(下个星期我要去中国）7 Days

In 7 Days, I'll be in China! 

Well, at least I'll be on the plane to China, and that's close enough for me. 

I'll be Tianjin! 

Here it is! (About a 2 hour bus ride or 30 min speed train away from Beijing)

Here is the Wikipedia page if you want to learn more.

I'll be there for 12 weeks. 
While I'm there I'm going to be studying Mandarin! (A full year's worth of it!)

Ooo! How pretty looking!

 I'll do my best to keep with this blog, but as you all can guess, I'll be very busy in China. 

I'm a bit nervous because this is the longest I've been abroad and the first time I will ever be in China. 

But, I'm just so freaking excited about this amazing opportunity!



Just for fun, enjoy this Chinese Mandrin version of I'll Make a Man Out of You from Mulan. (Yes, that is Jackie Chan)

Chinese Word of the Blog Post

*For a bit of fun, I decided that I'll try and put a word here for those who want to add a little Chinese vocabulary to their arsenal or words*

苹果  (píngguǒ)  

Apple
