Chang Cheng

So I survived my first week of class! It was a bit rough around the edges, but I think the get up at dawn to bed by 10 thing is starting to work for me. It was only a 3 day week though :D We moved our weekend to thursday/friday for a Chinese holiday. But that means next week is a 7 day school week! Wooohooooo. Its gonna be rough. 

BUT over our "weekend" we went to the GREAT WALL OF CHINA! It was pretty spectacular. It is SO old and so intricately made and it goes on FOREVER! So many sets of stairs and towers. But the views were worth it. The mountains in the states seem pretty lame compared to these. They are all around you and in the far off distance you can see shadows of MORE mountains. There will be pictures to come, I promise! 

The only other "news" is the thunderstorms here are pretty insane. They come on really fast and are HUGE. They make for exciting bike rides let me tell you. 

Hope I survive this week! Hope everyone else enjoys there weekend! Think of me sitting in class...
