Yesterday and Today

Yesterday night, as you should know (if you have been reading my blog), I went to this show that featured 12 acts, that included hoop jumping, and some other cool acts. It was extremely good. My Great-Grandaunt, invited my grandmother and I to there. On the way back, we took the Beijing Subway, which involved a security check (they're really becoming serious about this now). 

Today, I went to my GrandAunt's house, and then we went to this buffet that cost 200 RMB per person. It had a lot of choices that looked good, but tasted horrible. Tonight, I am going to go the the Olympic Green, and hopefully, the lights will be on.

I will be posting photos as soon as Preston gets MobileMe web galleries set up.

Today, it went to a high of 37 Degrees C. So we didn't go anywhere so far. Instead, we stayed inside and waited the entire day for a cable repair guy to come. Tonight I'm going to a "Cirque du Soleil" like event. (Thank you Hale for the correct spelling.) Tomorrow, I am going to one of my Grandaunt's house (the rich one) to help her set up some stuff. 

My Birthday...

So, I had my birthday party, not much. We ate at this really fancy buffet called Todai. It cost 200 RMB (Yuan) per person. After that, not much happened. So, my birthday was pretty much lunch and thats about it. Here are the two pictures I took.

Guess What?

Todays my 13th birthday! Can't wait to see what happens today, as Preston tells me MobileMe is also transitioning today, along with some other random stuff.

Olympic Green At Night

Not much of a site, as the lights aren't on tonight. But, this is the Olympic Green at 10 P.M.

What I've Been Up To The Past Two Days.

7/5/08

I went with some of my relatives on a relatively private tour of the Olympic Green. We took the car to the Main Press Center (MPC), where we went on a private tour (along with several other families) of the main press workrooms, the AP workrooms, along with a tour of the hotel in the MPC.  We also got to see the main conference room, where they will hold all the announcements, etc. The hotel, is owned by the Bei Chen Group, whose president let us go on the private tour. We went all the way to the top of the hotel, the 16th floor, where we were able to see the National Aquatics Center (Water Cube) and also the National Stadium (Birds Nest). After that, we were treated to a 12-course lunch at the hotel's restaurant, where the food, was, horrible, yet expensive. Just to tell you guys, I got to see all this stuff, before the general public gets to see it. I'll be posting pics as soon as I get a good web hoster. 

7/6/08

I got new glasses today, along with a ton of food. I also sent out 6 postcards that should arrive in the next 10-15 days, but it should be earlier. 

7/7/08

Today, I got a new violin. Thats pretty much all I did today.  ): 

What I've Been Doing So Far

I've been really busy these past days, shopping and stuff. I also am getting settled down too. Look for postcards in 2 weeks or so.

Webcam and Stuff

I finally got my webcam installed! I can video-chat with anyone who has skype now. (skype username: eli8527)

Today, We're Going To Make Some History. (Sort of)

I got an iPhone.
