The internet at our apartment is down. Which sucks, because we're both obsessively addicted to it, and now we just sit around wondering what to do. NOT FUN. Though we did have a rather interesting game of old maid (which neither of us remembers how to play). We're in the school computer lab right now, because going a day without internet is HARD.
The last two days in class we've been learning characters. Thanfully some of them I already know.
您, 貴, 姓, 你, 我, 名, 字, 是, 哪, 國, 叫, 什, 人, 中, 美, 英, 日, 本, 台, 灣, 德, 尼, 加, 拉, 瓜, 嗎, 不, 李, 王, 他, 她, 小, 老, 姐, 師, 先, 生, 呢, 華, 好
They're basically introductions, country names, and basic stuff like "you", "I/me", and "good". I actually was already familiar with 17 of them, so that made it easier.
Every week we need to spend 2 hours listening to Mandarin. I totally filled my two hours by watching Summer's Tail again.
