Hey y’all just finished my first week of classes, it’s gonna be a great quarter. I really like my textbook, it explains grammar very well, my teachers are awesome and the new students are pretty legit. Although one thing, its still spring festival up in here so during the night it sounds  like a warzone with all the fireworks constantly going off around the city. Imma trying to go to sleep and im having flashbacks for all those highschool days I played COD, Yo was that a missile or just the world’s largest homemade mortar.


Anyways Chinese hasn’t gotten any easier I mean every time I feel I have learned more I talk with some Chinese people, or watch Chinese news and then I feel I haven’t made progress. Language learning curve I swear only steepens as I study. But its k, its just the first week and I’ve got a plan. So I keep getting pixar/Disney movies in Chinese. Most recent is how to train your dragon, ratatouille, and Mulan, YO all of the Mulan songs are in Chinese… that’s right. I can’t wait to rock “Be a Man” in the 汉语。 Back to the plan, each week im going to in depth study a movie, basically go line by line and write all the words I don’t know. As well as I have my textbook from western, I’m going to revisit. I’ve found the key to all this is how much you review. (I tried to put a Chinese word here but spent 10 minutes trying to express what it means in English, I’ll figure it out eventually)

What else, um went to a Beijing Frisbee meeting, and looks like im going to be overnight training it a couple weekends in the spring for some tournaments!

Little short, just a quick catch up, hope all is well, a more interesting entry incoming in about 4-6 days :D
