Josh's Birthday!
There was no way that Josh's birthday would pass by silently in China. We had to celebrate and we had to celebrate big. Finally Josh is able to say that he is 24 and I am also 24, instead of his usual "Yah I am with an older woman"...lol.
We had work in the morning so I gave Josh his present at midnight. I gave him an acoustic guitar. I was so nervous because I wasn't sure he was going to like it or think that it was a waste of money. Luckily he LOVED it and has been playing it every day since :). Destiny made him milk chocolate and dark chocolate fudge which he loved too, because the chocolate here is very different from back home.

In the evening of his birthday the school hosted him for dinner in the school's restaurant. Our boss came and some English teachers as well. That huge flame was a candle, which sang happy birthday and then broke apart. It was the strangest but coolest thing and I want to take a whole bunch back home. 
After dinner some of us went out for Karoke (it is huge in China). Above is Josh and I with Destiny and our doctor friend Li Ming. He was our doctor when we all got really sick and since then we have all become good friends. He is so laid back, funny and amazing to be around.
Here is Josh and Mr. Song singing their trademark song Edelweiss. Josh is absolutely hilarious when he is singing!
The one in the center is another Chinese English teacher, Casey. It was the first time we have been out with her and she was a lot of fun.
See how happy Josh is? That was his face the entire night.
GOOD TIMES!!!
