Week at a Glance

The executive summary of this week:
Monday & Tuesday: There was no school due to exams, I stayed home mostly, except for Chinese class. I also went shopping looking for MP3 players, but couldn't find HD models at the Xinguang Mitsukoshi.
Wednesday: Culture class was especially dull. Chinese was o.k. though our teacher was weird. In the evening at choir, met some interesting foreigners (who are actually living here permanently). Concert is coming up.
Thursday: A day at school. Watched Shrek 2 in Domestic Science, spoke at a meeting between the school & host families, and got mistaken for a 'real' Chinese-speaking student during P.E. by guest speakers. Bluffed.
Friday: School trip. Had some fun BBQing and talking to friends, also did a four-storey rock climb 1st try with no slips. Was about the limit of my strength, very challenging. I almost gave up and the shaking was visible from the ground.
Saturday: Went to a movie with Scott & my host brother. I liked it, it was really beautiful & with I think a nice message on life. Didn't quite understand everything, because it was Japanese with Chinese subs. Take that, people who THINK they watch foreign films.
Sunday: Choir trip to Danshui all day. It had it's moments, most of the fun was concentrated on the hour & a half roaming about freely with schoolmates.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this quick look at what I've been up to. Lots is coming up in the future & I'm getting better at Chinese. For in-depth looks take a look back through the week--quality & suitability of content not guaranteed!
