The morning was spent giving piano lessons to the two kids at GW. Later, we went home to do some laundry and work on homework while watching MTVchina (or something like it) and their "tributes" to black actors like Will Smith, Halle Berry, and Denzel Washington. A Chinese guy in a do-rag and a Boston Celtics baggy shirt hosted the program (wow, talk about your wannabes). A "tribute" to Jennifer Lopez and her accomplishments followed.
We invited all the foreign teachers on our campus, which amounted to 5 including us, to dinner. We were preparing finishing touches when the three of them came by at 6:30 pm. The food turned out great and we had plenty. We watched TV (a biography of John Paul II and a documentary on the "dark side of Mt. Everest"), looked through our DVDs, and chit-chatted. It was an enjoyable evening with hopes of being repeated.
This was L's first official dinner as a "wife" so she was a bit nervous how the food would turn out and she made loads of it...but it turned out really well and we had leftovers, yum!
