FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

classes started today. 
half the class was not on time and we might have offended the new teachers.
some how i was placed in the intermediate class. it is clear on the first day that i'm a lost cause.
my teacher is energetic but i think she is a little annoyed by us. honestly i cant tell.
we get badminton rackets and are very bad at playing.

we end up going to the summer palace.
like everything its beautiful and we are to busy acting like fools to notice. we take a boat ride and end up splitting the group in half for a half hour.
we sit by a huge lake and do stupid things and be loud, buy things we dont need and leave.

in the taxis on the way to dinner i get in an argument over if beyonce is a dancer or not. (apparently she isn't) 

its joes birthday we buy a huge cake that turns out to be worth the money. i kinda start a race war. the food is ok.
i'm tired but get guilted into going out. 
we go to a lake in the middle of the old city that is surrounded by bars. its like disney land but really is like how Bangkok is described to me. 
the bars are to expensive so we buy beers in the ally and wander around.
we never meet up with the birthday boy and eventually take taxis home end up at home.  
i wake up my roommate and sleep in my cloths. 

im happy i went out and kinda dont ever want to leave beijing.
