It's October 23rd, and I'm sitting in "Figaro" Cafe, in Xintiandi, Shanghai, doing a bit of reading, a bit of writing, some self-reflection, some future-planning, and listening to some Chinesepod with my headphones. I'm not doing all of this at once, of course, but moving from one thing to the next.
The last few weeks have been intense in the sense that I have not really been doing anything crazy, just trying to get to know some people, and trying to practice my Chinese whenever possible.
Recently I made two new friends, Ricky and Kerria (both Chinese). I've spent a good bit of time with them over the past week or so. Ricky's English is fantastic, and Kerria and have some nice "language-exchange" conversations where we banter back and forth in Chinese and English.
Other than that, not much is new really around here. I am on the verge of receiving a job offer, so I am mostly just preparing myself for that.
Anyway, I am going to post some pictures from my Hong Kong trip a bit ago that I never put up!
Here they come!
