Currently, I have two soccer groups practicing under me. On top of that, the fellows and I are preparing for an English school musical. This mixed in with studying some programming languages and Chinese have been rough on me lately. Ugh, the tones and characters in Chinese have been kicking my butt.
What else is new... I think I am most likely going to be in Beijing this summer doing an internship, so if any of you are in the area, please let me know. That's about it. Nothing too exciting has happened recently, partially, because I've been pretty traveled out by this point. Over my long Chinese New Year vacation, I went to GuangZhou, Thailand, Beijing, and Hawaii. I went to Beijing again to spend time with my brother and show him around. It was really fun.
Oh! I went with my class to HangZhou to see the West Lake and to spend time with my students outside of the classroom. It was great to see them outside enjoying themselves.
Here are some pictures:
Sorry for rambling and sporadically switching topics.
Anyways, there is a video too. This video is a bit old, but it definitely is interesting (I guess you could say). The Xiuning Fellows created this video in preparations for the conference that happened a few weeks back. The lyrics have useful information for the other fellows who were coming.

Here is the link just in case the video isn't working for what ever reason:

If it still doesn't work, let me know!
