Gotta love my parents, this stuff is all totally awesome. Highlight of this week: watching The Avengers in IMAX 3D whilst eating Twisties. I'm determined to make this stuff last, so actually I'm eating more at the canteens so I'm not hungry when I get back to my room, haha. I had a presentation early in the week that didn't go so well, and considering that preparing for it was one of the reasons that I came back from Chengdu, I was pretty bummed out. Also, I am getting serious about finding an internship now, I've got three interviews coming up next week. But it's been hard chasing those up too, partly because my Chinese isn't good enough to apply for positions in straight-up Chinese (which I'm worried will mean I won't get an internship where I'm in a Chinese-speaking environment), partly because I don't really have a career direction right now. The career direction will hopefully come next year in the form of a post-graduate degree, probably back at Adelaide Uni (I forget if I've mentioned that plan in this blog already). So this week has been pretty stressful. I wish I had longer here, it's only been three months and I'm already leaving so soon, but I feel like I should have accomplished more, joined more societies etc. But my Chinese wasn't good enough for that at the beginning, so I have to think I've done alright. Having a good time, even in English, can always make me feel better. To that end, I think I'll have some chocolate right now
