Another day of studying here on campus. I was able to listen to Eric's sermon from last week online today! It was great - Jeremiah 1. i'm still waiting for my bookbag. i am having to borrow ppl's converter things to charge my computer so can usually only get it plugged in for an hour to charge... the battery doens't fully charge so i only have about 3 hours of battery life.... i am starting to speak some chinese with fuyuan (servers) and other service ppl... hoping to conquer it this summer! but i am also working on my spanish so that is a plus! lol...
Miss you all! We are trying to try to figure out this whole homework thing constantly so we can find time to go see stuff in the afternoons in Beijing, including the Peking Opera, the Acrobatics show, the Beijing Dance Festival and the Peking Variety Show. All are suppose to be good and have great culture. This Saturday we are going to the Temple of Heaven and the Forbidden City.... should be great. the weekend after we are on a trip to Shanghai (i think). anyway, back to studying for a little while then off to bed. miss and love you all!!!!!!
Oh, on a side note, I've been pretty impressed with the food I have been eating -- so many different vegs than normal, including turnips, peppers (i know right!), bok choy, etc. the cow stomach though is a little chewy! lol.... I have found a digestive/ biscuit (its a word for a British cracker) that is high in fiber so i try to eat a few everyday to help with my digestion and 'moving things along!' lol... also try to take a vitamin at least once a few days... still drinking my green tea every morning, so that's been a nice regular in my diet. Today, we went to have brunch on campus at a place that served american food and I had the chance to try "chocolate milk tea - in english" it was amazing!!! it tasted just how it sounds... but i've never heard of it in the states. will definately be making it a drink of choice here. learning more about food everyday and really can't believe just how adventurous i have been in eating things.. i am still a visual eater, so if it looks like eye balls (even if ppl say it taste like a bean) I won't eat it! Not too much has changed!
Hope you enjoy your day!
