Victory!

Thanks to the fact that Rachel, one of my roommates, is a internet smart ass, I can now have a blog from China.

Sweet. I know, right? Take that, government censorship!

I'm about to head off to dinner, but thought that I would give a basic run down of the past couple of weeks:

I'm living in China at Beida university (Peking University). I'm enrolled in (stupid) english classes but also have an independent study project that allows me to work as a lab assistant for one of the research labs on campus.

So far, our program has mostly done larger tourist spots: Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Great Wall...

In two weeks, I will be camping out on the Great Wall (yes, I think that's a bragging right).

Until then, I'll be... doing the usual.

Expect numerous stories -- funny and "...eh" alike -- as I document my attempt to assimilate.

Hi! :D Just popping in to say that I was pointed here by whoever posted in your LJ, and I'll try to keep an eye on this.

(Funnily enough, I'm taking East Asian Civilizations this semester, with a focus on China. \o/)
