On Monday morning Mike and I headed to the gym. My neck was really hurting this morning so I didn't workout for very long. In the afternoon, I had another Mandarin class with Tom and Grace. In the evening, I worked on my outline for my paper on cross-cultural communication.
On Tuesday morning Carmen surprised us by arriving half and hour earlier than normal. This morning it was pretty rainy and the traffic was bad on the road. I am really enjoying my time at the school. Although I can hardly communicate, I am finding that I am having a growing love for each of my brothers and sisters. It was hard to leave Tuesday night and I would have loved to stay. Once again we stayed over at Carmen's house for the night.
On Wednesday morning we got breakfast from a street vendor near Carmen's house. Grace and Tom joined us at the school and got to see what we were doing. When it was time to leave, Peter (the person in charge) asked if I wanted to ride with him on his bike. It was a unique experience riding through northern Beijing. The bike itself is battery-operated - pretty slick. Peter dropped me off at the bus stop where I met the rest of the gang. On the bus ride home I had a bit of a sleep. There were so many people on the bus that we couldn't get off at our stop. In the evening we headed over to see our friends from hot pot. We have been really busy and haven't got to see them a whole lot. Back at the flat I worked on homework for the rest of the evening.
Things are getting busy here so my posts will probably be a little rushed.
Blessings
