a message from China November 14, 2007

This is a photo of Dinah and Polly, two of our new chinese friends, taken at their high school on our last day in Guangzhou. I thought i’d share with you an email i received from Polly today – it was a lovely surprise and great to be reminded that our connections with China will last beyond our time there.
Dinah and Polly at No. 6 High School
”Sorry that I send you this E-mail one week after we say farewell because I’m having a mid-term exam last week. This week I’m a little busy too because I’m going to have a competition called NOIP. Maybe NOIP is short for National Olympics Imformatic P….. Well,I don’t know what the P is for. But I guess it may be a word means competition;) In the competition, we will write programmes on the computer. Do the students in the UK play this? There is also a competition called IOI. The first I is short for International. We who take part in this area are often called OIers. Well, maybe it’s Chinglish ;) . After the competition ends this Saturday, I will tell you something about it. If I get the first grade prize,I can go into the university without entrance exam!That’s so fantastic! I hope I can get it. We will know the result in the afternoon of the Saturday. Oh, I’m a little nervous now. But I believe that I can get it~:)
By the way,after we say goodbye have you found the medicine you were finding? I am a little curious because I can’t, for some unknown reasons, get on the PlanC’s blog.
Please write me soon;). Polly.”

    Hi, thanks for letting us know you’ve enjoyed reading about our travels.
    We’re losing our blogging momentum now that we’re back – so much to do back here and so little time ;o)

    Hi – it’s great to hear you like our blog! I had a look at yours, but my Spanish is not good so I just enjoyed the pictures and video clips. You might also like to take a look at one of our websites – ChewTV – it is an online TV station by young people for young people. http://www.chewtv.com/

    We are from Bristol in England. Our city has a special sister city relationship with Guangzhou in China.
    A few people have been looking at our blog, but mostly they are friends and family. However, not so much since we have returned!

    Hi,
    I grew up in Guangzhou, China and studied in the same school as Polly :) I’m in US right now, and I was so exited to see my school uniform on that pic. :]
