:: To Get [Or Not] Get Used To It

It's been more than two months since the first day I arrived in Beijing. And I'm happy to say that until this stage my life is quite back to normal. School has been busier than usual, *yes, for some of you who think that study language is a piece of cake, sheesh, I completely disagree with you*, my brain has been fully loaded with tons of chinese characters, and thanks to my own so-called expectation to go to C class next semester *pheeew*, I've been working harder than I should have to.

One of other things I've done to have my life completely back in track is that i'm back to my workout routine. I go to one of the best local gyms in town that luckily enough to have english-capable-speaking manager. God bless whoever who can speak english in this country.

My study time has become more and more intense each day. I just finished mid term test and it went good unless my chinese pronounciation throughly needs more works. Tones is another obvious problem I've always encountered. My english is no good either, I have lack of chances to speak with many different people except to some classmates and my gym manager.

On the other side, I stlll don't get and would never understand some of these things - Ooh, don't tell me you've never been warned!

a. That locals chinese have super and amazing skill of 'expectoration' with full stereo and surrounding sounds. the aim is usually quite remote and let's the whole world rest assured, they are somehow capable of doinwww.cg it in correct aim and environmentally saved. at least i'm still fine until this very second. and to get over its sound or multimedia effect, thank lord to iPod.

b. Still and still don't quite get it. Locals speak too loud. But again thanks to iPod, it saves my life.

c. Toilet is one of China's biggest issues. To bring tissue anywhere with you is one of the commandments of living in China. But that's not the only thing. You might be surprised that some people just let the door open while they're doing their 'business'. I leave these options for you: one, walking straight to your toilet pretend nothing happened, or two, if you think courtesy is still needed in this awkward moment, to say 'Good Luck' or 'Have a Nice Day' is another option. Although I've never done the later option.

d. Blogger has issue in China. This is another fact why I haven't posted anything since a month a go. I'm so sorry for my BeijingDP sites, it's been badly abandoned. But today I just knew that blogspot is back on track, I'll be back to write.

But other than those issues, I'm okay. And the best part of living in China I like the most is I do less shopping. And for unknown reason of why, here, I feel content for what I have :) There's always a bright side of everything, don't you think?
