Just enjoy, it, if things dont go right make a plan B always, and always search for new paths and places, dotn stick to the same boring schedule, there is a lot to do . GO forth and explore.

Mix, talk and communictae with everyone you can, the chinese wnat to talk so you might as well join them yet stay on your toes for the overly-inquistive ones. I had friends in the market, I smiled at students, made some very good friends, spoke to almost every taxi drtiver when I had the chance, and hung out a lot still,you'll learna lot the more you move. The int.office speaks english so no problems there, beginner chinese courses are in english, intermediate - half in half or like my teacher fully in chinese. Its one of the best places to learn the language as it isnt as developed as the larger cities, with less foreigners and less to do, hence you become a local in a few weeks too.

At750 yuan per month for a self- contained room(bathroom, sink, hot plate); by European standards it was okay, but on a shoe string in China it was a tad bit too expensive as in the city with the right contacts and agents you can get a two bedroom flat at a very nice location (far away from school). Beats the aim of student accomodation (price), yet on campus we foreign students lived together on the same floor and had a blast.

Wu yue Hua- to the taxi driver( The Mayflower) is the base to meet othere froeigners in the city, with less than a thousand ( a pretty small number for China).It is half owned by a Canadian and is one of the trendiest amongst the locals, yet you might want to spread your wings and got o somewhere much laid back and cool- Hotel california, Denver bar fit into this category. Felix for a loud night(not too good but huge)
