School is Great

School is going great I have been told I am going to the best school in Anshan, China. Everyone wants to help me. I was given some really good advice and that was to just talk to as many people as possible. So I decided to get more involved at school.
My school has a yearly sports meeting that I participated in. I was in the track and field area, I ran 1500 meter race, 800 meter, and a relay race. It was fun we took the 4th place in the relay. For the 1500 and 800 meter race I brought back 4th for America (which is okay, but it was out like 30 people). After the race the racers put on one of the Fuwa (the Olympic mascots) costumes and ran around in them. I was Yingying. I will try to upload the video of me. I am making friends and its been going great. Just this week I was able to make a laughable joke in Chinese so that was great. I went to a public bathhouse for the first time, being the only non-Asian person there I got a lot of stares. Chinese class is going great, we starting to break the language barrier and I can understand a lot more of what she is saying in Chinese. Trying to stay healthy while in China so I run three miles a day at school and people run with me and talk me but they never the whole time they think it is amazing that I can run for so long. I will keep running everyday to stay healthy and talk to more kids at school. I am all about the OneWorld Now! intentionality.
