Jumping Off Buildings in Macau (June 2013)
There are lots of us heading for the Wuhan Train Station on a Friday after school in June. So many, in fact, that it is sort of like an end of the year school trip / party. We have eleven “jumpers” and five who have decided not to jump for money or health or other reasons. They may be talked into it when the time comes though – that remains to be seen. We have been organizing this event for over a month now with the help of a few of our colleagues. We have been able to recruit this present group of adventure seekers and some die-hard cheerleaders.

Keep smiling even if life doesn't go to plan
We all know that life never goes to plan. We do our best and then suddenly something comes in the way and we discover difficulties. In my previous post I described my "water transfer" project which I did that particular weekend. It seemed everything went well, but… as I suspected, there was a "surprise" waiting for me. The following Monday a friend visited me and we went for a walk to the little dam. I looked at the trough and it was only 80% full. I checked the water tank and surely enough the water wasn't getting out of the tank. "Oh well, that's a job for the next weekend" - I thought to myself and continued enjoying the walk with my friend. What should I do? I didn't have enough time to fix it, and worrying and stressing about it surely wouldn't help.
