On October 10, 2010 I embark on a 2 month trip to Beijing to open up THE FIRST Gap store in China. I will be part of the Beijing team in Chaobei Joy City, a large scale regional shopping center. By the end of 2010 there we will have 4 Gaps opened, 2 in Beijing and 2 in Shanghai.

Just bought a bunch of books to take to China

Jenny and I spent about an hour or more today at Barnes and Noble--mainly in the kids section.

I was looking for a bunch of books to entertain me while I am in China.
Honestly I am not a big book person, unless its one of those "book club" books that stay-at-home mom's like to read, so I started by looking up Harry Potter books and ended up with these:

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone


Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets



The Road


The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time


Wicked


Animal Farm (I loved this book when I was in school)


The Catcher in the Rye (Jenny's favorite book)


Life of Pi


The Time Traveler's Wife

MmmmmMm Uhhhh......

My flight has been pushed back for another week and a half D: Gaaahhhhhhh!!!!




Now instead of flying to Shanghai for training we will be flying directly to our home store in Beijing.

These things happen...

But that does mean we will be returning later as well.

Also, still no word on living arrangements :/
