2 weeks left

时间过得很快。 啊。。。我不想回国。 :(

I've been eating lots of good food lately. Those food that you should not miss in Beijing. I don't really save up now. I mean, c'mon I only have 2 weeks left. :( Damn, time flies!

So last week, we all went out with the teachers. It was fun and it was good timing too because the next day, our head teacher (Gao 老师) told us that it is her last day teaching us. BLCU is sending her to continue study another language (Portugese) because there will be a lot of students coming from Brazil next year. Well, the new teacher replacing her is not bad either but I do miss Gao 老师。

We all went for go-kart! It is the first time for most of us. It was so fun! One thing I hate about go-kart is because of the smelly helmet. I'm just so glad that they provide us disposable cap for hygiene purpose. In fact, the helmet is not smelly at all.

Oh, I finally checked out the salsa club here. Salsa live band was playing for 30 minutes or so when we first got there at around 11pm. Then, a rock band took over the stage. It was a disappointment. We didn't go to a salsa club to listen to a rock band ok.

Here's a video of salsa caribe.

Good progress

I can actually converse in Mandarin now on MSN with my friends. As I learn more and more new words each day, I actually type faster now than before. I think that my mandarin typing skills is better than my writing now because I can't remember so many words but I will know what it is when I see the character.
I'm just so happy with my progress. 我觉得我有很大的进步!!! 真高兴!!!
