Well, this is my last post on this blog. My trip to China was amazing, and I am incredibly blessed to have experienced this, I will carry these memories with me forever.
You may have wondered why I stopped blogging for a while and the reason is because I visited Beijing for about (I think) 5 days. In Beijing, I toured the Great Wall and it was, great:) The sights I saw on that wall were amazing! I also visited Tienanmen Square, which was a big, flat, square with a picture of Mao Zhedong watching over us all.
Then, after several days of Chinese classes and interviewing Beijing residents, I took the HSK 3 and it was HARD. After that, I ate Beijing kaoya (Beijing roast duck) and I and my classmates told stories for a long time, reflecting on our time together. I am going to miss all of them, we shared some great experiences and I hope to see them again.
So after that, I rode 4 buses and 3 planes to return home and experienced 2 Thursdays. I can say that I am glad to be home and I am forever changed by this experience. I feel that I can handle anything the world throws at me. My trip to change was a great, great, leap forward, one that will last the rest of my life. Thanks to everyone for their support and love as I went through this program.
