Excellent news: this week I have been toying with the idea of trying more dairy products. I have been eating yogurt for about a week now, so I decided to try some cheese. No problem. Tonight I treated myself to some Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey ice cream and so far so good.
Could this be? I'm off the dairy-free?
I don't think I could go all out eating dairy all the time, but it is incredible to know that I don't have to order pizza without cheese anymore. Now, is it a coincidence that my naturopath meds came in and I have been taking them for a week and a half? I don't know, and I am not asking questions. Just crossing my fingers.

I really can't comprehend the fact that it has been a month since I last posted. I definitely need to do better.
The beginning of the school year has been an awesome experience. I love that I am teaching my students from last year. Teaching grade 10 is a nice experience as well, it is such a different feeling working on the high school floor. This year I am the teacher leader for Student Council so I am really looking forward to getting involved in the student side of things as well.
I am making sure to get out, see the sights and try new restaurants. Tonight a group of us (around 24 people) went to a restaurant we call "Garlic." The name speakes for itself. The food was incredible, in particular I was a huge fan of the fish that was cooked 3 different ways and the roasted garlic prawns. We had 10 people at our table with food leftover and the bill came to about 100 MOP each = $15 CDN. That included beer!
Hellooooo... to all you Grey's Anatomy fans you will be happy to hear that Cassie and I watched the season premiere this morning, while eating a celebratory breakfast. Amazing. It's the little things that make life abroad bearable for extended periods of time. Grey's Anatomy is one of these simple pleasures.
Lots of things coming up: my second sprint tri- this one in HK Disneyland on Oct.18th, a one-week holiday in Guilin, China at the end of October, and a 10k run and weekend in Bangkok in November. December brings the Macau half-marathon and of course, Christmas in India.
I know that I have it good here. SO I am committed to making the absolute most of this last year away. Keep in touch and keep me updated.
Miss and love,
Lisa
