First Week of School

I'm in the middle of the first week of school and so far I'm learning alot but it's kind of boring sitting in class all day, especially without having my laptop in front of me (like at Oregon). Most of the classmates are from Europe. They're cool, but it's frustrating when they start speaking in their native tongues and I can't understand. Also, they dont really seem interested in Chinese culture so I often go exploring on my own. I think they're pretty much just here on vacation. Oh well.

Went to a remote part of the great wall yesterday and it was absolutely amazing!!!!!! We'll go to a touristy spot later on but it's definitely nice to see an untouched area. Then at night, we went to go see the Chinese Acrobats. They were awesome too, much better than what I saw as a kid at Magic Mountain.
