Today was pretty ordinary with a full day of class from 8:30-4:15. I spent one of my classes flipping through Chinese note cards instead of paying attention and the other learning about Chinese traditions and festivals, which was pretty interesting. After class a group of people went back for another cooking class, which meant that I got to nap while my roommate was gone. It was definitely one of the best naps of my life after such a long, cold weekend.
When I got up I did a lot of necessary homework including my online homework and a project for one of my classes here. By the time all of that was done, it was already 8:30 so I took my first solo trip for street noodles, or “street nudes” as we now call them. It was actually really relaxing to have some time to myself to just walk around and take in all of my surroundings.
After eating I partook in some group Chinese studying which was actually pretty fun as we made up the most ridiculous ways to remember words. One of my personal favorites is for youshihou, which in Chinese means sometimes, so we remember it with the phrase “Yo, she a hoe sometimes.” After some ridiculous yet somewhat productive studying, we eventually turned to some youtube video watching (outrageous fun is pretty funny if you are interested) until we had to call it quits and get some sleep.
