China's kind of funny.
Funny in the sense that when they have a national holiday (like next week's Labor Day holiday from May 1-7) they make everyone in the country work over the weekend to make up the days they will eventually be given off. That means that even though they call the holiday a "week-long" holiday, the number of days we actually have off is significantly less, with the added bonus that we get to put in an 8-day work week.
I'm not explaining it well... mainly because I don't understand. At any rate, I should be used to it by now (as we've gone through the whole thing twice before) but the fact that I have a marathon week of teaching under my feet makes me crazy.
How many days till school's over? Oh, wait... they haven't decided yet.
Honestly.
Like Reader's Digest for people who don't want to waste their time stalking me.

Ewww! So in other words they don't really want you to get any time off for the Holiday! That's insane.
Kudos to you because I couldn't deal with not knowing when my last day of teaching would be!
