2008 Beijing Olympics

I'm leaving tomorrow.

I'm rather excited. I don't know how much Beijing would have changed in over a month.

I left Beijing on June 25th. I've been travelling around South East Asia for 3 weeks and then relaxing in Texas for 2. The last two were necessary to get my tourist visa fixed up.

The year previous I had been learning Chinese at Tsinghua University. My Chinese is still pretty crappy, but I can get by.

I will let everyone know the changes in Beijing and how the Olympics goes.

P.S. Aoyunhui (奥运会) means Olympics in Chinese. It is actually shortened from: Àolínpǐkè yùndònghuì = 奥林匹克运动会. The first word is obviously a chinesified version of Olympics and the second word means "sports competition".
