Hey Guys!

So life is pretty chill, it rains a lot now. Still not you would call cold weather, but definitely getting cooling down a bit. School is a bit boring, but ok. I don't think I've told you guys about the schooling sitution here! I am in the Intermediate B class (which is really just the middle class, one higher--full of RM's--and one lower). There are eight people total in my class, six are fellow BYU students, one is from West Point. We start class everyone morning at 8am, except on Wednesdays and Fridays. We go from 8 until 12, have a lunch break until 2, and then have classes until 4pm. On Mondays and Wednesdays we have a Taichi class from 4:15 until 5pm. There are little breaks in between as well. We have a speaking class (eight hours a week), a writing/reading class (eight hours a week), a culture class (four hours a week), a history class (two hours a week) and a tai chi (hour and a half every week). It is kinda tiring, but good for the Chinese!! Well, I have to get going, more later!
Love,
Brooke
