new “kids” in class
On Monday we got two new additions in our martial arts class. One is a woman (not pictured) from Sweden, possibly in her 40s, who is studying TaiChi and has been to China through WorldLink before. The other is a 20 year old girl from Wyoming, USA. Interesting how all of a sudden the guy/girl ratio has now switched. Before it was 2-1 and now it is 2-3. It is a bit surprising for a martial arts program, but I think its cool.
The American girl has fit into our little group quite well already. After talking to her about the accomodations on campus (which are not the best) I said she could move into the apartment with me if she wanted. She accepted the offer but has to go through administrative stuff in order to make it happen. So… I may have a roommate soon. There are pros and cons to this, I’m not sure which outnumbers which, but I spoke before I really thought about it and I am not about to back out on the offer.
Right now, she is signed up for a ten week program. And the poor girl is in a language class all by herself (the Swede is doing martial arts only). Not sure if this would be an advantage or disadvantage, all I know is that if it were me, I would have a terrible headache after every class. I already do anyway, and I only have to answer 1/3 of the questions the teacher asks!

i think it would be good to have a female room mate for awhile. someone to share experiences and keep you from getting kidnapped again. she might even know how to use the iron.

Oooo, good call on the ironing! Didn’t even think about that.

oooo so it’s more then me that knows that you and irons don’t get along, seeing as how it only passes through my hands. You do some mean laundry though, and a great folding job, props for that.
-queen…any hope there?

See, why do I need to iron when I have you? Hehe, I am a champ when it comes to laundry and organizing drawers/closets, this is true.
