Dayanta (I fail at Mandarin)
Today Mikey zoned Nicola took me to see the Dayanta. It's a big pagoda-sequence building in the centre of an amazing park. I'll have to go back one day just to see the park itself, cause it looks beautiful. There's a giant fountain in the centre and lots of statues. I tried to take pictures but we were going pretty quickly.

Wow, my new Aston people are buckets of fun. Lol, they're all crazy really. Which works cause those are my favorite kind of people. They're all rather young, but it's okay.

Michael took me to the centre of the city last night. It's a big tourist attraction called The Bell Tower, I think it's completely filled with bells. It's beautiful at night.

Young, but nice. Found out that my room mate is going to be a South African boy in his twenties. Why are they all so young?
Anyway then it was onto police ( Read more... ) -
My new apartment
I got my new apartment today. It's bigger than I thought it'd be, and the neighbourhood's not bad from what I can tell. It needs some serious cleaning and probably a bit of airing out. But it's a nice place, a bit far from everything but transport is pretty cheap so that's okay.
I also met the manager at Aston 3 that's in charge of me today. His ( Read more... ) -
I've moved to China.
So, I know I haven't actually posted here in ages, but I promised all the aunts and cousins I'd find a way to keep everyone up to date. I've just arrived in China and it's interesting. Certainly different. The weather isn't really liking me at the moment and Mikey has no coffee so I've got that horrible stale headed sort of headache. But I bought ( Read more... ) -
