Wow time sure flew and before I knew it I was on the plane to LA! My last few weeks of being a Napkin pretty much consisted of packing, and repacking over and over again. My check in bag had to be under 44 lbs, and that was pretty hard just because I would finish and then think of something else I needed. In between packing I tried to spend as much time as I could with my best friends Maddie and Finn, so that was very fun, and I am going to miss them both so much. I also had all of my girlfriends over for a going away party and that was super fun. Then it was suddenly the morning I was leaving. We drove to the airport and I had to say goodbye to my amazing family, which was extremely hard...especially my sister Fifi. After I got onto the plane, it was super hot and very small. It was probably the smallest plane I have ever been on. But the flight was only an hour so it wasn't too bad. When I got to LAX, I got my bags and finally found the place the shuttle was supposed to pick me up, which was harder than I thought it was going to be because I kept thinking I was not in the right place. But, I successfully got to the hotel, which was a lot different than the pictures. It's huge, but it has really nice air conditioning, which is nice because it's hot here. At first I accidentally went into the wrong room, and then after 20 minutes I realized that was not my room and actually went to my correct room. I got my international student I.D. card and the schedule, which the times are in military time, which just makes everything harder because I'm bad at telling that kind of time. I will try to keep updated as much as I can but for now. zài jiàn.

This school year, 2012-2013, I am an exchange student in Nanjing, China. It's a long way from home in Napa, CA! I live with a wonderful host family and go to school in a local high school. I'm keeping this blog to record my experiences for my family and friends (and fellow AFSers!). Recent May Pictures:
