This weekend I certainly crossed some boarders again – this time though not in form of eating special food or getting a culture shock – but simply because my oldest host sister and her friends took me to a dog park, to play with their little dog. And with play they meant the normal kind of “play with a dog” plus swimming in a pool with the dog! Well, their dog was (ok) sweet, but not all of the dogs were as well bred as him. Everything went fine though, and I got some good pictures and a sunburn on my back :) Here are some pictures:
I know, that a lot of you are curious about my daily life, so this time I will post some pictures from my dance club. I go there every Monday and Thursday. Monday to do latin jazz and Thursday to do MTV dance (right now we are working on Circus by Britney Spears).
I can also tell that my Chinese is improving, which you can see on the picture below. The picture shows a card for my teacher, as today is Confusius’ birthday. Confusius was the first Chinese teacher and his birthday is yearly marked as teachersday – a day where the students are supposed to give cards or presents to their teachers. I think it shows a lot about how important teachers and school are in asian culture - school is like religion, and teachers are like gods :)
Still love it heir!
Julia :)
