The first day of finals is over for me. Most of the students seem to have done well, and I'm quite proud of a few of them who obviously studied very hard and did much better than some of my more advanced students who didn't prepare too well.
Also, after my first exam this morning I arrived at my desk to find a note from Julia, my Chinese teacher, saying that the guitar case had arrived. I ran downtown (with my guitar this time) and bought it. They charged only twenty kuai more than for the smaller case, so I was pleased. I figured it wasn't even worth it to bargue with them since they'd been honest with me and it was a price I was willing to pay.
Now I just have to pack up and ship one of my other suitcases, because there's no way that I can haul my two suitcases, a guitar and a backpack to a taxi, much less through an airport all by myself.
