It was an emotional morning. I hate goodbyes and all of the students were really sad to see us go. Even the ones who couldn't make it to our hotel to see us off, still sent messages of sadness. I hope to stay in contact with everybody who gave me their information, and it makes me grateful for social networking sites like QQ and Facebook which make connecting instantaneous and open. Sadly, I know there are some faces I may never see again in person but nonetheless, I enjoyed their company and rest assured, taught me something about China.
We left for Wuxi and arrived this afternoon. Although my time in Tianjin is over for now, I know I'll be returning at some point in my life. The memories and experiences there are some of my life's fondest.
