Not sure where to study in China? Beijing? Shanghai? Is there anywhere else?

This article gives some good info about making that ever-so difficult choice.

another interesting entry from Dan about Chinese vocab I haven't learned yet.

He talks about "The Eight Triograms" or Bagua - and explains how bagua has taken on a new meaning these days.

Good, useful stuff!
