Finished Chinese!!

Woohoo did my Chinese final exam today. I hope I did well. I need that damn HD average to apply to go to exchange to UPenn. Sigh!! So silly in my first few semesters....

Anyway! Enjoy one of my Chinese passages! And if you can't read it don't worry you're not missing out on much. It's not very exciting...

王朋:李友,你上个星期考试考得怎么样?
李友:考得不错,因为你帮助我复习,所以考得不错。但是老师说我中国字写得太慢!
王朋:是吗?以后跟你一起练习写字,教你什么写,好不好?
李友:那太好了!我们现在就写。给你笔。
王朋:我教你写“难”字。
李友:你写字写得很好,也很快。
王朋:哪里,哪里。你明天有中文课吗?
李友:有,明天我们学第七课。
王朋:你预习了吗?
李友:预习了。第七克的语法很容易,我都懂,可是生词太多,汉字也有一点儿难。
王朋:今天晚上我跟你一起练习吧?
李友:好,谢谢你。
王朋:不谢,晚上见。

I CAN READ MOON RUNES NOW!!

Chinese

So I've started learning Chinese (mandarin). Every lecture/tute/seminar we sit there and chant pinyin until my throat is raw and dry and my tonsils also thought it would be a really good joke to pop up in an infestation at the same time.

I've learnt 6 characters out of 600 for this semester and I'm starting to get worried. Ah well. At least I'm studying in week 1, unlike in previous semesters. I want to fly away and die.
