Update!

Hello people of the world but mostly America, and mostly Ohio and Pennsylvania in America, but also whoever, aliens, Google, China, etc,

Just wanted to let you know that I haven't given up on writing here. I had a really good winter break. I traveled and hung out with Jake and relaxed in Beijing. We started classes a week ago and I am trying to get back in the swing of the language pledge and studying.

Thankfully I am much more "used" to both ACC and speaking Chinese now, so I'm having a richer experience already. Tonight I had dinner with my Chinese family and I could actually talk to them and understand what they said back to me. Last semester I nodded and said mmm (嗯) a lot.

So anyway, if you find this interesting, keep coming back. I'll have more pictures, and more regular updates, as the semester goes on. Tonight I have to get back to work though.

More later,
Jen

Oh man, totally wasn't expecting to find a new post when I visited your blog. I know what you mean about the nodding thing. I got really tired of nodding to show that I understood and instead started saying "okay okay okay". school is kind of nuts right now, january is going by so fast! i will have to get on skype sometime soon so we can chat. seems like the internet works better here in the mornings, so i might do that at some point...
