for students.  The school officially closes on 24^th January for the winter break, returning on the 24^th February for the next semester.

I just need to get my marking finished and grades uploaded into the school system then I will be finished and yearning to welcome the holidays. 

I have a meeting on Tuesday with Paul to discuss a course that we are co-teaching in and I will also upload my grades with the help of Analeigh.

It has been somewhat challenging, frustrating and depriving of my free time this past semester due to the injury 4 months ago however with that said, I feel ready for a new beginning and these next few weeks of relaxation time will definitely boost my energy.

My sister and brother-in-law will arrive on the 9^th February for two weeks of holiday time here in Taiwan.  The itinerary I have created will keep us busy for 80% of that time.

There hasn’t really been anything significant to speak of this week so instead of a lot of written words to describe my week, I have created a week in photos. 

The photos will be the story telling of this week’s entry so please sit back and enjoy the view.

UPDATE: Monday 19^th, I just received word that Team Taiwan place 3^rd overall in the Pastry World Cup being held in Italy and one of our senior (4^th year) students received best overall sugar showpiece for the juniors.  Way to go Johnny Yan!!
