Update! 1st of all be amazed that we have had internet access 2 days in a row and have been able to use it! That's a very abnormal occurrence in the world of Xi An Bodi School. Anyway, there's nothing much to tell except that life went on as usual; classes were long(but informative), the majority of our group seemed ready to fall asleep, and we all(w/ the exception of me) are ready for the rain to "come again some other day" if not never. On second thought, last night (Monday the 21st) some of us had a pretty cool experience. We (5 or 6 Americans) attended an English summer camp attended by Chinese high school graduates/university students presentation. Quite a mouthful, eh? Anyway we all went with some friends that we'd made during the Saturday night "get-to-know-you" session. It wasn't a huuuuge thing, but it was cool because we got to interact with the Chinese youth in a way that would not have been possible had we just said hi, got their email addresses and moved on. It was, in a very subtle-barely obvious way, a global interaction (is that the right word?) that afforded the kids who went a view of foreign teenagers as themselves;having fun. What else..........? Um, I think that's all right now, but will update when there is more news or when i have another chance to use the internet.
Bye all,
