Today I had my last Integrated Chinese 101 class. It was great! Tài hǎo le! (Great!)

Ken and I took the non-credit course from the Confucius Institute at Renison College (UW). We learned several basic Mandarin phrases and sentence structure. By the end of the course, I could write a page long letter (in Chinese characters) to our instructor. I was really impressed by the amount that I learned! Of course, it’s all very basic, but definitely a great start.

We’re done!!! I was looking through the photos that my sister and Jen took today, and I think this is one of the best ones. More pictures and notes to follow shortly.

UPDATE: Check out my UW Convo Flickr album for more pictures.
