I’m sitting in my apartment right now drinking joy tea from Starbucks (thanks Michelle!) and listening to Christmas carols. I love Christmas! I wonder what it will be like here on December 25 since the Taiwanese don’t celebrate Christmas.
This morning I finished sending out all of our Christmas cards. We thought about mailing them in bulk to someone and having them mail them in Winnipeg for us, but get this: it is cheaper to send mail from here (13NT= 35 cents each) than it is within Canada!! Crazy eh? We are figuring out that this is a very strange place where certain things are cheaper than at home, but most things are around the same price, and some are more expensive.
Other news which is very important is that I got my very first Christmas present already! That is right! The bombers will be in the Grey Cup! Can you believe it!! In chinese we say Zhen (pronounced jen) de ma??? I listened to the game the next day since I didn’t want to wake up at 4:00am. Ben had already looked at the score but he promised to keep it a secret and he did a great job since he was probably dying to tell me. Bombers against Saskatchewan! It doesn’t get much better. Sadly we will be in the Philippines when the game is on and we will most likely not get to listen to it, so I think that will be one game I just check the score on. My brother and his girlfriend Tanya will be at the game!! I am so excited for them, that will be an amazing game! Labour day classic x 100! The colours of this webpage are in honour of them!
I had better get to work on our Ephesians teaching- such a great book! Hope you have a wonderful day!
