Peng Cheng's Rose Story
 

Peng Cheng is one of my good friends in Jinzhou. He works for a local bank. In his spare time, he hangs out on the Internet. Here's his home page.

 Carla King

You're a single woman, just turned 40, where do you want to go today? All over China, of course - alone on your motorcycle. Just do it, said Carla. And she did. Then she did it again in India a year later. Now she's writing the book about it. Learn more about Carla in Chuck @ China 3.

Pu Hong

Pu Hong (English name Nora or Laura depending on her mood) was one of my best students in China. Now graduated from Suzhou Zhong Shan College, she is living in the U.S., where she was recently married. Before she left China in January of 2001, she created a cool website of her own. She wrote a few stories about me on it. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), the whole site is in Chinese so who knows what she wrote.

Bronwyn Bedient

Bronwyn came to China following her graduation from the University of North Carolina in 1999. She planned on teaching in Jinzhou for the summer. Two years later she's still in teaching in China; now she's in Changchun in Jilin province. Here's the website she started when she got to Jinzhou. But she's even farther behind then I in updating. Still, some cool writing from a cool grrrll.

Lisa McClure's China Diary

Lisa and her adopted daughter Lara taught at Liaoning Institute of Technology in Jinzhou in 1999 and 2000. Lisa has a useful page if you are considering bringing your child with you to China or if you want info on adopting in China.

Snow

Snow was a student in my evening class in Jinzhou in 2001. During the daytime, she studied advertising at the university. But she took my adult evening class to improve her English.

Actually, her English is as good as many of my English majors. And she holds her own with my adult students.

Her boyfriend King gave her this homepage. (In Chinese).

Doraimon (Rickey) and Rurika

Here's two cool friends I met in Jinzhou and had a lot of fun with. Rickey is a Chinese guy. Rurika is a Japanese girl. Rurika came to Jinzhou to study Chinese at Jinzhou College. She use to surf the net at one of the Internet Cafés here. It was owned by Rickey. They fell in love. To document their love story, they created a web page. Rickey is now working at an Internet company in Beijing while Rurika is now at Newcastle University in England continuing her international studies.  (Mostly Chinese)
