 I am now in Costa Rica doing my MA in International Peace Studies.
Although I live in a small town in San Jose, I have had some opportunities
to use my Chinese. I hope to keep up my Chinese somehow and visit Beijing
sometime ;)

I miss China and my ACC friends so much! I am hoping to go back after my graduation in 2007.

I'm still working on my East Asian M.A. at Indiana University. I'll be using my Chinese to complete my M.A. Thesis. I should be done with my studies in August '06, and then get a job and become a productive member of society!

I took a semester of Chinese at Yale in the fall, and I will be returning to Beijing this summer in order to do an internship with Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide, as a part of Yale's Bulldogs in Beijing Program. I'm very excited to be returning to Beijing this summer!  I look forward to reuniting with a lot of you soon!

Completed a semester of contemporary Chinese literature, probably going to be in the South China region (anywhere from HK to Hangzhou to Shanghai) for the summer of 2006 speaking a lot of Mandarin. 

Luce, Matt • mdluce@gmail.com
 I think have adapted poorly to life in America, since I have more  Chinese friends these days than regular friends. I am graduating this  year from Oberlin College, and having a baby with my girlfriend  Venus, who I met while attending ACC. You are all invited to the  shower in November, or else maybe I'll see you in Hong Kong, where I  will be working this summer.
