Wednesday, July 11, 2012


I have finally found a reasonably priced place whose food is pretty good. The guy who runs it is very loud, but in a good, understandable way. No extra words, "vegetables, don't put meat." 

Everyone seems beat today, maybe it's because it was so hot yesterday when our language partners took us out into Beijing. We went to see the Olympic Stadium yesterday. The Bird's Nest was pretty nice. I liked the courtyard in front. It has a really cool view of all the freaky new buildings that have been built recently in Beijing. The IBM building is weird. I dont know why they built it that way. 

Yesterday was really hot and we walked a lot. Hopefully, since it's supposed to rain a lot, it will just get better. 

Speaking class lasts for an hour and is just that, an hour of speaking. We are having culture class today. We are carving traditional Chinese seals. It should be good. 

On Monday, we painted, which was great because now I know how to draw pandas. Expect to see them on everything!

Tomorrow, I am going to go scout out the zoo. Everyone seems to want to go see the pandas with me, so there are going to be a lot of crazed MoHos at the zoo on Sunday.

Oh, and this weekend we are going to the Great Wall! Yay!
