Lessons and such



My tutor, Rosie, who I meet once a week, has been so much help! So far, she has taught me how to have basic conversations, explain my family to people, say the date and time, and count to 99,000. Yah, that's right. 99,000. Be impressed. She gave me this beautiful, little bag that she bought on vacation in Beijing and my very own pair of chopsticks! After my next lesson, we are going to cook some traditional Chinese food and then chow down.

Also, it's already MAY-wǔ yuè(五月)! Hopefully I will get my guarantee forms back this month. I'm friends with a lot of students from France, Germany, and Florida who are also outbounds to Taiwan, and a couple of them have their forms back now. It'd be really cool to know approximately where I will be staying for a year and to start applying for my visa. Well, zàijiàn!
