I'll make this brief.
My name is actually spelled B-r-o-o-k-e, and I am a student at the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. My stay here began mid-February and will continue through June 2013. There are 30 other undergraduate students on this program with me...and they are all fierce and fantastic. Excuse the dramatics; I speak the truth. My studies consist of Chinese, Economics, and Marketing (both business classes focus on China).
Three hours a day, four days a week, we study Chinese in the classroom. During the day (or the wee hours of the early morning) we study independently.
We eat the street food, drink the Coco, enjoy the nightlife, and explore the many places that make this city so incredible.
The days go by fast here. The culture is smacks us in the face daily (hourly). It's A LOT of Chinese. And it is...the best.
