Day 5

Today was a good day. Probably because I had coffee.

We met up with Randy's cousin Vivienne today and had lunch. She's on the news in HK, and she went to British boarding school, so she speaks English really well. She's a really cool person. Afterwards she took Anastassia and me to a mall, which was a lot of fun. I ended up finding 2 game day shirts for really cheap. And I have a picture of a really funny picture that I will post soon.

We also made friends with 2 other exchange students. One girl is from the Netherlands, and the other is from Chicago. They met up with us at HK Times Square, and we ate dinner at a really cool Shanghai-style restaurant. I officially love vegetarian dumplings.

After that, the four of us hung out in hall 1 for a while. This is the first time since I've gotten here that I haven't taken a nap or gone to sleep really early, so hopefully this will get me on a normal schedule.

Well, it's about 1 am here, so I'm going to go to sleep. Skype/AIM/facebook me!

Its January 20th. I think it is kind of ironic that the rotation day at school is D-Day....

Hey Noelle! I'm glad you're starting to get settled in and meeting people! I hope the rest of your semester goes smoothly, but don't get too discouraged by the homesickness and realizing you don't understand whats going on anywhere...trust me it gets better :). I'm going to keep up with your blog, I'm excited :)

Hope you had a great "Day 6"! ;)

Noelle,

I'm glad you aren't homesick anymore. BELIEVE ME...nothing is happening here....in fact, I am reading your blog for excitement.

You have to bring home a CD of the cantonese pop....I can't imagine how that sounds. However, I don't think it could be worse than country music.

And, I never realized how funny you are!

Please try to get the pictures up for those of us that don't have facebook!

Have a great day!

Mrs. Terri
