Sadly, I had to temporarily halt my Chinese studies, since I am taking two other classes and didn't want to overdo it. I hope to resume in the future, since I really enjoyed it. I am still looking at characters in signs around town and hope I can pick up a few on my own.
What I'm Reading Right Now:
"The license was registered under my Chinese name, Ho Wei. It was valid for six years, and to protect against counterfeiters, the document featured a hologram of a man standing atop an ancient horse-drawn carriage. The figure was dressed in flowing robes, like portraits of the Daoist philosopher Lao Tzu, with an upraised arm pointing into the distance. Later that year I set out to drive across China." --Peter Hessler, Country Driving: A Journey Through China from Farm to Factory
