New name

This week has been a really good one. We've stayed busy doing lots of fun things. I'm getting use to pretty much doing whatever you want. If I want to learn guitar I can learn guitar, if I want to go play ping pong I can just go play ping pong. Its a good time just to get those things that you've always wanted to do done. There's lots of time here after teaching where you don't have to be constanting studying or working like at college. This week we have started taking Chinese lessons from a native named Vivi. She comes over like two to three times a week for like 1-2 hours for language lessons. This last time she gave us new Chinese names! My new name is Mao Yan Chun. Mao is for Amanda, and Yan Chun is for beautiful Spring. So kinda fun! Its really cool to learn the language. It is sooo intense. The same word can be spelled exactly the same but in Chinese they have four differen tones so if you say it slightly off then it has a whole new meaning. Oh! Annie also told us that we might get to have kung fu lessons on Saturday's too which would be so cool. Keep your fingers crossed that it will happen....
