TB-free!

Just got back after three hours at a hospital - in order to get a visa extension (the student visa is only for 90 days), we all have to take x-rays to prove we don't have TB. The program sent someone with us, but it was still pretty stressful dealing with hospital red tape when the people don't speak a whole lot of English. We took a bus there, which was a first for me (we take the metro a lot, but dealing with the buses is far more intimidating). It was rush hour, so we just barely squeezed in, and I had the good fortune of getting stuck in the doors as they opened and closed. Not the best first impression, but at least I don't have TB!
