A puppy, a party and lots of packing!

First of all, let me introduce you to Pippa, a new member of the family and a mix between a Cavalier King Charles spaniel and a poodle... The result? A cavapoo!



We didn't really need to weigh her, but how cute does she look in the kitchen scales!!

On Saturday night we had our family and friends over for another little party (in the garden... In July?! Unheard of!) It was a really nice evening, completed with an English-Chinese dinner of prawn toasts and satay chicken... Yum yum! I was really overwhelmed by all the lovely presents I received, which I really wasn't expecting!



We also had fortune cookies. This wasn't actually my fortune, it was Charlotte's but I decided I liked it better than mine which was going on about the disappointments of today blah blah blah! So I have made my own fortune by stealing someone else's ;)

I have FINALLY finished packing. Though actually that involved packing up the London flat, unpacking all of that at home and then repacking what I want to ship. The result.... LOOOOOOOOONG!!!! 9 boxes (how have I filled 9 boxes?!) and 2 suitcases later I am finally done.

Ok well that it is it for now, only 8 days until I fly... Nerves are really kicking in! But also excited to get there and see my flat and neighbourhood, and to meet my new colleagues and class!

Zai jian!! Xx
