…And no one from the foreign language department has gotten a hold of me yet.
I’ve been staying in my apartment with the exception to forage for food waiting for someone to come knock on the door as my landline wont be turned on and I do not yet have a mobile number or internet service.
I went a little stir crazy and took a walk around the campus & town for a few hours (leaving a note on my door). I stopped by my contact’
s office and left a message with his
office mate.
Came home 30 minutes early, and sure enough there was a knock 30
minutes afterwards, it was my contact.
Apparently the time I swung by his office, he was making a stop at my place… Good thing I left a note stating when I was going to be back 
I told him
of my situation where no one has contacted me yet, he looked fairly suprised… We setup a time later that day to get me setup with a mobile number & internet access.
Later came and I got a mobile number (the GSM card works with my phone with the exception it cannot display the service messages that are in chinese…well its not like I would be able to read them anyway, I guess the plus side is that this gives me time to shop around for a cool phone thats not available in the states ;-)) & was shown how to get an internet (paper) card. The internet access is good for one month, but only good for one hour increments…meaning I’ll have to re-sign in every hour :-/ …well guess its better than going to the office for internet access
While getting the items above, my contact asked me what I’ ve been doing for food for the last few days.
I told him
I was eating take out, etc.
He laughed at me and told me that it wasn’t healthy and that I should cook :-p. He even gave me some cooking advice & recipes Guess I’ll have to try it now, after being laughed at…
Tonight there is also a city reception dinner for the National Holiday this evening for all the internation business people and all foreign teachers are invited Should be interesting to see…
