Language Parnters!
So today is Wednesday morning and last night we went to go eat dinner with our new language partners. It was pretty cool because they don't know much Englsih and we don't know much Chinese so we were all helping each other out. It is fun to finally be able to speak like a conversation in Chinese and have people actaully know what you are talking about :D :D :D Yesterday morning I was also talking to these breakfast vendors for like 5 minutes and I could understand most everything they said! It is so awesome! If you don't understand you just say 聽不懂.. 你可以說慢一點 (Ting bu dong, ni ke yi shuo man yi dian/ I hear but don't understand, can you speak a little slower) This is a very useful sentence haha. Today I have a test on lesson 4 in my textbook and I think I am going to do fine, hence I am not studying right now and hurrying to write this blog. Oh! yesterday my friend also helped me buy a Lady GaGa CD so I can hopefully get a ticket to her concert that is going to be in like 2 weeks.....like a 10 minute drive from here :) ....... EEEE I hope I do get tickets. I don't think there is really anything new to update you guys on. School and play haha I guess I will just put up some random pictures for everyone to look at haha I shall update latah!!! Goodbye!
