Mandarin, Spanish, S----s, and a football match.

Today my room mate and i taught Mandarin to some European students. We didn't think many would turn up, especially since the Italian class before ours had only 3 students. BUT surprise surprise, there were at least ten. We weren't very prepared but it turned out quite well...although our students spotted some minor errors at times!(ie. the hanyu pinyin pitch for the exact words were written differently)...damn malu. But of course, i would simply pretend that i was just testing them. Besides teaching Mandarin, Im also learning Spanish, which i can probably put to use in Spain.

Will most likely be catching the Man Utd vs Benefica match at Old Trafford on December 6. It'd probably cost a bomb though, having to shuttle back and forth between manchester and warsaw(which, by the way, has no direct flight connection..) just to catch ONE match. Still it's worth it lar, I waited 7 long years for this!

Ok time to dive into my individual presentation work on European business cultures. The six letter word that begins and ends with S has begun to catch up with the loafing oaf. Though i have barely started on the presentation, I am supposed to hand in the content to my prof by Friday for review, yet tomorrow at 5 am im heading for the airport to Greece *gasp*!

Once again, welcome to the life of an exchange student ;)
