Ember,
Love the picture of you in Shanghal. Real dyky kewl!
How's the dialect in Shanghai? I've heard that eveything's pronouced slightly different and that makes it difficult for even chinese folks (from different regions) to understand each other.
Of course, it's your good musical ears that even allows you to catch and adjust to the slight tonal variations of the chinese language in the first place, but I wonder how easily it is to adapt as a foreigner to the different dialects as well.
Also as a side note, I love reading your posts and I'm also happy that you are accomplishing an exquisit dream. Cheers...Zan
