speaking ONLY chinese for 24hrs 📒 @uchicago // collegebychloe ep7

thought I'd add a bit of spice to my usual day in the life at uchicago by trying to speak chinese for a full day!

For context, I grew up in Shanghai but attended international schools, and though I am technically native in Chinese/Mandarin, the last time I spoke Chinese more than English was 2019 summer when I interned in Beijing -- since then I've only ever used Chinese + English = Chinglish

to chinese-speakers: sorry for the weird accent and sh*ty vocab 🙃
