This week has been particularly busy with preparing for midterms.
I managed to come out of them unscathed, however, scoring at least 90% on all of them. I'd like to thank Pleco, Anki and the several Chinese students who selflessly answered all of my stupid questions.
I also picked up a gig tutoring four 8 year old boys once a week. Yes you read correctly, quantity: 4 age: 8. Needless to say, I see a lot of Simon says in my future.
Tomorrow evening I will be heading to Shanghai until Tuesday (with the permission of my teachers, Mom). We will be taking the slow train overnight and we will be sitting in the "hard seats". At least I'll be with some friends to help the 12 hours go by more quickly.
We will also be visiting Suzhou on the return trip. Sometime next week I'll make a proper post that will include photos from the trip.
Until then, we're heading to an all you can eat and drink restaurant to celebrate the end of midterms, cheers!
