4 Days Before Beijing

Wow. Time sure does fly. The months of anticipation are finally coming to a head and I can almost picture a hazy outline of the Beijing airport. Last week my friend Charlie showed me a website called italki.com, which allows you to connect with people around the world and create language partners. Since then I have already made connections with students and teachers around the Beijing. It not only has helped me practice for the Intensive Chinese Immersion Program this summer, but has raised my anticipation level even higher. Just the other day I was talking with a Chinese teacher in Beijing and she was telling me about all of the things I should do there. She even gave me her contact information in case I need help with something while I am in Beijing!

Alright, so I am going to try to update this blog every day if I am near a computer. In the links section, I'll be adding sites that I find interesting. For now, I put up a link to my pictures in China that will hopefully be up-to-date. Make sure you check out the bar of YouTube videos above this post. Occasionally I will change it up when I feel the time is right. At the moment you're getting a little segment I am calling "I'm Livin' On Chinese Rock." Enjoy and leave me some comments! If there's anything you want to know about or have any other questions for me, let me know.
