funny seeing you here
Yeah so I just ended the first week of the new semester. Doing reaaaaaaaal good in class. I mean reaaaaaaaal good.
Don’t feel like saying much so I’ll just post some random pictures
haha this is my floormates room, me and my friend decided to turn everything upside down as a prank
Found this awesome new dance studio. It’s quite small but everyone who practise there is at a high level. I found it through one of my ABC friends and he introduced me to one of his ABC friends who runs the practise there. This ABC dude who runs the place is from Boston. Cool dude, he lives in Beijing now.
The only down side to this studio is its all the way in Sanlitun so it’s like 45 minute subway ride to get there. The practise are defintely worth it though, they just cypher for the whole 3 hours we have. It’s also not as frequent so I started practising in this crappy study rooms in the dormitories. I’ll post footage soon enough.
Not the best picture but as you can see this dance studio has a lobby (which is also a clothing store) and the dance studio right next to it. It’s really nice but not the biggest in comparison to the others I’ve found.
Yeah so any bboy would know what this picture means. Long story short, the first time I went to this dance studio, I happened to bump into a Toronto bboy there. Bboy Bridge SNC. He came back for chinese new year and was in Beijing to take the plane back to Toronto. The timing and coincidence was huge, I was trippin out when I saw him for the first time like… no way that can’t be him. When he saw me he couldn’t believe it either haha. This is the definition of why people say the world is a small place.
So now I’m just kind’ve chilling out, meeting a lot of new classmates and language students. I’ve becoming one of those dudes who has an idea of what is going on so I’ve been helping a few of the new language students. I’m really locked down in studying solid each day now because learning chinese is so interesting. So, I guess …
PEACE
one love. =)
Noah, it’s good to hear that you’re doing well in class.
A 45-minute subway ride can be annoying, but that’s life in the big city. Sanlitun definitely puts you into expat territory.
Hey Noah, you wanted to skype? I sent you an email but you didn’t respond. I’m free this saturday/sunday night. Email me back
Oh man, looks like you’re still doing well there
. Hey, try to take more pictures of nicely designed posters / anything else! I’m interested in how visual culture is like at the part of China you’re currently residing in.
Hope to see more blog posts / pictures soon, NOAH IIIIIING! Take care!
Yes! I think that poster is pretty cool and for some reason I like the title “Rocking in the Forbidden city”
regh regh regh
Bboy bridge? oh god that is the weirdest thing in the world man. the fact that he’d be in the exact same city at the exact same studio at the exact same time is nuts.
