My New Class Schedule
Today was the first day of school after the vacation.
Although we really only got our books and the class schedule. I now obviously have to pay around 200 yuan for the books too, even though I was told they were included in the course fee I paid! I complained, and so far I haven’t needed to pay – but I guess time will come. The people who didn’t end up in my class, or with an intensive course, started their classes today – but mine doesn’t start before tomorrow.
I don’t really have a lot of classes, so I’ll guess I’ll have to study some on my own to get to my desired goal. Which is as simple as being able to talk about basic things in Chinese. So far I can only understand the “how are you?” type of conversations. And diverse words and characters.
So here’s how I will be spending my school week;
Monday:
9:00 – 10:20 “Computer learning”. Not sure what this is yet, but it obviously contains learning on computers.
Tuesday;
9:00 – 10:20 “Listening skills”. I’m guessing we’ll learn some words too.
20 min break.
10:40 – 12:00 “Listening skills”.
Wednesday;
9:00 – 10:20 “Intensive reading”. Although I’m guessing it won’t be very intensive at my level.
20 min break.
10:40 – 12:00 “Intensive reading”.
1 and a half hour lunchbreak.
13:30 – 14:50 “Oral practice”. Or talking lessons if you like.
20 min break.
15:10 – 16:30 “Oral practice”.
Thursday;
9:00 – 10:20 “Intensive reading”.
20 min break.
10:40 – 12:00 “Intensive reading”.
1 and a half hour lunchbreak.
13:30 – 14:50 “Oral practice”.
20 min break.
15:10 – 16:30 “Oral practice”.
Friday;
9:00 – 10:20 “Intensive reading”. Although I’m guessing it won’t be very intensive at my level.
20 min break.
10:40 – 12:00 “Intensive reading”.
I seriously need to find myself a new hobby. I’m so used to school taking up the entire day, and now I have more spare time than ever. Unless they decide for us to “have fun” with the class assignments. xD
