Chapter 6: The Last Chapter

Image
I tried writing a blog post about a month ago, but I couldn’t think about what to write about... Now my time in China is just about up, and my mind is suddenly on overload and there is simply too much for me to say and do in what feels like an impossible short period of time: one week. Here’s my formal goodbye, my farewell note, to the place that showed me China: 海口 Hǎikǒu. Chapter 6: The Last Chapter So here it is, the final chapter, and my last update of my high school year in China. As much as I wish I weren’t already writing this, I also feel that it is definitely time that I do.  It started setting in that I would soon have to leave about a month ago, and it was not a pleasant feeling.

Basically, I forgot to write... but that’s only because I’ve been busy with other studying lately. In this chapter I’ll be catching you up on some of the things I’ve done over the past few months, and hopefully follow it up with some pictures. My English is also getting a little rusty so if there are any mistakes, please just bear with me... Chapter 5: Another Long Post Since I’ve arrived in Hǎikǒu, time has moved incredibly fast... too fast, in fact. I remember when the other exchange students and I hit the three-month mark, meaning we still had seven months left of our exchange, and I exclaimed “We’re leaving so soon!” They all laughed then; but now that we’re over seven months in with less than two months remaining, the fact that it feels like only a week has gone by since I said that really makes it seem not-so ridiculous anymore.
