It is also, the time for us to go back to Tainan right away.
Yesterday, David went to pick up our family's dog 園園. This is my mother's-in-law's dog. She took care of him for 15 years already. It is so hard to imagine 15 years taking care of the dog and giving him food and other things it is a little bit hard. Also, the long company between the animal an the human is also inseparable.
This is a wonderful picture of Sydney New Year's Eve 2006. This is so wonderful with a lot of coloring lights. It is just beautiful how each city in different country spent their money in New Year's celebration.
Today, I woke up very early to prepare house things. I took all the clothing inside to dry better. I also, need to prepare to go to work. After teahcing, I went to have my hair done. Alan and I went to the doctor and we went to buy some fruits to bring back to Tao-Yuan (桃園). Also, we went to Shing-Kong (新光三越) to buy presents for David's nieces that they came back from Hong Kong to Taiwan. Unfortunately, they won't be in Taiwan for too long. I have three gifts for each of them. I have very cute photo phrame, two DIY flowers and dog. I am hopping they will like it. I am hopping that they can make it.
I have whole day class, today. I was teaching in the third period, I felt little earthquake. It was for just one minute, after one minute, it was over. This situation scared many students. Since we are girls school, all the girls were screaming. After that we are all okay.
Last night around 9:00 P.M. There were twice earthwuake in Taiwan. the first one was not too strong but the second one was really strong. What happened? I do not know. I called my family and they were ok.
Unbeliable, Alan is in the second grade and this funfest is his second time at his new school. Last year, the funfest was held in may, summer time. Alan was wearing school shorts and T-shirts. This year, different picture shows Alan is a growing child. He really enjoyed to be in his funfest but importantly, he did not class on Monday, which is Christmas.
On Saturday morning, Alan had his Funfest (園遊會) at his school, we went home to shigang (西港) right away to prepare our laguage and go directly to Taichun. It took me and Alan two hours drive.

Indian women before they got married, they need to paint their hands like this. This means good luck! to them. Men usually like what women paint on their hands, it symbolizes pretty. In my culture, this is ugly, but it is pretty in the Indian culture.

I am very excited about Alan's Christmas performance. I will take a lot of pictures to Alan. Yesterday, before Alan and I went to sleep, he was practicing his dance for tomorrow. He is very cute and intelligent. he remembered what the teacher had been teaching them.
Today, we went to Accademic Office, Student's Affair Office, General Offfice, Accounting Office, School Convinient Store and the Guard to sing Christmas Carols. I am very proud of my junior Two A because they did a great job. Even they are very noisy class, but their performance turned out excellent. Eveyone ejoyed their performance. I am glad that they did not let me down. I saved my face today! ha ha ha ha ha...
