Early this morning, two of my favorite people boarded a plane, China-bound. Cara and Jexa, armed with 100% deet, will spend 6 weeks teaching English in China, which I'm sure will prove to be quite an adventure. Then they will part ways to tour around the wild wild east.
Cara (Care-ah) is the sweetest person that ever walked the earth. Whether you need a good meal, a shoulder to cry on or a good laugh, she's reliably there. Her energy is amazing-- always planning excursions and trips and finding fun new adventures. I'm pretty sure the 3 months she is gone will be rather uneventful for the rest of us...
Jexa's great too. She'll tell you exactly what you need to hear, whether it feels good or not. You can count on her to be honest and up front- she's not afraid to tell you when you're wrong (which is something we ALL NEED). She operates with everyone's best interest in mind, and often confronts issues others are afraid to. Always taking life by the horns, you know you're going to be OK when reveling with Jexa...
So, these two pillars of my sanity are gone for the rest of the summer. I'll live vicariously through them and their photo blogs (since they're both picture fiends), emails and blog posts. They're doing something I'm way too chicken to try.
LOVE YOU JEXA AND CARA, I'm anxiously awaiting your return (even though you're not even there yet!). Let me know if you need targistat. <3!!!!
