First Day of Class Afterwards...

I just came back from two classes, Listening and Reading. I could pretty much understand what the teachers were saying, but I didn't know any of the new words. Listening class was easy, but reading class was okay, so-so. I wander if I should consider the option to transfer to a higher level class?


Before first day of class:

I arrived in Beijing Sunday night, but my flight arrived an hour late. Then I had to take a shuttle from Terminal 2 to Terminal 3. TEAN took the group of us who had already arrived to a dinner at a local restaurant for some food. It was cold, but it wasn't that cold. Monday morning brought us an awesome buffet meal comprised of a mix of Western and Chinese cuisines. After breakfast, there was a presentation on our schedule in China, transportation, communications, housing, and contacts. Then we went to a Korean BBQ for lunch near the Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. Then we got to ride in rickshaws to a hutong in Beijing and had dinner in a restaurant in the hutong of Peking Duck. Then we rode the bus home all tired and ready to sleep off.
