She's using the immersion approach, huh? Good luck.
Well, she's been studying English for a while, it's just she's never left China. She must be nervous: I certainly would be. It'll just be weird, because my sister's family is busy-busy-busy and highly verbal. I don't know how much time they'll have for her.
As it is, she'll have to take public transportation into the city for her classes, and won't that be fun the first few times.

Which change? It keeps switching me to the strange new thing (okay, five times, but that's five times more than I wanted), and once to someone else's journal entirely (he's now friended me, which is weird). But I seem to remember the standard interface being around for a while, even though it's no longer default.
yeah, for some reason that didn't bother me. It didn't change the way I used the place, so I didn't really notice much.
