Well I finally got confirmation on my last day which will be April 28th. I was pissed when I got the email. I’ve since gotten a lot less angry about it. I’m still upset because I don’t like being jacked around or taken advantage of, but the idea of getting the fuck out of here 2 weeks earlier than I’d anticipated and having 1 less week to teach really, really appeals to me. I can barely believe I’ll be back in civilization in a matter of weeks. I also couldn’t be more excited about it.

I typed out an angry, indignant response when I got to work today which I didn’t send. I then typed out another shorter, less indignant, but still clearly angry email that I did send. I’m ok with that. As excited as I am to be leaving earlier than I’d anticipated I feel like I’ve been wronged. I also have been painting myself the victim in this whole episode which I don’t like. I have a tendency to do that. My anger was certainly justified, but I’ve mostly let it go at this point. I’m still debating as to whether I will leave a review of some kind about the school. I really would like to write one that’s as objective as possible, but in all likelihood laziness will win over. It usually does in these situations.

OMG I’m going to be leaving China soon! I’ve got a lot to do before my departure, but I should have enough time to get it all to fall into place. I can’t wait for the next phase of this adventure – and to be leaving Asia. I’ve been on this continent for long enough. Way too long, actually. Woot woot!
