Hello from China! Ni hao! :)

Hello dearly missed friends,

After an eternity, I've finally found my way back to the internet and into this little space. And sadly, Blogspot is blocked in China! And how am I updating this from my end? Let's just say that there are wonderful blessings on the Internet that are the next best thing to sliced bread.

Sadly, the server cannot allow me to post pictures on blogger since this is a very primitive interface I am using. So all updated with pictures shall be coursed through my wordress account (which surprisingly is not banned!):

So it has been over a week since I have landed here in Shanghai, and it's been pretty much fun. Minus being nearly run over by bicycles, cars and motorcycles (since they apparently own the road), it's pretty okay here.

That, and it's just too frickin' cold! Like, it's really cold! I'm freezing my ass off. Things are getting colder too, and with our 45-minute walk to our classroom it can get really cold. Like, really cold.

And after three layers of clothes, boots, scarves and a thermal jacket, I still feel cold.

I'm cutting it short for now, my classmates are here and we'll be partying in the room. :D
