Sep. 30th, 2010

On the last day of every month, I take Just a Minute to reflect on what I’m currently up to.

Stepping… back from everything I was into online. Not that there was even much to begin with, compared to my epic scaling back last year. But I haven’t been a regular visitor on any of my former social networking haunts, and I feel like this isn’t going to change in the coming months. This isn’t unexpected, but I am a little discomfited by it.

Feeling… a little tired of being constantly stressed. I love my new life here in Beijing, but who said life wasn’t stressful from time to time? It’s nothing big, just little daily stresses that get a little irritating over time.

Speaking… tons and tons of 中文 (zhōngwén / Chinese) which I’m sure surprises no one.

Eating… my weight in 包子 (bāozi / steamed dumplings). There is a lady who sells the best 包子 I’ve ever had right outside my apartment. I get them every morning for breakfast, and I’ve affectionately named her as “包子 Lady.”

Exploring… Beijing nightlife every weekend, and loving my experiences so far.

Making… lots of really awesome new friends. A lot of them happen to go to colleges near mine, or live in cities near my school. This means that we’ll be able to hang out and keep in touch when we all return to the States, which I’m stoked about.

Preparing… for my epic trip to climb Huangshan this weekend!!
