Beginner Chinese | My daily routine | napping in China | Comprehensible input | TPRS | Slow Chinese
A teacher talks through her day. She wakes at about nine and has coffee instead of breakfast, then works or studies Spanish until noon. Lunch is fried noodles, followed by a 30-minute nap like many Chinese people. After that comes piano practice, then two Chinese dishes for dinner and bed at midnight.
