had fun met ju's family

I had a lot of fun yesterday! I didn't really do much for the first half of the day, but when Ju knocked on my door at seven last night I was ready for an adventure. He took me to an english corner run by his friend Abdul from Ghanna. Abdul is really awesome. He's a teacher from a private english school in town and they run the english corner so that people can go and practice their english in a controlled setting. There were only about 10 people there so it was really small and nice. We played some games like charades and a game where we had to take the letters out of the word comfortable and make new words. I had a lot of fun it was nice to be the student instead of the teacher. Then Ju took me to the DVD store and I bought Stardust to show to my classes this next week. After that we went to go meet with his cousins to watch the opening ceremonies to the paraolympics. It was really fun to meet his family. They were very kind and welcoming and gave me a chinese name. le le. It means joy joy. We had to leave at 10 because they close the gates to the campus and ju is a student so the curfew applies to him. He dropped me off at my apartment and then went back to the new campus. I live on the old campus. I watched Stardust with Lynn after that. She never saw it so it was really awesome like watching it again for the first time myself. I went to bed late and woke up late today and haven't really done anything of merit this morning. I should do laundry I guess. Classes tomorrow. Love you guys! I love you blake.
