<p>anonymous: well i'm sure u have other choices that you'll be just as happy at. if u decide to stay on the waitlist... best of luck!! it really does come down very very much to chance so don't be hard on yourself whatever happens:) everything'll fall into place as it should.</p>
<p>interesteddad: thanks a lot!!:) ...wow, i'm sure your daughter will have a blast. hopefully she'll stay in a hutong because that will definitely be an even more special experience. a majority of beijing students don't even have that opportunity anymore; the hutongs which once defined the spirit of the beijing-lifestyle are disappearing as quickly as the new constructionworks are spreading. Sigh.
And like yimei, i'd be happy to get in touch with your daughter if she needs any help or just wants to talk^_^</p>
<p>yimei: hi!! i'm so happy to meet u on here. two of my best friends are of shanghai origin. and when they speak shanghainese i can't understand a WORD, haha... if i go to swat [which i very probably will], then you'll have to teach me some:p wow, it would be so cool to see u at college in the fall. ru going to swat for sure?</p>
