Since my textbook's stories are written in characters + zhuyin fuhao (the little symbols next to each character) with the pinyin a few pages later, I figured I'd make an effort to learn zhuyin fuhao. Anyone who complains that Chinese doesn't have a phonetic alphabet doesn't know about Zhuyin Fuhao. How else would the Chinese text message each other? 
So I made myself a Zhuyin keyboard! Blue is for initials, white is for finals, yellow is for tone marks. On the wall beside my computer I have two sticky notes with zhuyin -> pinyin key. Hopefully I'll be able to dispense with the key sometime soon. 
Today it rained a lot, like it's been meaning to for the last week.
我不在北京吧?
The upside is that I went out to the other side of the apartment to get a good shot of the rain, and I caught my first glimpse of the beautiful mountain range to the east of Taichung. I'll get some better pictures up later, you can't really see much in this one.
Then, just to make fun of my classmates in Beijing a little more, I went on the internet and read about Chinese political opposition.
