Hey all, I'm heading out of town until October 5th. Alliance Beijing is meeting up with Alliance Shanghai and we'll be traveling the Silk Road together until then. Of course when I get back I will post a nice long post for ya'll with pictures. Let's just hope that my camera battery lasts that long, or I have enough memory for the amount of pictures we'll be taking.
So I had my first bi-weekly test today and it definitely reminded me of tests from Smith. Yes, there was a long essay as well. As usual, I made it up, but it was definitely "sentimental" and had a moral, as all Chinese essays prefer.
The other day I actually blew out all the electricity in my dorm room. It's fixed right now, but I'm hoping I'm not slapped with a huge bill at the end of my stay. Apparently, my charge converter blew up because it was on the wrong power setting. I was using it for the past few weeks with my WaterPik and on Wednesday night, I was holding the pick in one hand and turned it on with the other, and it exploded. I was sure I was going to die. Fortunately for you all, I didn't. :)
I don't think much else has happened since the HuTong post, but do anticipate my posts post-Silk Road trip. It'll be entertaining, just like it will be tonight when we have to sleep on "hard-sleepers" on the train.
Fun... I will post my own images for your enjoyment later.
All the way from hard-knock-sleeper life.
