Hostel Time

I'm safely back in Beijing, and now commencing to make my life extremely complicated haha.

I just cancelled the deal with my Landlady, though I think I may have to pay a small fee for that. I'm going to spend the next few days in a hostel while figuring out job stuff, because I don't want to pay for three months of housing and then find out I'm going to be in Shanghai....

It's worth it just to hostel it up for a while. Besides, there's no better way to meet people!

Anyway, the best news is that I finally secured www.quicksloth.com after emailing its German owner a bunch of times, and a tip from Jake (he noticed that it had been released). Get prepared for its awesomeness! I don't know when I will find the time to build a site...but sometime.....

Tomorrow I have an online editing test with Edelman PR, and if I do ok on that I will probably get an interview for a job. That should be interesting, to say the least.

Tonight will involve me both moving into the hostel and bargaining with Coco, the landlady, about trying to get my downpayment back. That should be interesting!

Right now I'm sitting in a cafe just outside of Beijing Waiguo Yu Da Xue 北京外国语大学 (Beijing Foreign Language University), waiting on Gilbert's roommate to get back home from work because all of my belongings that I did not take to Shanghai are locked in his room!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Life is SO crazy right now!

Anyway, I bought a new Business Chinese studies book in Shanghai, so I suppose I will delve into that for a few hours now until I can get to my belongings.

Enough rambling....time to study!

Peace
