Almost in School

Well the past week has been kind of difficult. At the beginning of the week I was transferred to my room where I will be staying. It is basically a hotel room that is a 25 minute walk from campus with walls that are unbelievably thin. Thankfully I have only heard music and conversation. Getting my room took quite some time to get in because no one knew where I was going to be living and your name has to be on "the list" to get in. That was half of Monday. The other half of Monday was spent trying to figure out what classes to choose because most of the classes on the list were different than what I petitioned for. Before I could get any information on class descriptions the office closed so I had to wait until Tuesday to start figuring out. Tuesday came around and I get class descriptions and times and I was ready to go. I went down to the Registration office and it turns out I have no student number yet. Awesome. I finally got my student number on Thursday but when I went down to the Registration office I was not in their system. So as of right now I am not registered for any classes yet. Luckily on Tuesday I got class times so I was able to show up to some classes. It turns out that I got bad information and missed every class on Thursday because I had wrong times. I am still trying to get a laundry card so I can do my laundry.
Now for the fun things. I have been juggling everyday on campus working on my four ball and five ball juggling. I got a couple people interested in what I was doing and I even started teaching two people but they had class so they only learned for about five minutes. It really seems that no one knows how to juggle or how to use any flow props. But it has only been one week and it is kind of cold outside. Maybe they are hiding from the cold. On Wednesday I got to go on an adventure down to the mall and I got to watch The Hobbit (again) with Chinese subtitles this time. I actually learned a little Chinese from that. The school has a pretty interesting campus. I walked for maybe two hours following the river around campus. There is a little part of the river blocked off where they keep a bunch of ducks, geese, and a couple of peacocks. The Chinese beer I have tried so far is Tsingtao (#1 Beer in China!) which is a Lager and I also got to try Suntory which is a Japanese lager and much sweeter than Tsingtao. Still haven't found anything dark. I miss Guinness Draught.
