After a hot yet fun month at Fudan, the July semester is finally over. I had my final test for the semester yesterday. All i had to do was have a conversation with the teacher about why i want to study chinese, so i had to say lots of Fei Hua (bullshit). Then i had to read some sentences from the text but unfortunately i was pretty nervous then so i totally messed up all the tones. oh well. the marks in this program are so made up, the teacher probably picked a number between 86-96 to make everyone happy.

Today we had our closing ceremonies. the people who were leaving after a month got their certicates there and also ate dinner. the food there was pretty crappy...and fromhow i 'm feeling now, i think it was ...yah pretty aweful. my muscles are hurting. that's not a good sign!

anyways, my roommate is leaving tomorrow so i'll get a new roommate! whoopey! i heard that there are a lot of Japanese students coming this month. i dont know if thats a good thing or not. tomorrow im going to play some badminton tomorrow downtown, if i can find it. i have no clue how..but i'll try somehow!

the past 2 days i've gone to an internet cafe with some schoolmates and played counter strike, startcraft and warcraft, just to kick off the end of the semester. its quite cheap to play. 2.5rmb an hour for pretty decent computers. (less than 50cents an hour). that's where u go to meet those really good korean players playing starcraft. of course i die very fast but i still had fun...sorta heh, and they're good at CS too. very good.

anyways...gotta sleep, back hurting, strange.
