I'm slated to be in Beijing for the last two weeks of June for work. I think I'll be really bored over the weekends. I need to make friends in Beijing so they can take me out and show me around, 'cos I'm sure there are still many nooks and corners I've yet to go to. But it's so difficult...one just can't make friends just like that. Anyways, so I figure I'll just hole up in my hotel room and work, work, work.
On a side note, I steered for three sets last night during dragonboat practice. Boat went a wee bit off course at some points, but for the most part, I managed to keep it going straight. Not too bad for a beginner. Quite pleased with myself. Hee. But going to Beijing will mean missing out on the last two weeks of practice before the competition on 1-2 July. Damn. But what to do? Dragonboat isn't the one that's bringing in the dough!
