August Squat Challenge
Here in Chengdu there is a GGI ( Girl Gone International) wechat group which also has a fitness sub-group. As fate would have it August had a squat challenge and I decided to join to prove to myself I can keep a commitment.
…Coronavirus Lockdown
I should have actually written this during the lockdown, but was curious about what was waiting for us upon our return to Chengdu. My family and my friend who came with us for the Lunar New Year all got stuck in the village when the lockdown came into effect. For two weeks, no one was allowed to go anywhere including leaving the village.
…Hello Neighborhood Hospital
{Note: I wanted to add photos to this post, but I was super slow. So while reading keep that in mind.}

A New Semester, A New School
Note: I started this post in September and finished it recently.
There is nothing like starting the school year and finding out that you won’t be teaching at the same school you have taught at for the last two years.

While this means I will have a relaxing month of September, except for traveling to Leshan to teach at a kindergarten which luckily I only had to go once during the whole month.
T. Lhamo Fashion Show
On October 20th, D and I decided to attend the T. Lhamo fashion show in Chengdu as one of our friends would be modeling in it. T. Lhamo is a Tibetan fashion designer who is originally from Khyungchu (Hongyuan) County. I actually forgot that I follow the brand on instagram, because I think helping Tibetan brands get more followers and exposure is important. So when I realized I already knew the brand I was excited to actually attend the fashion show in person.
