Welcome

For anyone who stumbles across this page this is where I will blog my adventure while studying in China. I started this because when I started I knew nothing other than to show up at the university on September 10th.. This will be my third time abroad, I have already studied in France and Japan.
My goal is to share the adventure and hope that someone other than my family and girlfriend will read it or learn something from it. Please look, read and comment.

**Updates**

*New Color Scheme & animations! Happy Halloween
*For fellow students I uploaded files for studying. The links are on the left.
*On the bottom of the page is a following gadget. Please add yourself to let me know that you follow this blog! Kind of like the friends from myspace!
*New Links on the left for new podcast. I have to admit the paranormal podcast is particularly awsome. And awsome props to touchstone, I can't live without your weekly podcast.

A bank is a bank is a bank...

So update. No money = No classes = No learning = Pissed off american...
So i just learned that bank of china apparently has needed more information from my bank but never asked for it. They didnt bother telling my bank they needed clairification until i had the bank ask them whats going on, its been 8 days on something that should take 2... They said oh we need this... WHY DIDNT YOU ASK!?!????

Good heaven almighty. Also apparently there might be a problem with my name. See i didnt use my chinese name (never learned how to write it)
So in China you have a surname, and family name. Well to them my Surname is my first AND middle. Well for me its just my first.

So with teh confusion one paper says MR_H another is HR_M another is H_MR well you see if someone who doesnt know english wont realize that is all the same thing... Confusion = me not getting any help....

So just thought to update. I did get western Union to work, so now i have some money. I am goign to go buy a cell phone, blankets, water, and conditioner. Ahh how graet it will be to have a blanket. no more sleeping under a jacket!! YAY!
