Arrived in Beijing

Success! I've figured it out (for this video at least). This video was taken the day I arrived in Beijing. As you can tell I'm pretty jetlagged.

Technical difficulties...

So I wanted this blog to be more video intensive since making a video takes way less time than writing a whole summary for you guys. (plus watching videos is more entertaining) But I'm running into a lot of trouble uploading the videos without youtube. I tried uploading one today about my arrival in Beijing and first impressions, but the video won't upload straight to blogger since it's more than 100 MB :( I even tried condensing it using iMovie but it was still 142 MB after the conversion. idk. If anyone has any ideas then be sure to comment below.

Time to Depart

My flight is tomorrow. I'm going to be leaving Boston at 7:30 AM (which means we're leaving from the house around 3:30) and I've got a layover in NYC before flying into Beijing. I've still got a few things to do, like finish packing and printing out my tickets. But other than that, nothing much. I'm way more prepared for China than I was this time last week. Here's a video from a week ago when I had just come home to RI after spending the summer interning in Washington DC.
