five weeks down, three to go.

saturday we went to the temple of heaven, pearl market, and pizza hut. the temple of heaven was pretty cool... but just like a lot of places we visit: a big pretty park with old chinese buildings. this park is kind of an arts center because they have dancing, ribbon twirling, chinese hackysack, karaoke, and opera going on all the time inside.

i dropped a shameful about of money at the market, but i don't regret it yet :)  the lady i bought pearls from actually complemented my bargaining skills.

pizza hut is a really nice sit-down restaurant here. and it was soooo good! we got stuffed crust hawaiian.

i also got a package from my awesome family in the mail!! sunday i stayed in my pjs and read. a lot. like two whole books.

this week we have to be writing our final report, running simulations, and still coming up with ideas. woohoo! when there is so much to do and the deadline gets closer, time flies.
