Had class this morning. It was fine, I managed to remember everything I needed to. After class I spent the afternoon studying for the next lesson, and finishing up the core homework for tomorrow. Then I went out and bought a tea pot ($40 kuai) an eraser (my pencil doesn’t have one) and tape. Came… Continue reading October 8 – Continuation

Studied for most of the morning. Basically got through all of the 10th lesson, and got the math homework done. Had a good lunch and then went to class at 2pm. It was disp class, so we got to find out changes they wanted to our proposal and who our research tutors are. I got… Continue reading October 7 – Busy

Woke up again for class this morning. The test went fine. Afterward, I wrote out the 10th lessons characters, finished up the math homework from last week, which i’ve been procrastinating, and got about half way done on the math for this upcoming week. I also got a bit further in the core class homework… Continue reading October 6 – Class Resumes

Spent most of the day inside studying. It was colder today. I feel reasonably confident that I know all the words I’ll need tomorrow, but it did take pretty much all day to get them all. I spent a couple hours with my Chinese tutor going over stuff, and then went to dinner with her… Continue reading October 5 – Studying

Another fairly normal day, I’ll continue posting the interesting events I encounter, but I’ll be cutting down a bit on post length since it’s hard to dedicate half an hour every day to this activity. I spent a lot of time studying chinese, and some time doing programming. I got out again in the afternoon,… Continue reading October 4 – Weekend

I woke up at 8 this morning. Again, spent most of the morning on the computer. I studied a fair bit of Chinese, spent some time looking through travel sites, and some time on math homework. As to travel sites, I looked up flights and hotels for both a possible trip to inner Mongolia, and… Continue reading October 3 – Break

I woke up at 7, out of habit more than anything else, which was surprising since I’d been up until 2am. I continued to deal with the computer stuff I started last night, and geolocated all the photos I posted yesterday. I also moved this website over to my online hosting, so it will hopefully… Continue reading October 2 – Relaxation

I woke up at about 8, catching up on some sleep after the mountain adventure yesterday. I showered and packed up, and fiddled around on the computer for a little bit before heading down to breakfast at 8:30. We checked out of the hotel at 9 am, and took the bus over to jinxi (i… Continue reading October 1 – The Return

I woke up a bit before my alarm went off at 7, probably a lingering effect of yesterday. I got on my computer for the hour that I had, and made some progress at both a math problem, and some programming. I went down to some breakfast of porridge, some preserved vegetables, and hard boiled… Continue reading September 30 – Upwards

I was roused by gongs at about 4:30, and snoozed until my alarm went off at 4:45. Jeremy and I got up, and walked outside, it was still dark out. The sky was totally clear, and there was an amazing view of the milky way, I got cold after a couple minutes and went back… Continue reading September 29 – Onwards
