你好！
这是我的最后一周，中国102. 这学期我学到了很多东西. This past week has been all about reviewing our Hanzi from lessons eight to twelve, I really enjoyed being able to see my progress with Hanzi recognition from the past lessons, while reviewing. 我们看到的是中国电影 "Shanghai Calling" and it was really good!
SHANGHAI CALLING is a romantic comedy about modern-day American immigrants in an unfamiliar land. When an ambitious New York attorney is sent to Shanghai on assignment, he immediately stumbles into a legal mess that could spell the end of his career. But with help from a beautiful relocation specialist, a well-connected foreign businessman, a clever but unassuming journalist, and a street-smart assistant, Sam might just save his job, discover romance, and learn to appreciate the many wonders Shanghai has to offer. (http://shanghaicalling.com/synopsis/). I think the most important thing that I learned after watching this movie is about Sam's experience with cultural barriers and differences, and how he went to China in the beginning almost hesitant and reluctant to accept the differences. But in the end, it was very rewarding for him, he found the love of his life, a great job, and it all worked out. So the moral of the movie, is to open your eyes to new experiences, and it could possibly change your life forever.
102 was a very fun and interesting course! Although this will be the last course of Chinese for me, I have learned a lot about myself as a person, and fully hope to take more courses sometime in my life, in the future!
再见！
可你

Week 9
你好！
這一周，我學習第13課. 第13課 about shopping and clothing! It also was about bargaining. Here is an example of a bartering situation (看价）。
A: 一涨跌多少钱？
B: 一张二十块。
A: 太贵了。便宜点儿。青马？
B: 那。。。。一张十五。
A: 再便宜点儿！ 一张五块，怎么样？ 我要十张。
B: 好吧。
A: 有美国电影吗？
B: 有美国电影，中国电影，老电影，性电影没有。
Bartering is especially useful in China so that you can get your goods cheaper, so this lesson is very useful! We also learned some colors（颜色）: 黑色，蓝色，红色，黄色，咖啡色，金黄色，银灰色，紫色，橘色。These are very helpful when you are trying to describe an item of clothing that you want or are looking for to the sales person or clerk.

Week 8
你好！
This week was a review week for us, where we reviewed everything from Lesson 12 all the way to Lesson 8. For homework, we have recently signed up with mychineselab.com, it is an awesome experience where we can go on and do listening exercises to help review, there is an online e-book that we can use to help us, as well as, other awesome activities to preview for new lessons! Some of the sentences we reviewed from the different chapters were:
我可以上你的骒马？
每周那天你有课？
我上文你的可很难？
服务员，我要一杯冰水。
小姐，我要点菜。
一万汤。
两双筷子。
十个骄子。
Overall, I think that the checkups and listening excercises helped me a lot this week to remember the stuff we had just learned, as well as, learned in the past. I look forward to working with mychineselab more often!!

Week 7
我们一起跟被把！(Let's toast together!)
I have officially survived Week 7, which is all about making requests! Lesson 12 delves into a bunch of different questions relating to requests that you could ask someone. It also explains the term "optative verbs" which in this case are verbs that express wishes or hopes and are placed before the main verb to express wishes, desires, obligations, capabilities, possibilities, or to give permission.
要，想，应该，得，能，可以，会
yao- want, will, to be going to, have to, should
xiang- want, intend, would like to
yinggai- should, ought to, to be supposed to
dei- have to, to be required to
neng- to have to ability to, can, can (depending on circumstances), permission-may
keyi- permission-may, can (depending on circumstances)
hui-know how to, have the ability to, be likely to, will
we also learned some of the following phrases:
怎么说。。。
中文怎么说。。。
请说译本（一次）。。。
轻慢嗲日说。。。
我可以接你的车？
我有一辆车。
Friday in class we worked on our script discussing how to convince someone to let you use their car! It was really fun and funny too!

Week 6
你好！
I'm really hungry as I am writing this post, specifically due to the fact that Lesson 11 that we learned this week completely deals with how to order food at a restaurant, and the different types of food and drinks! I really enjoyed learning this lesson because it was interesting to finally have something to be able to use in my personal life when I go to a Chinese restaurant. Now, I will be able to order my meal completely in Chinese! What a cool thought:)
Here is an example dialogue that shows how a typical restaurant conversation might look:
请问，几位？
三位。
好，请跟我来。请坐。
谢谢！
小姐，先生，请问，你们想先和点什么？
我喜欢喝茶。
你要红茶还是路茶？
我要一本并红茶。
我要已被水
我要一瓶可乐。
好，已被并红茶，一杯水，一瓶可乐。请等一下。
对了，你们喜欢吃饭还是吃面？
我都喜欢。
我想吃饺子。
这是您的并红茶，水，还有可乐。
你们要点菜马？
好，我们点一盘超凡，一盘炒面和二十个饺子吧。
我们还要三碗汤。 对了，我们也要三双侉子，谢谢！
Friday, in class we performed our skits that we had to memorize which included a dialogue between a hostess, a waiter, and a couple on their first date, as well as, a narrator. The situation was that the couple was on their first date and the hostess seats them at the Chinese Restaurant. However, the waiter gives them very bad service and so they have to deal with that. Overall, I would say that the class did very well!
