This is the first time to be in Beijing in 16 years. I tried to be as hopeful as I could to start in this trip.
The air was not as bad as I thought. The bedroom was clean and neat. The most impressive thing was that the taxi driver warmly welcome us to be in Beijing.
"So you guys are coming as a group?"
"Yes, we are volunteering at the olympics."
"This is really very great. Thank you for coming. You guys come despite of the long journey." he said it warmly.
"This is a very meaningful summer for you guys."
His attitude impresses me the most which probably makes me to believe that the creepy chinese culture is actually improving. People will become more educated with training, even though it may take a long time, even though people are still jamming in front of you when you're lining up for something.
We found out that we need to work from 8am till 11pm on alternate days. It's a good 15 hours of work. Let's be hopeful. Wish I can make good use of this precious experience here.
The journey starts tomorrow at 8:30am. Sleep early is the key.
